who wins? stick out tongue

JakeTheBank
So DCnU Superman vs. a Thor, whom I presume can only use feats from AvX?

I'm sure this thread will be a riot before it gets closed.

Damborgson
Yep, exclusive feats from AvX for Thor

JakeTheBank
Thor could probably give a good fight, actually.

carver9
A dose of heat vision ko's Thor. It isn't just AvX either where Thor is getting dropped like that. He is getting dropped in the Avengers title as well. It's all around.

Zack Fair
This will be fun.

JakeTheBank
What has DCnU heat vision done that is equal to or superior to what has KO'd Thor in AvX, Carver?

carver9
Ok, I take it back...Supes drops him with a couple of well placed blows. Do you dispute this Jake?

It's debatable.

Do you think DCnU Superman would fare significantly better against the Phoenix Force/Phoenix Five than Thor would?

Blight
Based on his reading feat, I'd say he'd fair better.

The Five, anyway.

if colossus is able to fell thor, then I'd give it to superman

No but that's kind of implying ABC logic, especially since we know the tricks and trades of Mjlonir.

JakeTheBank
Colossus is also significantly amped by both the PF and Cytorrak.

carver9
@Starcream...

That's not a normal Colossus and that Colossus would kill this version of Superman easily.

So what leads you to believe that DCnU Superman is >= the Phoenix Force/P5 if you're using AvX's instances of Thor being defeated by them as evidence Kal would do the same?

That's a fair question, I think.

Starscream M
well, superman would still have a fairly significant speed advantage

I never said this version of Superman or pre reboot Supes is on the Phoenix 5 level but they are not the only peeps that has dropped Thor. Captain Mar-vell has dropped him as well, then he is getting dropped by things that other members of the Avengers is withstanding.

This is truth.

AvX Thor comes complete with glass jaw and easy knockout feature... (some reassembly required).

Such as what?

Mar-Vell was clearly amped by the Phoenix Force, as stated and noted several times.

Also, if that scan in the OP is to be taken at face value, Thor somehow took a beating from two Phoenix avatars and survived, in addition to one of them wielding a sword that is cater made for killing and harming magical beings.

Not sure how that's a low feat at all.

Let's use a High Herald as an example. Gladiator...it took 3 of the Phoenix members to repeatedly pound on Gladiator for no telling how long, in order to drop him in a prolong fight. Thor got two pieced by Colossus and Magic. This also doesn't include Emma soloing him or Namor embarrassing him. That throws high Herald out the window.

Then we have the Avengers bringing the fight to the 5, everyone getting attacked, hell, Spiderman even withstands a beat down but then we have Thing carrying Thor yet again. He isn't operating at Heralds level, not even close. Superman isn't either but I would put him above this version of Thor imo. Not far above but enough to pull the majority.

It really wasn't that much of a beating.

Of course not. But using examples of Thor being beaten by people amped by the PF and/or other sources as evidence as why Superman would do the same is silly.

The fact that they are able to beat Thor, whose entire history still counts as being a high herald, especially under the guy who writes his solo series (Matt Fraction) makes them >= high heralds. That's the clear point you're not getting. It was also made clear the PF was holding back when they dealt with Kallark and not in any danger at all.

Colossus is amped by the PF and Cytorrak and Magik has the Soul Sword which is a weapon specifically designed to beat magical and mystic foes...of which Thor clearly is. So how again is that a low feat? Normal Namor has always been able to give Thor a decent scrap if Thor doesn't go all out, and he effectively no sells Mjolnir. Pretty obvious the Phoenix Five are intended to be > top tiers conventionally without further diving up the PF amongst them. That's without mentioning the fact that Namor easily wrecked Rulk's arm. Pretty easy to put two and two together and get four.

So, again, the fact that the Phoenix Five can beat Thor doesn't mean you can abirtrarily decide that DCnU Superman can.

I never said the 5 isnt greater than High Herald level...they are. Why would I vote for Namor over Prime if I didn't think he was over Herald levels but you are clearly missing the point. It's not WHO is beating Thor, its HOW he is getting defeated.

Lol...read above Jake. I never said this version of Superman would do anything to any of the 5. It's how Thor is being defeated which is the problem.

JakeTheBank
Originally posted by Starscream M

"Might" doesn't fill me with much confidence.

