her and Willow are always connected now apparently,and it more Buffy borrows power from Willow.

Well if you want to go down that road, Zarathos is linked to the Fallen in that manner, and when Blaze is in charge, he is linked mystically to some of the Sons Of Midnight.:p

Kess gives me a headache. I always thought Zarathos got trapped in his bond with Blaze by Mephisto.

He was bonded by Mephisto, but it was as a punishment for Blaze not Zarathos. Mephisto was stopped from getting Blaze's soul, so he bonded him with Zarathos. Then when Zarathos regained his full memories, he tormented Blaze as they were sharing the one body and mind.


Zarathos had a few issues with Mephisto, as rival demons do , but they have been allies as often as they have been enemies. The main enemy for a standalone Zarathos was Centurious.

And the only time that Zarathos went after somebody when Blaze was out cold was when he wentr after Centurious, but he only did that once.


It was the Ketch/Kale Ghost Rider that took the fight the Hell in a big way in comparison.

A genuine Heavyweight fight.

Over 24 hours and no votes.


Might as well throw mine in.


The lights are on full and there is equal strong light for 360 degrees around Shade, meaning he has no shadow, and is nore vunerable than normal.


Swampy takes advantage of this and comes in hard, hitting Shade with every bit of force he can muster, staggering Shade and dazing him a little.


Swampy then literally envelopes Shade with his very being. Mud, stone, plants etc all ooze over Shade, covering him completely from head to toe. The goo oozing into his ears, nostrils, mouth, down his throat etc in an attempt to suffocate him.


But covering Shade also means he is in darkness and has shadows to work with again. He pushes a shadow force outwards with massive force that literally tears Swamp thing apart and sends the pieces flying in every direction.

As soon as Shade pulls this move, he is covered in bright light again, and back to being vunerable. But what was covering him is now in thosands of pieces and scattered all over the place. He looks up and prepares to summon demons from the shadow dimension to come and take out the lights, but just as he does he feels a piercing pain from within.

Suddenly he remembers the goo that went into his nose, mouth etc, he opens his mouth to yell, but his body tears apart from the inside before he can utter a word.

Swampy had moved his conciousness to the goo that went inside Shade and simply expanded in size from within.

Swampy is then careful to keep seperate all the still living parts of the Shade and keep them apart, and makes sure that the brain is damaged to prevent the unkillable Shade from mentally accessing his powers.


Swamp Thing for the underdog win against a more powerful foe.

It is a tough one to call. Were it not for the location you used for this fight, I would have had the Shade win easily as he would have been able to exploit one of Swampy's main weaknesses.

You are referencing of course that he does badly in artifical environments. yeah, that's why I tried to make it a balanced location for both.

No what I meant was that by putting Shade in a location where he could not access shadows, you prevented him from placing Swampy in total darkness whilst using his ability to meddle with time to make it an extended spell for Swampy whilst only taking seconds in the real world.

Swampy minus light, especially sunlight, puts Swampy in serious trouble.


Of course there is something else that can really damage and potentially stop Swampy, but the Shade does not have that particular power or access to it.:D

Should have asked the same question about Angel really. Is it pre or post Twilight Angel?

Have to side with a thinking Jack Russell then.

He has been a vampire killer most of his life and has gone head to head with many of the most powerful vampires in the Marvel Universe, including the Marvel version of Dracula which was a far more powerful version than the Buffy take on Dracula. He has also been able to give Hulk a good fight, and kill a wendigo.

He showed his worth when he fought alongside Ghost Rider and co as a member of the Midnight Sons, and of late as an ally of FrankenCastle.


Sorry Angel fans, your boy would have beaten the feral Jack Russell as quickly as MoonKnight did, but against the vampire killing rational JR, old Angel is getting sliced and diced.


Werewolf By Night for a big and bloody win.
