So, Who Would Win?:The Sinister Six (original) VS. The Flash (Barry Allen)

TGIT!!!!

And a Happy 1st of the month to ya' guys as well.

For this week's edition of So, Who Would Win?, I decided I'd bit Barry Allen against The Sinister Six just as next week, I'm pitting Spider-Man against the Rogues. It's a fun little challenge I think, but nothing these heroes aren't used to, as both teams are basically replacing the other in their respective scenarios.

I will say right off the bat, for me, just off first impressions, it seems like Barry might have an easier time with the 'Six, than Spidey will with the Rogues. Why? Because to me it just seems that Flash, being more the powerful of the two, would take out the Sinister Six in the first battle, whereas The Rogues might just wind up wining the first encounter with Spider-Man, then Spidey regroups and takes them out in the second go-round, But that's just me.

Now here's the original Sinister Six line-up as they first appeared in 1964:


-Doctor Octopus
-Electro
-Kraven The Hunter
-The Sandman
-Mysterio
-The Vulture

You know their powers and
 Barry's...


So......

The Flash

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one.

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....

So, Who Would Win?: Ghost Rider(Johnny Blaze) VS. The Flash( Barry Allen)

TGIT!!!!!


That's right folks, it's the ultimate speed battle between the science and the mystic, as I pit Ghost Rider against The Flash in an unholy union of violence!

 

I'm sure by now you know both of the combatants powers, so there's no need to go over them , but I will present some points of interest from both.

Ghost Rider:

-Powers are mystical in nature, thus aren't exactly restricted by convention things such as physics.

-While good ol' GR doesn't run with legs, his otherworldly motorcycle does, running off hellfire. Any separation from his bike is temporary; he'll either just make another one, or it follow him back just like Thor's hammer does.

-He has a mystical healing factor.

-Unlike the Flash, GR isn't restricted by regular human endurance, meaning he'll be the energizer bunny; he'll just keep going and going, and going....



The Flash:
- Can access the Speed Force, which may run interference for him when facing Ghost Rider.

-His time-traveling abilities shouldn't be overlooked in this one.

-Isn't hampered with having to use a vehicle to race with.

There's more of course, like Barry be able to vibrate and move through objects by vibrating through them. Something that'll definitely help in this fight.

So,

Ghost Rider












VS.


The Flash










Who Wins and Why?
Let me know in the comments' section below...

BTW, remember this guy?




He was one of my favorite Amalgam Comics' characters created, and loved that one-shot. Never would've though of that particular pairing, but it worked.

Alright, that's me for this week.
Have a good weekend people,.....

So, Who Would Win?: The Golden Age Manhunter VS. Kraven the Hunter

Happy Hump Day!!!!





This edition of So, Who Would Win? came to me Monday evening when I glanced at my shelf of figures, and spied the DC Direct Golden Age Manhunter figure. The one with his 70's look?

Yeah, him.

He used to be a rich, big-time game hunter named Paul Kirk who spent his days traveling all over the world hunting animals, 'till he got bored one day ans decided to hunt humans instead, specifically criminals.

He didn't have any super-powers or abilities other than just being a damn good hunter and fit for his height and weight.



Later during the 70's when legendary creators Archie Goodwin and Walt Simonson, they upgraded Paul's fighting skills by having him to be taught martial arts as well as with other various weapons.

Then there's Kraven. We already know the deal with him, big game hunter who's herbally enhanced with a healing factor or and super-human speed, strength and agility.

In the the battle of the big-game hunters, who's the ultimate predator, and who's the ultimately the prey?


So.....

The Golden Age Manhunter Paul Kirk





VS.

Kraven the Hunter







Who Wins and Why?
