Challenge Could Iron Man stop civilization from collapsing in TWD's universe?

121 Upvotes

MCU Iron Man is dropped into The Walking Dead universe on Day 1 of the outbreak.

He doesn't know the outbreak's real cause going in: the pathogen is already latent in every living human, not just something spread by bites. This isn't revealed in-universe until the CDC arc, so no meta-knowledge.

Goal isn't "survive." Goal is: prevent a full civilizational collapse while buying time for someone (anyone or himself) to find a cure or containment method and get back to normal.

Could he do it?

Battle Can humanity stop an army of superhumans from conquering the world?

22 Upvotes

10 superhumans each appear in the capital of every country in the world (1,950 in total). Their goal is to collectively conquer the world as soon as possible by any means necessary. They have as much knowledge about the world as an average Westerner.

Can humanity stop them?

The superhumans have super strength (10 tons), durability (it takes a direct hit by an 20mm armor piercing projectile or more to kill them), speed (Mach 1), reflexes (millisecond reaction time), flight (Mach 1), healing (their bodies are completely rejuvenated once a day), stamina (they only need to sleep once a week) and omnilingualism (they speak and understand every language).

Battle The Invincible Variants in the Invincible War are replaced by the 18 Primarchs (Warhammer 40k), can the world survive?

8 Upvotes

As above, instead of the Invincible Variants, Angstrom Levy decides to throw the Primarchs from Warhammer 40k at Invincible's world. Can the GDA and Heroes stop them, and if not do they do as much damage as the invincible variants did before being stopped?

Round 1: All Pre-Heresy Primarchs spawn in Chigaco and have to work their way outward. They have their standard wargear.

Round 2: Alpharius, Omegon, Corvus Corax, and Konrad Curze are sent to Earth in secret 6 months before the rest show up and can Sabotage GDA/World Governments, Assassinate, whatever they can manage to do without getting caught.

Round 3: Same as Round 2 except all the primarchs have their Daemon Forms/Warp Powerups except for Horus. The Primarchs are scattered across the world's most densely populated cities instead of spawning in one place.

Round 4: Same as above except the Primarchs each brought their Flagships, and Ten Chapters of Space Marines from each of their Legions. The Ships won't use Exterminatus grade weaponry but will bombard from orbit, send Space Marines via drop pod or Teleport, etc.

Battle Thor (Marvel Comics) VS Wonder Woman (Marvel Comics)

9 Upvotes

Thor, the Asgardian God of Thunder and son of Odin.

Wonder Woman, warrior princess of Themyscira and daughter of Hippolyta.

It is often said superheroes are the closest modern-day equivalents to ancient myths, and perhaps for no one else is that description as...Literal as these two peerless warriors. Hailing from lands of valour and justice, these two founding heroes enter the world of man to prove that, sometimes, the gods answer prayers...Directly. But, in a classic match of Avenger VS Justice Leaguer, will the prince of the golden realm claim victory, or will the archetypal wonder prove her victory the truth of the matter? You better believe, because it’s time to find out!

Standard source material for a Marvel/DC match (IE Pre-Crisis, Post-Crisis, New 52 and all the rest of mainline DC for Wondy, and Earth-616 for Thor), both are Bloodlusted, let's watch a clash of titans.

Battle The Empire (Legend of the Galactic Heroes) vs. The Covenant

3 Upvotes

The Empire from Legend of the Galactic heroes is fairly low sci-fi compared to a lot of other universes. It doesn't really have much in the way of shields, its weapons are particle weapons and on the ground the Empire uses fairly standard human soldiers with only basic cybernetic prosthetics to replace lost limbs.

What they do have however is numbers. A fleet in the Legend of the Galactic Heroes universe can have hundreds of thousands of ships and millions of crewmen lost in a single battle and the Empire can just tank the loss. They control a spiral arm of the galaxy.

They also have two death stars with giant death cannons and pretty decent FTL.

The covenant on the other hand has shields, elite troops, plasma weapons, and thousands of very tough ships. Enough to reduce the hundreds of worlds the UNSC had to ruins.

In this scenario we're just replacing their usual opponents with each other. There's no flood or Halos, no free planets alliance, and no Imperial civil war. It's just the Empire as run by Reinhard Von Lohengramm vs. The Covenant as the UNSC originally met them.

Here's some information on the Empire for people unfamiliar with them:

https://gineipaedia.com/wiki/Iserlohn_Fortress
https://gineipaedia.com/wiki/Geiersburg_Fortress

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8obhySoWRLc

Also important to note are Zephyr particles, which necessitate melee combat on many occasions, as firing energy weapons will vaporize the whole army when they're deployed. This likely won't be as advantageous against the covenant, but it is worth noting. They also occasionally use them in space.

