All bloodlusted. Fight in a city. Who is left standing?

carver9
Colossus.

CosmicComet
I think I'll go with Rhino.

They are all pretty comparable in strength, so their fists won't do each other in easy.

But Rhino's horn could be fatal.

StiltmanFTW
Yeah, even non-Serpent horn had some pretty crazy piercing feats.

juggernaut74
He stabbed depowered Juggernaut with his horn, though I don't think Rhino was at his normal strength levels at the time.

StiltmanFTW
Yeah, he might've been amped.

Stabbing Fixit is a more legit feat.

juggernaut74
I just remember KM always saying that Rhino was amped during that fight but I don't recall that being stated in the comic though he clearly was different there so it might have been true.

As for the fight it comes down to Thing and Colossus which imo is as close as it gets. I'm gonna back Colossus because I think he's tougher overall.

deathslash
I'm gonna give this to the thing. Ben has better pain tolerance imo.

Damborgson
The Rhino. I'd almost argue he's the strongest of the bunch too.

juggernaut74
Then you are on crack.

StiltmanFTW
Hey, Rhino has feats like sending Nova (Rider) to the orbit or fighting Savage Hulk for days.

And he's been working out since then, has become more ruthless too.

juggernaut74
Rhino's got some good feats but he don't have the pure lifting feats that Colossus and Thing have. That's not so say he's not in their league.

Key word: almost.

And he threw Logan. Rhino did it with a punch.

One Big Mob
I like how none of Things feats count on the forum. Rhino did good against so and so one time... he wins.

Lets ignore how Thing has done against Hulk, Thor, Namor, Surfer. He also did incredibly well against Colossus with the Juggernaut amp. Thing is one of those guys who routinely punches above his weightclass much like Spider-Man. He has better feats in every category than these guys. And probably lesser lows than Colossus too.

He beat Namor during AVX in the deep.

Do you have a scan of Rhino punching Nova? For some reason I thought he rammed him.

But yes, sadly, it canonically happened. It was also stated on panel that he punches harder than Namor, wasn't it?

During a New Mutants issue a single Nimrod knocked out Namor iirc. Colossus was smashing them while it took like the combined effort of 5 of them to overpower him.

It'd be like me talking up a guy with muscular dystrophy and saying things like "He once walked for a full 2 minutes without collapsing" and "He once picked up a whole 3 ring binder full of printed off recipes" and talking like that has merit against Ted Bundy in his prime. Thing Bundy might not be the toughest cookie out there, but he's come out on top against people far superior to Muscular Dystrophy Rhino.

That was after a lengthy fight, Aleksei was already worn out and overheating.

And it's not like Colossus and Grimm weren't hurt by similar strikes.

Piotr's charge was stopped with a single kick by Storm, he also f*cking coughed:

He had the Cyttorak energies stored in his body... powered down, but still stick out tongue Still found a way to go to sleep, btw. Iirc, a fall from the plane took him out, something that teenage Colossus was able to walk away from ease... same teenage Colossus that failed to even slow Rhino down shifty

Yeah, Rhino's got plenty of bad showings. But he also has plenty of good ones... like the orbit feat, beating Fixit, fighting Savage for days, etc.

Supermutant
remember this battle, Rhino did okay before wussin out.

I liked it when he gored Thor with that serpent tooth horn or whatever, he should have kept that.

Clearly he wasn't using it then but that is a bit of a lowest of the low showings for Colossus.

Sort of okay. Landed two blows. But yeah, he got props from Wolverine, who kinda thought of him as of a Roughouse-lv sparring partner.

Still better than Grimm, who lands a cheapshot on Logan only to get one-shotted in return...

thumb up

Who knows, maybe he still has that horn stashed in his closet or something. We should ask Slott laughing out loud

His regular horn has pierced Fixit and hurt somewhat Savage Hulk.

Also managed to stab Depowerednaut, but as stated, he was likely operating above his normal power levels then. Mutated into a wererhino creature or whatever.

The heart force kicks in for every fight Ben loses against anyone. It's a force that saves face.

"Oh Ben got defeated by Daredevil! He is one of the best fighters in the world and we all know even a drunk fetus knows how to throw a punch better than Ben! He showed a lot of heart!"

"Oh Hulk ko'd Ben with a pinky! It's amazing that he didn't get disintegrated by Hulk breathing too hard, he showed a lot of heart!"

What comic is this from? I want to think the only time Rhino and Little Jimmy Fought was back in the old Secret Wars, but that art screams early 90's.

Alpha Flight Special from 1992.

And they didn't fight in Secret Wars.

Flyattractor
Ah Good Old 1992...Right before the EXTREME Era got started.

Good Times for Comics.

