Cross Genre Nominations Thread #4

Here are the rules:

(1) All nominations must be between one character primarily identified as a comic book character and a character of another medium outside of comics.

(2) No spite nominations.

(3) In order to receive official consideration once the poll thread is made ANOTHER person must communicate their support for the nomination other than the person who proposed it.

(4) Try not to spam nominations, consider them carefully and then post them in this thread.

(5) Explain the scenario and why you think the matchup would be a good one and provide documentation for the character(s) proposed so that others can understand what they're dealing with.

Kenshiro(Fist of the North-Star) vs Karate-Kid(DC), Mantis(Marvel), and Gamora(Marvel).

They fight in a desert, CIS, PIS, and CIP are off. This is a good match because they are all martial artists?

Iron Spidey v.s. Kain the vampire.

Starts ontop of a NYC skyscraper, but they can fight anywhere within NYC, no BFRs.

Shouldn't / Couldn't we make more scenarios? Like 2 different battlefields and bfr on and off that we have 4 scenarios?

Also in general for all these cross threads

^ I suppose so.

@ Omega.

Can i make the suggestion that you veto nominations that are going to be non-competitive, even if they garner support from other people? Not to bash anyone's nomination, but to avoid the situation we have with the 'Wolverine vs. Luffy' thread.

Will second this.

Propose:

Marvel and DCU versus Warhammer 40K verse. No skyfathers/abstracts/transcendants.

If Verse vs matches are a no go for this, I propose Sonic vs Zoom.

Edit: Oh yeah.

Marvel and DC have some broken stuff, but so does 40K. Without the skyfather level things I think it would be good. I recommend putting them in this hyperbolic time chamber type thing that never runs out of space. Essentially endless in all directions.

Sonic vs Zoom is just because. I hear Zoom is really fast, and Sonic is the fastest thing in Games vs to my knowledge.

No. One person cannot veto a majority vote. That would be undemocratic and frankly retarded.

more retarded than a thread in which an argument can't even be made for the other character? ok.

Hey, if we're allowed cross-universe threads, I'd be alllll over a 40K verse thread as long as the top tiers of comic verses are removed. (Let's face it, MANLY as the 40k verse is, you just can't argue with sky fathers. >_>😉

Problem with Zoom is its not normal speed, its manipulating a time bubble that only he exists in to make hismelf as fast as he wants.

Ryu Hayabusa, from Ninja Gaiden

vs.

Mandarin w/ rings

-no CIS/PIS/BFR
-Fight takes place in the middle of an empty Times Square.

Rather than the entire Marvel, DC, and 40K universes (all are ridiculously massive and occasionally contradictory), we could do something a little smaller scale. Just the Chaos Gods, for instance.

Well, I had figured part of 40K verse's charm is the sheer numbers it would have due to the Tyranids. Probably the only thing that would even them out against things like Thor and Supes.

And k, I recommend Sonic vs Flash w/o Speed Force then.

Screampastes and Marwash22s sound both good

You're probably having troubles accepting what cross genre matches are all about, they are not going to be fair simply because only popular characters will make it through. I mean, who is going to make a Jaquio vs Silver Samurai thread if there are barely Silver Samurai threads in this forum?

The whole fairness of the concept reeks of failure, deal with it or stop posting 🙂

Also, it was just a query, not a demand, so please refrain from telling me how or when to post.

nah, i don't care about the popularity aspect of it, that's bound to be the case 'cause everyone wants to see their favorite characters. My problem is threads that match characters who have no business going up against each other. It doesn't fly in normal threads and it gets called spite, so why should it be allowed in cross-genre threads? Taking two popular characters such as Goku vs. Superman is legit 'cause that's actually debatable from both sides; however, Naruto vs. Batman is complete and utter nonsense... even if people give something like that a thumbs up, i think it should be vetoed 'cause it's ridiculous.

Yeah, Goku and Superman is less loopsided than Luffy and Wolverine 🙄

Take it from my experience: I make threads about Crystal fighting Gambit in a subway, nobody posts. I make a thread about Thundra fighting Colossus, people say they are about even and the discussion is finished. The thing is, success will come only with popularity and not because of fairness, and if you focus too much in non-spite threads people will simply ignore the thread which is twice as useless.