Will quantity beat quality, or will the humans die as quickly to the Covenant in this universe as they did in the Halo universe?

Challenge Could Human!Jason Voorhees(Friday the 13th/Part 4 Jason) survive in Arkham Aslyum (Batman: BTAS version)

2 Upvotes

Hi again! Second post here and it's another one I've had on the brain for a while/been annoying both my online and rl friends with because I've been asking so many of them to try and get different answers.

The scenario is as such: Bruce hears the musings of a 'Jason Voorhees' near Crystal Lake (I've always taken Gotham as being in Illinois or somewhere in New Jersey lol) and he's...somewhat skeptical (given how out-of-universe a lot of the crew from Part 1 didn't care for Jason being made the killer/this mentally challenged kid somehow survived for himself in the woods for years and NOBODY noticed him??) He goes and confronts what he thinks is a madman using this Jason mythos to enact a bloody massacre.

Turns out it's Clayface who'd been posing as Jason to prey on the fools who'd believe it...but he wasn't behind any of the actual murders which still leaves one question: who was? Cue the REAL Jason (I'm thinking around Part 4 era Jason?) shows up and I'm gonna be honest I don't think Human OR Zombie!Jason really gives Bruce that much trouble. I feel especially in this case he'd be more worried about Clayface than the human serial killer. Batman subdues the both of them, that's not a shocker to me. What I'm most interested in is after Jason gets tossed into Arkham:

-Is there any chance that Batman could possibly get through to Jason, get him to see the errors of his ways? Get him to accept the help that some of the other wackjobs in Arkham gleefully decline? Convince Jason not to aid in a break out?
-Could Jason survive in Arkham/co-mingling with the other inmates? Or would he end up getting himself killed during a more notorious criminal's escape attempt?

The win condition for Jason here would if he can survive long enough to break out on his own. If another villain escapes and offers Jason a chance to go with them that works too but I'd need an actual suggestion, not just 'Joker escapes and Jason slinks out in the chaos'

BONUS: All of this but applied to Zombie!Jason(Part 6) He's still sentient enough to be aware of what he's doing (murder) but I was curious if his already impressive strength means that breaking out on his own might be easier

Battle Mello (Death Note) Vs. Lalo Salamanca (Better Call Saul)

3 Upvotes

While on his mission to bring down the infamous invisible serial killer murdering various criminals all across the world via inflicting them with fatal heart attacks, Kira, Mihael Keehl, AKA Mello, arrives in the city in Albuquerque, New Mexico in America from Kanto, Japan to track down a member of the Juarez Cartel who had been killed by Kira in town recently, and try to gather any information on who this man was so he can use it to take Kira down after finding out his true identity. However, as this happens, one of the cartel's most infamous members, Lalo Salamanca, ends up hearing about a member of the mafia coming into THEIR territory to potentially claim it for themselves, and not wanting to have his family's turf be taken over by some foreigner, Lalo decides to track down Mello in order to take him out, leading to a battle of wits between the two of them.

The battle of wits takes place in Albuquerque, New Mexico at nighttime. Mello has access to his pistol, smg, C4, and smoke bombs, and Lalo has access to his Glock 17, Daniel Defense M4A1, razor blade, and camcorder. Both Mello and Lalo must use their intellect, allies (i.e. the Mafia Syndicate, Matt, and Halle Lider for Mello, and the Juarez Cartel, the rest of the Salamanca family consisting of Hector, Tuco, Marco, and Leonel, and Nacho Varga for Lalo) and resources in order to hunt their opponent down, narrow in on them, and kill them, and therefore by doing so, defeating them in the process (i.e. either Mello or Lalo taking out the other with their weapons and gear).

Who wins?

Battle Koopa Troop (Super Mario) vs Equestria (My Little Pony G4) army fight

3 Upvotes

This is a matchup I’ve actually wanted to see Death Battle or fan channels like Fan Battle and Fan War do for a while now because I vibe with the whole “kingdom made from different species of creatures” thing.

Okay now let’s just get started

Round 1:
Bowser has the mainline Mario games, the mobile games, all the RPGs, all the Mario Kart, Paper Mario and Mario Party games, all the booklets, the official Nintendo Youtube channels, side series (such as the Wario Land games or Donkey Kong games), the Mario Sports (like Strikers or Tennis) games and the Illumination duology accounted for him and his army

Equestria has the mainline Friendship is Magic show, all Equestria Girls media and all the IDW comics canons (excluding the Transformers and Generations crossovers) accounted for it. G5 show and comics are viable, but only for Spike and Discord (since they’re the only G4 characters who show up in them anyway lol)

