    Hancock is the single worst Will Smith movie I am aware of. It is outrageous that they made him into some worthless alcohol guy.

    heels1785 and Darth Punk - did you coordinate your numbers? Or is it a happy coincidence on two of these fights? I'm geeking out putting numbers together.

    "Hey, remember that time you and Rocket tricked me by lowering my confidence and I didn't have a much-stronger telepath than you stopping you from doing that? Yeah, about that..."

    Invicible TRUMPED with Omni-Man vs. Mongul (Yellow Lantern)

    Interesting fight. Am I to assume since it says "Yellow Lantern" that he's got none of the Paling Powers, and just his normal (original) powerset + the ring?

    While they're great matches, I'm not particularly optimistic on any of them.

    The one I figure I've got the best shot in is the 1-on-3. I imagine the strategy is to try to physically overwhelm and/or contain Doomsday, and none of those three are near powerful enough to do so, individually. Together, possibly? Tony's not going to be any help without prep, so it really comes down to Vision and a rather low-tier Lantern.

    I'd pick Thor over Bill myself, and the way that Bolt has been judged in this draft leads me to believe that is going to be an uphill battle, even with prep.

    We Are (Definitely Not) Family vs. Hundred Acre Woods Most Wanted



    Talisman (Prepared) vs. Moondragon TRUMPED with Black Bolt : Not 100% sure on this one, either way.

    Doomsday vs. Iron Man TRUMPED with Vision AND Kilowog : Ugh, don't like this match. 3 flyers who are smart combatants vs a guy who can't fly and isn't all that smart.

    Beta Ray Bill Vs. Thor : Didn't Beta already beat Thor? That was supposedly an all out fight.



    dp4m's Secret Team to fight Inflation vs. Charybdis Revenge



    Gladiator TRUMPED with Professor X vs. Rachel Summers

    Professor X (forfeit) vs. Black Panther (prepared)

    Invicible TRUMPED with Omni-Man vs. Mongul (Yellow Lantern) : Not sure



    108 Years to Get Harry Carayed Away vs. The Yak's Inferno, Presented by the Daily Bugle



    Angela vs. Dex-Star TRUMPED with Atrocitus

    Captain Marvel TRUMPED with Human Torch vs. Magneto TRUMPED with Apocalypse

    I believe Odin rigged that fight so that Thor would lose.

    I thought it was a straight up one on one to see who should take Mjolnir......the result that Beta won and Odin felt it appropriate to create Stormbreaker. It's been a while since I read it though. Thor probably has more high end feats though, but the fight is about as close as it gets I think.

    Ok, these are not my words, just some random off the interweb - but he/she sound like they know their stuff

    "Thor.

    BRB has never beaten Thor on fair ground.

    The first time they fought. BRB knocked out Donald Blake, not Thor.

    The second time they fought. Odin had set the battle field. The battle field was favor of BRB, he had terrain advantage by a large degree. He knew the terrain inside and out, he even manage to sneak attack Thor. On top of this, the heat of the planet helped BRB revive faster than Thor. BRB barely won this fight. BRB acknowledges this and even admits to Thor, if it wasn't for the battle field, he would have lost. In fact, he goes further on to say, he would have lost if the fight was anywhere else.

    Thor also shows more versatility and power with the hammer than BRB does.

    Nothing beats the original when it comes to hammers".

    Since we're copying and pasting from Comic Vine battle threads, here's a gent who also sounds like he knows what he's talking about who refutes Punk's guy who knows what he's talking about with regard to what they're talking about.

    Regular Bill beat Thor twice. No reason he shouldn't beat him with the extra power provided by Stormbreaker. The 2 min rule matters not. Its not like Thor was unaware of his own time limit. Odin supposedly rigging the 2nd fight is only speculation. There is nothing official stating Odin did anything. It's just popular opinion from fans nothing more. Also as far as official stats are concerned Bill beats him there as well.

    So, cursory searching on Mongul -- since we're in the "**** DC!" Prime Earth era -- doesn't have much with his original powerset, other than he (and Non) collectively were stopped essentially by Wonder Woman on her own (Superman/Batman #11). Sinestro apparently defeated him and expelled him from the Sinestro Corps (Sinestro #9).

    Is this a transitive property thing? I'm thinking the two Greyson men can take either of Sinestro or WW as a duo, and should be able to take a single Mongul -- Superman can take him by himself, these two should be able to do it together.
