Zarathos vs. Dr Strange.

Who will win, discuss.

Was that Strange at his current level of power? Right now, not many people can mess with the Doc. I seriouly doubt Zarathos is more powerful than the Vishanti. I'm almost certain he isn't.

Can you explain why

Why Zarathos isn't more powerful than the Vishanti? Does it really require explanation?

Well jeez, lets put it this way, one person thinks he is and another thinks he isn't, so you make an explation to prove why, you have argued with jinzin before right?

honestly I'm not too familiar with stranges powers now....like I said when zarathos put strange on the run he did it at half to a quarter of his strength...and the doc strange of that time period held to a stalemate against adam warlock with the infinity gems.....that's some serious amount of power to put on the run....if strange has gotten more powerful than that since....well...just how powerful I ask? cause that's pretty damned impressive.

Did zarathos fight Strange in the dark realm or on earth?
When did any of this happen?

it was on earth...during the godforsaken darkness saga...it was horrible writing (in terms of story) even more horribly drawn...and the well it wasn't much of a fight..it was more like a strange:"everyone lets get the **** out of here right now!" situation.......and it happened on earth.... if it happened in hell...well......I don't even want to think about it....

I'm pretty sure Centurious beat a full strength Zarathos.

centurious had items specifically designed to beat zarathos...and he couldn't even beat him...he just stalemated him.....zarathos wasn't fully powered....his power was already being sapped from mephisto....

wait out of curiosity , is this the character that shuma gorath is in the same universe with?

There's no such thing as bad writing. 😄 Of course Wolverine can beat Lobo.

What issue did he fight Zarathos in?

I remember Z' being able to claim souls and such, human souls.
Strange's soul is immortal and protected by Eternity, I don't know if Z can counter that.

Still, Z' is more powerful than mephisto in hell right???

lol......It wasn't bad...it was beyond concepts like bad.....if you could put bad on steroids this would be it....

I dunno....isn't mephisto's power in hell contingent on something? I mean doesn't it flucuate? in any case he's at least on the same level...and mephisto is scared of him...

...But certainly not more powerful than the Infinity Gauntlet.

Agamotto is above Zarathos. So is Cyttorak, and Watoomb. The Vishanti would be overkill.

Mephisto is overrated, plain and simple. Hulk walked into hell and bitchslapped him.

i think it's slightly contingent on where..in hell? hmmm it's probably debateable......I mean zarathos was supposedly the most powerful existence to roam there back in the day.....but who knows....

True true.

I was just wondering if Z' could steal unhuman souls. Because Strange's soul is no longer human in nearly every aspect.

Z' faught Centurious, and couldn't steal his soul....

Mephisto's power in his realm is nearly absolute, he can grant himself any power he wants. So being on his level is impressive.
