Image Comics crossover series: Batman and Spawn is a story where the two dark characters battle it out for a brief time before uniting and fighting against the forces of evil. In this fight between Spawn and Batman, the victor would be Spawn. Even though Batman would dominate in hand-to-hand combat, Spawn would have the edge because of his supernatural abilities. His cape alone would halt any sneak attack from Batman, even killing him. Using the shadows or gadgets for deception against Spawn would be useless. But what if Batman kept the Yellow Power Ring? Batman could become the greatest yellow lantern next to Sinestro, or even replace him as leader of the Sinestro Corps. With the mastery of the Yellow Power Ring, Batman would have the chance to dominate Spawn. The yellow power ring is ultimately powered from a cosmic entity versus supernatural powers from Hell’s dimension.

Spawn’s armor works similarly to a Lantern Ring in the effect that he could shape shift his armor with his thoughts. Since Spawn is among the undead, how powerful do you think he could become if he joined the Black Lantern Corps? This could amplify his powers to unmeasurable levels, not only from the ring but because Spawn’s armor would constantly feed from the darkness and evil that the Black Lantern Corps gives off. In the comic storyline, Spawn freed his soul, and his armor took on an angelic form. Could this mean Spawn also become recruited into the White Lantern Corps like Batman? What levels of power would Spawn reach then?Heroes will battle each other, only to discover strengths and weaknesses between them. Eventually heroes join together to serve a bigger purpose than their battle. Just imagine if a crossover film were produced with the Sinestro Corps Batman and Spawn. This would excite comic fans visually when seeing Batman wield powers with a supernatural being as his partner.

Since Batman rejected the Yellow Power Ring, do you think Nightwing would refuse such power? Even the game Injustice is inspired by such idea. Dick Grayson may have a liking in using the ring than his mentor. On some occasions, Batman had chances to be among the superpowered, but it always resulted in him remaining his normal self.

The showdown between Batman and Iron Man is a popular topic among comic fans. Both Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark are leaders in their own worlds as businessmen and fearless warriors as heroes. But which character reigns supreme? Let’s start with the comparison of both companies: Wayne Enterprises and Stark Industries. Not only are both companies’ giants in the technology and weapon industries, but Wayne Enterprises also has monopolies in agriculture, media and commodities. Having influence on the economic flow throughout the world creates astonishing wealth for Bruce Wayne. With his technology and resources, Bruce Wayne has created the Watchtower for the Justice League. With this, Wayne Tech has more in common with the Star Trek technology than the fantasy Enterprise Space Armor concept for Iron Man…

What if Bruce Wayne used The Bleeding Edge Armor concept for himself? How convenient it would be for Bruce Wayne to shift into his batsuit like Tony Stark, Black Panther and even Superman. Tony Stark’s R.T Tech has enhanced his body, making Tony superhuman. This would also be a great addition to Bruce if he were to use it help aid him as Batman. But ask yourself this: has the batsuit become similar to the Iron Man armors with the Batwing Armor? Isn’t Wayne’s tech not too far from Tony’s potential?

In cinema, both characters made big production in sales, with Batman in the lead. This is because Batman has been on the movie screen since 1989. Fans prefer the Christian Bale Batman over the others mainly because of the vision from Christopher Nolan. Was Robert Downey Jr an excellent choice for Iron Man? How exciting would it be to have a live action sequence of these two characters at their full potential…. 

In the film Avenger: Infinity War, was the Russo Brothers paying homage to Batman vs Ironman in the battle scene with Thanos on Titan with the flocking bats? Both Iron Man and Batman have experienced greater power in their own universes with the Infinity Gauntlet and the Lantern Power Rings. As powerful as the Infinity Gauntlet is, would the combination of the white, green, yellow and black power ring be enough for Batman to take on Iron Man? With the use of universal power, who do you think is the best wielder of cosmic power as a mortal? In battle without costume or gadgets and it’s just man to man; Bruce Wayne walks away with win. With the suits and gadgets, the win would still go to Batman. Which side do you pick? Comic Multiverse fan favorite artwork of Iron Man vs Batman goes to the DeviantArt artist DeemonProductions!

