1. Both are fully rested.

Two scenarios:

1. Doom gets 1 year prep and Apocalypse gets two and a half years prep.

2. No prep for either character.


One of the many questions here is, can Dr. Doom's magical powers overcome the unknown nature of Celestial Technology? Is Celestial Technology somehow magically powered itself? If not, then what?

galactusischere
Apocalypse wins in both scenarios.
Celestial tech >>> Doom's tech

Enyalus
Doom's tech = cosmic cube-like object.

LOL. Well, when have the writers ever even addressed the true nature of Celestial Technology?

Never. : )

galactusischere
Still celestials are vastly superior to humans in term of power and intelligence, plus they are as old as time itself.

Enyalus
Dr. Doom traveled back in time and created the Celestial race and gave them their tech.

Celestial tech is based on Doom's tech. True story.

True, without a doubt.

Apocaylpse loses both scenarios, but claims his loss was all part of his masterplan, thereby saving face somewhat.

Lord_Talron
oh please, doom wins either of them easily. a man like doom bested by mere celestial tech?

Doom had sex with Eternity and that's how the Celestials were created.

Doom's not gay. He banged Infinity, who smeared Doom's semen across Eternity.

Oh.

Doom only has sex with his Storm-bots and Sue-bots.. and perhaps with a clone of himself.

redhotrash
Sadly robot versions of Sue and Storm would have more personality than the real deals.

Doom wins both.

the ninjak
Apocalypse is a dumb thug who doesn't have the imagination to use his abilities to their fullest potential.

Doom on the other hand is the polar opposite he wins.

If this was no CIS PIS. It would be a crazy fight limited by imagination.

janus77
Doom wins in either scenario ... especially if the battle without prep takes place in a cafe or a furniture shop big grin

Apocalypse does not believe in humility. He is too arrogant for that.
It is time that the writers take Apocalypse seriously.

It would be epic to see Apocalypse saving all of the mutants from total destruction, created by Bastion and the mutant haters, in the Second Coming storyline.

galactusischere
Apoc has 2.5 times more prep than Doom, and I still await to see evidence of Doom's tech being superior to that of the celestials.
BTW, there is no way Apoc is losing to Doom without prep.

janus77
Apocalypse has some "Celestial Tech" which he gained eons and which the Celestials don't seem too interested in retrieving. it's not as if it helped Apocalypse achieve a single worthwhile victory on the way to his excuses-riddled goal of speeding up Mutant evolution or whatever.

for all Apocalypse knows (which, let's be brutal, isn't much really) it could just be a Celestial toilet roll holder with a push-to-release mechanism. he does not understand it, has not mastered it and I have never seen him deploy it to any great effect (WarHulk's "Celestial Tech" was stated to be regulating Hulk's energies from the two universes).

Doom, on the otherhand, has tech which has siphoned the power of The Beyonder. he has augmented his own armour with Galactus' tech, which he understood and deployed to great effect ...

in sum, 1) Apocalypse is "all hat and no cattle" (lovely expression that! big grin), 2) He has yet to actually effectively deploy his pilfered tech against someone or to some powerful ends and 3) Galactus' Tech >>>> Celestial Tech yes

galactusischere
He does understand the celestial tech. He made the harbinger of Apoc, he made Sinister + his horsemen much more powerful using the celestial tech.

Doom's tech didn't do shit against Beyonder, it was Galactus' tech + Doom's wits.

Doom augmented his armour with Galactus' Tech in order to siphon Beyonder's power. that beats everything Apocalypse has ever done, with whatever tech he has.

any tech could have made the horsemen "more powerful", it's not as if they faced any powerful opposition. Doom's used his own tech, as well as that which he's borrowed from superior intellects (Galactus) to greater effect.

Black bolt z
Apoc creates something he calls "unstopable"with his prep time and this is how both sceniros will play out

Apoc:I shall destroy you

Doom:None may destroy one such as I!(doom then uses whatever he created prob something like making himself adamantium armor and stomps apoc)

You need to re-read SW one. Neither Galactus nor Doom's tech was succesful taking down the Beyonder.

Black bolt z
Galactus was "shot down like a bug" to the beyonder.

Lord_Talron
It's a joke to think doom would loose to someone like apoc

galactusischere
^ he does lose to Apocalypse.
Apoc is more powerful, has better tech, and has more prep.

TOAA is the editor/writer. He doesn't count.
INSIDE of the comic Beyonder was omnipotent.

he used his armour-augmented-by-GalactusTech, to steal Beyonder's powers. that's the one and only feat that matters.

it's very possibly the greatest tech/prep feat in Marveldom.

well, aside from the time someone called the cops on Thanos, that was godly prep.