I'm still failing to see how Thor getting beat up by guys portrayed as being more powerful than Thor consistently means Superman wins...especially when Thor's prior history and status as a high herald/top dog still count.

That would be like a new villain showing up and beating up Superman consistently for the arc he's starring and then arguing because he beat up Superman, Superman must be weakened now. It's obvious that the intent is that new villain is >= Superman not that Superman got depowered.

You're either not getting this on purpose or incapable of.

HOW they're beating him is easy: they''re portrayed as being more powerful than him, whether in the form of energy projection or physical might amped by the Phoenix.

This really isn't hard. How does Thor getting beat up multiple times by foes clearly shown to be operating above his level consistently mean he's not at high herald levels? Makes no sense, and even less sense to argue that Superman beats him because of it.

At least you finally acknowledge that it was stupid comment.

JakeTheBank

Easily snap Rulk's arm, beat up Gladiator while holding back, take on entire teams of Avengers which include the likes of Thor and Rulk, etc.

That's why limiting a character to an specific arc and barring other feats is a problem because when a threat, specifically a new one, arrives and is shown to be > than Character X, it's clear the intent is to show how this character is more powerful than X, and operating at a level greater than the one of the character they've beaten up. It's also why arguing AvX has made Thor weaker is a horrible leap of logic when the opposite is much more obvious and makes more sense:

They're just more powerful than he is. And Thor has always been high herald level and nothing AvX did changes that.

I really don't see what's hard about seeing that.

Considering Supermans speed was arguably below the flash but not by a huge margin in Justice League. Since this is only AvX Thors feats outside of this arc doesn't count. Speed could be a big advantage here unless he has shown some kind of speed feats.

Emma shoots diamonds through his body and takes him out with a couple of well placed blows.

Namor blasts him and takes him out whereas the same Namor states he is going to kill Black Panther and blasts him but BP is still awake.

Rulk and the other Avengers are awake from a full blast from one of the five but Thor is koed.

Metas are withstanding things that are dropping Thor.

Apparently, Thor managed to punch out a mutant with localized time manipulation which makes the mutant in question appear to have super speed of sorts.

Outside of that, I can't think of any explicit showings of speed other than Thor flying super fast and managing to hit Mar-Vell after Mar-Vell claimed he could see and perceive all of Thor's actions before they happened due to his amped Cosmic Awareness.

Uuuuummm...Flash was blitzing the hell out of Supes. Supes got one lick on a Flash that stopped moving and you call them "near".? No, just no. Looking at on panel fts, Thor will hit Supes just like others have.

If a meta level character endures something that KO's a high herald, that's the very definition of PIS. facepalm

That would be like citing Batman soloing the JLA and arguing the League has been nerfed because Batman kicked their ass.

And this arc has Thor endure the Force incarnate's fire and stay conscious.

So the blasts that Phoenix Namor hits Thor with to knock him out are the same ones he's hitting Cap and Black Panther with. What an astounding deduction.

In the meantime, Thor fought the full Phoenixforce three times, stalling and crippling it in two of those fights. An entity that's been one-shotting planets left and right (and a herald).

AvX Thor wins.

thumb up

I mean, yes, this event has had Thor losing a lot and is far from well written, but it's clear - painfully so - that the PF and its hosts are portrayed as being > Thor. How that in turn means Thor is weak is beyond me, to say nothing of using these examples as evidence as to why Superman would win.

thats a pretty good feat imo. Though I can't give an entirely explicit answer to this other then Thor may have some good durability feats as you previously mentioned but Superman has a lot more with all of his different appearances in the New 52. I would say that getting hit by the OE and living is a pretty decent showing also.

He's a high herald with absurd feats that dip into that category of trans level.

Which is consistent with Thor's entire history.

Two separate thoughts there, Brucie.

Thor losing doesn't make an event poorly written.

The mutant community being vilified and character assassinated and people acting wildly out of character make this a poor event. I'd rather have a good story than good feats to argue for a battleboard.

Though going by on panel proof superman was moving with speed near the flash. He was perceiving the flash fast enough to see him moving yet when he was grabbing at him he was just missing each time.

