DCnU Superman vs Gladiator

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.



Nibedicus
Gladiator has been sent to DCnU Earth to test Superman's mettle. Battle happens in a sunny day. Gladiator is at peak confidence levels. Confidence cannot be lowered. Battle in the middle of the Pacific

Both characters fight in character. No BFR.

GO!

DCNU SM is a continuation of his former self powerwise, perhaps stronger, and he wins.

Well, how exactly is Superman going to beat Gladiator (and vice versa to Glads supporters)?

Post what you think might happen and go "feat" to "feat" to prove this. smile

celeyhyga17
Probably would have said Gladz a few months ago, but DCnU Clark has been racking it up.. Enuff so that I can safely say he's pretty much pre-boot level..

Clark wins..

As Gladz is about to enter earth's atmosphere looking for a challenge, his teeth start to rattle from haymakers Clark is laying on Orion.

He thinks otherwise and high-tails out of there.. His last thought, "Fcuk, no!. I ain't gonna be on the receiving end of that!"

^ that reminds me: imo, gladiator 5 shotted that small planet (no atmosphere), not 3 shotted

1 - he slams into the planet, 2/3/4 all punches, then the 5th punch caused the onomatopoeia

Carver, that's a warning for your lowballing. Even Bada won't disagree with you being banned at this point, tbh.

I'm sure Abhi needs to be warned for coming on too strong, but I didn't read the whole thread.

because he's applying "mountain level" as a maximum, when the comic blatantly shows that they weren't.

Wow...just wow. Don't see where I lowballed but whatever. Don't see how Curry can get away with lowballing Hulk every day without a warning or H1 lowballing Thor along with tons of other characters every day without a warning. I state something that is shown in a comic and I get warned. Ain't that some crap. There are people here that needs more attention towards them than I do. I guess until I get banned, some light will shed on the other posters who lowballs every day. I guess it has something to do with superman. Could be the reason I tend to get warnings all of the time.

LOL! I feel ashamed right now. I never really read that scan carefully of Gladiator busting the planet. The narration called it a lifeless ROCK that has WEATHERED the death of GALAXIES. So that means it was very small, with no atmosphere, and was probably more fragile than normal due to all the abuse it received from dying galaxies.

But it's still an impressive feat by far. Just not on the level I once thought it was.

Breaking the bonds is impressive too.

Resistance against heat is irrelevant in this fight.

Superman bench pressed the Earth. It takes more force to lift a planet against Earth like gravity than it takes to destroy it. That feat proved that Superman has the necessary strength to destroy Earth.

As far as this fight I can't say as I don't know much about DcNU Superman except the benchpressing feat. So Gladiator could possibly win here. Not sure yet.

Zack Fair
Gladiator wins simply because he has more history and a plethora of feats to draw upon.

52 Superman has the feats to make it a fight though.

The narrator made it plain as day that the planet gladiator destroyed was large. When he said the term "rock" he was telling the readers that it was very durable, backed by the way it survived while others were destroyed.

I swear I never saw "Lifeless Rock" before. This is my first time. The planet had no atmosphere (I didn't notice that either). That means its gravity was too small to sustain one. Low gravity = low mass.

Any heavenly body object is large. Who are you trying to fool? Hell if Glads destroyed the moon then that's still higher than any average high herald strength feat.


Other's were not destroyed as you see other planets in the same scan.

Regardless of the fact, weathering abuse makes you less durable (not more).

Guys, who gets warned (like, real warnings) is up to the mods and the mods alone. discussing it is a form of backseat modding and isn't allowed.

Just to be clear, I never agreed that H1A8 was lowballing (this time); I just stated that lowballing is lowballing regardless of character.

I agree less durable is somewhat BS but I'm thinking in terms of real science and not comic logic.

In comics, a character or object can have the same power level despite having used a lot or have taken much abuse.

They are like cartoons in a way. In one scene Tom (in Tom and Jerry) gets blasted by dynamite and in the next scene he is as good as new.

