    Batman.Flawless Victory.


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


    No great shock there as Hawkman fails to get off the ground whilst Batman soars through to Round 2. Next up is a really fascinating duel.


    Cyclops

    Judge Dredd

    It's two heroes with a strong sense of right and wrong as one of the most iconic X-Men Cylops squares off against the one-man judge and jury of the future Judge Dredd.

    Toughest face-off so far. Very close for me because they're both great, but gonna stick with the X-Men once again and give my vote to Cyclops.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,330 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    Cyclops was one of my favourites from the animated series so him to blast Dredd away before he gets close.

    Very close one this because I like both. Marsden was criminally underused as cyclops I thought. Perfect actor but didn't use him right.

    Karl urban was brilliant as dredd - one of my favourite movies.

    I'm gonna vote for dredd


  • Registered Users Posts: 381 ✭✭TheKells


    I'll be voting for Judge Dredd too, never too fussed on Cyclops.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,404 ✭✭✭JustShon


    I'll break the tie and vote for Dredd.

    Cyclops was always too much of a boy scout for my tastes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,216 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    Cyclops. Used horribly in the films but a brilliant character in the comics, particularly in recent years.


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


    After the closest battle yet it's Judge Dredd that is the first to 3 votes and advances, though Cyclops did not do bad at all. Next up is a DC vs Marvel bout.

    She-Hulk

    250px-She-Hulk_vol_2_7_textless.jpg


    It's the star of Neil Gaiman's 'The Sandman' series Dream, also known by a host of names such as Morpheus and Oneiros, versus the superhuman cousin of Bruce Banner She-Hulk.

    Who is the better of these two? Vote now.

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


    I'm gonna go with She-Hulk on this one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭nibtrix


    She-Hulk!


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


    She-Hulk muscles her way into the next round. Next up we have one of the most intriguing clashes we've seen so far.


    Green Arrow

    Iron Man

    250px-Iron_Man_bleeding_edge.jpg


    It's one of the biggest DC vs Marvel clashes to date as two billionaires collide; the master archer Oliver Queen aka Green Arrow versus expert engineer Tony Stark aka Iron Man.

  • Registered Users Posts: 33,216 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    I'd have to go with Iron Man. Genius, billionaire, playboy philanthropist.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,330 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    Ironman also,for the above reasons :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭nibtrix


    Don't like this one, I'm a Green Arrow fan but I also have to go with Iron Man!


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


    Iron Man blasts his way through to Round 2 with a strong performance. Next up is another interesting one.


    Catwoman

    The Phantom

    200px-Phantomissue12mikebullock.jpg


    Probably best not to take the films of these two into account, eh? It's Batman's nemesis-turned-hero Catwoman versus The Phantom, a hero that has a family tree filled with ass-kicking crusaders.

    Who deserves to go through? Vote now.

    Catwoman!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,477 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    ya know against my better judgement I'm going to go with the Phantom here because he's a true hero ...Cat Woman started out and often switchs back to the dark side so not really a hero for me more of an anti hero


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


    One of my favourite cartoons as a kid was Defenders of the Earth, so for that reason The Phantom gets my vote.


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


    His father would be so proud as The Phantom finds a way through to Round 2. Next up is a very tasty clash.


    The Punisher

    Spawn

    215px-Spawn_Classic.jpg


    It's the battle of two anti-heros as the uncompromising vigilante The Punisher takes on the man who came back from hell Spawn.

    Which of these two badass characters progresses? Vote now.

  • Registered Users Posts: 60,279 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I like Spawn but I love The Punisher so it's the The Punisher for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    The Punisher.


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


    The Punisher, especially after Jon Benthal's portrayal of the character.


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


    The Punisher sends Spawn back to hell with a merciless performance. Next up it's a Marvel vs DC clash.


    Rogue

    Superman

    250px-SupermanRoss.png


    It's the X-Men's Rogue with the ability to absorb powers of those she touches versus one of the most iconic superheroes of all, the Man of Steel Superman.

    Who advances to Round 2? Vote now.

    Love Rogue but it's got to be Superman.

    Rogue by a country mile - I've never been a fan of Superman, even though he'll probably win this one unfortunately.

    Come on lads, vote Rogue #1.
