who wins ?
What speed advantage? Gladiator's superior straight-line speed would only be an advantage when he's trying to escape from an enraged Hercules. An enraged Hercules should be on par (physically) with an enraged Thor and that's too much for Gladiator, even with assistance from other heavy-hitters.

Huh? Gladiator should do okay here. He has the confidence, strength, durability, and two ranged attacks. He's no pushover in HtH combat and can fly. These are quite a few obstacles for Zeus's son to overcome on pure strength alone. Plus, Zeus is not an x-man or a mutant, so he won't be getting any jobber wins against Gladiator. 😉

Originally posted by aliveinbostonSo i guess you're ignoring the times Gladiator's used his combat speed then? In various fights against Nova, Cannonball, Supreme, the FF etc. Hell, when he used his speed Thor didn't stand a chance. What about the time Thor and the FF were using tech to boost their speed to the point where nothing else appeared to be moving at all, yet Gladiator was able to move at that speed under his own power. For extended periods of time. Does that not count?

Gladiator has more than enough combat speed. And has never needed assistance against Thor. If you look at their fights, Thor's the one who's had assistance.
