Thor vs Wonder Woman in Pure Slugfest

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.



Starscream M
No weapons, no energy attacks. Just pure physical brawl. Who wins?

CosmicComet
Thor gets one shotted

srankmissingnin
Equalized speed and Thor rag dolls her, otherwise WW is too fast.

pym-ftw
WW and Thor have full armor and weapons?

Cogito
Wonder Woman. Superior speed and skill, roughly equal strength and durability

PillarofOsiris
WW should win without much of a problem here.

carver9
Someone told me that Wonder Woman is at the minimum 5 times stronger than Thor so if that is true, WW wins. Her strength>>>Kurse.

Did I even say it was you? Don't act like you don't go in threads always bringing my name up. You do it every day, even when I'm not online.

Wonder Woman is not stronger than Thor, she probably has better speed showings though, but Thor has been shown on occasion to have extremely fast reflexes, countering lightning, laser, psionic, etc attacks after they have been initiated, as well as speedsters and other godly beings.

Speed will not be the issue a lot of people think it will.

CosmicComet
Thor does have super reflexes.

But just having super reflexes isn't good enough. There are tiers to speed.

And Thor is in the hypersonic range. Catching tank shells and reacting to lightning occasionally (lightning on average is only like mach 30 or so).

Which means he's absolutely too slow for Wonder Woman.

Every Thor combat speed feat, can be topped by Batman.

Well, Thor did swing his hammer twice light speed once like 20 or 30 years ago. That's the best speed feat I've ever seen from him. Wonder Woman is clearly MUCH faster. And despite what some people are saying here, I think she's either equal in strength to Thor, or superior. She's also more durable as well. Her skill is far beyond his also. If Thor had his hammer and could use lightning, he'd win for the majority, but in this fight he's going down.

IIRC the last time they encountered each other QS convincingly outclassed him in sheer speed but Thor punked him by slamming Mjolnir into the ground throwing him off balance.

Really? I keep hearing lightning through around and something way more uber then that

the Darkone
Thor, is more experience, just as skilled better durability and better damage soak ability, she will give him hell, but Thor is her superior.

That's quite a "rough" estimate on speed and durability. She def wins in the speed dept...

Don't know the history here. Only this year have I begun participating in any KMC discussion or debate thread (as opposed to the often stellar character respect threads on these boards).
People have implied by association that Wonder Woman is at least several thousand times stronger than Thor in other places on this forum.

But it's been many years ago now, so perhaps people have forgotten.

Use "ctrl+f" to locate the phrase "stronger than thor" after clicking the following link, for instance, which I found by simply Googling, in quotes, the phrases "wonder woman" and "stronger than thor" ...

That's one of the hammer's powers, nothing to do with Thor's speed. The hammer can got FTL, Thor holds the leather thong and it spins around.

Just never thought I'd see the day I'd favour Wonder Woman over Thor in a slugfest, he once upon time was view as roughly as strong as Superman and had almost legendary damage soak, now not so much.

He's resisted getting brain damage a lot longer than anyone else in that situation would. That counts for something I think.

JakeTheBank
Thor does have feats of resisting soul/spiritual based attacks, but on the average, I don't think he would fare better against the lasso than people like Ares or Darkseid would.

If it's a slugfest where they trade blows with one another until the other drops, Thor wins. Otherwise, Diana's speed and skill in H2H would close the gap in strength and stamina.

Also lol @ Batman being able to top all of Thor's reaction feats.

Don't think Batman could hit a charging Iron Man in mid flight provided he had the strength/durability to do so. Not without PIS, which seems to basically be a power of his, anyway.

Considering Iron Man wasn't holding back (ie. he wanted to try and force Thor to register with the government - lol @ Tony, btw) and had no reason to not fly at Thor at full speed, unless Batman is amped by PIS, he's not going to have the reflexes to hit Iron Man in time before he got bullrushed.

Y'know at this point, it would just be easier to call you stupid, but that would probably be mean.

The fact that you think that Iron Man isn't faster than a bullet based on the fact that he can be seen by the readers makes it hard not to, though. Flash is drawn so that we can see him, for Christ's sake.

ya know, just cuz he might've hit bullet speed at some point, doesn't mean anytime he's in flight he hits bullet speed

But anyways as Jake mentioned it's hard not to call names when the situation frankly does call for it. Ironman isn't faster than a bullet because we can see him.....?

facepalm

You're absolutely wrong. Iron Man can and has gone past bullet speed within the atmosphere of Earth multiple times. It's how he can fly across the world when needbe. His acceleration time is ridiculously fast as well. I'd suggest reading Iron Man comics, but what's the point?

And why wouldn't he be using his maximum speed and acceleration against a guy whom he knows outclasses him in virtually every way that matters in a fight? Especially when he wants to force him to register? Makes no sense. At all. Even less sense for you to assume that Batman could perform the same feat if he had the strength to do so.

