I like this thread idea, so we're focusing it some (otherwise I'd have to close it). Use the following template:
A. Most wins (total):
B. Most losses (total):
C. Best winning percentage (minimum 20 fights):
D. Worst winning percentage (min. 20 fights):
E. Most wins without a loss ever:
This could be a good thread, but more direction is needed.
You have to break this down:
A. Most wins (total):
B. Most losses (total):
C. Best winning percentage (minimum 20 fights):
D. Worst winning percentage (min. 20 fights):
E. Most wins without a loss ever:
PIS instances, I would assume, do count...a win is a win and a loss a loss any way you cut it.
...another number could be subbed in for 20, but that seemed decent.
A. One of the big names. Batman or Spider-Man likely. Supes actually wouldn't get this because Pre/Post Crisis Supes steals about half the wins away from the total number of wins for "Superman". And Wolverine hasn't been as big as he is currently for decades like the others, so total appearences hurts him.
You think? he does tend to get beat up on a fairly regular basis (before eventually winning the comeback fights)
Then again, if you count all the second rate fights with guys like the Kangaroo or the Scorcher which sometimes just happen in the middle of other stories and are almost always complete walkovers then you might have a case.
But, if you count every single Hand/Ninja/Hydra/AIM soldier/member as a separate fight in this, then Wolverine probably has the highest number of wins as he seems to go through a few dozen every couple of comics.
Captain America probably has him beat on the win/loss ratio though
Ratio/percentage, sure. But I'm talking total wins and losses, both of which he likely has. Crisis messes with the totals of the DCU, and no one else has nearly as many appearences as Pete.
He's the Brett Favre of comics (Americans will get this...Scoob can ignore it ).
Possibly, but it's still a severe handicap. If you include PC, he and Supes are clearly in the lead, but without it it's hard to make a case for it. Pete's been around since '62. That's 20+ years to make up, and he's had at least 3 dedicated titles to his name for over a decade now, and obviously a lot of team appearences, limited series, and crossover appearences.
