PEAT: Well, whatever knows fear BURNS at the Man-Thing's touch, but what would the Swamp Thing need to fear? He's a powerful elemental. Swampy, baby! Take away Man-Things burning action, and he's two-bit muscle. Swamp thing can make a marajuana leaf into a whole tree in seconds, dry it out, and grow fruit on his chest for when you get the munchies.
CRAIG: Yeah. I don't see Swampy actually _pounding_ on Man-Thing, but he definitely would be able to handle him. Swamy just isn't the instinctively violent type. . . .
PEAT: Alfred is older, but Jarvis is missing an eye and still limps from when Mr. Hyde beat the crap out of him. Also, Alfred is trained in combat medicine, so he was probably a soldier at one point. Alfie would kick Jarvis' ass.
CRAIG: Actually, here I was thinking more along the lines of who could cook better. Let's face it, if the two met they'd probably sit and trade recipies and gripe about what a pain it is to wash a cape. . .
PEAT: Lois is more of a badass, but MJ is much more... fit. Of course, even after MJ pulls ous a few locks of Lois' hair and gets her in a sleeper hold, all Lois needs to do is scream and her Husband, no matter what continent he's on, will hear and come running. I Doubt Spidey could do much to stop him, either.
CRAIG: Yeah. I'd be rooting for MJ, but Lois would take her. . . .
PEAT: Jay and Bob wouldn't even need a reason. They'd beat up Jimmy just for being a geek, and then have a tag-team whomp-ass on Bibbo.
CRAIG: SNOOTICHE BOOTHICES!!!!
PEAT: Who has more credibility as a photojournalist?
CRAIG: Credbility? Well, considering Petey essentially stages his own "news", I guess Olsen would take that one. But when you consider how amazing it is that Parker just places the camera in ONE spot and STILL manages to get great pics, I'd say he's got da skills, yo.
CRAIG: Hmmm. Not too familiar with Ghost, but I'd give the edge to her. Shadowcat never impressed me.
PEAT: I don't know a damn thing about Ghost, either. Just sounded good. My money would have been on Shadowcat, though.
CRAIG: well, truth is I'm not up on Ghost, either. Maybe Kitty would get the edge after all.
CRAIG: Well, Micheal would probably take Cass in a fist fight, but if were talking drinking, Cassidy _is_ Irish. . . .
CRAIG: Oh PUL-LEEZE! Lord chaos would rant and rave and posture and then Del would kinda look at him and go "You're colors are running..." and if she didn't turn him into a chocolate chip cookie he'd probably jus have a mental breakdown trying to figure her out. . . .
CRAIG: Entrantress. Selene's got the White Queen's fashion sense, but Amora _is_ a goddess...
>
PEAT: Okay, let me school ya: SELENE IS A GODDESS TOO! And I ain't just talkin'
'bout her smokin' bod, either. The citizens of
Nova Roma (and some random wackos around the world) worship her as an ancient
vampiric goddess of... uh, the moon, I think.
My money is on Selene. She's more ruthless. The Enchantress is to flighty.
DOesn't take things very seriously at all. Selene
would suck the goly life out of her and not have to feed for like a hundred
years.
CRAIG: Yeah, but Amora's a blonde. :)
Besides, I remember the bit about Nova Roma. They were two-bit twits.
Amora's Norse, Peat. The REAL Deity Deal. I still say Amora.
PEAT: The people of NR were twits, I grant you, but the Norse gods weren't TRUE
immortals like the Greek & Roman deities. They
needed the apples of Idunn to preserve their youth, like Selene needed
life-forces. Selene's as real as any Norse deity, and
she's tougher. Accept it. You're just plain wrong.
By the way, I prefer brunettes, thank you. The White Queen and Black Cat are
exceptions. Personally, I think the hottest, and most
underrated, member of the Hellfire Club was Tessa...
CRAIG: Oh, per Peat's sake: Look, a God is a God, whether they're immortal or
not. The Norse people worshipped them. That makes them Gods. I don't
remember anybody worshipping the NR's, so let's not split hairs that way.
By the way: just for the record, I've got no problem's with brunettes. But I still say Amora. CHECK PLEASE!!
PEAT: don't know SHITE about Hawk and Dove. I've never even heard of them. Any fight Cloak and Dagger couldn't win, they could teleport away from, though.
CRAIG: Hawk and Dove were a team from the late 60s/early 70s I think. Dove bought
it in crises then in a late 80s revival (which, for better or worse, made
Rob Liefield a star) Hawk got a new, female Dove. then she died and Hawk
became Armageddon and that was all she wrote. Thankfully.
I agree about your thoughts though. Hawk was strong (I forget Dove's
power) but it wouldn't do him Jack inside Cloak.
PEAT: Cloak was VERY powerful. Besides, I can't support anyone or anything associated with Rob Liefeld...
PEAT: My money's on the Avenging Daughter. That could be just because she has wings on her feet, though. If she can manage to flap thos suckers hard enough to fly, she's probably strong enough to punch out a Rhino.
CRAIG: Ooooh . . . hmmm. Again, not too familiar with the Creeper so my instincts say Nightcrawler (besides, I always liked him) although the Creeper is friggin' nuts, so his own viciousness and ferocity might givre him an edge.