Supermutant
About the thing/rhino fight--neither really wanted to fight. Miracle Man hypnotized both of them but Thing came out of it shortly after Rhino rammed into Thing's bus. Plus Rhino didn't want to fight period as he was suppose to be getting help to remove the surgically attached Rhino skin and turn back human. So while Thing looked better and was in control, the Rhino was hypnotized for most of it and then he didn't want to fight.

Though of course it makes sense. Half of the arseholes in comics are worse than anything in the real world. Yet if you put a Nazi in a comic, they are supposed to be the absolute worst.

Bryne snuck a fast one in there

Yeah, nazis would be lowtime villains compared with the sh_t that routinely goes down on comicdom. I'm kind of wondering what those Skrulls actually pulled off in that comic to afford the comparison though.

The last time the F4 met the Skrulls though they aged Thing, Sue and Reed and Johnny had a little meltdown

The arc where Thing fought Colossuskrull was also the same arc where Gladiator did this:

not sure i agree with that. MOST (certainly there are villains/enemies who can be said to have done worse) villains in comics tend to have some rationale for what they do and have never achieved the widespread evil the nazi party achieved. there really isn't a rationale for what the nazis did to the jews, and genocide is a big deal, even in comics (look at some of the truly evil events in x-books over the last 3 decades). factor in how many jewish deaths the nazis were responsible for (say 2 million to be very conservative) and there aren't many 'villains' out there who can equal the real world evil of the nazis.

One Big Mob
A lot of what the nazis did was hyperbolized. A lot of the Juden died from starving to death from the bombings. And we don't even have ovens now on the levels of what were supposedly burning hoards of Juden to ashes. Same as the supposed gas chambers were sealed off by old school classroom doors... which is not the way you would want to stave off severely toxic gasses.

Not saying stuff of this nature didn't happen, but the extent of it seems highly dubious to say the least.


That being said I'd be interested to see big deal villians who you'd place above and below the Nazis assuming all the original stories are true (6 million).

Any villian you can add to the list actually. Skrulls, Thanos, Darkseid, Lex, etc

Great post. And much needed.

And let's be honest, villains in the superhero books often look like puppies in comparison. They rarely achieve their goals and do minimum damage if they do.

You even have the Juggernaut, the Kingpin, Doctor Octopus, Magneto and Victor von Doom crying together in front of the remains of World Trade Center. Magnus is even seen helping emergency services there.

leonidas
the numbers can be fudged--i've seen some sources say that over the 4 years upwards of 20 million jews died from one thing or another as a result of the targeted nazi campaign. even if we say somewhat less than 2 million, that is....incomprehensible.

comic villains tend to be written in ways that often make them...likable. even the "most" evil. there of course is nothing mitigating or likable about the nazis. it would need to be villains who were responsible for the deaths of millions. i dunno. the ones you mentioned i guess want humanity enslaved or dead so...sure they would count. cosmic villains or other races seem less evil though for some reason. the nazis were distinctly human, so to view any villain as being THAT evil they would need to be human villains imo. red skull, obviously. joker? doesn't have the large scale impact though. i dunno. hard to compare any comic villain with something so horrifically real life.

it's rare when a comic villain does anything TRULY horrific. most of the time feats and even character is mitigated (the world trade center is a very good example). and again, it's almost impossible to compare comics to real world for obvious reasons.

I'd imagine the lack of genocide is because most want to rule, rather than just wipe out everyone.

Though the 9/11 issue was ****ing weird, I thought.

Magneto giving a damn about humans dying in 9/11 was horrendously cringey.

Eichhorst was my favorite character in The Strain

Fighting at full potential Colossus takes this.

leonidas
you're right of course--which is the same reason that "they were doing a job" is not a mitigating factor.

but you brought up a fair point. i was looking at the nazis and their achievements as a whole. i could focus on hitler as the (driving) architect i suppose. but you bring up thanos. again, not relatable. like bringing up mephisto. even the skrulls are a stretch for me. you said who do i view as being as evil as the nazis in the comic world. neither of those fit my eye, though skrulls more than thanos i guess. it would need to be someone human, as i said. even kletus is crazy/insane. it's another reason i hesitated to add joker. red skull is also the only villain i can recall off the top of my head holding a gun to a baby's head.... hard to get more evil.

honestly, i dunno. imo the list is pretty short. using the nazis as a whole, and finding a villain who is as evil, or more so? tough call, again, imo. /shrug

Again, this argument is sort of "they suck at being evil" or "have stronger opposition" but many evil characters would do crazy stuff if left unimpeded. Extinction events routinely happen in comicdom that's the kind of stuff I was referring. I agree most villains appear to be random crooks, but that doesn't counterbalance the genocides that were barely avoided in a scale of who does greater evil. I mean, WW2 happened for several years, but individual attacks and events cannot compare with the Annihilation wave (for example). That kind of sh_t happens in comics every other year.

