Superhuman physical powers: In addition to the above listed physical abilities, Ares possesses virtual immortality
Superhuman Mental Powers: none
Special Limitations: none
Source of Superhuman Powers: Ares is a member of the race of superhumans known as the gods of Olympus
Personal Weaponry: spear, battleaxe, sword, and dagger

Origin: Like all mythological gods, Ares derives his quasi-magical godly power from Earth's ethereal biosphere. The circumstances of his actual birth are as yet shrouded in legend. His relationship to his "father" and "mother" (Zeus and Hera) is one of tradition, rather than actual blood-relationship.

Powers: As an immortal god, Ares possesses vast strength and endurance. His physical attributes are superior to the majority of Olympian gods. He is able to lift approximately 70 tons. He has virtually inexhaustible stamina, not tiring appreciably after any exertion. Like all immortals, Ares cannot die by any conventional means. His life force is beyond the reach of mortal injury. He can be wounded in battle, but his godly life force gives him incredible recuperative abilities. He can heal from penetration wounds (such as by knife, sword, or bullet) in anywhere from minutes to hours, depending on their severity. Only an injury of such magnitude that it incinerated him or dispersed a major portion of his bodily substance could kill him. However, in that case, Zeus or one of his fellow gods may have the power to resurrect him.

Model of DC Ares.

golem370
Who do you think would wins?

The Ion
Well DC Ares sure as hell looks cooler. I'm gonna vote for him based on that. yes

golem370
better pick of Marvels Ares

Sixth_Winged
DC Ares is a lot cooler. He looks like mags with the justified use of helmets.

GODSCRIBE
DC's looks much edgier, but Marvel's gods are in a different league from DC's.

Sixth_Winged
Marvel gods use anything even guns. See the new Ares series. Dunno if that could help him here though

roughrider
DC Ares is a top foe of Wonder Woman. Perhaps Draco 69 can elaborate on him.

Mider
this is a better place of info for Ares

http://www.titanstower.com/source/whoswho/badtt3.html#ares

Mider
what it says is that his armer is nearly indestructable he took over most of the U.S and russian armies can controll any weapon and that the only reason he was stopped from having the two super powers destroy each other is cause wonderwomen showed him using her magic laso is that if he did destroy the world he would have no followers and thus would lose all his powers and die i think later he gave a magic laso to the new wonder women or whatever with a lightning bolt from zues sooooo can MU ares almost destroy the world using his own power? this is good for all you guys who think DC pantheions are jobbers oh and dont forget the godess circe had all the gods fight once and she's just another one of wonder womens villains once again a good example of DC gods power for all you who think they are jobbers that seems like a pretty high feat compared to any of the MU's gods powers but thats just me what do any of the rest of you say?

Marvel Ares and that BIO is OLD!!!! and way outdated, he is cooler now than he ever was,and ready for blood.

Mider
well then you bring the bio

Sixth_Winged
Just some minor nitpick. They are following each other. The new ares is set post ragnarok and MU greek pantheons are afraid the same could befall them. Then it was revealed Ares some time ago had enough of life as one of the pantheons and decided to spent time on earh instead.

However, the upgrade part might be more than feasable in the near future.

Marvel Ares is badass. He ended a stalemated war between Zeus and Hades by defeating Hades army.

Badass.

Sixth_Winged
he's a white Mr. T complete with the mohawk thumbup

This is the profile from Marvel Directory - pretty much identical to the one above from www.immortalthor.net

See if there is more out there.
Thanks for the extra profile info on DC Ares.

roughrider
It seems the Norse God of War, Tyr, is a lot like Ares (at Marvel anyway.) Always making plots against the realm eternal - these two must resent not being the favourite, and see how Thor and Hercules get so much more attention and respect.

roughrider
Anyway, I might lean towards Marvel Ares, unless his DC counterpart shows something more.

Mider
what more do you want DC ares to show he almost destroyed the world under his own power and he's not zues beside that he took over zues throne and he battles a chick like wonder woman on a regular basis i would think.

R.O.T. Yahman
Apparently Ares will be joining the New Avengers !

Sounds good to me ! smile

I think DC Ares once stalemated Pre Crisis Darksied ! smile

Lucid Lui

I only really now about the DC Ares( so could soboydy give ome info about the Marvel Ares) But I mean I would have to agree that a guy that almost overthrew Zeuz and and stalmate with Draksied that is one toguh guy.

long pig
From what Marvel says, Ares' power is to win any battle he's in, supposedly.
That's why Zues and the rest are afraid of him.

leonidas
yeah, dc ares kicks his a$$. that is one bad mofo.

long pig
So, why haven't I been invited to be in the JLAKMC? sad

hmmm later on in DC comics it was stated that a whole pantheon or even all the earth pantheons couldnt stop Darkseid hmmm wonder how powerful that makes Pre-Crisies Darkseid?

leonidas
pretty damn . . .

olympian
"And in DC he took Zues' throne, last I checked."


Nah. He took Hades throne. And not in a confrontation either. Cheap shot.

Power wise DC Ares is above. Hes more the Mars of rome. Marvel Ares is more the original greek version. A better figther.

golem370
DC Ares seem to be like Marvels Seth

Mider
doesnt MU ares have trouble with Herc losing to him while DCU Ares defeated all the heros of DC earth almost?

the Darkone
Hercules and Ares I think are equal, but hercules has defeated more often then not. I heard the same thing that ares is suppose to get an upgrade in the end of the series, I say have and wait and see at the end of ares 6-part miniseries.

roughrider
DC Ares seems to act like more a manipulator, like Loki - getting pawns to do his dirty work. Not like Marvel Ares, who gets his hands dirty and revels in the bloodshed. Curious.

TricksterPriest
DC Ares is a skyfather who's stronger than Zeus. Marvel Ares gets his greek ass beat.

From what I've seen, Skyfathers at DC are somewhat less powerful than the ones at Marvel. The power of Marvel's Odin & Zeus doesn't diminish if there is a lack of belief in them in the world - that's how DC Ares was able to get more powerful than other Gods.

Their fighting styles would be a contrast. DC Ares would be full of bragging bravado, while Marvel Ares would be lunging to bite his ear off. big grin

Superherovandal
DC Ares pwns Marvel Ares. He has absolute control of all weapons and he controls the dead.
