5. Azrael vs The Red Hood
Both are former protégés of Batman's, and both disregard the rules. Azrael took over as Batman while Bruce Wayne was still in recovery after his first encounter with Bane. The Red Hood, or Jason Todd as he is also known, was the second Robin who is brash, arrogant and jumps into any situation without prior thought. He originally met his demise at the hands of the Joker, as I've discussed before, but was brought back 15 years later as the villain known as Red Hood. This one is interesting because of the shared history. Both are former allies that Batman thought he could trust, but both ended up going off the rails. Both are very well equipped with an arsenal of weapons and I would wager that both are pretty darn smart...so who would win?
Winner: Azrael- While Jason was smart and most certainly ruthless, he's no match for Azrael. He has less formal training, and why he is a prolific fighter, Azrael is decked out with a suit of armor that can pierce almost any defense. He defeated BANE single handedly if that is any indication. Also, both may be brash and hot headed, but Jason reaches that point faster than Azrael. Jason's weapon arsenal might be vast, but its no match for the likes of Azraels flame thrower, projectile batarangs, and even a searchlight capable of blinding his opponent. It may be close, but ol' Azbat has the drop on Jason.
4. Piccolo vs. The Martian Manhunter
The ultimate green supporting character throwdown!! To make it short, Piccolo used to be Goku's rival in the original Dragon Ball anime before becoming one of his strongest allies in Z. Martian Manhunter on the other hand, has a very similar story. Originally an outsider from Mars, he is found by the Justice League and shown to have incredible powers. He eventually becomes a member and one of the strongest assets. So who wins?
Winner: Piccolo- I can feel the hateful messages coming from this one already. Sure, Martian Manhunter's moves are impressive and more than capable of wiping out any opponent if given the chance. Grant Morrisons JLA run even hinted that he might be more powerful than Superman at some point, as all of his powers have yet to be revealed. However, let's take into account the fact that Piccolo also has some tricks up his sleeve. First off it should be pretty evident that MM is stronger physically than Piccolo, granted Piccolo is probably faster. Both can stretch their limbs to unbelievable lengths, so it could be possible that this fight is going to have some distance to it. One of Martian Manhunter's biggest assets is the fact that he can completely tamper with someone's mind. However, keep in mind that Piccolo is not one, but THREE people combined. He is himself, Nail, AND Kami. Piccolo's training is also insane. He, along with the other Z fighters, have possibly mastered most known martial arts. That being said, given his experience and his mental fortitude, Piccolo ultimately takes this fight, leaving the Manhunter in Mars' red dust.
3. Green Lantern (Kyle Rayner) vs. The Silver Surfer
Ohh. Tough one, honestly. I may not even come to a verdict on this one. One one hand, Kyle Rayner is the most powerful of the Lantern Corps, but....Silver Surfer....I'll come back to this one. I'm running out of time to do this thing.
2. Lobo vs. Wolverine
Again, I can hear the fanboy rage. Lobo is an interdimensional bounty hunter who has an affinity for space dolphins and Wolverine is a nigh indestructible X-Man with metal claws and a bad attitude. Both are known to be super strong, very gritty, and have a penchant for foul language. This fight won't finish easy, not even close.
Winner: Lobo- scream at me all you want, Lobo has this match hands down. Let me put it to ya this way, "bub": Wolverine may be nearly unkillable and yadda yadda yadda, but so is Lobo. Like any good anti-hero, the guy can take explosions, gun blasts, impalements, any of that. (Mostly in part because he was originally intended as a parody OF Wolverine). Lobo single-handedly destroyed planets, all before he ever came to Earth. And when he did? He easily held his own against Superman. Sorry, I don't care how strong your bones are, if the man youre facing is comperable in strength to Superman, you're toast. Sorry Wolvie.
1. He-Man vs. Superman
Ah yes, the match-up of all match-ups. Two of fictions most superpowered beings, duking it out, monumental blow after monumental blow. Superman, came to Earth, found by the Kents became a superhero, ungodly strong. Everyone knows that. He-Man, alter-ego of Prince Adam (of the House of Randor, mind you) protector of Eternia, ungodly strong. Pretty similar stories. The unintelligent answer would be Superman (not to say he WONT win, but to be fair he has been associated with being a completely OP and unfair character) but, what do I think??
Winner: He-Man- Oh yes, Prince Adam for the win. Why? Let's look at the facts. Firstly, watch the episode of Death Battle "He-Man vs. Lion-O". There you can get a good estimation of his strength (well into the million-fold). "But Superman can move planets!" I hear you whine. Keep in mind He-Man is entirely composed of magic, at his very core. Magic just so happens to be a weakness of Superman's. "Supermans faster than him!" I hear you whine. I have to agree AND disagree. DC has proven that Superman is faster once he has MOMENTUM. Sure, his regular movemens can be faster than a normal humans, but He-Man is no ordinary human. Superman has to build speed to become the lightyear traveling dingus he is. Meaning, his regular movements aren't nearly as fast. Is He-Man faster in a split-second? Well, if Batman is faster than Superman in a split second (as proven be The Dark Knight Returns) then why not He-Man? So we've already shown He-Man has the edge in speed and is at least on a level playing field in terms of power, so where does that leave us? With more proof. He-Man HAS officialy fought Supes before, in 1984. Look at that year. It's pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths (an event that toned Superman's powers down considerably). He's fighting Pre-Crisis Superman, or silver age Superman, who could blow away galaxies with a breath. Yeah. And he held his own, no problem. Sorry Supes, if Prince Adam can fend off Mega Ultra Super Omega Overpowered Superman, he should have no problem with the modern day one.
