or just program a few sentinels to do the task for you...
I'd buy out Marvel and DC and have them power down the characters for the duration of the fight.
Then I'd have the writers write in specific weaknesses to things that I'd have in spades.
Then I'd totally thrash any character I wanted.
Then I'd have the writers reveal that the power down was temporary, and restore everything to the way it should be.
Except I'd have them make me a custom comic book series with my own characters. 😖hifty:
I can defeat the JLA. 🙂
Here's how:
The Green Lantern: This one's so simple -- I just catch him not actively using his ring and snipe him. As a backup (in case I should miss or otherwise somehow fail to kill him outright), I'll take a page from Batman's book (but in a different way) and carry at LEAST one flash grenade, as well as a backup close-range weapon -- probably an SMG with decent accuracy, like a slow-fire M11. After all, as we all know, a blinded Kyle is a nigh-helpless Kyle. 😉
I now have a Green Lantern ring.
Martian Manhunter: Hell, I have a Green Lantern ring! But I want to save power on it, so I bring along a flamethrower, an SMG loaded with incendiary rounds, and a phosphorous grenade or five. Burn baby burn ...
The JLA is now cut off communication-wise.
Batman: Pathetically simple. I just turn on the Bat-signal and wait for him. Hi, Batman! I have a Green Lantern ring, and you do not. Bye, Batman! Since that took essentially no time to accomplish, I haven't burned an appreciable amount of power. Acceptable.
Wonder Woman: For this one, I open with smoke grenades (having already donned night-vision goggles based on thermal imaging so I can track her heat signature) and then unload with my .5 Inch Heavy Machine Gun. It's already been demonstrated that a high-powered rifle can give Wonder Woman a concussion ... so repeated pummeling from a weapon of this calibre should feel to her like being pounded on by Lennox Lewis would feel to me. And blinded by the smoke, she can't block effectively. 😉 Should all else fail, I fall back on the power ring. But I don't want to rely on that.
The Flash: Oh, this one's hard. This one's really hard. Theoretically, I could kill him by just sniping him, but it would depend on who was writing him that day. He can either be blindsided easily or can react to a bullet the instant it touches his skin, even when he didn't see it coming. Who can tell? 😛 So I try to snipe him. If I fail, he'll race up to me no doubt, but I've already shielded myself using my ring. So now I'll trap him in a bubble, and now he's the fastest man alive who can't move. And now I'll shrink the bubble ...
Superman: Assuming Superman's existence also implies the existence of kryptonite, I have it made. Infinite resources and prep-time means I WILL have some of this on hand, and then on top of that, I have the ring. No way he can handle both at the same time. 😉
Aquaman: I'm not letting him get anywhere NEAR me with his telepathy. Once again, sniping with a high-powered rifle is all that's needed. His durability is superhuman, but it's not THAT superhuman.
Plastic Man: Actually, I think Batman had the right idea with this one: freeze and shatter. After that, I take the individual pieces and spread them far and wide. And incinerate them, if I can. Or use the ring to fly some of them out into space ...

