Civil War Cap

Who wins

who inn the world is Shelob

the Spider spirit in Return of the King who attacked Frodo

Cap would win, imo.

A few hits from the edge of his shield to Shelob's head would be devastating, he could also easily remove limbs with a single swipe of the shield as he's cut through high tensile strength steel cables with it. (CA:CW)

I'd also question whether Shelob's paralyzing poison would work on Cap considering his body's superhuman ability to filter and neutralize toxins/inebriating compounds. (CA:TFA)

Sam would've won without the light.

If Sam can do it, so can Cap.

I was going to point out something similar, but you beat me to it. Captain America >>>>> Samwise Gamgee. So, if he could give Shelob problems, Steve should win rather easily IMO.

For all the reasons Robtard mentioned, Steve comes out on top and looks good doing it.

Cap stomps.

In fairness, Shelob's weakness is light and the Phial contains the most pure and powerful light there is.

Cap still wins tho.

Yeah, but Steve has his pure inner Cap light, fueled by the power of being a century-old virgin, that shines through.

Seriously though, if the guy can casually stomp a Quinjet (which is a large, bulletproof, flying opponent with a mounted minigun), I can't see a giant spider posing too much of a threat, unless Steve acts like an idiot, which is highly unlikely for an in-character Cap.

IIRC he crippled one of Shelob's legs and was holding his own pretty well.

Yes but to be honest most of the LOTR Badguys were pretty unimpressive. Make this Cap vs The Balrog and then we got a fight.

LOTR was too influecned by the Hercules TV show crews that kind of did the fights and stunt work in the movies.
