Best matchup for Luke Cage in the DCU?

Out of all the heroes (Only heroes), who is a good matchup for Cage?

I think Collin if he had more experience under his belt would be a good matchup.

He was a venom experiment scarecrow came up with. He felt that batman wouldn't harm a child. Batman eventually cut the venom tubes but apparently at that point he didn't need them and can activate the venom in his system at will. So think about a bane sized roided out 10 year old child without the venom dependency to make him stronger and you've pretty much got him pegged.

Well... Thats Different

Captain Atom.

Bendis writing is all the help he needs.

best match for cage from DC is Iron Munro. same level of strength, a little more durable but not much. he does have a healing factor that Cage lacks however. if taken from the same Age ( Munro being a retconned replacement for GA Superman who never increased in power like the real one did) Cage would make up for that difference in better combat skill ( Munro's skill got a lot better later on as he worked for government agencies IIRC)

Atom Smasher maybe. I admit that I dont know enough about him, but from what i've seen, he seems to be in the same powerset. Again, I might be way off base.

I wish they would bring Iron Munro back. 🙁 When was the last time we saw him?

Atom Smasher would beat Luke for the majority. Though he would work for it, so it could be a good match.

Superman
