Amph The Comic Book Character Draft ReduX [Ed: That's #10 for those keeping score]

Ty friends. Too bad the books I've written aren't this good.

 

I wish the scans in this thread could get larger. Anyway we can do that? Can we get a mod in here to help make them larger or something?

 

Fate's not Strange tho innit? I'm pretty sure Strange lost because those that voted thought Strange might need prep to accomplish a lot of his high end feats(something I don't entirely agree with), but I think you'll find Fate doesn't suffer the same malady. For the most part his feats are accomplished with things usually on his person.

Also, this isn't the same thing at all anyway. Why do people gotta be invoking previous battles that have nothing to do with anything?

 

Because we need consistency EF, we need consistency. Also I echo what Yak posted about Limbo and sick magician powers. I win.

 

Genis has the power to destroy the universe reality manipulation and has cosmic awareness. Prep makes him a beast.

 

Too bad that scan doesn't actually show that at all. No where in there does it mention that any energy abortion is going on at all. What Extant did in that scan to Waverider is absorb his entire being, "every erg of energy" and merges it with himself. That really isn't temporary, as he from that point on has those abilities.

Waverider is a being who is one with the time stream, all times were one to him, and he traveled time and reality at will. Jumping around the time line? That is exactly what he does.

Absorbing him and defeating him is no small feat. He has always shown the ability to stop time completely, he could travel at speeds faster than light (without manipulating time). He is extremely useful in a fight, he can pull an army of himself out of time to fight a foe, he can age or de-age others, empower them with chronal energy (what he is made of).

Even before he became Extant Hank exhibited great strength and durability. After he became Extant nobody got close enough to touch him, he blasted them with entropy energy or chronal energy and either erased them completely or aged them to the point of death. He does this mid fight constantly. I guess that is the drawback of being too powerful, since he doesn't let anyone get close enough to him to simply brawl people like Yak use that to suggest that he can't. :/

He tanked a shot from classic Sentinel in one of the earlier scans, and completely wiped out classic Fate with a single shot. Please show me what leads you to say that they are depowered, you made the claim but there is no fact to back that up. They were hand selected by Waverider for the assault on Extant, and he was trying to protect them from Extant's chronal assaults but he was still killing them with single entropy blasts.

I did a bit of reading on the limbo you linked to as well (even though there are multiple versions of both DC and Marvel limbos), the only ones who actually gain a significant level of power are the rulers of Limbo. Doom took it over once, and he didn't gain access to the vast amount of magical power provided by the promethium (the heart of Limbo) until after he became its ruler. So that point you brought up is just not true, magic users aren't just going to walk in there and become gods, because that isn't the way Limbo works in the comics.

It also clearly states that the changes someone experiences in Limbo take decades and only at the cost of their soul, I don't think that Sentinel will sacrifice his soul, he seems like the kind of guy that would fight that.

Based on how Limbo actually works, it doesn't seem logical (or realistic based on how the use it in comics) that any magic user would simply gain in power greatly by being here.

I did find this interesting fact though.

"Although Otherplace has a linear history, time within it is not rigid. Many points in its past and future are connected through naturally occurring temporal rifts, and its present is relative to the individual. Its history can be changed by travel through these rifts, but for some reason this is rare. "

So maybe people who can travel time, such as Captain Atom ( ) or Extant, have an inherent advantage? The use of these rifts is probably rare because it isn't inhabited by time travelers. Extant however is a multiversal threat, an experienced time traveler. Seems like that could come into play, or not, doesn't matter much.

There is absolutely nothing to support the thought that Sentinel can withstand an entropy blast, but there is evidence to support Extant absorbing or shrugging off Sentinel's attacks and possibly absorbing him completely. Chronal energy > Starheart energy/

 

I'll try and get some stuff up on SBP today.

 

Genis has time travel... teleportation, prep...

 

I can't believe I even have to argue this one. Extant > Waverider > Dr. Fate > Sentinel. Yet Extant defeated them all, at the same time while they had the prep and surprise, plus they had additional (though all but useless) help at the time.

It could very easily be argued that Extant's peak is after he absorbed Waverider, that was not temporary either. I haven't done that at all however, but most of Zero Hour was Extant with Waverider's absorbed powers.

 

I'm with you... Extant ftw.

 

OK, so remember when I explained the origin of Extant? How Hank became the Extant because his future self (the Monarch) came back in time and killed Dove, then Hank killed Monarch and became more powerful than the Monarch ever hoped to be? Remember that? OK, so this is future Hank as the Monarch, who was less powerful than the Extant by far.

Notice in this fight that Monarch (again, less powerful than Extant) is fighting and defeating Superman, Lightray, Kilowog, Waverider, Martian Manhunter, Jade, Aquaman, Flash, BATMAN, Hal Jordan and Captain Atom? Notice that. Then look back to the earlier scans, again Monarch was less powerful than Extant. Hank killing the Monarch was the birth of Extant, he only got more powerful from there.

So can we put to rest the thought that Extant can't fight, or has no durability? I just showed a weaker version of Hank/Extant, the version that Hank/Extant killed.

 

No you did it wrong. Dammit where are the scans that cause me to scroll to read the thread even though I am using my 47" television to view this thread?

My team is clearly outmatched by any and everything regardless of the number drawn.

 

Sorry, I will make sure to change that in the future so you have something borderline legitimate to complain about. Then again maybe it is just you, I can still read them fine on both my iPhone and regular desktop screen without side scrolling.

How the hell do you get those images to shrink anyway? No matter how I put them in here they are huge.

 

That would be a nice option. I will just try and throw links up from now on if it is messing everyone up.

 

I personally like copying to the tread. Saves me from having to click links. But that's just me.

 

I like it as well, it would just be nice to have the option of reducing image size a bit.

 

Links are better since I'm mobile this month. Easier on the 3G.

 

Hey look you're right it was just me complaining. Uggh kids these days. Go watch your Jersey Shore and Teen Mom.

 

Chim, you have been complain since the start about pretty much everything in general. Nobody else said anything until just now about the images.

Anyway, as I said I have no problem giving links. It is easy enough to do, all anyone had to do was simply ask.

 

Jersey Shore is a great show Chim. There's no denying.

 

oh god ... that Wonder Witten is going to scar my brain and give me nightmares.

 

Okay. I don't have time to find and list every unimaginably stupid feet SBP has. But, let's just face it - even overpowered bricks call him an overpowered brick. And his feats go beyond just brick. But, let's start there, shall we?

First, he's one of the few guys who could troll Galactus at the Dinner table. Guy's been known to move entire planets and rumor has it, sometimes entire sets of planets.
He's also strong enough to punch through dimensions.
And - combat? Sure. If you consider showing up and throwing down and one-shotting a Justice League Variant impressive. This guy's got it.
Me? I'm more impressed with performance against this impressive trump.

Then, when you throw in the ability to alter reality, and his time manipulation ...

Well, you realize that Superboy Prime isn't just a brick. But, if he was a Brick, he'd be the best damn brick out there.

No disrespect to the Count. Trimaj, you did a great job with his feats and I'm damn impressed with what you posted.

But Superboy Prime shouldn't be in this draft. But, he is, and he's a beast.