Earth (i.e. no mutant nullifiers and such). Also unlimited time for prep.2. You can pick the field of battle, and even though others can help you with prep, you must fight him/her alone. The comic character gets their regular equipment but no prep.
3. Let's leave BS comic appearences out of this thread. Yes it's amusing, but no it isn't practical.
...I'm thinking with a good plan, most street level people would go down. But I'm curious to see if anyone thinks they can take more powerful people. Post your plan, not just "I could beat Iron Man"...we need reasons. [/B]
do we have to use the money we have in the bank? or can we have as much money as we want?
I could take batman, daredevil, captain america, etc.
Batman;
I could face him in h2h combat, using my fighting abilities which are better than his. Like Bruce Lee said" It is not about mastering as many styles as possible, but about mastering a few moves that can effectively neutralize any opponent."
I actually, have a few moves that I could catch batman with that would put him down.
Daredevil;
The only adavantage he has over me is the blind radar and the agility.
I don't need to flip around and shit though, I learned early on in my training that shit like that is a waste of time, yeah it looks cool, but if he were fighting someone realstic and not the pathetic/gullible excuses for masters in the comics, they'd just hit him or grab him or kick while he was doing these amazing twirls and shit.
AS for the radar, he is not omnipent, yeah he can predict your next move, but if you're kick enough while fighting you can switch up and use your speed to catch his off guard or even nail him before he can even react.
His reflexes are only peak human so he isn't on spiderman level reflexes, which means he can be hit by someone fast enough(like me).
Captain america;
I'd just take him off fighting skill.
I don't care if that directory has him at whatever level.
I can take him. I'm also probably faster than him or on par with him in reflex speed.
He has strength advantage, not by much sense I can over head press over twice my bodyweight 400 lbs he is only twice my pressing strenght.
To quote Bruce Lee" he is strong, but is he powerful!?!"
Cap may be stronger, but it doesn't mean he has more power in his hits.
Power in its true sense is mass, strenght,speed, and technique. I have all these things, not just one or the other.
I have them all.
I believe I can take these people.
No I'm not crazy, I just have confidence in myslef and a history of training/conditioning/fighting against skilled individuals to back it up.
Confidence is key, hey I might get beat, I might win.
Confidence is key, man.
If you believe you can't do something(realistic) you have already failed before you even tried.
I like the more ambitious ones. Orestes saying he could take the JLA is particularly amusing. I like the plan, but you wouldn't be whupping ass with a GL Ring from square one. It would be an uphill battle even with thte ring. But I agree that you should go after the ring first.
The rules state that you have any and all resources in OUR Earth. No sloppy physics, inventions, or other stuff. Kryptonite wouldn't be an option. And while a good GL might take down Supes, you and I trying to learn to use it would get our butts handed to us by Kal.
Still, I loved the idea. Ultra-ambitious plans like that are what I was hoping for.
Tell me if this is stupid.
I would pay 25 million dollars to Stark Enterprises to build me an ironman suit consisting of all of his abilities plus a built-in electric blaster and Jango Fett's jetpack (with the missile). Then ill go to Dr. Strange and pay him 10 million dollars to teach me magic for 5 years. Then ill go and kick Thanos's ass.

Well no, it's not stupid, but it breaks the rules of the thread. You have access to anything in OUR world...no bogus Iron Man science and stuff like that. It's to see who we could beat with real technology.

Well, the GL ring's power comes chiefly from imagination (I have that in spades) and force of will (ditto). I mean, I know it probably sounds like boasting, but I'm very confident that I meet both criteria with ease. So I might lack experience, but so what? Basically I just need a vision and the determination to make it happen. The ring does the rest.
But going after Superman without either magic or kryptonite as an extra edge is utterly pointless -- I wouldn't even try, honestly. Well ... the only other thing I could think to do would be to use the ring to nab Lois and use her against him in the fight by constantly putting her in danger and even using her repeatedly as a human shield ... and thereby constantly diverting his attention away from the combat at key moments. Trying to go against him with JUST the ring would be reckless and foolish and would more than likely fail.
But anyway ... as well, you may have noticed I placed a low amount of reliance on the ring itself and included backup options for every encounter except for Batman (if I can't beat an unprepared, nonpowered human -- however skilled -- using a GL ring in a face-to-face fight, there's not much hope for me). Part of that was to save power on the ring (especially since I'd expect to burn a ton in the Superman encounter), and part of it was because allowing it to become a crutch could turn it into a weakness.
Anyway, thanks for the feedback. 😉
i would get sniper training from my cuz. he is the green berets. i would choose to has the battle in wooded area where could be well hidden. for back i would hire mercenaries from the French foreign legion, Birtish SAS and the berets/seals. I would use them unless i was gonna die. I would also use my great monatary assets to hold a fighting tourny to the death to find the best fighter in the world. He would train me for several years. i would also get wieght training until my body was peak.
i believe with a good amount of supirse and a little luck i could take many street levels and some x men who dont have durabiliy i.e. cyclops
