I knew if I said enough I could get you to join in. I'm wondering then, is logan in the top 5 IYO?

Out of widely known characters? Definitely...

Thing is, Marvel has plenty of obscures. Ogun, Stick, Izo, Po - "old masters" category. And guys like Gorgon "stop trying to match his skills", Murderous Lion "one of the best fighters in the world" or even Kitty Pryde "you might be even better than Logan".

There are also striking power specialists, like Mandarin, Temugin or - the sad jobber - Karnak.

Shang-Chi used to be described as the best MA on the planet during Marvel's classic era.

Marvel made an interesting list themselves... and by interesting I mean there's Orson Randall here - another obscure character you don't see mentioned often on Vs. boards:

thanks for the info. Out of every known marvel character that isn't a robot, alien, or someone from the future and has managed to reach the level that they're at through skill, what does your top five (or top ten) look like? Same question applies to dc characters (if you have enough knowledge of them).

Forgot White Canary on my list. In the short amount of time she was able to:

1. Own Black Canary/Huntress at the same time.
2. Easily evade Hawk who has super speed.
3. Been called Shiva level MA.
4. Able to tank the Canary Cry.
5. Kill the Twelve Brothers In Silk.

So many good ones in Marvel. Echo should be mentioned for sure as well. Im putting Matt in top 5 Marvel for sure. Him, Rand, Chi, Echo, Tasky, Elektra are all interchangeable. I dont consider Moondragon part of Earth.
