Prep War! John Constantine Vs Dr. Doom

As brilliant as Constantine is, both in DCnU and Vertigo, Doom tends to be even more ridiculous.
But more importantly is the fact that Doom could potentially match John in magical prep, then just punch a hole through his chest. I mean both have achieved equally insane stuff with magical prep so they're probably tied there, but John cannot simply fight Doom.
Admittedly, on those lines DCnU John has a better chance, as he seems to have more of your usual comic book magical power at any given time than Vertigo John, who was very much a prep god based upon knowing the rules of magic and people.
But tbf you could argue either way, both Doom and Constantine have defeated gods and demons with just their wits and such, but honestly Doom's dual expertise should probably give him the win here, as Constantine doesn't really have a way to deal with hundreds of Doom bots and other heavily armed inventions just shooting/punching him to death.

Nice. One trick Constantine could do is the spell where whatever Doom will do to him, will reflect right back on Doom.

Doom doesn't care.
He will overcome.

Same could be said about John as well. He's come back through some hard times.

When did he come back from being ripped apart?
I thought I read most of his stuff.

Isn't the respect thread only about Hellblazer's John?
Don't know tbh, I don't like reading those.
