"I'll do anything for Love, but I won't do that"

I don't blame Ray honestly. I don't care what's on the line, I'm not going up anybody's ass just to win a fight. 

Fuck that. 

So, Who Would Win?: JLA VS. The Black Order

This particular match up came to me out of the blow while looking at some pics of assembled Marvel Legends Black Order figures.

So that got me thinking, what if the JLA were to fight the Black Order?

Now ideally in a team battle like this I'd make sure the roster number was even steven so it'd be fair. But as is the case with the Black Order as it stands, it'd be 6 VS 7, so for the purpose of this fight, I'm adding in another member who's associated with the Black Order, even if she wasn't an official
 member member, but has worked with them enough to warrant inclusion. So now it's 7-on-7 and fair as fuck.

Let's take a quick look at the respective roster of combatants and their powers/skills shall we?

-JLA:

1). Superman

Abilities	Superhuman strength, speed, durability, and longevity Invulnerability Superhuman vision Heat vision Electromagnetic spectrum vision Microscopic vision X-ray vision Telescopic vision Infrared vision Superhuman breath Freeze breath Wind breath Flight

2). Batman

-The Black Order:

1). Thanos

2). Corvus Glaive

Abilities	Super strength, speed, endurance, and senses Immortality Wields a powerful glaive he can call to his hand

3). Proxima Midnight

Abilities	Invulnerability Superhuman strength, speed, and endurance Wields a powerful spear

4). Supergiant 

Abilities	Telepathy Mental Manipulation

5). Ebony Maw

Abilities	Super-Strength, unbreakable skin

7). Black Swan 

Abilities	Superhuman strength Flight Energy beam projection through her eyes Telepathy Knowledge of the incursions and the multiverse Ability to speak in multiple languages and generate holographic visuals from her hands

Something tells me the Black Order, just looking based off the team's respective stats, are than capable of holding their own with the JLA's big seven.

Of course a fight just between the JLA and Thanos would be more than enough of thrilling battle in and of itself, but throw in those other six, and goddamn if the JLA don't have their work cut out for them.

So, 


The JLA

VS.


The Black Order

 

Who wins and why?

W.W.A.D?

So....has everyone already seen all those Antman memes lately? You know, the ones where it's all about Ant-Man crawling up Thanos' ass in Endgame in order to defeat him?

If you haven't here's just a small sample of they're like:

Yeah, so apparently that's a thing now. Someone came up with the bright idea that Antman's just going to crawl up Thanos' ass, expand, thus killing him and saving the day.

Apparently it all started off as a simple idea:

and off to the races the meme makers went.

Of course the Russo Brothers said fuck no to that:

Of course that didn't stop the internet, because of course and it doesn't and someone did this:

 Of course I gotta' throw my two cents in, because meanwhile in another universe we find.....

I don't blame him. I really, really don't. 

Super Powers!? What Super Powers!?

TGIT!!!!!!

Seriously, you don't have super powers, unless of course you mean you've lost your massive fortune and are broke as fuck.
And here I thought he had a back up plan for EVERYTHING....

And Ollie, that mean you can't hit the broad side of a barn now?

And Red Tornado's an android.....merged with a wind elemental and all, but still. He got separated from said elemental all of a sudden? Then wouldn't he be, you know, dead for reals then?

Silly Batman....

The sad look on Aquaman's face is priceless. It's like he's resigned himself to be the team's comedy relief (more so than usual) by making sad fish faces and blowing bubbles while wearing a giant fish bowl.

I can't even imagine how happy he was when Geoff Johns decided to rehabilitate his public image decades later.

So, Who Would Win?: JLA VS. Galactus

What's Up People?

Just found out that legenadry writer/director Wes Craven died recently, succumbing to brain cancer.
How very, very sad.

He's most famous for creating the Nightmare On Elm Street movie franchise, giving the world one of its best movie villains, Freddy Kruegar. Of coure he's directed more movies than just that, but those are usually the ones he's most associated with. He was only 76.

Speaking of villains who are really more forces of nature than anything else, check out who's co-headlining this week's edition of So, Who Would Win?: Galactus.

Yes Galactus, big, giant purple and blue alien with the crazy big hat with antlers who eats planets.

Today I'm piting him against the Justice League to see who ultimately be the last man standing in battle of this magnitude.



The idea came to me after seeing a commisioned sketch John Byrne did of Galactus fighting the JLA.

It really got me thinking just how a fight like that would go down and why.
Now for me, it starts off simple enough; Galactus finds the DC Universe and goes onto attempt to feed on their version of Earth.

How Galactus got into the DCU would be explored. For my scenario, he's lured and led there by Darkseid in attempt to finally get rid of Earth's superheroes once and for all.

He even probably foolishly thinks that  the JLA can and will at least weaken and wear down Galactus enough so that he can swoop/boom tube in take out Galactus himself.

Of course you can use anyone else like Lex Luthor or even Mr. Mxyzptlk to achieve the same effect, but I picked darkseid since he's a fellow Kirby creation and it just makes more sense that he'd be the one to come across a force of nature like Galactus, and attempt to use him to further his own nightmarish goals.


I would also treat this fight like its the DC/JLA version of the classic Galactus Trilogy from FF#'s48-50, meaning that all of the classic elements from that story will likewise be used in this one, even the presence of the Ultimate Nullifier.

Would the Watcher appear then to help the JLA against Galactus? Would there be a suitable replacement for him if he didn't show up?

If we were to follow closely how the FF met and dealt with Galactus, then one possible scenario goes like this:

The computers onboard the JLA's satelite base go off screaming with an alert that some powerful and weird object to hurtling super fast towards Earth. Outside of the Flash, the more logical person to use to run into the Silver Surfer would of course be Hal. Hal could either be there to see the alert, or is already previously alerted of the Surfer and Galactus' presence via his ring/Guardians of Oa.


































Hal's amazed at the Surfer's speed, yet still confronts him. Surfer offers his warning that his master Galactus, is coming to their planet to feed. Hal and Surfer fight, Surfer wins.....for now.


The JL shows up to confront the surfer. He tells them that Galactus is coming to eat their world.
They take him down, but then Galactus shows up very hungry and very pissed off to see his herald beaten by these mere "ants."

And the shit is on from there.




Now of course the Watcher, or maybe even the Surfer himself, would have to mention the Ultimate Nullifier as a mention of stopping Galactus. Just has to be in there.

In place of Alicia Masters, who persuaded the Silver Surfer to turn against his master, I'd use Wonder Woman in this role. She's a beautiful and intelligent warrior who's also an ambassador. I imagine these many factors combine to help her convince Surfer to help save mankind. Maybe even have Superman, in all his big speech, inspirational glory, likewise inspire the Surfer to see the promise in humanity like he does.

Either way, hell of a battle with the eventuall Surfer face turn.

But who would win?

For the JLA's roster, I'd use the classic super seven formula of  Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter. At least intially.


Seeing that they'll need more bodies to throw at Galactus, more leaguers would show up to fight, like the Atom, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Firestorm, Hawkman and Hawkwoman.

Then seeing that that's not enough, then every superhero on earth is drafted into the fight. Maybe a good number of supervillains too. Either way, it'll be a hell of a fight.

So,


The JLA
