The Blogger Cooler

You know, like the conversations around your office water cooler? Only, the conversations will be with cooler people. And you don't have to be afraid of your boss listening to your conversation. And, you can say anything you want during your conversation. Okay, so I guess it's nothing like the conversations around your office water cooler. Just leave a comment, dammit!

Who's the Biggest Butt-Kicker?

You guys know I'll never post anything intellectual on this board right?

Here's a debate I had once with "Lisa" and Eliza. If you're not a comic book fan, you probably won't get it...

Who would win in a fight to the death: The Justice League or the X-Men?

Assuming the JL is Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, The Martian Manhunter, Flash, and Hawkgirl. The X-Men are Professor X, Storm, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Rogue, and Cyclops.

Discuss, debate, relax, relate, release, whatever... ;)

Well, I am not much of a comic fan, but I will have to say the Justice League...why? Because Wonder Woman kicks A$$!!!!

Justice League, because you all know my "thing" for Wonder Woman (if you've read my blog).

Put her in her skateboarding mode (complete with heels) and give her a tiny piece of dental floss and she'd singlehandedly kick their butts - and still keep her hair and tiara in place.

I'm glad desiree shares my opinion :)

The key here is to take out the Prof first.
If you don't, than the X-men win EASILY.

If his mind control mumbo jumbo doesn't work on alien minds, the JLA would hand the X-men they're collective "Mutie" ass.

Not only did I have this arguement with my buddies years ago, we used to play the Marvel Superhero RPG and decided to give it a go. Substituting the Squadron Supreme for the JLA with minor adjustments.

If you don't take out the prof FIRST, it's all over!

Wow, I haven't had to use my "fanboy" knowledge like that for awhile!

Has JLA raised a large "anti-mutant", militas roming the streets kind of fuss?

Does Prof. X's mind control work on aliens?

Would this be a go home and lick your wounds kind of fight, or are we talking about a us-or-them fight to the death bloodbath?

And, most importantly, does Gleek get to play?

I need more input before I can hazard a guess.

Dez and Squishi: I love WW too. But, WW alone won't win this battle. Jean might mess with her mind and then drop a house on her. ;)

Aww, see that's the question J- does mind control work on aliens? In other words, how easily can the X-Men get rid of the Martian Manhunter.

Didn't Prof. X speak telpathically with Lilandra of the Shi-Ar? At least some of his powers would seem to work on aliens.

KOM: This is an all out fight. The fight of all fights. The whole team doesn't have to survive. The team with the last man standing wins. And, although I read many comic books, you'll have to let me know who Gleek is. ;)

If mind control works on aliens i'd say x-man would wipe the floor with the justice league.

 
At 12:18 AM, Blogger Squishi said...

Starterbutton, i'm very upset with you. I would have thought that sitting next to me at work would have at least put you more into the Wonder Woman is Wonderful mode, even if by submliminal brainwaves shooting out of my head in your direction.

Oh the shame, the shame :< I'm never buying you coffee again!

Did anyone see that episode of angel where they had the argument about who would win a fight between cave men and astronauts.........

Also, I would like to throw this in.

Is this NORMAL Jean Grey or "Phoenix entity" Jean Grey?

If she goes all Dark Phoenix on everybody, SHE wins!

 
At 10:21 AM, Blogger Reese The Law Girl said...

LOL at Kaci. She-ra! LOL!

J: Okay, this is Jean Grey post-Phoenix. Of course, you do have to consider what would happen if the JLA did something stupid like kill Scott. Then, maybe Jean will go craaazzy and go Phoenix again?

Okay, but that's too much of a hypo. It's Jean post-Phoenix.

This is like a Green Lantern vs. Silver Surfer fight a few friends of mine used to argue about.

Captain America vs. Batman

Plastic man vs. Elongated man

Eleanore Roosevelt vs. Bat-mite

You could go on for days!

 
At 10:43 AM, Blogger Reese The Law Girl said...

Captain America and Silver Surfer. That seems obvious. ;)

Okay, but you have to pick a team, damnit! Pick one! ;)

 
At 10:51 AM, Blogger KOM said...

I don't know, Reese - sounds like you just gave yourself up as a Marvel girl. Seems like the cards are already stacked against JLA.

 
At 11:32 AM, Blogger Reese The Law Girl said...

KOM: Well, I am a Marvel girl. How did you know? ;)

But, I actually think the Justice League would win this fight. And, surprisingly, I think it all hinges on how much time the X-Men allow Batman to hang around and find a way to beat them.

 
At 12:00 PM, Blogger Jerk Of All Trades 2.0 said...

Two men enter one men leaves!!!!

KOM vs Jerk....

It's a draw.

If I have to pick, I'll go with the theory that Prof. X cannot control J'onn J'onzz, so he gets taken out quickly. Therefore Batmans brains & Supermans brawn wipe the floor with the X-men.

 
At 12:13 PM, Blogger KOM said...

I've got to agree with the consensus here. The "super friends" would win. But the casualties would be many. I imagine Superman standing alone in the street, body parts everywhere, thinking "wtf just happened?"

 
At 12:28 PM, Blogger Reese The Law Girl said...

Another question: If MM takes out Prof. X, who takes out MM?

I'm going to go with a behind the back, energy draining attack from Rogue. Hopefully, she won't go craazzyy.

 
At 12:35 PM, Blogger Jerk Of All Trades 2.0 said...

Would she just get his powers, or would she mutate into some pointy headed martain/rogue thing?

My guess is she just freak out, go into shock kinda thing.

Too many scenarios, too many unanswerable questions.

 
At 1:08 PM, Blogger Reese The Law Girl said...

See, I think she knocks him out. Followed by her craziness. But, once he's knocked out...well...he'd be easy to get rid of.

 
At 1:33 PM, Blogger "Lisa" said...

Jerk we are sooooo in agreement on this one. Reese is a marvel girl to the core but I, a DC girl, brought her out of the dark side and convinced her of the might of the Justice League.
JL would kick those muttie buts in a heart beat. Of course many would die in the process but since it's last man standing I go with the Justice.
