SS has come to the Top Cow Universe in his quest to sate Galactus Hunger... the ppl of the City see him come down from the sky and some panic other rejoice believing it is the rapture..
SS: The End has come for this World. Spend your last moments with those you love for "He" approaches...
Not even close. I think the biggest thing any of them has ever done is sink a navy task force, and that wasn't with blasty stuff, but rather Darkness constructs (which are fairly easy to deal with using bright light), and much larger in scale than most stuff they do by far. These beings mostly act at a low/mid meta level.
And those are the big powers. Magdalena's just a street leveler plus her anti-sin light, which isn't all that hard to deal with and has limited range.
they're all underachievers, but when the darkness' and witchblade's child was born she caused some impressive fireworks and there were talks about universal level power. But yes, SS would stomp them all.

witchblade could do damage no doubt about it, but no way she could hit him if he didn't want to be touched. he could destroy effortlessly from orbit if he chose. if the witchblade were given to someone that might be an option. ww used the witchblade and tore up the jla iirc. otherwise top cow (which is very cool btw) has no chance.

agreed. i wonder what the witchblade would do if given to darkness or magdalena though? the spear could certainly do harm to the ss as well. he CAN be stabbed and incapacitated by magical weapons. it's been done to him before. i just don't see anyway they could actually hit him. maybe if darkness covered him in demons to slow him or something? reaching. there are too many ways for ss to win.
The Darkness can't use it (and if he did, it'd likely be less than effective, redundant more than anything else. They aren't designed to work with each other, the three powers exist in balance with each other), and the Magdalena probably couldn't either but at minimum wouldn't be much stronger, her powers are pretty minor and more Angelus-related.
The darklings and constructs the Darkness uses would be easy to brush aside, and they're his best tool. Though having them erupt from Surfer's own shadow on the board would likely be startling.
The Darkness and the Angelus are opposing forces with the Witchblade as the balance.
Also remember, the Witchblade chomped a *lot* of arms of unworthy people in between it's hosts, and I think... one guy? was ever able to wield it, and even then it was basically using some other magic to get it iirc, not really being considered properly chosen.

been years since i glanced through those top cow. i actually enjoyed the marvel x-over though where mephisto was causing havok. there was also a superman/darkness x-over i sort of enjoyed. his demons caused kal some problems which is why i wondered if the demons could hinder ss somehow. i actually think in a book there might be some semi-plausible way for the team to MAYBE score a win just because of their magic and ss's character. in a forum setting i can't see anyway for the team to win.
Yea, that they're magic might help out, but on the flip side, the Darknesses' stuff all dissolves in light, and everything they have is relatively fragile next to Surfer's attack power (then again, what isn't?).

he has no innate defense either.... he can be--and has been--stabbed right through with a magic dagger. mephisto has melted his skin off. there are other instances. and superman doesn't have an inherent weakness--it's just that, like ss, he doesn't have any special defense. magic affects clark the same way it does everyone else most of the time.

meh, Darkness skills just arent on the level when your talking premier heralds like Norrin. His constructs are too easily countered, and how would he even touch him?

as was mentioned he could draw the demons from ss's shadow on his board (cool idea btw). but i'm still not sure they would be enough. like i said, i could see a comic battle between this group being a lot different from a forum battle.
the darkness is supposed to be 50% of reality and the entity itself is clearly abstract, but estacado is a major **** up. their mythology has mde it clear that it's not about the power, but about who weilds it.
jack had ben getting better with his constructs and molecular manipulation, but he's returned to his usual incompetent self now.
Besides, SS can just go radiant nova and wipe the darkness from the earth.
