To Cosmic Cube:
First off, let’s talk about Thor. I specifically said that Thor was not to possess the Odin Force. “As the Lord of Asgard, Thor possesses the Odin force, which enables him to tap into near-infinite resources of cosmic and mystical power, enhancing all his abilities.” (Handbook 2004) Thor with the Odin force would give Galactus, Thanos, the Phoenix Force, and hell even the Celestials a run for their money. The JLA would be proverbially screwed. That’s why Thor should have his normal abilities just like everyone else on the JLA and Avengers teams. I didn’t bulk up Superman (i.e. Superman Prime) or Green Lantern (i.e. Ion) or Wonder Woman (i.e. Goddess of Truth) to an extent that they would be nearly impossible to beat. Thor should have only have his own normal strengths, powers, and abilities. If you insist on Thor having the Odin Force than I must either add a character with strength to rival his own or supplement a character that is already on the roster with powers to rival the Odin Force that they have previously sustained and/or lost. Thor should only have his normal power levels.
Your entire argument rest on one sole arbitrary fact: Moon Dragon uses her telepathic powers to wipe out any and all that have no protection to telepathic attacks. You’ve stated that Moon Dragon is an Eternal and has superhuman endurance. The Flash’s attacks would be ineffective against her. Right? Wrong. Moon Dragon is NOT an Eternal. Moon Dragon is human. As a young girl she was abducted from Earth and brought to Thano’s home world called Titan. Moon Dragon was never an Eternal. She’s human. According to the site www.avengersassemble.com Moon Dragon was and I quote: “taught to achieve her full human potential by the priests of Titan. She is a superb athlete, surpassing the achievements of any Olympic athlete. She was trained to be as strong as human her size and weight can be: She can lift (press) 400 pounds.” She doesn’t have superhuman endurance. She’s just as durable as Captain America. A few million punches by the Flash means lights out for the telepath. Her telekinetic field would not present a problem. The Flash can simply vibrate through it. If the Flash can vibrate his way into other realities and universes, then he certainly vibrate his way through her TK shield.
The Living Lightening would not present a problem for the Flash. The Flash's body is surrounded by what he calls his "speed force aura". This “speed force aura” protects the Flash from electric attacks. When any speedster uses their power, there’s atmospheric discharge; a side effect of their muscles processing the Speed Force. Ever wonder what those yellow lightening bolts trailing after the Flash are? It’s ambient static electricity. Wally’s connection to the Speed Force enables him to absorb electricity around him. Wally often uses himself as a lightening rod during a dangerous thunderstorm. Electricity is not harmful to the Flash. It’s beneficial. The Flash is like an alkaline battery. His body enables him to absorb static or benevolent electricity around him to boost his speed. He’s done this many times against several opponents such as the Charger, the Weather Wizard, Abra Kadabra, Blacksmith, etc. The Speed Force IS lightening. The Flash is practically invulnerable to it. The Living Lightening would zap the Flash, but his costume (which is made of pure speed force energy) would absorb the charges and implement it into Wally’s velocity. The Flash would say thanks and move on.
Due to the facts above (Moon Dragon has peak human endurance and the Flash would not be harmed by the Living Lightening) the telepathy-knocks-out-all-the-JLA-members theory is nullified. Captain America, the Scarlet Witch, Moon Dragon, Spider-Man, and Spider-Woman are out of the fight. Superman and the others who have no protection against telepathy are alive and kicking. Sue Richards does not have the precognition or reaction time to react to a man traveling at near-lightspeed. Wally does require a few nanoseconds to tap into the Speed Force in order to travel at lightspeed or exceed it. Wally’s normal travel rate is not 150 miles per hour (where the hell did you get that number?) Wally normally travels at a leisurely rate of 800 miles per hour to avoid atmospheric disturbances in the environment. Traveling at near-lightspeed however is not a problem for him during an all-out battle. Sue wouldn’t even know that the Flash is moving to react to him or to trap him for that matter
Once again back to the biological E.M.P. argument. I don’t give a flip if you have a PhD in physics and you work for NASA. It’s a comic book, for God’s sake. Science means nothing in comics! A biological E.M.P may be impossible in our world, but in the DC universe ANYTHING is possible. Why the heck would you argue that a bio E.M.P. is not possible when we’re discussing an Asgardian thunder god with a magic hammer? Science is useless for comic book discussions. Comics are written by people with little to no college education. Once again here it is:
An excerpt from JLA #100 August 2004:
Sister Superior: We're under new management, girl (directed to Faith)... Coldcast
Coldcast unleashes a cloud of energy from his mouth. Several JLAers fall.
