Captain Marvel vs Silver Surfer · Comic Book 'Versus' Forum

Raoul Hey Yo!

how can people rate superman so highly against norrin, yet so easily put down capt?

not saying marvel would win a majority, but i don't see why he couldn't give surfer a fight...

Or maybe why Supes gives SS such a hard fight.

Mindship Snap out of it.

I'd like to think he'd put up a good one before finally being taken down by SS's power + versatility.

Anything less = boring.

IMO, I don't really see SS taking CM to be honest. Agaisnt supes, he has the advantage of exploiting Supes weakness but up agaisnt someone like CM what is he gonna do.

Superman has more fans I guess 😉

logically CM should do better against Norrin than Superman since he does not have weakness that can be easily exploited like Superman.

But I don't see CM as = to Superman

Because people are more willing to credit Supes with the ability to "find a way". I actually think that CM would give Surfer a better fight than Supes due to his lack of exploitable weaknesses and I see a "magical lightning amped" punch from CM as being more effective than than a punch from Supes. I still give Surfer 6-7/10, but by all rights CM should do AT LEAST as well as Supes does against Norrin.

SS 8/10.

CM is magical, and Surfer always to have a more difficult time with magical opponents (see Thor). It's a little different on the forum, but Marvel at least wins twice.

Yeah, all the ones backing up Supes don't actually use arguments, they just go with the 'he'll find a way' type of posts, right ? ermm

I would normally agree, but CM is a character that is generally considered equals with Supes in almost every regard except with no exploitable weakness. Coupled with magical properties, IMO he would easily be able to 7/10 SS.

He has defeated many character stronger/powerful than CM without exploiting weakness.

and CM is Superman he lacks the feats to claim number 1

Or by feats, and since Supes doesnt have a contrieved powerset hes actually easy to debate with.

I said CM is generally considered equals with Supes, even if he may not be "number1"he is peers with him. I dont know which characters u r reffering to that SS has beat, but IMO I just don't see him taking the majoirty agaisnt somone like Capt.

When he's at the top of his game, I don't see Captain Marvel coming close to Superman personally.

Superman has the better showings in virtually every category.

As often as not. There are the occasional posts that try to touch on Supes's options, but for the most part it's more like "Supes has faced energy manipulators with uber durability before, he can find a way".

A lot of people are considered his equals at one time or another does not mean its accurate CM feats are not as impressive.

To many to list some are well above CM

thing is, me personally, i think marvel is only equal with superman at the best of times... i think supes is a little bit stronger, faster and more durable when it really, really comes down to it...

Hey im not arguing that point, Supes is IMO>CM in every regard as well. However with SS, I tend to debate with what's been shown on-panel and not this ubber KMC version of him that does things he wouldnt normally do in battle.

Right, to be honest im not all that familar with CM as a character to be completly honest. Although from what I have seen he doesn't strike me as being a true equal to Supes. If CM had supes combat speed/MA ability and stats, IMO he would wreck SS 10/10.

Iff we go by feat that has been shown in comics doesn't surfer have much more feats than CM, making him the winner???

Just asking.
