It's funny because she can!

But of course it doesn't matter. Apocalypse may very well punch down the Living Tribunal but the haters are gonna hate.

What does this prove, if anything?

He warps reality. But of course we all know Superman or Wonder Woman can resist that. Amirite?

It's pretty sad people think Apoc can take WW 🙂 She's one of the stronger people in DC, definitely high-herald.

Especially the "take out WW first, then go after Superman" comments- she has better defense than he does if she focuses on it.

Tyrant, stop making Apocalypse threads. People here have made their minds about Apocalypse. You can't change that.

With that said, I'm siding with team 1. Gladiator >= Superman, Apocalypse > Wonder Woman - IMHO.

They have to learn someday.

Good man.

How is it sad when only 3 people think it? I have nothing against Wonder Woman but come on. How does Diana stomp Apocalypse?

Faster, stronger, has two weapons which can mess him up with out much trouble, better fighter, among the best defenses in comicdom, etc.

Apocalypse can use matter manipulation on powerless and defenseless primitives. He turns Superman and Wonder Woman into rocks.

Nah.

Superman will probably take on Glads and beat him down as Diana utterly stomps Apoc with superior speed, fighting prowess, strength, and just about everything else that matters.

Where is the opinion of Superman > Gladiator coming from?

High end Glads stuff is pretty uberized, and mentioned enough times where it's common knowledge. 100x light speed, and not just fan measured feats but in comic instrument measured feats, along with the usual planet busting feats, and getting up from Tyrants attack.

What does Supes have on that?

Faster? Diana on a consistent basis gets tagged by metas like Deathstroke or Batman.
Stronger? Apocalypse at base size is stronger than base Hulk and can and has grown to be 100s of fts tall. 10000s if we count that fan art.

How is that matter manipulation? That is reality warping. Superman ain't resisting that.

He has the fanboy power on that.

Where exactly is the reality warping?

When he turned Oxymandias into stone from distance. That's not reality warping? Ok, how about this?

😬

She's faster than Apoc in terms of flight speed and eye/hand coordination, which means in close quarters, she's going to mess him up. That "feat" of restraining Hulk is misinterpreted and twisted more times than it's shown for what it is. He used his cables and restricted Hulk's movement from a superior position. Leverage and physics come to mind. Maybe if Apoc bested him in a test of strength, I'd concede that point to you. Diana can use her lasso and perform the exact same feat.

And LOL at "if we count that fan art".

Apoc has no resistance to a bladed tiara that can rend virtually anything it comes in contact with nor can he resist being caught in the soul equivalent of a napalm explosion.

Turning someone into stone doesn't have to be reality manipulation.

How is that reality manipulation?

What?
Those 'cables' are actually his arms 😐
How do you think he got in that position in the first place? By teleporting...
Apocalypse has near impenetrable force fields, the lasso would not work.
Apocalypse can dodge the tiara, Diana would not the dodge the reality warping.

From range.

Creating a walking, partially sentinet, superbeing out of nothing from miles away is not reality warping? Then what is may I ask?

You can't ignore the full-confidence stipulation, which means that we ONLY get to count Glads' top feats (which is complete BS and why he shouldn't be used on forum fights); these include killing a pheonix, one-shotting vulcan, moving 100x speed of light, taking a supernova-level blast like it was nothing, smashing planets, breaking hyperion's back, flying through stars, etc. etc. You could argue that Supes' high feats are similar, but they are off-set by low-end feats in the forum fight, whereas "full confidence" gladiator's are not, making him significantly more powerful in a forum fight.

That said, it is obvious that the lasso will destroy apoc, and that together diana and clark will beat gladiator. This reality-altering, adamantium sky-scraper crap with apocalypse must stop. No matter what the handbooks say his powers are, the only versions of apocalypse that resemble Tyrant's mental picture of him are in the cartoons.
