Gladiator vs. Green Lantern (Kyle)

Agree to disagree then, I suppose. There's no way that Superman will be breaking a non-jobbing Green Lantern's Shields.

Or getting past the trillions of tons of Kryptonite that the ring is spewing out.

Or the Red Suns that are popping up outta nowhere.

Hell, Kyle could amp his own strength and speed to Superman levels, and go close quarters with Kal-El if he wanted to.

Yep. He could do those things if given actual time.

IMO, it's a human brain that's his downfall against a person who can speedblitz like a mofo. 😬

And autoshields are the perfect remedy to such a downfall. Then, Kyle has the time to sit there and turn himself into a daxamite wearing red-sun-radiation-spewing kryptonite jewelry on a Mr. T level.

Auto-shields only come up when deadly force is about to hit the Lantern. Superman knows this, all he'd have to do is get a KO.

There are plenty of times where they've (GLs) been blitzed.

Yeah, and there are plenty of times that could DEFINITELY be counted as PIS.

Superboy, anyone?

But that wasn't a speedblitz anyway.

They should've seriously just straight up OWNED his ass.

I know it wasn't a speedblitz.

Just pointing out that Lanterns are THE biggest Jobbers in comics.

They are capable of, quite literally, ANYTHING.

And what do they do?

Lose.

Kyle doesn't have to go head to head.. Lots of indirect options. He could shrink himself down like The Atom, or make himself totally intangible, phase into a floor or something, and pump out constructs from hiding... And with an AI, he has access to other tricks, like planetary level time manipulation tricks, freezes and stuff... Or a Thanos like stasis cube used on Blood in Thunder Thor, like one GL tried using on Doomsday, and only failed because of the plot device evolution.

A GL ring definately has enough firepower to deal with someone on gladiator's physical level, since Hal was using a ring to take out Superman and Martian Manhunter, and not the Parallax power. Kyle may not be Hal, but he's pretty good in the willpower department.. Contained Ultraman, that Superman clone, for a good long while, for one. Made a small moon once, too.

Remember, the AI's a factor now.. This means auto FTL reflex's, auto shielding, protection from mortal wounds, and all the techniques the Oan computer can conjure up

Indeed.

Kyle has plenty of power TO go head to head, toe to toe, if he so desired.

But he could go for a REALLY easy win, and do any number of other things.

His options are truly limitless.

it's just a damn shame marvel has wasted a character of great potential like gladiator..
