No prep.
No BFR.
Original versions of both.

this will be closed for spite. snow has zero chance to win this unless he gets prep. even then i can't think of anything off hand he would have to protect himself from black's tp. might be something i guess....

By ejecting him into space.

Because Superman needs gravity to fly, or something. In other words, an Elseworlds Superman, with different rules.

cdtm
Anyways:

Snow insta froze Dracula, so he might be able to hold his own in a quickdraw.

If he was close enough, which he shouldn't be. Black tp/tk kills.

As I understood it, he was stripped of his solar charge and ejected into space. He was later shown floating in space, super-dead.

Nope, whoever told you that was a liar, or didn't read it. smile

Elijah talks over the loudspeaker as his trap is sprung, and explains that he theorized Superman's ability to fly was dependant on using gravity. Put him in a vaccume, like the trap room suddenly did, and he loses all ability to control his flight.

Digi
He also mentions being cut off from diffused light. But sure, ok, don't really care. It's Planetary, and an Elseworlds-style story at that. Not really vs. forum fodder. I mentioned it as a joke, and posted the scan in response to the question about it.

cdtm
Whoops, skimming at work. ^_^;

And you're right, I looked at the scan and he does mention sunlight reduction. Although, in Planetary's case, it seems to operate more like the infamous Nuclear Man from Superman 4, where he instantly weakens.

No worries. And yeah, I mean, we learn zero from that scan, tbh. It's a one-off story without much context. It was just a fun story...I'm not trying to argue for Elijah in the thread or anything.

The Batman bullet deflection scene was awesome.

You could almost believe Frank Miller wrote that story, considering how Batman saves the day and gets the girl, while Clark ends up dead. smile

I enjoyed that part too. smile

That whole book (Crossing Worlds) is a pretty cool look at Batman. In the very next issue, Planetary ends up in Gotham city and in confrontation with Batman, where a dimensional rift is porting them between universes and changing the iteration of Batman. Adam West-era Batman, Dark Knight Returns, and a few others show up. It's a lot of fun.

Yup. While I think it's too subjective to be accurate even with just my personal faves, if I were forced to name a top 5 all-time, Planetary might be #1, and would only be fighting with 1-2 others for that distinction.

Good stuff...thumb up

Unfortuante matchup considering that the entire premise for Planetary is Snow being ****ed by telepathy.

DarkSaint85
Yeah, I reckon Chester stomps pretty badly here.

^^^Guess we have winner.