Every planet in comics can be "potentially be a small planet" as much as it can "potentially be a huge planet". There is no definitive proof of either.

It IS however, somewhat an accepted consensus that planets SHOULD be larger than moons and from the looks of the art, it even looks like the damned planet was large enough to have several moons orbiting it.

True.

Superman started off strong, crushing Hal and tagging Flash. Clearly a rookie Hal, though.

I finally broke down and decided to catch up with DC, and I'm still not getting how all this fits together, considering Hal in Green Lantern is "current", experienced Hal, yet you see what looks like the same team from the JLA comics meeting Hal and Sinestro's replacement..

The scan also outright states that the planet supported life as well.

It is a known scientific fact that very small planets cannot sustain an atmosphere.
The planet had no atmosphere. So it we should assume it had the largest mass possible that cannot support an atmosphere.

Except, he supports his notion that its a "small" planet with stuff from the narrative. It's not just a random assumption.

As for the so called "moons", in the first panel we see Gladiator flying past tons of objects floating in same. Quite simply those appear to be planets in the distance, not sure why the ones in the panel with Glads punching the planets couldnt be other planets as well.

Anyway, I'm not arguin that he is right. But I feel heis making a compelling case.

Correct! I didn't see that either til now. So two conclusions:

1. In comics an Earth sized planet can be without an atmosphere.
2. Races can live on planets with no atmosphere.
3. Or the artist incompetently drew the planet without an atmosphere.

It has already been stated that the planet once supported life meaning that it once was most likely big enough to sustain an atmosphere.

Planets can lose their atmosphere thru outside forces (like getting sucked by a stronger gravitational pull or something extreme, like say, surviving a galaxy's destruction).

Instead of coming up with silly conclusions, maybe you should read the entire scan and use a little deductive reasoning first?

And where the hell did you come up with "no atmosphere" in the first place? I hope, not in the statement: "There is no sound in the airless void of space" because that is talking about "the airless void of space" and not the planet.

1. Certainly possible.
2. Another possibility, but unlikely and shouldn't be concluded w/o something on-panel that aludes to this.
3. OR you don't look at the comics you like to BS about because if you based it on artist's drawing, 4th panel from the top certainly DOES look like it has a blue hue outline that may be interpreted as an atmosphere.

1. agreed
2. we many times have seen beings on planets and moons without atmosphere in comics. They can talk and everything lol. But your assessment is correct. This is more unlikely here.
3. Well in the earlier panel we see ZERO atmosphere. So

a. The blue hue in the 4th panel was something else. Maybe reflected light or just art to highlight the planet.

b. it was an atmosphere. But the artist messed up and didn't draw it the first time.

The theory wasn't really silly since you don't see an atmosphere in the first scene of the planet while at the SAME TIME the narration says "lifeless rock".

It doesn't prove it. Proof is not always an option in comics. That is why we use evidence and reasoning to convince (not prove). I didn't notice the talk about a race of beings nor did I notice the blue hue in the 4th panel that could possibly be an atmosphere.

Take those 2 things away and the evidence supporting the planet not having an atmosphere is indisputable, do you agree?

It doesn't prove it. Proof is not always an option in comics. That is why we use evidence and reasoning to convince (not prove). I didn't notice the talk about a race of beings nor did I notice the blue hue in the 4th panel that could possibly be an atmosphere.

Take those 2 things away and the evidence supporting the planet not having an atmosphere is indisputable, do you agree?

Seriously, how does any of this crap even make sense in your head?

Lol... you proved me wrong with Gladiator tanking it... after being hit by the blast, it fatigued him. Not what I'm disputing. What I am saying is...Gladiator contained the blast. The previous scan after Gladiator is being hit is... Gladiator strikes and a star is born. This scan from Reeds on mouth states "the blast is being contained", which it was being contained because Gladiator was containing it.

http://s1143.photobucket.com/user/carver9/media/GladiatorSolarSystem_zpsc0b32ca3.jpg.html actually, we can safely conclude that was caused by whatever mechanism the skrulls activated just before gladiator hit the ship. it rigged the ship like a bomb.

