Yeah, I was just wondering if Sups were able to get around the hammer, if his heat vision could penetrate Thor's skin, or if he could freeze Thor with his freeze breath (since Thor is basically immortal, all Sups really has to do in this tournament is incapacitate him).

But I'm leaning toward Thor (much to Freauxzen's surprise I bet). Sups' only chance would be if he can freeze Thor, but I'm thinking that even if he could, Thor would still be able to bring down lightning and free himself.


Qwerty has it right. Thor's weather control trumps any of the cold, and Thor can withstand the Heat Vision without blinking. He can take a Destroyer blast which is far more powerful.

Naaa, I'm not surprised. Shazam is either a big unknown for most, or his powers are "magic" so they're hard to understand. That makes him tough to talk. Superman isn't really. He's just generally overrated. (I'm assuming Shazam would have beat Supes as well.)

Yep, he'd definitely beat Supes. Actually, he has beat Supes. But I actually didn't know that he was both stronger and faster than Supes until I was forced to study him for this tournament. I actually love the concept of his character. A teen/pre-teen that gets such massive powers. I'm kind of surprised that his character never took off like some of the other DC characters.

I hate that we've accepted the full force of Flash's power in this tournament. I never really think of him being that powerful. I mean I've read some of the comics that portrayed him that powerful, but I guess I've always thought of him as just a really fast guy like he's portrayed in most of his comics. I'd love to have been able to move Shazam to the finals. I think a Shazam vs Thor battle would be pretty close since they are both powered by gods, although I guess I'd have to give Thor the slight edge if one of them had to win. But their battle could rage for a long, long time, and they'd both beat each other to a pulp.

While I'm not sure Thor's weather control would effect Supes ice breath (the freeze is made by his breath, and not weather), I don't think that the ice could contain him for long.
