So, Who Would Win?: Youngblood VS. The Avengers

TGIT!!!!!

That's right folks, I'm pitting Rob Liefields' signature team against the iconic franchise team from Marvel Comics, the Avengers.




As is the case with superhero teams, there's bound to be plenty of roster changes over the years, depending on how long that teams' been around. And both teams, regardless of the length of time they've been around, have had plenty of membership rotations over the years. To simplify things for today, I'll just be focusing on the original incarnations of both teams.

Here's Young blood's initial line-up:

-Shaft (team leader)
He's an FBI agent turned archer.

-Badrock
He's the muscle of the group.

-Diehard
He's what Iron Man would be if he was around during WWII and was more of a cyborg.

-Kombat
He's the resident team alien warrior.
No powers, but very tough.

-Chapel
He's the resident team mercenary/government guy. Kind of like if the Punisher was working for the government, but black with a skull painted on his face. He also helped create Spawn.

-Vogue
She's basically the Image Comics' version of the Black Widow.

They're going up against the classic team of Avengers circa Avengers#4.

In case you don't already know, the line-up is as follows:

-Captain America (team leader)

-Iron Man

-Thor

-Giant Man

-The Wasp

As you can see, this'll be an interesting right since Youngblood outnumbers the Avengers 6-5, but the Avengers seem to have a slight advantage in the firepower department.

So, 

Youngblood



VS.


The Avengers












Who Wins and Why?
Let me know who you thinks the last team standing in the comments' section.

Have a good weekend folks....

Dream Waves: The Defenders

Happy Hump Day!!!!







What's up folks, welcome to another edition of Dream Waves, where I offer you the reader and hopefully Hasbro, a suggestion of a possible roster of figures for a particular themed wave.

This week, it's all about that beloved oddball team of heroes, The Defenders.

Defenders Wave 1:

1). Nighthawk


They made a Nighthawk figure for the smaller  Marvel Universe line, but not a 6 inch version for the Marvel Legends line. We NEED a Nighthawk figure. Do It Hasbro!!!!

2). Classic Valkyrie


The current modern version that was made in the Hulkbuster wave was pretty good, and they have made a classic version before as well, but not as good as they could've. Time to rectify that Hasbro.

3). Masked Dr. Strange


Yeah I know, we've already a shit ton of Dr. Strange figures being made, but not this one.

4). Damien Hellstorm


It really is waaaaay past time we got a Damien Hellstorm figure, so why not use this wave as a proper excuse. We'll go for the classic version first, then go for the modern version later.

5). Classic Hulk

We've had tons of Hulk figures in the past, but not too many that really captured the likeness of a Sal Buscema Hulk or a Gil Kane Hulk. Do it Hasbro!!!!!

6). Classic Green Trunks Namor


I didn't like the one we got in the FF  wave, so it's time for a true classic Namor figure to be made that a decent body buck.

7). Female Red Guardian/Elf With A Gun

Why not right? We got a the male version, so it'd make sense to make a female version since the female version used to be an actual member.

Oh, and she'll come with the infamous Elf with a Gun too!!!!!

BAF: Gargoyle


























I think a character like the Gargoyle is PERFECT for a build-a-figure, so why not this one?

"Closing time. You don't have to go home but you can't stay here."

Well..... I kinda always knew this day would come, and it sure has. It's been a hell of a ride, but it's time to for it end. Ti...
