KMC Comic Book Tiers

Started by tjcoady485 pages

Plastic Man is one of those characters that are just TOO all over the place for me to feel comfortable saying that they belong in a tier like mid-herald.

I mean, one of his strongest advantages (the telepathy-immune mind) doesn't even seem to be canon anymore. And then there are things like him being taken down by guys like Mr. Freeze or Killer Frost.

Swamp Thing to high herald though? Agreed.

I agree with Swamp Thing to High Herald

I actually wouldn't object to making him Trans

True.

Many of PM's showings are mid-herald worthy, but as you cited -- many of them are significantly less.

Generally speaking, low-herald is a good rank for now.

Meh for Swamp Thing.

Against Plastic Man to mid.

I pretty much retracted my initial request in the above post. 😛

Sentry who is suppose to be at Galactus level [or some members say] he sure does lose alot. Lost to the Chysler Building in Damage Control and now to a "Captain America" robot in FF #556

Sentry started off promising, and since then has fallen from grace... HARD.

His most impressive feat was off-panel, and now all his recent loses are off-panel as well. Heh!

Not to say he hasn't had SOME impressive showings as of late.

Tearing through Doom's shields and armor like butter comes to mind.

Here's scans of the "Cap" robot, pretty uber team wrecker:

Didn't he also just recently get KO'd by Ms. Marvel?

imo annihilus is high herald,i you look at marvel guys in transcendent he cant hang with the likes of thanos,tyrant,onslaught.

he can definitely hang with the like of surfer and co.

High herald should be plenty.

Tim Hunter to high herald.

Alright, since no one has formalized the voting in a while:

Swamp Thing to HH
Annihilus to HH
Black Night (Dane Whitman) to LM

Those are the 3 up for voting. Stick to those until something is vetoed or decided upon. Some have been voted upon already, so if anyone wants to tally recent votes that would be cool.

...

Also, just out of curiosity, if we consider making a Skyfather tier...what would be the parameters? Because "Odin" is a nice benchmark, but creating the line at the low end would be rough since we currently just have a "Sub-Skyfather" tier. Would that make Odin the minimum? Then where does one make a max? "Skyfather" is a handy term, but if we make it exactly Skyfather and nothing else, it'll be too small a category to warrant inclusion. But trying to make arbitrary divisions above and benath Skyfather would likely be equally as fruitless.

I'd like to vote Grey Hulk (Mr Fixit) to High Meta.

Agree on all 3. Though I'll put Swampie up for trans level.

And no on the skyfather tier. the shitstorm on this one is best avoided and it could potentially ruin this thread.

I personally will drive you all insane to get Darkseid in the same tier as Odin. durlaugh

how do some comic artists who draw like crap get employed?

and I'm not even talking about Liefield...who at least can claim it's his 'style'. I've seen some art that seriously look like some dude just completely halfassed it.
