KMC Comic Book Tiers

I co-sign on everything Smurph just said. Especially about Tony. He deserves his Low Herald title

And, as always, I'll say that current Tony should move up, but I'm sure I'll be shut down without a legitimate vote again.

I've also heard a handful of Superman fans say that Metallo should be low herald.

meh, i petitioned for that a while ago, and was shut down [even though tony has the feats to warrant a bump].

No. Leave Tony where he is and label it Classic Iron Man. Make Extremis Iron Man Low Herald.

4 people in favor, and i'll take this post as the 5th. It has no reason to be turned away just yet.

Me, you, Jase, Blair, Galan, Doosh.

Six people so far.

You can count Val too then.

that goes for everything we've said really. Going to be hard to counter it all.

I'm not sure if I count for your Iron Man motion.

Power? Ironman has beams that are hotter than the sun. Has laughed off HT's nova blast, has gone up against Thor, Sentry.

Versatility? He's shown more abstract tech and abilities than Mjolnir has.

Status? He's Marvel's poster boy. Head of SHIELD, Gov't senator, heads his personal Avengers team, headed Civil War. The Initiative is his project, and is fighting Secret Invasion.

I think he'd do fine against low heralders like Ronan, Super Skrull, and would win against most everybody that I just petitioned to move down.

I also think he would sweep his own tier. And even if there's some arguable, overall he's still ridiculously far above them, if you take power output, versatility, et al. into account.

Cuz you're not sure if you agree?

No, it's what I said above in response to Blair.

So I'd agree with you on that.

Bumping for relevance.

I have a bit of a problem with the high meta/low herald separation.

Why is Karate Kid low herald? Darwin? Gamora? Forerunner?

Jack Hawksmoor has one solid herald showing, and a bunch of meta level stuff. He should realistically be high meta.

The Wendigos should be listed by type, and most should be in high meta, IMO. Though I could be wrong, but...

Why is Drax is low herald? Has his current incarnation been re-tiered?

I'm pretty sure Apollo isn't any higher than Simon.

Is that Isis, as in Black Adam's late wife, that's listed as low herald?

What are Tempest's low herald showings?

There's also Prof. X that I really don't see as low herald if characters like Emma Frost are only high.

Anyways, that was after one look at the list.

Classic IM was high meta.

So I'd agree with you on that.

My votes

Classic Ironman - High Meta
Extremis Ironman- ok give him Low Herald
Tempest - move him down to high meta (his best feat was with the help of a very powerful artifact anyway and Hydroman can also control water...)
BRB - leave him where he is
Apollo and Wonder Man - leave them where they are

You guys were saying just Iron Man before. I just want to make sure people know what they're voting for.

Extremis IM to low herald- Smurph, Blair, Red, Jase, Val, Galan, comicfan

Capice?

Hawksmoor has worn a city as armor twice now. He clearly has that potential in a city, and has shown it. The fact that he doesn't show such power more often can largely be attributed to the fact that he'd be killing millions to do it. But for battle purposes, and thus tier purposes, low herald is very justified, especially given his massive durability, speed, healing, senses, etc. boosts in cities as well.

I'll let discussion continue on the others. Seems like I'll be making some changes soon. Though I trust you guys aren't jerks enough to use it as bait to get Tony banned from my team in the tourney, yes?

How about Tempest moving down.
I can post scans with Vandal Savage pawing him with a cable and some electricity while there is snow everywhere (Tempests main advantage - water manipulation) and other stuff that barely account for high meta...

well if that were the case, a whole list wouldn't have been included. etc.