When Iron Man has no inclination, motive, or logical reason to hold back, there's no reason to assume he's not moving at upwards of his maximum speed.

jake, so anytime I see superman charging an enemy I can say he's approaching near light speed now by your logic?

anyways, I'm with srank in that I think any streetleveler could tag a charging iron man. its not that impressive a reaction feat imo.

LMAO

How did this become about whether or not Iron Man can fly faster than a bullet? FYI... Ironman can fly many times faster than a bullet.

Still Thor's combat speed feats < top tier streets. That time Namor carved the fish statue is better than anything Thor has ever done in terms of practical application of combat speed. cool

Superman =/= Iron Man in terms of how much they hold back, their inclination to go all out and when, and flight speed...and that's just for starters. If you want to make more of an ass out of yourself than normal, sure, make that claim.

Well, if you cared to actually read Thor comics instead of come in with your misconceptions and get butthurt when proved wrong or showed off as being silly, you probably wouldn't feel that way.

Being perfectly honest, how many times have you entered a Thor thread making a wild claim, only to be proved wrong? Like that time you said Thor's power over the weather is limited to natural scope or that Thor couldn't summon rain to stop Hulk?

My God, your butthurt knows no bounds.

I've never said that Hulk wasn't stronger than Thor. In terms of actual power output, though, I don't see how anyone could argue that Hulk is more powerful than Thor, especially when you look at the people Hulk fights and the people Thor fights. Pretty obvious that Marvel considers Hulk stronger and Thor more powerful.

Thor's rain =/= normal rain. That's the part you won't - or can't - comprehend. You not liking it doesn't change the fact that Thor's control over the weather goes well beyond the realm of what's natural for planet Earth. You denouncing it as PIS doesn't make it so.

Seriously, Bruce, take your butthurt and go home and be a family man.

Fair enough. Panels in themselves are sketchy in terms of time passage (the scene of Iron Man going to space in a few panels was being used as lightspeed, and there's no real way to quantify that as truth, imo). Sounds impressive, though, if the writer/artists intent was that it happened in seconds or so.

In any case, you and I aren't going to agree on this topic, which is fine. But you're not being a total asshat about it, so there's that.

Baiting?

This is a Thor thread. The issue of his speed is relevant to the discussion. I don't think Thor's speed feats put him above street level (and I'm right). The fact that I can say this and that it can't be immediately kiboshed by Thor's strongest supports should vindicates my stance. It's easy to post scans and it would only take a handful, and I've been saying the same thing for years now, and it's gone to length scan wars more than once without a single person being able to definitively prove that Thor has greater than street reflexes.

Get real.

For the record, Starscream, and I actually mean this with your best interests at heart, you wouldn't nearly get as much shit thrown in your face if you at least had the decency and common sense to just admit "I don't know" when it comes to some of the issues which come up about comic books.

I said right off the bat that I wasn't aware of all of thor's reaction feats and simply asked for some examples of recent ones...you can go back and check my comments

Your lack of knowledge in regards to Thor didn't stop you from claiming that his reaction feats weren't any better than Batman's.

Everytime Thor has fought Gladiator, he is fighting a Pre-Crisis analogue of Superman who never got depowered, and look how well he does against him.

I give Thor a slight edge over Diana in a normal matchup; pure h2h slugfest, I'd say Diana has more than even odds.

How is Gladiator a Pre-Crisis analogue of Superman? Inspired by him (as are the rest of the Shiar Guard inspired by the Legion of Superheroes), but in terms of power and formidability, he's not Pre-Crisis level. Debatable that he's even post-crisis Superman level overall.

He was created in the late 70's as part of a deliberate analogue team of The Legion Of Super Heroes in X-Men. He is as much a copy of Superman as Hyperion, with the same powers and power level Supes himself had at that time, which is pre-crisis level. He has planet moving feats.

Gladiator is weaker than post crisis superman let alone pre crisis superman.

Off of pure fts minus speculation, no one really has fts comparable to Gladiator. Gladiator has some of the best fts out of any Herald imo.

Yeah, and post crisis Superman has moved planets. The "planet" Gladiator moved didn't really look that large either. And if you think anyone who can move a planet is equal to PC Superman, you really have no clue what PC Superman's power levels were.

I'm going for WW for the slight majority since i don't think she punches as fast as superman but her reflexes and mobility would be quite an advantage. It would be quite prolonged though as Thor does seem quite durable and quite possibly stronger than Diana.

Possible perhaps, the mere though of losing to a woman might drive Thor nuts and succumb to warrior madness which upon he will utterly stomps her.

Doesn't matter in those feats (assisted or not) he exerted a force over 50 Earth weights. This is like lifting a weight heavier than 50 Earths stacked.

Remember it's not that you move a planet but how fast you move it and against what force you move it. Superman (with help or not) accelerated Earth at great speeds against Starbreaker's pull and the Sun's pull.

