the'yre both never getting their own movie

One of my biggest issues with comics is the fact that almost everyone has to be invulnerable to a ridiculous extent. How many people have taken hits from the Hulk and survived inexplicably?

Kills a lot of the tension most of the time. That's one of the reasons Spider-Man is my favorite to read. Even in shitty runs like the Phoenix Force crap, you have that incredible part where he gets beat to a pulp by Colossus and Magick.

It's kinda hilarious that in the physical strength sense, DBZ is more grounded. Heh.

It's difficult to quantify DBZ characters in terms of raw strength. THey hurl around blasts that could destroy planets and even solar systems, and sometimes tank those same level attacks, but in the early Buu saga, Goku was winded working out with a mere 40 tons or so on him. Superman could lift 40 tons with a fingernail clipping. Even the weak DCAU version could do that.

Goku and Beerus fighting almost destroyed the universe.

Though as far as planets go, I still think in the DBZ universe, planets adjust to the powers of the people living there. It's why Nappa powering up can alter the weather and cause destruction of the environment, but Goku black going Super Saiyan Rose doesn't even affect the surrounding buildings all that much.

Goku got shot in the head as a kid to no effect. Krillin is just a "normal" human.

db super spoilers

goku gets shot and nearly died from a grunt energy gun attack during the golden freiza arc.

Are you serious?

yeah, why wouldn't I be?

I mean
civil war 2 end spoiler
robert downey jr is likely near the end of his days as iron man, so using civil war 2 to kill him off would make sense for the cinematic universe.

She is getting a movie. Dunno about this "Civil War 2 movie" thing.

I am assuming that in 2022-2025 or so we will have a civil war 2 movie. aka what I expect the avengers movies after the infinity wars stuff to cover.

and? Krillin is massively stronger and got hit clean through, DBS Goku got bruised by a bullet despite trying to tank it. If you want an explanation it's that the Kid Goku thing was before he learned how to raise and lower his ki, so he was always on "max". Afterwards they raise and lower(to almost nothing) constantly to fit the situation and fight more efficiently, sometimes they fuck up.

Attosecond Flash could win the upcoming DB Super Tournament by himself even if everyone in the tournament attacked him at once along with Beerus and all the other Gods of Destruction (assuming they're all about Beerus tier).
Beerus (and presumably the other Gods/Angels) can beat gag characters.
Flash doesn't stand a chance.

Professor X alone can incapacitate nearly all of the DBverse.
No one in Dragon Ball has shown any type of mental/psionic defense.

It's weird they have stopped using characters with that gimmick.

And super bullshit that Chiatzu abandoned it after being defeated by Krilin.

He'd have fucked up Nappa instead of blowing himself up to get him naked.

Carol is pretty much screwed in this battle. 18 leans much more towards melee combat and very rarely uses ki blast as seen when she beat the crap out of Super Saiyan Vegeta.

Even if she did use a blast she'd quickly figure out that Carol is absorbing it and isn't dumb enough to keep pouring on the juice so Carol isn't going to be able to reach Binary level in a fight with her.

She can always get Binary so long as she doesn't mind accidentally wiping a solar system.
 
How many do you want? I could list hundreds

Yeah, the problem is that some DB fans cant accept it. I am a DB fan. Read the manga, watched all series, movies.... but lets be real. The DB universe characters would get curb stomped by MANY many... MANY DC and Marvel characters.

In fact, here's a fun one.

Scarlet Witch vs. ALL of the DB universe and the Justice League.... set in the DC universe. Oh, and in this scenario someone just killed Quicksilver and Magneto (Krillin, Green Arrow and um Dr. Briefs cat killed them) and Dr. Strange is nowhere to be found.

Yeah.

If this was a competition in being robotic or powerful, Carol wins. If this was a competition in personality, Android 18 would win.

I hope 18 is featured more as the current arc in DBS continues. Every moment she gets lines it's either real talk or awesome talk. See her making Trunks sweat in the last arc ... that being said, Carol wins.

they have actually, Vegeta was able to resist Babidi's mind control and do whatever he wanted despite receiving the power up and getting the M on his head. If he wanted he could have completely resisted Babidi altogether but he wanted more power.

of course Babidi as a psychic pales in comparison to what Xavier has done

This is death battle. Where they assume someone like Gaara would cover himself in sand fighting against a girl who can control earth.
 

Parallax

best seen in the classic "Shadow of the Beast"
He's right.

Thor, Thanos tho some of these are borderline cosmic entities, no?
 
She needs to absorb an external energy source to go Binary. Where is she going to get one in the middle of a fight without a teammate to boost her?

A long enough fight and she would eventually absorb enough of 18s attacks to go solar system buster level. This is assuming we're talking about current 18 who, while has not shown any feats, we can assume is at least somewhere near'ish of 17, who is somewhere near or around SSB Goku.

What is magneto going to do to goku?

Tear his body apart with Katchin or some other neat stuff with Katchin. Maybe make some Katchin/Vibranium/Adamantium alloy and wreck his shit with that? Many options really. Oh, and lets not forget that Katchin was used by Zamasu (who much like Scott Summers.... was right) against Vegetto.