Spawn and Ghost Rider is among many popular crossover topics within the comic community, mainly because of their similarities. Both characters wield supernatural powers originating from Hell through a pact with the Devil(Mephisto/ Malebolgia). Later through trial and error of their ways, both characters broke free from their hellish influence and used Hell’s power to free their own souls. They have major differences that determine the outcome of such a battle. Let’s dig in…

Al Simmons was recruited to become the general of Hell’s Army. As general, his power would come second to his master Malebolgia. Spawn’s supernatural powers stem from his symbiotic armor. The armor is a living organism which is infused in Al Simmons’s nervous system, allowing him to control the symbiotic armor with his thoughts, conscious or unconscious. The armor is filled with necroplasm, which has a functioning concept like Green Power Ring. The armor responds and morphs to the will and imagination of Al Simmons. On Earth, Spawn’s magical powers are in limited supply, so his symbiotic armor feeds off evil or dark energy. The bigger the source, the more power it can consume and use without depleting its own power reserves. Battling Ghost Rider would be perfect for Spawn because Ghost Rider’s powers and abilities are supernatural and evil in origin. This battle would keep Spawn fully powered enough to use his magical abilities at maximum potential.

Johnny Blaze was destined to become agent of evil as the Ghost Rider. The Rider’s existence becomes possible from the union between Johnny Blaze and Zarathos. Zarathos is a demonic being in servitude to Mephisto as Violator is with Malebogia. This union is also similar to the Phoenix Force bonding with Jean Grey thus creating Phoenix and Dark Phoenix. Johnny Blaze can revert back and forth as the Ghost Rider at will, instead of only in the presence of evil. With demonic power at his disposal, Ghost Rider can control the mystical fire of Hell, which he channels through weapons or vehicles, making them supernaturally more powerful than before. Seemingly with no limit to his power, Ghost Rider is considered one of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe.

Ultimately this battle comes down to the men who are hosts to the power, Al Simmons vs Johnny Blaze. Al Simmons’s training made him an excellent military assassin. Johnny Blaze is a stunt performer, where his mental focus is on surviving death-defying feats than any physical combat training. Spawn has evolved to his higher form, Omega Spawn. This results in unlimited power on both the mortal and immortal planes, making himself third in power next to the power of Heaven and Hell. Ghost Rider is considered one of most powerful in his universe, but his god like potential is not fully realize because of the combat mentality of his mortal host. Would Ghost Rider stand a better chance against Omega Spawn if he fuses with the Venom symbiote and the Red Hulk, or will he fall just as hard under the might of Omega Spawn??

Daredevil vs Batman is among the popular crossover topics discussed by comic fans. This popularity influenced the creation of the intercompany crossover comics: Eye For An Eye and King of New York. Bruce and Matt are the sons of murdered parents. They trained in their upbringings to become avengers to the innocent. Both heroes created themselves in a frightful image to strike fear in the criminal underworld. They have many similarities and differences which makes a crossover battle interesting. Maybe one day, we will see this crossover in live animation like Batman V Superman….

Marvel Comics Hell’s Kitchen is no difference than the Hell’s Kitchen of our world. This section of New York includes low-income housing, violence and gangs. It is a living nightmare or hell as some may see it, so choosing the symbol of a devil seems fitting for Matt Murdock. One major difference between Daredevil and Batman is that Daredevil has intentions on killing his enemies like Bullseye. Daredevil may not directly kill someone, but he won’t save them from death either. This categorized Daredevil as an anti-hero.

Gotham City is a fictional city in the DC Universe. Gotham City is filled with much corruption, ranging from politicians down to the local street gangs. This city has tall gothic architectural style buildings and statues. With this environment Batman strikes the likeness of Dracula. Batman refrains from killing criminals even though his methods of intimidation make a person feel as if death were close. Many have died indirectly through different situations involving Batman but never intended to be killed beforehand. In the end, most criminal are handed over to Gotham Police Department or sent to Arkham Asylum. 

Having superpowers gives Daredevil an edge on Batman. His radar sense gives him excellent equilibrium with his martial arts. With his radar sense, Daredevil could lock onto his opponents with his senses before even reaching them. Hiding from Daredevil is nearly impossible. Daredevil’s super reflexes allow him to avoid most projectile attacks, especially that of a speeding bullet or a flying batarang. His sonar abilities are also his weakness. Extreme noise at high frequency could overwhelm Daredevil, like it would Venom. 

Since Batman has no superpowers, he must use his tactical weapons as an extension of himself. Batman’s utility belt is his armory and archive, meaning the utility belt contain gadgets made ready for normal civilians to superhumans he has encountered in the past. With this arsenal, Batman has won most of his battles and survived a lot of near-death experiences. In the case of Daredevil, it wouldn’t take Batman much time to figure out Daredevil’s abilities and the weaknesses. The weakness is what the Dark Knight will focus on, one blast from Batman’s sonic devastator Daredevil would be immobilized.

