    Depends on fixtures, but yeah its those four that will contest it. Shame. I wanted another Hulk/Supes off.

    I like them both this time.

    Punisher with a symbiote suit?
    Where?

    That'd kill just about anything.

    Is World War Hulk out in a graphic novel format? Seems to be a fair few crossovers into various comics, but I'm long past the days of rooting around looking for 60 or so comics to get the whole arc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Ha im the same. Yeah think i saw it in Forbidden Planet last weekend


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    I think if ya live in Dublin that Forbidden Planet have it, I've seen it a few times in there on my travels.

    Must pop in for a purchase, all these threads have shown how out of touch I am with the Marvel Universe.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    I recommend Civil War, then WWH, then Secret Invasion. Kick ass.

    Yeah it was in War Journal. He had some washed up supervillian working tech for him for a while. Suit fell apart at the end of the issue

    Punishers big weakness in this tourney would have been that he wont touch a superhero. He will only hurt baddies.

    Are we meant to be taking in all the character traits of the fighters or just assuming that X has to kill Y and who would win? I may have to consider some of my past choices if that's the case... likes of Superman, nearly never goes all-out and it's going to have a major bearing when it gets down to villains vs heroes etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Supes never goes all out (cept against doomsday, darkseid and zod) and yet still wins. Everytime.

    He does enough to put whoever it is DOWN

    Didn't stop him defeating Spider-man, Daredevil and oh yeah, the Avengers.

    Ah yes, but he doesn't tend to finish anybody, fights it all the way... but I was just using him as an example really.

    Ooh, Doomsday, that'd be pretty damn interesting if he was in the villain mix... if we're talking endurance he's pretty much going to have nearly anyone's number.

    We had Doomsday once...

    The Joker thrased him :(

    Just for your information... I actually have this comic. It's a what if from the 90's.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Everyone over to dooms to read the comic!!

    I have that issue as well. During World War Hulk he was working with a washed up supervillian who helped him modify stolen S.H.IE.L.D. tech. One of those was a synthetic symbiote battlesuit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,035 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    The symbiotes are highly overrated, especially here.

    Seriously, they're susceptible to fire and loud noise for Hoffs sake!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    Yeah but they are so visually cool and marketable. ;):p


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 47,823 Mod ✭✭✭✭cyberwolf77


    Also, the symbiotes adapt to specific frequencies relatively quickly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    Into the QFs thus far

    • Green Lantern
    • Thor
    • Ultron
    • Optimus Prime
    • Venom

    Christ I dunno.

    Guess in this one depends on how much you buy into spiritual leader dude prime.

    I definitely don't see Prime falling for his trickery. I do see him being able to damage prime.


    hmmm.
