Here we are. Someone on who the PS wont be a factor, and who can physically beat GR down.
Pre52 Captain Marvel. Danny Ketch GR.
This is regular GR (as much as that term applies in comics), NOT the amped version(s) i've seen used in other threads to clinch a win; the ones that are equivalent to sun dipping Supes, rune kinging Thor, world warring Hulk etc.
CM is at full non sharing power but doesnt get rune war dipped, neither does GR.
Now, my points, and then you guys will hopefully chime in:
"The Penance stare WILL work on CM."
No, it wont.
The World's Mightiest Mortal...is just a kid at heart. CM's purity and innocence are a defining part of his character.
He was chosen for his kind, optimistic, courageous and altruistic nature.
GR's stare didnt work on Deadpool and the Punisher. The former got a highlight reel and the latter just stared back.
There can NOT be a case made where it will work on CM and not them.
But even if there is...
CM's Wisdom of Solomon gives him a variety of abilities, knowledge, perception, comprehension, good conscience and insight.
Also hypnosis, so, a stare down might, just might, actually favor CM.
By mystical means, Solomon is actually able to speak to Billy during his times of need.
Solomon is in CM's head and talks to Billy. That at LEAST puts him right there with Venom, who GR nocked himself out trying the PS on.
"well okay, but CM cant win, GR cant be beaten or killed."
Killing's not what CM is about.
CM can beat GR, though.
Before you say no, lets remember what a win is.
Molecular disruption is a win. GR will put himself back together, but many a comic has ended with the bad guy zapped, only to come back. Its still a win for the hero.
I personally think CM's lightning can do it, but i'm not basing my whole argument on that.
Incapacitation is a win. Bury GR under a mountain. Hit him so hard he blacks out. Both wins. Again, many a comic has seen the villain nocked out or buried. Win for the hero.
Even on VS boards, characters win when the other gets "nocked the **** out". These characters WILL wake back up.
The fight's now over though, and they lost. VS threads arent an infinite loop, and this one's not, either.
GR is durable, but hasnt got the power to do these things to CM.
There you go. Eye to eye, CM has this. Physically, CM has this.
And, in case anyone just wants to rebut with a silly post (lookin' at you, Leon ), because its more fun and easier to do, i have silly too:
1. Billy Batson idolizes Superman. Thats GOT to be worth points on THIS board!
2. CM is usually drawn with such squinty eyes, GR couldnt lock a PS on him in any event....
3. NO one who's saltiest exclamation is "HOLY MOLY" is freakin' getting PS'd!
After all this i'm about 90% sure the first response will be "GR stomps."
