Reed vs Mxy

Reed outsmarts him ftw.

Reed only needs to have the retarded midget say his name backwards.

Easiest fight of his life.

Except he can take that away if he wants to.

And OPhas specified Mxy is out for the kill I.e. Serious.

Reed has a week. A week!

Ok.

For all the Reed supporters, what can he do in a week?

Otherwise, its just the same as saying Batman finds a way, without any elaboration.

What can't he do? It took him 2 minutes to go get his celestial killing gear.

Good question though, I don't know if Reed has any multiversal killing stuff laying about.

Exactly.

Are we going to extrapolate a straight line and say 2 minutes = Celestial killing gun, one week = 60mins x 24 hours x 7 days worth of power?

Even that wouldn't be fair considering Reed made those weapons in advance.

It's a pain to use Reed in matchups like these.

By all rights he shouldn't stand a chance in hell though 😛

If anything Hickman's run made it clear that weapons of "Mxy-harming magnitude" just aren't about in 616 anymore.

Well, we have another thread asking what Marvel weapon can kill Mxy.....and so far, nothing serious has come up.

Which means Reed with a week of prep ain't doing much.

I don't know much about the imps granted.

but if Myx's "power" is really science/technology based and Reed Richards has a week to prep why wouldn't he master 5th dimension science?

and if you think that he's not smart enough then who in marvel could?

^ No one in Marvel is 'mastering' the 5th dimension in a week, lol. They'd be lucky just to get a general comprehension of the realm in that time.

The most recent interpretation of the 5th dimension has it existing as abstract/meta-textual imagination.

Reed would be as hopeless as he is with magic.

So hopeless he ****ed up Doom in Unthinkable.

Checkmate Doom, devastated again.

if reed has molecule man's powers going through him and a week to prepare for 5th dimension science I think reed can pull this off.

IMO Reed's main plot device/superpower is to be able to come up with ridiculous tech and figuring things out.

Reed cannot figure out Magic because (idk if it has ever been truly revealed as such) it is not science based.

if it is science based I think Reed takes it

Come on people, Reed has had weeks/months/years of prep before and fallen way short of defeating beings nowhere near Mxy's ballpark. Let's not apply no limits fallacies to a situation where limits have been applied for decades

If you feel that he can make Mxy say his name backwards and win, fine, but know that that's a self-imposed rule of Mxy's and doesn't apply if he doesn't want it to.

Yeah, lets be honest here: Reed's best intelligence/build feats do not even romotely suggest he can cope with a being on Mxy's level. No-limits fallacies don't mean shit.

I get that Reed has a mountain to climb in taking on Mxy with prep. But lets not act as if Mxy cant be bested.

Thing is: Reed has NO feats to suggest he *can* best Mxy.

Closest character would be the Beyonder, and Reed was rather awestruck by his power, iirc.

He can't be bested, not by Reed with a week of prep. Against an out for the kill Mxy. When all he's been given, as per OP, os standard info.

He's an imp from the 5th Dimension, oh, by the way, there's a 5th Dimension. Also, if you trick him into saying his name backwards, he'll leave. Is this info 100% correct? Why, yes, of course it is...this is what happens, usually.

...Not that Reed would ever get the chance to trick him. One gesture, and Reed...along the the entire MU...are turned into a jar of pickles. 👆