TheTyrant
No galactusischere is right. Doom failed misreably when he tried to steal Beyonder's powers that way. He was shreded to pieces, it was through Doom's sheer will power that he managed to take Beyonder's powers.

All happened in SW I

And as for the thread, the Apocalypse wins both scenarios.

janus77
iirc, he used his tech and feigned defeat, in order to catch Beyonder off-guard.. I'll re-read it but ...

OneDumbG0
Doom's entire plan revolved around Doom getting within arm's reach. Although he certainly would have avoided being shredded... if he could have helped it.

Enyalus
While trapped in Reed's body, Doom was able to unlock and access all of Reed's tech and his laboratories pretty effortlessly. And Reed's prep and tech > Apoc's, so...

TheTyrant
Still without prep Doom wouldn't win against a high herald character. With prep I doubt it too but whatever.

redhotrash
Apocalypse has had decades or more of prep and still lost miserably...

galactusischere
Maybe being the biggest jobber in marvel has something to do with that?

By now, should that be considered in character for Apocalypse?

**** apocalypse with thousands of years and ceslestial tech he has never accomplised any of his goals .

Doom with will guts and brains alone has won his many of his battles.


If you have thousands of yers + celestial tech at your command and you still cant acomplish your goals you are shit.

That's the one. smile

TheTyrant
Apocalypse has technopathy, telekenisis, and shapeshifting, which allow him to do so much more with his superior tech.
Doom can't win this battle.

TheTyrant
And what has exactly Doom done in a fair one on one fight, that puts him at Apocalypse's level?

Enyalus
Hasn't Doom defeated Sentry once (he's lost once as well, but...) ? Plus as others have pointed out, one-shotting Warlock. Two-shotting Magus. Beaten Morganna Le Fey, beating Dr. Voodoo as the Sorcerer Supreme, taken on Savage Hulk, beaten Magneto, etc. He's able to compete with heralds on a consistent basis.

TheTyrant
Hasn't Doom defeated Sentry once (he's lost once as well, but...) ?
That's nothing to brag about. Sentry stalemated WWH, and WWH would get stomped by even a jobbing Apocalypse erm

Plus as others have pointed out, one-shotting Warlock. Two-shotting Magus.
Magus and Warlock weren't expecting Doom and Kang to show-up. So sneak attack.

Apocalypse however has had the edge over guys like Loki, Black Bolt, Cable and High Evolutionary.

Doom might be smarter alot smarter but Apocalypse is too versatile for him and has powers that would greatly help him with his technology and prep. Plus he has 2.5 times as much prep as Doom does.

I'm picking Apo over Overrated Doom. thumb up

Is Doom's tech better than Apoc's tech?
For 2 years, I think Apoc can conjure some pretty powerful weapons using his knowledge of Celestial tech.

So it's all willpower? It had nothing to do with Doom's armor?

So if "sheer willpower" is all that made Doom triumphant over the Beyonder then even Captain America or Hal Jordan (without a ring) would win because they have equal willpower?

Doom can't win this battle. Doom has high-level magic, personal adapters that haven't failed in siphoning all kinds of energy, immediate time manipulation abilities built-in to his armor, AND no jobber aura, which allow him to do so much more with his superiority in general. Doom can't help but win this battle. Originally posted by AsbestosFlaygon

Celestial tech should by association also be impressive, yes. What Apocalypse does with Celestial tech... is not as cleanly impressive automatically... unless you're thinking of some specific examples.

In HOM, Black Bolt defeated Apocalypse. I don't know of any other occasions in which they fought each other. High Evolutionary was not at full power when Apocalypse defeated him because at full power, the High Evolutionary was able to contend with Galactus. Also, Apocalypse defeated Loki via sheer cunning and trickery. Otherwise, Apocalypse would have lost. Apocalypse defeating Cable is not an impressive feat since Cable was never at full power when contending with Apocalypse. Apocalypse may be more versatile, but that does not determine the outcome of this battle.

Doom has worked with technology similar to, or greater than Celestial Technology. For example, Watcher Technology, Pre-Retcon Beyonder's Technology, etc. Furthermore, he mastered the use of both pretty quickly.

I would love to see this battle, nevertheless. I wonder whose name sounds more menacing.

Apocalypse mentally controls his Celestial tech.

I would still give Doom a chance, with 1 whistle at least, but those pre-boss airship levels really eat up a lot of time.
