We haven't placed current Warlock. The HH one is "classic." I actually want to see who is in the other cocoon from GotG before we start labeling incarnations of him, though.
Not sure how you don't buy BB holding back. He clearly needed to hold back because of the T-bomb, then absolutely destroyed Vulcan when he finally let loose. In a forum-style battle, what's to stop BB from just leveling Vulcan with about a dozen of those flesh-stripping screams in a row?

same argument can be made for vulcan, regarding holding back. i'm pretty sure it wasn't in HIS interest to get blown up either . . .
bb wasn't able to use his electron manip (his primary offense) nor was he able to dominate physically--his next most preferred choice. he even used his scream in a way we've never before seen. not sure how he uses his ultimate attack, for maybe the first time ever in that manner, but is still holding back. people may think it wasn't depicted properly, but . . . it did its job. after all it DID kill vulcan . . . could he use it repeatedly? i don't know. not sure what the scream takes out of bb. and if he did, it would be unprecedented in comics history and be even CLEARER proof he wasn't holding back.
vulcan supporters could claim he just needed to shut down bb's brain to prevent ANY attacks at all like he did in his first set of appearances. arguments can always be made, but i really don't see how bb was holding back, like i don't think it was PIS for vulcan not to shut his brain down. if bb was holding back, then it could be reasonably said (and with the same amount of proof . . .) that vulcan likely was as well since neither wanted to be blown up.
meh, not the place for the discussion i guess, but . . . you DID ask. 😄
oh, and i'm curious to see who is in the coccoon too . . .

It wasn't, but he's insane. He didn't seem to care at all, and even mocked BB about the bomb. You're interpretation isn't awful, but I saw it as being fairly decisive.

meh. he was sane enough to challenge him 1on1, and sane enough to beat him down physically for the most part. he was also expressly trying to STOP bb from detonating the bomb so he was sane enough to want to prevent the bomb from going off . . .

😂
well, geeee . . . thanks. it was decisive in that the scream ended it, sure. i never said differently. i just don't see bb holding back in the least. rather he was hesitant about screaming--something that is completely in character. i just don't know if he could repeat the scream multiple times, nor do i know for sure just how far the limits of vulcan's regeneration extend. the battle was close enough that i could see them in the same tier though.

both scenarios are possible, but more efficient or no, 10 000 years is a LONG time . . .
keeping vulcan where he is is fine by me for the moment. i don't think we've seen the last of him, and i think he'll demonstrate sooner or later that he deserves to be higher up the chain.

He is basically Superman. It was even stated somewhere (I will try and find it) that he is as strong as Superman, but he is unable to use that strength because of ....problems with his brain. He can match Supergirl, Grundy, and even WW.
yup. i think it was in the one where they switched bodies.
