I like the Wondy scene with Quasar. I like the Monica Rambeau GL thing. Those are all things that are agreeable to use in debates and make sense.

don't those people all have higher feats than what happened in JLA/Avengers?

It's a nice story, and i am a huge busiek fan, but bada and i just think that most of the examples in that story just don't compare when they've all gotten bigger and better.

Well they are fairly close, I think it the comic it said it was a 45 minute plane ride to Gotham.

Lulz. He's in fact saying the cross over is canon but cant' be used becuz it's too controversial. Don't get too happy. Matter of fact, I tire of your style of debate anyway. Perma Ignore.
He didn't say it either way. Please don't insert your own thoughts into other peopl's statements. The way he constructed his words, I thought, were very clear. Which is why I stated that however they ruled the way they ruled is irrelevant. I'm done with this topic for now, the rules are clear now. JLA/Avengers is unusable.

Did or can max Count Nefaria further drain powers?

It may be a bad story, it may be illogical but it surely is canon. You may like it or not, for you it may be not canon for marvel and dc it was, you have to life with it.
When did Marvel claim it was canon, what handbook?

I don't want to derail this thread even further, but I have to ask. Can it be referenced in future debates? It's obviously not primary canon, and it would be rather silly to base an entire argument on one crossover. Is it relevant at all? Will I get bant if I even mention it? ( 😛 )

What I'm asking really, is that, does it have any weight in an argument? Can it be used with some proof from main canon?

give me an example lol...

Even though Superman has more speed; as mentioned, his reserves are lesser than that of Nefaria.

All of the slight advantages Superman has at the outset would diminish while Nefaria remains at optimal strength.

I go with Nefaria.

Ahem, Nefaria only drains IONIC powers. Not other kinds.

Superman's reserves are legendary, go blow smoke elsewhere.

Didn't CN get koed when hit with a 90ton body coming at him at the speed of sound (vision)?

^ People have already talked about how that came at the end of a drawn-out battle with all of the Avengers. Try to keep up.

Count Nefaria drained the powers of three different characters to gain his strength, durability and speed. The whole draining of ionic powers limitation occurs when Count Nefaria is resurrected as an ionic being. He was at his max before that. Since this thread uses a "max Count Nefaria," I think most of us have assumed we are using the incarnation before his ionic form.

^ Never mind. Apparently Count Nefaria used science to imitate the powers of the three characters when they were amped. Just reread it. My mistake. Did Bendis get it wrong when he had Count Nefaria steal away Spiderman's power during the RAFT breakout?

Most likely. srug I've never heard of him draining powers from other characters, aside from Ionics.

By the way Pun was shot in both his shoulders when that happened.

Badabing and I have discussed this at length, and have decided to make an addition to the rules:

I'm sure there are plenty of other sources you can use to make on topic arguments, guys.

So what are the rare exceptions? You also said some DC vs Marvel could be used

The story was referenced in a few character bios, but didn't mention the DC characters by name. But would say something generic like "battled an emerald knight from parallell universe" Several of them were posted before, clearly referencing the JLA/Avengers. It was also written in the 'recent arcs' section of one of them.

Here's Grandmaster's Bio.
Read the last giant paragraph.

Here, in JLA/Avengers, Pulsar -- who is able to duplicate energy, does so to the energy of GL's ring. Bottom Panel.

Here- in he bio.

'such as when she replicated and drained the verdant willpowered energies of an extra-dimensional emerald gladiator.'

All in all though, it probably really doesn't do much for these vs threads, as feats are what counts anyways.

Doesnt that make it JLA/Avengers canon then?

iirc, JLA/Avengers was itself the rare exception. that'll need to be edited.

pretty much. while jla/avengers is good, most of the content you or anyone else would use for vs competitions is outdated. superman beat thor. great. while i still think superman would beat thor, both men have come a long way since then.

primary universe feats have to come first.

Superman Ftw.

LOL @ this new "averages" angle.

Yeah, it's a way of saying "I don't like what Superman can do at full capacity, so I'm just going to put his average on a level that's convient to my case".

Anyway, my interest in this discussion has faded.