Funny how Byrne's most known for writing a weak Superman, and wrote a pretty weak Namor, yet trumped up third tier character Gladiator...

Also, when Superman had help moving a planet, there was an opposing force acting against them, so it was probably well beyond planet moving.

Does that feat count even though it was intended to be pre-crisis? Either way Superman and Hal were losing ground until the rest of the JLA took down Starbreaker. Don't really see how you could say Supes showed "well beyond" planet moving strength in that instance.

It was intended to be byrne superman. He was the only one pulling and a skyfather level being was pushing it who was growing stronger at every moment. Its beyond planet moving. Gladiator hasn't moved any planet to my knowledge, he just broke one with a few punches.

Wait, are you saying that a sky father level being was using his sky father level powers to perform a physical task, i.e Pushing the planet against superman's pull? Shouldn't skyfather level beings when amping their strength be far and above herald characters like Superman? Then how was superman able to counter this and not have his arms ripped off?

pffft Gladiator wishes he were Pre-FLASHPOINT Superman, let alone Pre-CRISIS.

Pulling on Hal's construct.

Which could, in turn, be moved by Hal.

So it may have been a duel effort.

Starbreaker is an evolved sun eater which is his larvae form. He casually tosses novas, pushes planets in sun, absorb entire suns etc. He is easily a skyfather level being. He was using his power to push earth in sun. Superman is just that much strong. Keep in mind that was intended to be byrne superman.

Hal specifically said "pull harder" to superman and superman was the only one who felt that starbreaker was getting more powerful, hal was astounded why they were losing ground. Not to mention hal wasn't shown in position to pull at all like kyle when they moved moon. He was having his hand full getting his construct remain in one piece which was cracking under pressure. Not that it would make you stop speculating how hal was the one who did most of the work.

So it may have been a duel effort. i think Hal was helping him by holding the planet from ripping apart and giving something for superman to hold. Crazy feat in itself for Hal because the construct was able to keep the planet from tearing apart and that it was durable enough not to shatter while superman was using it to lug the planet.

When was it stated to be Byrne Superman? It was based on a Wein's JLA he wrote in the 70's, hell the line-up and cheesy dialogue alone should tell you it was pre-crisis.
They were losing ground until Starbreaker was beaten. Again, I don't see how you can call it beyond planet moving when they were failing at holding the Earth in place and it was a shared feat.

Gladiator has moved objects that blocked star lanes, and is stated to be a planet mover pretty much everytime he makes an appearance in a major event. Not that it means an awful lot when comparing him to the elite heralds who can handle that kind of power though.

It was stated in the comic as being a shared ft. Hell, Superman even said "we have to pull harder". Can't get any clearer than this. Abhi is making up stuff again.

Diana for the win. She's traded blows with Superman, a Doomsday Clone, Genocide, Etrigan, schooled both Supergirl and Powergirl, held her own against Amazo who had the combine strength of Superman, The Martian and herselves, speedblitzed the General alonside Superman. The fight will be over before you know it. She'll tear apart Goldlocks. wink

Takes one to know one, I suppose.

Imo, Thor probably wins. Diana is faster and arguably more skilled, but Thor has a strength and durability advantage that I don't think can be ignored.

the Darkone
Thor has trade blows with Classic Juggernaut, Mangog, Kurse, Durok, Beta Ray Bill etc won some and lost some, Thor has experience, durability, damage soak ability, skilled warrior himself. This Thor type of fight, not Wonder Woman's, she's good don't get me wrong Wonder Woman will put a great fight, slug fest is not her strong point IMO.

How can the planets ever really look large? Just think about how much an artist cheats to make this feat happen on the page. Superman would be a microscopic pinprick on the side of said planet (imagine him upside down in the middle of an intersection, telling everyone to move back because he's pushing the planet, thank you very much) - that is what it would really look like. But the limitations of a comics page shows the planet as looking like it could only fill a tall warehouse, because we have to see him on the side of it. Or think to the Celestials during The Infinity Gauntlet, directing whole planets to launch at Thanos with the IG; they were made to look like large beachballs as they tossed them the Titan's way. Large planets, small planets - you can't tell that at all.

And again - he was created to be Superman in another universe; that's why he gets called an analogue character (along with Hyperion, Supreme, Majestic etc.) becasue he is a deliberate photocopy of him and what his powerlevels were at that time. If DC was doing anything right with Superman in the late 1970's/early 1980's it's that they stopped ever bringing up the silly powers like super knitting and mathematics, and feats like a sneeze that destroys a (conveniently uninhabited) solar system. But still a massively powerful character who nonetheless got matched in strength by lots of non-flying characters - Mongul, Darkseid, Solomon Grundy - none of whom ever flew and seemingly moved a planet.

There's no dodging in a pure slugfest. It's suppose to be two characters taking turns punching each other until one is floored.