Even though this is a fantasy battle between the two characters, heroes will always benefit from each other instead of fighting. What if Batman enhanced Daredevil’s costume to make it similar to his own? For instance, Batman could re-create Daredevil’s mask to the point where it could dampen harmful incoming sound, eliminating his weaknesses of overwhelming sound waves. Batman could also create a utility belt for Daredevil. Its main function is a sonic receiver and transmitter. This high-powered utility belt could work in unison with the mask. It could boost Daredevil’s radar sense to the point where the entire city of New York can be viewed from one location, much like Superman scanning over Earth with his super hearing or Morbius using echolocation. The exterior of the costume could be made in a special Nomex M5 material which would stand against intense heat while the inside becomes cooler, preventing Matt from burning or overheating while standing in flames.

Who Are You Betting On In This Fight?

What if… Tony Stark‘s technology crossed into the Star Trek Universe?! The advanced technology of Star Trek would be wonders for Tony Stark. He could develop his armors even further equipping them with stellar navigation or even combine Star Fleet’s warp core technology with his arc reactor tech. With this, the Stark armor could survive deep space and even achieve warp speeds. This would allow Iron Man to travel alongside the likes of Silver Surfer or Green Lantern with ease.Tony Stark could supply the Federation with the blueprint plans for advanced armored suits. The Federation could use Tony’s armors for planetary exploration or a non-detectable advantage over enemies in war. Would you agree that if such armored suits were created for the Federation, the space jump in the 2009– and 2013-Star Trek films be much cooler? Let’s imagine…

Not only could Tony Stark use the Star Fleet’s technology for his armored suits, but he could also enhance S.H.I.E.L.D. For example, The Helicarrier  could be equipped much like the USS Enterprise. The Helicarrier could run on anti-matter propulsion engines, equipped with transporters on board, deflector shields and advanced weaponry. Both universes could benefit each other greatly with Tony Stark’s brilliance. Could you imagine such technology crossed over between the two universes, how they can go hand in hand with one another?

Thor vs Superman is a classic battle that has happened in the comic book JLA/Avengers, which is disappointing to fans. Thor’s hammer Mjolnir is a powerful enchanted weapon giving Thor additional powers like the manipulation of the fundamental forces of the universes. How is it possible for Superman to wield it? Could becoming an officer to the most powerful Lantern Corps (White and Black) and team leader to the Justice League make him worthy of wielding Mjolnir? This is disappointing to fans because one of Superman’s main weaknesses is vulnerability to magic. Superman barely survived a kryptonite bullet from Metallo, and a fight with Doomsday. So how would he survive the blows from Thor’s mighty hammer? Since Thor is a god, he can match Superman’s strength and speed any day. If Thor gets enraged, he enters Warriors’ Madness. In this state Thor’s power increase tenfold, making him mentally uncontrollable, attacking friends and foes alike resulting in devastation. Warrior’s Madness is similar to Wolverine‘s Berserker Rage and a saiyan’s Oozaru form, all increasing the power of the character tenfold.

Superman’s powers would need super charging from the yellow sun to battle Thor and to withstand Mjolnir. But what if Superman used his new costume Captain Marvel developed in the Mortal Kombat vs DC Comics storyline to battle Thor? With magic eliminated from this battle, would this make Superman on even terms with Thor? More than likely. Superman is no stranger to fighting godlike beings such as Darkseid.

Without that concept Thor would come out as the champion in this fight, due to his magical abilities. Who do you believe is the real victor of this bout?

The Asgardian Frost Giant Prince vs The Ruler of Latveria is a topic of speculation among comic fans. These two villains are matched up because both characters have the desire to obtain rulership of Asgard and the power it contains. Dr. Doom is a genius mortal who can outwit and obtain powers from cosmic beings or sources. Loki is a lower-level god who is only successful in dominating beings who are mentally and physically weaker than himself. In this case, the bridge between Loki and Dr. Doom is relatively small….

Dr. Doom’s greatest power is his mind. Since his youth, he desired to acquire knowledge and power for himself, and he succeeded. Dr. Doom is considered to be one of the most powerful minds in the Marvel Universe. As such, he can create any device needed to give himself the upper hand in any situation, even to rival the technical genius of Batman, Iron Man and Reed Richards. Throughout the comics, Dr. Doom’s taste for power has been taken to extraordinary heights: becoming wielder of the Infinity Gauntlet and taking on cosmos powers such as Galactus and Silver Surfer. Dr. Doom’s downfall lies with attaining too much power. His arrogance blinds him creating more setbacks than accomplishments.  Loki is also known to have a genius level intellect as well as being a master sorcerer in his realm of Asgard. Since Loki is of Asgard and The Frost Giants, he is physically superior to Dr. Doom. Loki has a desire to acquire more power like Dr. Doom, but his child like manner wouldn’t allow him to have a defined purpose for his power other than challenging his half-brother Thor. This results in his defeat and punishment by his father Odin. Loki’s arrogance as a higher being blinds the fact that mere mortals could beat him at his own game every time.

