When this new Dark Avengers team was announced I put my money on Bendis jobbing out Gorgon to Daredevil. I'm glade it's not Daredevil who will beat him, being jobbed out to Iron Fist instead is slightly more respectable... but still an embarrassment. Gorgon should win this fight in two - three panels with ease.

Just from what was actually drawn the fight should ended instantly. Gorgon is strong enough to ko Danny with an up kick like that... probably should have killed him. In the third panel he could have unsheathed his claws directly into Danny's face. In the last two panels he could cut that arm of... with the arm he is using to block. If he dropped that arm from the position its in, he takes of Danny's arm, we the set up for the over hand claw slash? Why is doing that? And this just look at the BS art that was actually drawn. In reality Iron Fist wouldn't be able to land a finger on Tomi, and he'd get one shoted.
But like I said, I'm just counting my blessing that it isn't Daredevil who will kick his ass.

I uncovered the dark secret behind this insane scene. [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Bendis
But if seriously, Bendis is so consistent with the characters I think we're lucky its NOT Spider-man. I have my doubts Bendis is aware of the training Pete recieved or that his spider sense got upgraded. He just randomly has characters beat one another.
EDIT: Gotta give him props for making Norman into such a big baddy though.

Remember when Phobos went toe to toe with Gorgon? Apparently he got a massive upgrade off panel because that's the only way it made sense or whatever. Forgot who was arguing this, but it was pretty hilarious.
Toe to toe makes it sound like it was an even fight, it wasn't, Gorgon wrecked him. They locked swords once. Phobos tagged Gorgon. Their swords broke. Then Gorgon killed Phobos.

Skrank sees this and he thinks of how he can spin this to best benefit Wolverine, i.e. a one sided stomp in Gorgon's favor. I'm fine with it, everyone does it to some extent when they have a stake, but at least be reasonable about this shit.