No. I was speaking of that isolated incidence. It was obvious The Flash was much faster if you read his book. So clearly I meant he was near the flash in that incidence. Would you say thor could have done any better then superman did while flash was moving at that speed? But if you would prefer a different instance ...remember when Flash and Supers was running from the OE? The Flash's face was obviously showing tiring. A moment longer and it would have hit him. After that panel superman was hit unless you are going to say one beam was moving faster then the other.....

You can't even compare the two. When did Thor get hit on repeatedly by two Phoenix 5 members? Never happened. That was a prolong battle and Thor probably would have died looking at the 90 times he was one shotted during this arc. One Phoenix user knocked him the hell out, imagine what two would have done if they kept pounding on him like they did Gladiator.

yes he picked up a superman that wasn't even looking in the direction of darkside and ran......until he let him go and superman took off flying.

Im in no way saying superman is as fast as flash as that would be very hypocritical of me. All I'm saying is these two instances he was near the speed of what flash was showing in these instances. how is that so hard to comprehend? and you still never answered my question.....

It was indeed a single Phoenix user that put glads down also. Namor just came after he was done.

Understandable but both fts are unquantifable since we have no recollection on how fast Flash was going during those instances. I also don't believe Darkseid Omegas are anywhere near light speed. Then Darkseid was able to perceive both of them during that instance, someone that doesn't have a single showing of super speed.

What was your question?

90% of that fight took place off panel. Lol...the next time we see Gladiator after his fight against Cyclops, TWO Phoenix users was pounding on him.

Colossus and Magik didnt have a prolong fight against Thor, Glads got pounded on for no telling how long. Like I said, majority of the fight took place off panel but it sure as hell was ucmuch longer than any fight Thor been in and looking at the one shots he has endured, he probably would have died if he was put in Gladiator shoes.

What was your question?

lol In the scene where superman was trying to grab flash, in your opinion would Thor from AvX fair better or worse?

You mean Flash grabbing Superman? That was more of a flight ft for Superman so yes, he probably could since in AvX, it was stated that Mjlonir moves 3 times the speed of light and his hammer is what guides him.

BlackZero30x
no no. The part in the JL where superman managed to flick the flash. When superman was grabbing at him.

No, I don't think Thor could do it...he doesn't have the fts in AVX.

carver9
Superman has also ran 25000 mph and he has also read every medical book that was in a particular library in 5 minutes. I can't picture Thor doing any of that, even outside of AvX but I also don't consider Superman unhittable.

IIRC, it was 25000 mph which took him out of orbit.

Colossus and Magik didnt have a prolong fight against Thor, Glads got pounded on for no telling how long. Like I said, majority of the fight took place off panel but it sure as hell was ucmuch longer than any fight Thor been in and looking at the one shots he has endured, he probably would have died if he was put in Gladiator shoes.

I'd love to see how you quantified that only 10% of it took place on panel.

Thats because he got put down. From what I saw, Colussus delivered the finishing hit then Namor came and helped pound him. It's not like Gladiator would have fought back. He was done.

Prove they didn't. Thor has damage done that was not from a single swipe and punch. Chances are Thor used himself as a distraction so the others could run.

That's not a prolonged battle. Gladiator would have had to fight back for it to be a battle. He was finished and repeatedly beaten. Thats all.

Speculation based on nothing. Trying to make Gladiator getting put in a coma some sort of high showing lol. Thor did have the prolonged battle with Colossus and Magik. The evidence is in the OP. You're just wanking Gladiator. Like saying he did anything at all to Phoenix Force colossus other than smacking him and getting him to blink. Thor shattered Emma's entire Diamond form. But it still ultimately did nothing. Same as Gladiator.

lol @ Thor dying.

@Damborgson...

You don't make one bit of since and you probably wasn't reading the comic. We see Gladiator and Cyclops fighting...the next panel it shows Cyclops hugged up with Emma while Namor and Colossus is pounding on Gladiator. Gladiator face was bruised like he was fighting for days. Relook at the fight.

Then it skips again to an entire another scene once they take the camera away from Gladiator son. Majority of the fight took place off panel. This doesn't include Gladiator punching Colossus while having on a fresh outfit then the next time we see Gladiator, his suit is all ripped up. Majority, if not, ALL of that fight took place off panel.

Thor got worked more than once by one Phoenix user whereas they had to gangbang Gladiator. Get over it and move on.

Coming from you the irony is incredible.

