I think Glads is too durable for SS to actually crush his brain outright and I see the FF shattering if he tries but I DO think it'd be something that could seriously daze/damage Glads. So if SS is undamaged by the feedback he's going to have a really good opening to follow up with more attacks until Glads is put down... but if he's dealing with the shock to his system that Sue sometimes gets it's going basically balance out Glad's recovery time and I don't see SS being able to actually win strait up against a heavy hitter like Gladiator.

He has advantages that Sue doesn't, however.

She has the durability of a normal human woman - he has Reed/Thing durability, at least.

Oh I know, that's why I said IF. The feedback isn't like normal damage(more like a shock strait to the nervous system) so I don't know if his durability would make it any easier for him to deal with. If it hits him like it does her, I'd give the win to Glads.

Does SS's durability stack with thing and reed's attributes? or does he only have the durability of whichever power(s) he is using more of at the moment?

Can he become stretchy rock?

Stretchy invisible rock that is on fire.

And he still gets raped by Sue vin

Invisible fire. Heh.

I always liked SuperSkrull, that the combined powers of the FF made a real nifty powerset.

With all the mention of his Thing-like durability and forcefields, I don't think this was said: he can absorb blows by becoming soft and stretchy. The more I see the argument for SS, the more I think he has a good shot at winning. He has excellent defenses against blunt force, and heat. Super Skrull's toughest challenge will be Gladiator's Supermanesque level of power and toughness.

I say this can go either way, depending on SuperSkrull's tactics and if that rattles Gladiator's confidence.

Ethan Edwards, a super-skrull that happens to be yet another superman copy, was stated to be more powerful than Kl'rt.

I know that has been stated that SS> FF (in raw power), but Sue dont beat him?

If we look by feats im not sure if he really is stronger than Sue making force fields or johnny in fire.

For the fight Gladiator has a massive Speed advantage.

Well, he did have that cool anti-matter blast... an ability that Johnny has never shown.

Also hypnotism too

Man, he'd beat Alpha Flight in 3-4 panels.

He couldn't even beat Sasquatch when they fought 👆

By the same guy that created the Super Skrull too 😉

y'all convinced me this would be closer than i initially thought. i do think the ff in the brain would def hurt, but could skrull follow it up fast enough to put glads down? i dunno. he has some pretty solid durability feats. if glads uses his speed effectively not sure ss could even use his ff in that way against him.

i'd still give glads a majority here, but it wouldn't be as heavy as i thought. i'd still say 6-7/10 though.

Would SS fire even hurt Gladiator?

No.

Glads literally laughed off Johnny's full Nova blast.

Said blast was powerful enough to level a whole city block, no less!!!!

Glads stomps no contest

Since I think a calm weakened Grey Hulk isn't more powerful than Gladiator, this is most def a stomp in Glads favor...

Or Surfer beating his face off...

When it comes to top end heralds, he doesn't do well and Glads is top end.