As for the so called "moons", in the first panel we see Gladiator flying past tons of objects floating in same. Quite simply those appear to be planets in the distance, not sure why the ones in the panel with Glads punching the planets couldnt be other planets as well.

Anyway, I'm not arguin that he is right. But I feel heis making a compelling case.

Actually, if you've read the scan, you'll see that the narrative DOESN'T support his silly "too small to have an atmosphere" theory as the comic already states and I quote "The race w/c it spawned....", meaning that the planet was once inhabited.

Like I said, the art is vague, but it can be interpreted either way. You say distant planets, I say moon (IMO looks more like moons than distance planets to me, but w/e). H1'd like you to think of the planet as small but there is as much evidence of it being huge as there is evidence of it being small. W/c is my point. Art is vague and we should not base any conclusions on it but use narratives to support our theories/interpretations.

How can his argument is that "the planet has no atmosphere, thus it is small" be "compelling" when he has presented ZERO evidence to prove this theory?

It wasn't the skrulls that contained the blast and if it was their ship that exploded, then they would have died. Remember, the Xmen showed up to battle Gladiator in that same comic but it wasn't truly the Xmen, it was the same Skrulls Gladiator hawked down (that also hit him with that solar system destroying blast).

Why do I need to show you him containing it when we clearly see him in the heart of the blast and the narrator saying "Gladiator strikes and a star is born)? Clear as day.

It wasn't silly in the light of not noticing the race of beings being spawned. I agree when it was pointed out.

The evidence to support the statement lies in the fact that small planets have no atmosphere while bigger planets do. So your statement, "he has presented ZERO evidence to prove this theory" is false.

you seem to have the cronological order of this entirely messed up. i havent read the issue so I need it spelled out.

what caused the blast that threatened the solar system? where is it shown that gladiator was the one to contain it? did he hit the ship in the starlike explosion afterward? was he releasing the energy you think he contained?

That's correct. My reasoning is still sound (sound doesn't mean I'm correct though).
Silly means that you make a ludicrous claim while KNOWING all of the facts.

You said I provided zero evidence. This is clearly false since I stated a scientific fact supporting me. Are you saying that's a theory? If so then it has been proven the minimum mass a planet needs to sustain an atmosphere. I don't know the exact mass but it's certainly more than the moon but less than Earth.

The mechanism is what caused the blast.

By the time Gladiator left the blast (after containing it), the Skrulls was already on Earth.

They didn't need to survive it because they was on Earth during the time Gladiator flew out of the blast. That's why Gladiator attacked the Fantastic Four, he thought the Skrulls was posing as them.

He didn't hit the ship because again, the Skrulls was on Earth. Why would they have to show it when they quoted what happened during that instance: Gladiator strikes and a Star is born. A couple of scenes after this, Reed views the beam from outer space and states that the blast is being contained but again, by the time all of this happens, the Skrull is on Earth and Gladiator flew 100 times the speed of light to catch up to them (remember, their goal was to kill the fantastic four).

Your asking me to show you Gladiator containing the blast, how about you prove the Skrulls took place in containing said blast.

Are you desperate or what? You got proven wrong and now you're attempting to use semantics to at least get one thing right to make yourself feel better and still manage to fall flat on your face. READ: "Zero evidence TO PROVE..."

You stated a theory and tried to use a scientific phenomena that loosely applies to the situation, that proves nothing. Nice try cropping what I said to change its context, tho.

You got proven wrong. Move on, buddy. This is so sad...

It's not possible without some energy manipulation or telekinesis. The core is still fiery gases and plasma. Nothing in which to grab on to physically. It's almost like trying to pick up a lake and move it while grabbing on to some water. But at least water is closer to solid than gases or plasma is.

JakeTheBank
Several characters with super strength can "grab" energy or other normally intangible forms of matter.

Hulk and an energy shield.

Point is, Gladiator containing a super nova with his bare hands makes no sense, just like a lot of strength based cheese feats.

How many times has a character literally punched through space?