For days lol. Stop. He got beat up, and there's nothing more to it. You also have never been in a fight in your life apparently. After enough hits , the face swells up pretty bad. Especially when they are so superior in strength and striking power as are the Phoenix 5. And it usually takes only a few short minutes. Not days.

Yeah the majority of the beat down took place off panel. It was still a beat down, not a fight. The last bit of Gladiator resistance shown was when he attacked Cyclops who was trying to reason as much as possible without having to beat the hell out of him. Then Gladiator tackled him (understandably of course) and the beat down began. There was no struggle in between. At best you could say both attacked him at once so he never had a shot.

also wtf? ALL of the fight took place off panel? What about the stuff on panel in the comic? Calm down lol.

They didn't have to do anything. They chose to beat the crap out of him together. At the end, no one had a mark on them except for Gladiator who was in a coma.

Get over what? You're the one who started spazzing for me agreeing with iceman. If you want someone to move on you do it. It's not hard to see you're trying to convince yourself more than me.

No concession at all since you are wrong. Didn't look like Emma was going all out on Thor either since she smiled through the beat down and made jokes as well.

I believe he read all the medical books in about 1 minute. 5 minutes was the time it took for the training and operation.

As for supes being unhittable, he can just about be if he chooses too. And he is just under flash in speed

Yah. I don't think Thor is THAT weakened, and I guess I am basing my feeling on DCnU Superman on just that - a feeling. He has a definite speed advantage over Thor, but whether he has the strength to make it count? That is why I give a split.

If Emma would've kept pounding on Thor, do you think he would have lived through it? What if all the Avengers was koed when Namor had Thor limp body in his hands and Namor decided to put all of his attention towards Thor without any outside interference. Would Thor have died if Namor kept pounding on his limp body? Yes or no.?

DarkSaint85
....He didn't knock Thor out. We've been over this lol. He was not limp - his arms and legs weren't limp. He was gripping Mjolnir, so not limp. His head was up - so not limp.

You can't be serious. Nova Prime has a speed advantage over Thor and based on strength fts, Nova is stronger than reboot Supes. Would you give Nova the majority as well? What about Surfer, Gladiator, Hyperion...all of whom have fts far superior to DCNU Supes? Let me know.

Like I said, its only a feeling, not based off feats...so...do I think DCnU Superman has the reserves, the tank, to call upon, that the others don't? Sure.

Thor wasn't ko'd. He had his head up, his helmet on, and a very tightly grasped Mjolnir in his hands. Namor was just yanking him by the cape.

So you're asking me, if Emma/Cyclops, who have been shown to be above Thor (by beating him), if they continued beating him when he was beaten....would they beat him into beaten submission with a beating?

Yes, lol.

Lol, what are you basing this off of though? He has been defeating on numerous of occasions and again, he doesn't have the fts equal or NEAR anyone I've mentioned. Are you tipsy tonight Dark? This doesn't sound anything like you. If you would give this version of Superman a split against Thor, pre reboot Superman should be able to slaughter Thor 10/10 with ease.

Which is my point. Emma koed Thor with some well place blows while smiling. Namor and Colossus POUNDED on Gladiator and he still wasn't out. Can't believe you don't see the difference in this, so freaking obvious.

I guess I AM power sharing a bit between pre and post DCnU, so whilst DCnU Superman does NOT have the feats to suggest he can hang with pre, I think (and this is a feeling) that given time, based on the history of these reboots, that DCnU Supes will soon be up there.

She ko'd him after a rain of Phoenix shards tore through him. Then a brutal beat down. Thor was out, and was up again soon. Gladiator was put in a coma Carver. That's the difference.

Nope. Its still a split. He COULD beat Thor, and Thor COULD beat him. Either outcome is likely.

Pre-reboot Superman could also beat Thor, but its more likely that Superman beats him, but not by a huge amount.

Gladiator was also pounded on by a Phoenix user that is amped off of Cytorrak powers and Namor as well. You clinging on to Emma, making her seem similar to two Phoenix users (and one of them is more powerful than her) is making you look foolish. You can't compare what Glads went through to what Thor went though...completely different. Thor got dropped and again, if she kept pounding (one user) he probably would have died.

Ms. Marvel and other Avengers didn't take an attack from the Phoenix and then recover enough to actually muster an attack against the Phoenix and damage them on their own. Pretty obvious Thor fared the best against the Force itself out of his teammates.
