TGIF!!!!
Welcome to another edition of ....
....Where I pit comic characters and/or teams of comic characters against each other in a battle to see who'd be the last man/woman/team last standing.
This week, it's a battle of magic users, as I have the
Son of Satan, Daimon Hellstrom go one-on-one against the mistress of magic,
Zatanna.
I figure as far as magic and powers-wise goes, they should be more of an even match than if I'd had Dr. Strange fight either of them. Because trust me, it just wouldn't be.
But hey, let's look at the stats and compare them shall we?
-Daimon Hellstrom:
| Abilities | Dark magic user Fire projection Ability to heal others Peak human physical capabilities |
Plus he's literally the son of satan, so yeah you could say he;'s got friends in loooooow places if he needs an edge.
-Zatanna:
The limits of her powers have never been clearly established. She is often depicted working alongside the most powerful magic-users on Earth, including
Circe,
Madame Xanadu,
John Constantine,
Enchantress, and
Doctor Fate, while on another occasion Jason Blood sacrificed himself to free Zatanna from a trap as he felt that she was better qualified to face the current threat than he was. She has used her powers to command elemental forces, heal, transmute and transmogrify objects, manipulate minds, and attack her opponents with
energy blasts. She has resurrected the city of
Metropolis from ruin,
[61] merged
Aquaman's spirit with the entire ocean in the finale of the "Obsidian Age" story arc (albeit after the sorcerer
Gamemnae had already merged Aquaman with a pool of water),
[62] and manipulated time and space. During a portion of her initial tenure with the Justice League, her powers were more limited, consisting in the manipulation of
fire, air, water, and earth.Furthermore, her powers seems tied to her self-confidence, as the long series of blunders described in
Seven Soldiers left her both emotionally and psychologically shattered, powerless, until she was able to restore her lost confidence.
Zatanna is a skilled illusionist, showgirl and stage magician even without resorting to her innate magical powers. In fact she considers part of her "training" exercising
sleight of hand tricks, and she claims to have invented a variation of the
three-card monte called the "Zatara shuffle", in which she is so fast and precise that, even without resorting to cheating, only skilled gamblers like Selina Kyle are able to follow the movements of her hands.
Zatanna is also a skilled hand-to-hand combatant, being trained by her father during her childhood.
Again, these two would more than be a match for each other, with neither gaining a distinct advantage unless either Daimon was in Hell, or Zatanna was in her dimension or got a power boost from a fellow magic user.
So,
Daimon Hellstrom
VS.
Zatanna

Who wins and why?