In this battle, Loki is more than likely to underestimate the power of Dr. Doom because he is mortal. Dr. Doom is a strategist and mentally would dominate Loki. If need be, could take over the body Loki, if physically beaten. With the battle history of the two villains, you would likely find a DoomBot in battle than the real Doom. Loki more than likely control a being such as the Destroyer to fight the battle for him or even the Hulk. Who do you think would win in such a battle?

What if…….Atrocitus was able to recruit the Dark Phoenix to his Red Lantern Corps?! The Phoenix Force is an entity described as the child of the universe, free-spirited and dangerous if not properly controlled or guided on the right path. With this power, Atrocitus believes could be on the same power levels as the White and Black Lantern Corps…Using his immense power, Atrocitus created a dimensional portal and entered the Marvel Universe right after Dark Phoenix consumed a star. The destruction fascinated Atrocitus, leaving the feeling that such power could empower his Lantern Corps greatly. Atrocitus intercepted the Dark Phoenix in space flight before the nearby Shi’ar flagship who also witnessed the destruction could retaliate. Using his power ring, Atrocitus opens a gateway to the Red Power Battery on Ysmault. He signals the release of The Butcher from the central battery. The Butcher comes through the portal confronting the Phoenix Force. The two entities clash in a cosmic spectacle, learning and adapting to one another.

As the two entities dance in a cosmic showcase, Dark Phoenix hovers in space, waiting for the Phoenix Force to return to her. Atrocitus used this time to slip the Red Power Ring onto Jean’s finger, sealing the bond between the two entities. Red electric fire erupted outward in all directions as the transformation to the Red Lantern Corps began. During this time, The Phoenix Force began to fuse with The Butcher entity as well. Atrocitus believed if he couldn’t get direct control over the Phoenix Force, he could at least have control over its host.

As the Phoenix Force was being molded with The Butcher, it had a sense of bondage and lashed wildly like a caged animal. Anger and rage began to grow rapidly within the Phoenix Force as it struggled. Once the merger was complete, the energy given off was so tremendous, its power funneled down to each power ring of the Red Lantern Corps. Members of the Red Lantern Corps no longer had the weakness of blind rage, now that it was consumed by the Phoenix Force. In exchange, each member developed mental clarity strong enough to create the most powerful constructs among all the other Lantern Corps. The Phoenix Force grants members immortality and as long as the Phoenix Force remains confined in the Red Power Battery, the power rings stay charged indefinitely.

When realizing that rage is just one of many emotions of the Spectrum, The Phoenix Force gained a curiosity for the other Lantern Corps and secretly vowed to conquer them all. With the power of two cosmic entities and the Sith Lords, can the Red Lantern Corps be stopped in their quest for universal and dimensional conquest?

Superman vs The Hulk is among one of the most popular comic crossover battles of all time. It’s common to find that this fight is based on favoritism instead of the physical facts, facts which determines the winner. Primarily, both character could be evenly matched when it comes to strength, durability and longevity to a certain degree. Both characters have evolved in power since their origins, but who is really the strongest?

Superman has greater speed than The Hulk, along with his additional powers of flight, heat vision and super breath. These powers are manifested by Superman’s cells absorbing yellow sunlight. If Superman were to take this battle into the air or space, the battle would be in favor to Superman. The Hulk’s momentum can only produce results if he is grounded. Superman is vulnerable to kryptonite and magic but in this fight, neither would be available at The Hulk’s disposal.

The Hulk’s strength is produced through his uncontrollable rage, which is due to Bruce Banner exposure to gamma radiation. The more he gets angry the stronger he becomes. Despite not being able to fly, have x-ray or heat vision, the Hulk’s adaptable durability allows him to withstand the abilities that Superman may use against him. Superman’s super speed and strength combined would throw Hulk in a blind rage, for fighting a strong and quicker opponent would frustrate and anger him. The Hulk is most vulnerable when he is in the state of Bruce Banner, where Superman and Clark Kent are one in the same….

Over the years, both characters have evolved to different levels of power which respectfully makes both characters the top of their class in the Marvel and DC Universe. When heroes battle each other, it’s a test of strength and honor not winner or loser in most cases. Since this crossover battle is so popular among comic fans, how come Marvel and DC haven’t created a film adaptation of the comic? Until that time and thanks to Michael Habjan, comic fans can get an excellent perspective of how such a battle could happen….
