As far as the Skyfather tier goes:

If we break it down into levels, we'd also have to break down the Trans tier down into levels as well. Which would undoubtedly cause more work and debating, but if that's what we're going for, by all means.

I know sweet **** all about most trans characters, so I'm not exactly thrilled about the idea of breaking it up.

KMC Comic Book Tiers

Okay, so, much like the original thread here, this is a new version that we're opening for the people on the VS forum. This thread should serve as a guideline to anyone that wants to make a match, and can't decide if character X is a match for character Y.

================

Rules:

================

This is a GENERAL power listing. We don't care how fast, how versatile or how strong your favourite character is; it's an averaging out of power.
This list DOESN'T account for PIS or prep, but can for CIS/CIP.
Different versions of characters, if required, will be specified in brackets.

Now, for anyone that doesn't know what these terms mean, here's a quick explanation (credit to Digi):

- Trans - Tier was created to represent anything above Surfer (who is generally considered the top of high herald) and below Skyfather. It is the only tier that is defined on either extreme by actual characters.
- Street - Generally refers to characters without powers, but not without exceptions. A skilled martial artist would likely be street. A skilled martial artist who can amp himself to metahuman levels would not. It is possible to be without a "power" and be above street (for an example: Karate Kid).

Meta and Herald are pretty self-explanatory.

Making changes: This list is NOT perfect (and is a little out-dated). People are going to disagree. To that end, people will be allowed to recommend that certain characters be moved up and down. With enough support, or mod approval, characters can be moved. All final changes to the list must be approved by mods, so no trolling votes will be accepted.

Okay, without further ado:

================

The List:

================

DCnU Aquaman is at least low herald imo.

WBH & WWH are high herald imo.

Sorcerer Supreme Dr. Strange is high herald imo.

Edit: I don't see Captain America or Wolverine. I think Cap has high street and Wolverine as low meta.

Maybe Superior Spidey needs moved up to mid mete?

WBH/HotM Hulk should be Trans, imo.

Another question for you guys: How high should a majority need to be to push the vote through?

Disagree with WWH to High Herald.

Think he should be in mid.
