    Superman wins hands down.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    Loving this thread, gutted that the Rocketeer got such a tough draw earlier, one of my favourites.

    This bout is easy enough, Superman, no contest.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Rogue does not prove to be Superman's Kryptonite as the Man of Steel flies through to Round 2. Next up it's an all-Marvel clash.

    I'm not all that familiar with Black Panther, but I do love Fantastic Four, so my vote is with The Human Torch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    The Human Torch for me

    Torch for me too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Black Panther's hopes burst into flames as The Human Torch blazes a trail into Round 2. Next up is another all-Marvel rumble.

    Great thread, ghost rider for me.

    My only experience of both is their films/tv series so on that basis I'll go with Jessica Jones


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    Johnny Blaze (Ghost Rider) wins this one easy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Jessica Jones


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    One of the closest battles yet sees Ghost Rider drive on into Round 2. Next up it's two characters that have had very bad experiences with atomic power.


    The Hulk

    It's Bruce Banner's very angry alter ego The Hulk versus the godlike member of The Watchmen Doctor Manhattan.

    Hulk Smash!

    My vote is indeed for The Hulk.


  • Registered Users Posts: 60,300 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    HULK SMASH!


  • Registered Users Posts: 902 ✭✭✭Cows Go µ


    Has to be Hulk


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,535 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    An incredible (ahem) performance from The Hulk sees him smash his way into Round 2. It's another DC vs Marvel clash next:


    Black Canary

    Spider-Man

    250px-Spiderman50.jpg


    It's one of DC's earliest heroines and the alter ego of Dinah Drake Black Canary versus a hero that needs no introduction, New York's web-slinger and alter ego of Peter Parker Spider-Man.

    No great surprise as the Canary's tweets get lost in the web (sorry) as Spidey swings into Round 2. Next up it's an all-Marvel battle.


    Ant-Man

    Black Cat

    It's the miniature hero who enjoyed a successful big screen appearance last year, Ant-Man, versus the alter ego of Felicia Hardy, the feisty Black Cat.

    Ant-Man proves to Black Cat that size doesn't matter as he leaps into Round 2. Next up we have two members of the X-Men facing off.

    Iceman

    It's two of the original members of the X-Men fighting for your vote as the man with the freezing ability, Iceman, takes on the hero with brains as well as brawn, Beast.

    Oh how cruel, making us choose between two X-Men in Round 1.

    As much as I like Iceman, Beast is the obvious choice here - what other Superhero could Frasier portray in a movie? Beast for the Win!
