remember guys this isn't a "who can dodge the best on kmc due to powersets" this is about specific scenerios that might have occured on panel that make you say, hmm, that was a very impressive feat and such. Spider-man (due to powersets) can most likely dodge the best, but someone of lesser power and no pre-cog may have accomplished the similar feat and so would also be considered for the honour.

I aint talking the tier list, Cap, Parker, Logan etc.... are all above peak human.
no doubt, im just saying that because they have comparable feats with the high streets, i'll allow them here. That doesn't mean they'll win all catagories, for reasons stated above.
No. Cap wins all. Peak human.
For his stats he took a punch to the face from iron man...
Wolverines stats are bigger so for him to get the same respect he needs to do more... Cutting thanos for example.
I think the point is to say... You the hero are so outpowered yet you still fought on... Wolverines stats say he isn't outpowered by many of the guys he fights while say cap, frank or batman would be....
Spiderman taking down hulkby dropping a building on him while cool is not outside the normal realm of villains he ights

Your vote for Who in comicdom takes these awards for there super/anti-hero prowess.
1.[B]The "Can't touch this" award for Dodging and Deflection.
Whether bullets, melee, thrown projectiles or energy weapons. Your winner should be someone who has demonstrated this to the highest degree, and if you can't decide on anyone specific, then the winner should be the one who did it with the most style.2. The "You'll never take me alive" award for Fighting on in the face of almost certain Failure. Your winner here should be someone who took the punishment any lesser hero would have failed to take. Some one who persevered to turn the tide of an almost impposible situation.
3. The prestigeous "Cover me, i'm going in" award for Killing/Dis-abling EPIC amounts of cannon fodder. The one man Army moments of bad-assness, the last moments of 50 agents who thought "it's only one guy!!!" and then were left picking up teeth or worse. Comicdoms answer to Johnny Rambo!
4. And finally The "GET TO DA CHOPPAAH" award for Most impressive escape. Stripped, chained and bolted to a wall in an underground basement with no hope of rescue, the only option, some luck, some skill and all out escapse. Your winner here should be..well, you know the rest by now.
4 catagories, which street level hero/anti-hero takes the award in each. (feel free to add a runner-up). [/B]
My votes are not necessarily who did this to the greatest degree, but some that I considered to be just really cool. After all what's the point of having such specific titles to award if not for cool comic scenarios.....
1. Captain America- Civil War #1. When Cap destroys a load of Cape-Killers on the Helicarrier, dodges numerous tranqs, machine gun fire, leaps through a window and prevents himself from being splattered thousands of feet below by surfing a fighter jet, he really bought the badass, can't touch this vibe. This is further enhanced by the opening of Civil War #2 When Maria Hill says something like "He's arrested this no. of Super-humans in this many hours. We're facing our nightmare scenario. He's not alone." So cool.
2. Beast (sorry if he doesn't count as street level, but hey, if Spidey's allowed) in Astonishing X-men #12. Carrying Xavier away from the main fight, they are confronted by the danger room robot that had just easily defeated the Astonishing Team, Beast included. Beast verbally and physically trounced her, whilst dropping Xavier in one motion. Awesome.
3. Yorick Brown- Y: THe Last Man #59.
Spoiler:
Yorick is surrounded by the Israeli troops in his Parisian Hotel. His lover, Best friend and badass bodyguard lies dead. The murderer enters the building, ready to take down the Last Man. Yorick decides not to go quietly into the night an donning Agent 355's truncheon, he takes down the leader of one of the most heavily trained armies on the planet.
4. Batman in Superman and Batman #5. In the storyline that introduced us to the latest incarnation of Supergirl, Batman and Superman were on a rescue mission to save a possessed Supergirl from Darkseid. It comes down to Batman, stuck on Apokalips, squaring of against Darkseid. Batman would be lucky to escape with a head. However, thanks to using his most powerful weapon, his head, Batman beats Darkseid through blackmail. Batman protects himself (mostly) from Darkseid's pummeling with some Apokoliptian armour and threatens to detonate Darkseid's own hellspores, essentially volcanic like bombs, unless Darkseid frees Supergirl. Broken, Batman is victorious.
To the third I recall Drax the Destroyer making his way from a doomed planet and stomping pretty much everything in the Annihilation wave by himself until he steals a ship, crashes it against another one where Thanos is hiding, punches out Moondragon and kills the titan. Seriously look at the respect thread, that goes for about half the issue and the guy did it with two knives.