Plastic Man : Uh, lemme guess...bad breath ray?
Sister Superior: A biological equivalent of an E.M.P.. Shuts down neurons by rendering electrons inert.
The biological E.M.P. argument has proven and accredited. Coldcast is a Swiss army knife when it comes to energy. In Action Comics #775, Coldcast reduced thousands of Chinese soldiers and a two-mile wide Chinese base in diameter to GRAIN. In Action Comics #779, Coldcast gave Superman a human equivalent of a stroke. Later on he hit him with a "grill-full of red solar radiation". Coldcast juggles different energy types for kid's birthday parties. Coldcast has complete control over the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Gamma waves, microwaves, light waves, etc. are all at his disposal. Do yourself a favor, LOOK for the sources. I’m not your librarian
Iron Man is still vulnerable to E.M.P pulses.
http://www.ironmanarmory.com/armors.html I know of his new armor. Red Skull used an E.M.P. on this supposedly new indestructible armor during the Red Zone and Iron Man fell. Iron Man may have fail-safes to prevent an E.M.P. but certainly not a guarantee. Triumph is a master of magnetism. He can tap into the Earth’s electromagnetic field. A low-level E.M.P. may not work against Iron-Man but a larger scale E.M.P. certainly would work. Iron Man falls in few seconds.
Hourman is 853rd technological being, a “diamond generation intelligent machine colony" whose cells are laced with Miraclo gene biosoftware developed by Tyler Chemorobotics, a company founded by the original Hourman, inventor Rex Tyler. A zap of electricity isn’t going to faze an android with technology that is millions of years into the future. He got thrown into a sun and he survived.
Hourman has complete control of time. He can freeze time over specific areas or overall areas. He can also accelerate a person’s aging process until they grow old and die. He possesses “time-vision” that enables him to know what is going to happen for it happens. It’s perfect. No jumbled images. No mysterious voices. Just the future. Hourman III possesses a biological hard drive that enables him to predict perfectly what is going to happen before it happens. He knew when Hipplotya was going to die. He knew when and how the JLA would defeat Mageddon. He even gave his ancestor (Hourman I) the exact time when he was going to die (6:37 pm) and how he was going to die (cancer). He would know when and how the Avengers would attack before they do. Wonder Man is going to blindside Superman…Hourman warns him and Superman evades the attack and counters. Firestar attempts to blast Green Lantern…Hourman tells GL when, where and how she is going to attack, minutes before Firestar even decides to attack GL. Hourman is a very dangerous threat. Not to mention he can become intangible and invisible. He can also use his time-powers to create portals to various locations.
Sersi is very powerful opponent. But I seriously doubt she would be able to absorb GL’s ring. It’s been tried before and it has failed. Sersi would be one of the last to fall.
Scarlet Witch is not as powerful as I think she is. I’m not underrating her. I fully am aware of what she is capable of. But YOU on the hand of no knowledge of Dr. Fate; you’re underrating him. Dr. Fate is on the same level as Dr. Strange. He’s defeated Neron, Spectre, and even gods themselves. He has eons of experience. He can summon demons, dragons, and otherworldly creatures to do his bidding. He can draw upon vast mystical resources to enhance his powers. He can do pretty much anything. Scarlet Witch is not on his level. The water-barrier spell that Scarlet Witch did during the Red Zone event is parlor trick to Dr. Fate. He once moved the Earth to an entirely different solar system. Scarlet Witch during the Disassembled event created entities out of thin air to attack the Avengers. So what? Dr. Fate can create sentient entities out of thin air too. (JSA #18) Dr. Fate has no limitations. Scarlet Witch has many. According to the Official Handbook Marvel Universe: Avengers: Scarlet Witch’s hex-casting ability has 50% unreliability factor and his limited by her range of sight. Her power’s reliability depends in part upon her physical condition and more so her probability field.” In other words, her powers work half the time! It’s all up to Lady Luck. Scarlet Witch only has reality-altering powers. Dr. Fate possesses all magics including reality-altering magics. Scarlet Witch is out of her league compared to Dr. Fate. It’s like a padawan going up against a Jedi.
