Superman and Wonder Woman vs Gladiator and the Incredible Hulk

I also doubt that WW would get her lasso around him since he's way too fast.

But it IS in his character to show off and do stupid things in battle.

The lasso OFFICIALLY has never been broken. However in the Elseworlds that's another story.

People have managed to wiggle their way out. But writers wised up by having opponents haywired and not just ONE hoop.

Enraged Hulk+Fully confident Gladiator(Pre-crisis superman level)=
Win.

glads if he iz smart will stay close to hulk. therefore makin him a factor. im tellinn if gladz does that then there really iz gonna be very hard fo supes and ww to take this.

gladiator 's powers

Strength Level: Gladiator possesses Class 100 strength, enabling him to lift (press) over 100 tons. The uppermost limit of Gladiator’s strength is unknown. He has proved capable of uprooting the entire 35 floor original Baxter Building, and has boasted to be able to move planets. Possibly Gladiator employs technical means to boost his strength enough to lift (press) beyond what others in the Class 100 strength category can lift.

Known Superhuman Powers: Gladiator is the most powerful known member of the Imperial Guard. In addition to his extraordinary strength, he is virtually invulnerable, and has survived an explosion of nearly nova force uninjured. However, he is vulnerable to certain unspecified wavelengths of radiation.

Gladiator can fly at speeds rivaling those of starships, and can achieve faster than light speeds in hyperspace. He can survive unprotected in the vacuum of outer space, and apparently either does not need to breath or can survive for long periods of time (as when he flies through outer space) without breathing.

Gladiator can project intense heat, possibly infrared radiation, in beams from his eyes. This heat is said to reach temperatures comparable to those produced by stars.

Gladiator himself has claimed to be capable of moving planets and flying through the hearts of stars. He may have been indulging in hyperbole in saying this, for his powers have not been demonstrated to be that great.

Although Gladiator’s Class 100 strength and a large measure of his near-

invulnerability are indeed physical traits, it has been theorized that he covertly employs Shi’ar technology to amplify these powers at times. The technology also enables him to perform other feats: for example, when he uprooted the original Baxter Building, Shi’ar devices prevented the building from crumbling under its own weight. Observing Gladiator’s actions. Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four theorized that Gladiator’s powers were in part psionic, but the theory that Gladiator uses technological aids now appears to be the correct one.

Susan Richards of the Fantastic Four once knocked Gladiator unconscious with her force field when he was momentarily in doubt about the effectiveness of his own powers. Reed Richards hypothesized that Gladiator’s vulnerability to the field was the result of a brief weakening of his will power, and hence of the psionic reinforcement of his resistance to injury. However, it is also possible that Gladiator’s vulnerability to the field was a delayed aftereffect of his earlier exposure to an unknown form of radiation that was apparently capable of killing him.

Amazingly, Hulk is the weak link here. Either Superman or Wonder Woman can use different parts of their arsenal to subdue or get rid of him, then its 2-on-1 on Gladiator. Big problem.

is it seriously just me or is it when ever supes or WW are in a thread they get under estimated and under powered like in the FF vs WW thread? Why does the hulk already get to be fully enraged and glads full confident? Hmmmm is it because they need to be at these levels to even be a problem? I've noticed some seriously DC haters who always seem to put either supes or ww at their weakest or pair them against someone with an enhancement or fully charged. Hmmm if glads really starts to pose a threat and i doubt that against the both of them i say ww uses the godwave and finishes him.

Thats a good point Marvel=DC.

Glads and hulk are too much for Supes and WW. It's not as if hulk hasn't fought and beaten anyone who can fly... Thats ridiculous to think that he's irrelevant in this fight. Anytime anyone fights, or they think that their going to fight, or are with someone who's in a fight their Adrenalin is kick started. He is automatically stronger than WW when it starts so if you think that he's the weak link. IMO your way off base. WW is the weakest of them all in every way. She's faster than The HULK but thats it HULK is much stronger and much more durable. She's slower, weaker, and less durable than Glads by far. Glads out Supes Supes in every way.