Kang is not mitigated, he has commited genocide on panel with permanent consequences. Same with Ultron. Same with Thanos etc.

I mean, WW2 happened for several years, but individual attacks and events cannot compare with the Annihilation wave (for example). That kind of sh_t happens in comics every other year.

Kang is not mitigated, he has commited genocide on panel with permanent consequences. Same with Ultron. Same with Thanos etc.

kang is a better example--since he's human. ultron? thanos? mephisto? darkseid? not human so have different standards imo.

as for the sauron scan--i don't consider that 'evil' in the sense you're saying ds, ONLY because if sauron has the tech to do it, how many other characters in comics could do the same? how many people could thor/ss heal if they used their power to the fullest? i see the "cancer issue" as being one that is simply irreconcilable in a comic setting. given the tech/magic in play, ALL suffering should likely be curable in a comic setting--ss alone could likely rewrite the genetic code of the planet. imagine if he and thor teamed up and ss used the hammer to amp his ability? or strange teamed with either one? i just see that situation as different. i agree though--as purely evil characters go, sauron is pretty high on the list. thumb up

T'Challa already HAS the cure for cancer and he's refusing to share it with the world. Just because Wakanda fears it might get weaponized or some shit.

And neither Panther nor his people are the smartest inhabitants of Marvel Earth.

leonidas
yeah, that's a perfect example. thumb up

But that's the thing. Not only CAN he do it (like T'Challa or whatever) - he knows he can, and actively wants to mutate and then enslave people.

At least BP fears weaponisation or whatever weak excuse the writers tried to think of when they wrote themselves into a corner.

It's like seeing a kid drop their ice cream and cry...and not only do you have the means to buy them another ice cream, you get them addicted to crack and then enslave them.

How did a thread about three of the most basic ass bricks out there turn into this terrible discussion about extents of evil?

StiltmanFTW
I have no idea, it seems like you have a rare talent for making threads, CC.

leonidas
shrug blame bran?

i resent the terrible discussion part though. it was...passably deep by kmc standards i thought, but yeah, def off-topic. consider the case closed.

StiltmanFTW
Best threads happen to be filled with off-topic.

What does an American (Rhino), a Juden (Thing), and a Russian (Colossus) have in common? That's right, Germany. CC knew what he was doing.

Aren't you a teacher Leon? You have to teach these kids to open their eyes and realize that potentially all conversations can be about Nazis. Are you teaching kids about storms and lightning bolts and not letting them see the signs about The SS and the Stormtroopers?

Will you speak about your breakfast of waffles and tell little Timmy Freethinking Heinrich that no, you're not actually speaking about The Luftwaffe and that he's off topic and offensive, or will you let him being able to see for the first time without sunglasses?

Let those kids breath Leon. Let them atme an der frischen luft.

Look man, all I'm saying is those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Without this conversation and without the schooling, you could be indirectly responsible for creating a Hitler army, where every soldier was the next generation of Hitler. Stow your class about waffles and storms every now and then and let these kids in on the real teaching lesson. Nazis

I'm glad CC created this thread about Nazis to remind us all here at this failing nation of KMC. We could really use a superpower to come in and take over.

That's all.

leonidas
you should really consider another name change. nietzsche swift? branzsche? one big nietzsche? something.

One Big Mob
I can't change my name. We've all been razzle dazzled

I thought the Hitler/Goebbels paraphrase in my sig was enough though. srug

leonidas
didn't know that. lol and it's a start. thumb up

StiltmanFTW
You didn't know that Raz left us more than 2 years ago?

leonidas
i didn't know he couldn't change names. no expression

StiltmanFTW
Ah, yeah. Because that would require exploring KMC outside of CBvF, a nigh impossible task.

Former kmc mods will start turning up dead in a few years.

Bada will be the last hold out against the returning scourge of Raz.

StiltmanFTW
Oh, shit.

Can globals even make new mods? Like, who promoted Newjak?

lol i was a regular in the gdf a couple years back but there are some REAL freaks in that thing. thumb up

Yeah, I know. Staying away from it. It's a real shithole with an incredible ban rate.

I enjoy bagpipe music. Hope I'm not the only one.

Which of these three has the most appreciation for bagpipes you think?

CC please don't derail the thread

As a teen Colossus was strong enough to get a win over Thing in a armwrestling match.

Look at poor Colossus hanging on to Rhino for dear life

ShadowFyre
Or raping his arm. I can't tell.

Rhino > Spider-Man + Invisible Woman + Colossus (+ maybe even Mr. Fantastic + Human Torch)