Koopa Troop army members: Bowser (with access to Giant Bowser, Meowser, Dry Bowser (the one that’s a form of Bowser), Fury Bowser, Castle/Wonder Bowser and Dreamy Bowser), Bowser Junior (with access to Shadow Mario, Wonder Bowser Jr, and Fury Bowser Jr from the Galaxy Movie), Kamek, all of the Koopalings (with access to their Wonder Forms), King Boo (Luigi’s Mansion + all other media that fits the above criteria for what to account for the Koopa Troop), King Bob-omb, Goomboss, King Whomp, Petey Pirahna, Gooper Blooper, Kammy Koopa, Dry Bowser (the one that’s a separate character from Bowser himself), Kamella, Boom Boom, Pom Pom, General Guy, the Ruined Dragon, Megaleg, Prince Frog, Bunson the Hot Dog, all members of the Elite Trio, Madame Broode, all of the Broodals, the Koopa General from the 2023 movie, all members of the Elite Captain Quartet (from Bowser’s Minions), and every single standard Koopa Troop member (with access to Fake/Imposter Bowser)

Koopa Troop arsenal: Bowser’s castle airship (from the 2023 movie), all the airships from the games, Mecha Bowser (from Sunshine), Bowser’s mech (from Mario Party: Star Rush), the Muscle Car, all the Clown Cars, all the Karts, all the Tanks, Bowser Junior’s paintbrush, all wands, all standard minion weapons (A Hammer Bros’s hammer etc), the Star Rod, the Bubble Cloning Machine, the Boomsday Machine, the Pure Hearts, the Dream Stone, the Wonder Flower, the Pixls, the Power, Grand and Super Stars, all items from the spinoffs (the Mario Kart Blue Shell etc), all sports equipment and all the power up items (including the double cherries and the items from the RPGs and Paper Mario games)

Equestria army members: All members of the Mane Six (with access to their Rainbow Power and Power Pony forms), Spike (post-Molt Down, with access to Hum Drum and his giant form from Secret of My Excess), Princesses Celestia, Luna and Cadence, Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, Starlight Glimmer, Sunburst, Trixie Lulamoon, Sunset Shimmer, all the Pillars, Stygian (no Pony of Shadows), all members of the Young/Student Six, Discord, Tempest Shadow, all the Wonderbolts, Autumn Blaze, Prince Rutherford, Thorax, Pharynx, Rain Shine, Queen Novo, Princess Skystar, General Sea Spray, Ember, Dragon Lord Torch, Grampa Gruff, Chief Thunderhooves, Little Strongheart, all members of the Cutie Mark Crusaders (including Gabby and Babs Seed), Gilda, Capper, all members of the each of the Mane Six’s families, Daring Do, Captain Celaeno and all members of her crew, and all heroic/neutral members of the heroic creature tribes/species that make sense to be here (including all royal guards and soldiers and generic hero or neutral characters who don’t really stand out much like Garble, Terramar, Greta, Derpy, Doctor Whooves etc but excluding antagonists like Prince Blueblood or Gladmane)

Equestria arsenal: Captain Celaeno’s ship, all MLP airships (except those owned by the Storm King), the Elements of Harmony, the Alicorn Amulet, the Bewitching Bell, the Crystal Heart, the Rings of Scorchero, Mage Meadowbrook’s eight enchanted items, and all of Starswirl’s magic scrolls

Round 2: Same as Round 1 but Bowser and the Koopa Troop gets Skylanders (including Hammer Slam Bowser and his hammer), the Rabbids crossovers (including the Bowzooka and Mecha Jr but no MegaDragonBowser) and Smash Bros (including Giga Bowser) and Equestria gets the Transformers and Generations crossovers as well

Round 3: Same as Round 1 but Equestria doesn’t have Discord

Round 4: Same as Round 2 but Equestria doesn’t have Discord

All rounds take place on a gigantic open field

I will make a follow up post after a suitable amount of the BOOM! Studios My Little Pony comics are released

Charlie Dog's a Chuck Jones Looney Tunes character who's whole shtick is trying to look for a home and an owner. Unfortunately for Makima, he's got his eye set on her as his new owner, and she doesn't want him.

Could Charlie Dog manage to drive her crazy? As in, would he be able to make her drop her cold act and absolutely lose her mind?

Everyone's in-character.

The only rule is that Makima can't just kill Charlie Dog (assuming she even can in the first place)

Obviously in a Romero style zombie apocalypse, a 20th level DnD 5e wizard is just going to decide they no longer vibe with the state of things, and wish their way out, or find a better plane to live in.

The real question is what is the strongest zombie apocalypse (romero, l4d/l4d2, world war z, twd, etc) a person could survive with the weakest magic system and personal level of ability(DnD 5e, harry potter, mistborn, full metal alchemist, etc)?

Round 1 - Survive solo
Bonus Round 2 - Thrive. Enough to single-handedly rebuild a community or society with more than the basic creature comforts.