Gladiator flys up to WW so unbelievably fast she's taken back and confused before she can blink or knows what has happened she has been flown down to The HULK and she's is in the mist of a unbreakable bearhug by the jolly green giant. Glads tells HULK to rip her head off and he does and now it's 2 on 1 against Supes. But then Glads tells HULK to have a seat and take notes as he gets down to beating Supes down so badly DC has to have another resurrection.

Glads and HULK take this 8/10

wow wow you must know as much about comics as a 8 yearold mr.Stark cause hulk don't start of stronger than WW and unfortunatly he is "The Weakest Link" depending on his "anger" if he starts off supper uber pissed like everyone makes him in their threads than he's stronger than supes or glads either. Speaking of glads i'll admit he may get the first hit when fighting WW but, it's not like she can't take it and give as good as she gets.

Indeed! 😄

"Glads is no one near even remotely close to Pre Crisis Superman. ."

Hes more akin to pre crisis Superman than post crisis.

"That Superman could throw planets, Glads can slowly move a small one. "

And destroy another with only 3 punches. Also pre crisis didnt exactly moved earth by itself in a catwalk either. The one with big chains remember?

He's not even at current Superman level, and WAY off of the ultimate Pre-crisis.

Gladiator can move planets! Even moving one slowly is not a small feat. If you look at the picture at the start of this thread it took Superman, WW, and Green Lanter(?) all together to move the Moon. So how can Gladiator not be stronger than the current Superman?

"He's not even at current Superman level, and WAY off of the ultimate Pre-crisis."

Dont make me laught. Current Superman doesnt have the strenght to destroy a planet with punches less alone move it without a sun dip or other plot device.

Glads low showings in strenght may be in more quantity than current Kal. But his high end feats are definatly higher.

Superman has also moved planets himself. Each and every issue he comes closer and closer to Pre-Crisis Superman, shattering his previous boundaries. Weak shots of heat vision now can potentially destroy cities and strong ones - worlds. Heat vision can stop the Omega Effect. Last time they encountered not including the bad clone version that Darksied made, Superman downed Doomsday in 2 punches. He uses black holes to leap through space, proving that he's well beyond light speed in the vaccuum of space, or against the pull of immesurable gravity, or even inside of a quantum singularity. Against The Elite, he started moving/vibrating so fast TELEPATHS could not sense him, attack him, or even pre-cog his movements. THEN he took out Manchester by using heat vision precisely caculated through the pupils of his eyeballs to surgically lobotomise the part of his brain that game his VAST psi powers. He knocked out another Super by sucking the air out of his lungs from across the battlefield. Superman is in a league of his own and every other hero and villain knows it. Why don't you?

Pre Crisis here we come 🙁 The only thing he hasn't shown to be on the same levl as, is his durability.

And seemingly teleportation, hypnotic vision, and time travel abilities.

but other than that, he's more resistant to K and Magic.

"Superman has also moved planets himself"

Then that Superman and Glads have something in common while the current kal doesnt.

"Heat vision can stop the Omega Effect"

Nowadays anything can stop the Omega Effect. I think you still are in the pre crisis era when Darkseid was badass and would beat on anyone.

Currently not only is he innefective he is also someone who plain and simple doesnt win.

"Last time they encountered not including the bad clone version that Darksied made, Superman downed Doomsday in 2 punches"

Fragging scared Doomsday?

"He uses black holes to leap through space, proving that he's well beyond light speed in the vaccuum of space, or against the pull of immesurable gravity, or even inside of a quantum singularity"

Something others have done. Hello heralds.

"Against The Elite, he started moving/vibrating so fast TELEPATHS could not sense him, attack him, or even pre-cog his movements"

Telepaths on the level of xavier or Jean Grey for example?

"He knocked out another Super by sucking the air out of his lungs from across the battlefield"

wow. Hulk aint super and he beat a super before in the form of Hyperion.

"Superman is in a league of his own and every other hero and villain knows it. Why don't you?"

Because hes not.

"every other hero and villain" ?

My fanboy alert its going wild.

The Lasso will exist as long as truth exists.
