Superman
Zatanna
Firestorm

Now I am reconsidering my vote for Prof X. Sure he is powerful, but Superman is fast and could clobber him before he can think...

One blast of heat vision...

Or super ventriloquism to pretend to whisper sweet nothings from Jean Grey into the Prof's ear to distract him. Super creep.

That's it, I'm changing!

I want to remind participants that this is the current version of Superman and not Pre-Crisis Superman.

Does this version still have super breath? That would do it. Hard to think in a gale of saliva!

A lot depends on his speed as well.

That would depend on whether he has his chair, can walk or is possessed by something that makes him walk. We are talking about Xavier?

This version of Xavier is shortly before "All-New X-Men, All Different X-Men", when they introduced Storm, Wolverine, etc. to a larger audience. By the way, anyone seen Myg lately?

Myg has been around less than before, but does post still from time to time.

These are the results per my count. At this stage, I just use a notepad and count what people post (which is probably why I get the most errors).

Superman 2
Zatanna 3
Firestorm 1
Martian Manhunter 3
Shazam 1
Professor X 2

So the next 'official' matches would be: Martian Manhunter vs. Professor X and Superman vs. Zatanna. For the sake of time, if a Moderator wants to speed this up and run it without me, feel free. Otherwise, you can use this thread for other fights until I return. I will be in an area with little Internet access for a week.

I can run it for you, Emily.

Okay, so recap:

Superman vs. Professor X - tie - both advance
Zatanna vs. Shazam/Captain Marvel - 3-1 in favor of Zatanna
Martian Manhunter vs. Firestorm - 3-1 in favor of J'Onn


Next:

Martian Manhunter vs. Professor X
Superman vs. Zatanna


Vote for your picks for the two matches!

I think we can keep this open until you return, Emily. I think you should have the honor of closing this round =) Although, there WILL be a round after this...

My votes:

Martian Manhunter!
Zatanna (yeah, I know Supes is fast, but all the time Zatanna needs is to cast one spell...)

Martian Manhunter (his telepathy is enough to blunt Prof Creepy until he can use Martian vision)
Superman (just one blast of superbreath/ heat vision is enough to catch out Zee before she can say a meaningful spell.)

Martian Manhunter
Superman (While her power level fluctuates with the needs of the story, her "Typical" elemental combat magic wouldn't be enough to effectively counter Supes long enough to put him down)

Martian Manhunter
Superman

(Sorry about my absence - got caught up in moving and my wifi is still erratic)

Thank you for running the game in my absence. Here are my votes:

Martian Manhunter vs. Professor X- Professor X, even alien empresses respect his power
Superman vs. Zatanna- Zatanna, as she has more versatility. I like his museum in Metropolis though.

I will keep this thread open until 10:30 P.M tomorrow night (Central US Time)

Martian Manhunter - has the telepathy plus

Zatanna - Supes is vulnerable to magic

tie for second match!

my pleasure Emily, thanks for starting and running this exciting game

I went to bed early last night, so here are the results now.

Martian Manhunter 5
Professor X 1
Zatanna 3
Superman 3

DC won the Towers game a long time ago, so what remains is to have one winner per the fans (that is you) requests. I think the best way to resolve the current situation is a three person brawl.

Martian Manhunter vs. Zatanna vs. Superman

Remember that two of these could team up against a third before turning on each other.

Martian Manhunter took down Ultraman in moments in Earth 2, and the Martian prevails despite some heat vision injuries. But a moment is all Zee needs to summon up a wall of fire. The Martian may escape from it at super speed, but that just gives Zee the chance to emulate something she picked up from the Scarlet Witch back stage... "No More...Martians." And that's the end of that. Zee for the win.

Technicallt Z would say "On erom snaitram!"


I give it to Martian Manhunter. I think Both J'onn & Z would see Supes as the main threat and would both go after him. As I said before Supes is vulnerable to magic, so Zee would take him out. Meanwhile J'onn could use his telepathy to scramble Z's thoughts so she could not cast a spell against him.

Martian Manhunter for the win. he turns intangible, then before Zatanna can cast magic he telepathically shuts her down. He can then do the same to Superman at his leisure.

Has Zee been replaced by Wanda?! Are Marvel poised to win after all?! Is Wanda a Skrull?!
