    Default Which MCU / DCEU characters could beat Comic Counterparts?

    So like, live action Carol Danvers vs 616 Carol and so on.

    Who comes to mind?

    I'll be honest, I'm struggling to think of any movie versions that outpower the originals.

    Errrrmmm... man, I am coming up dry over here.

    I think Fox Quicksilver is faster than his comic version.

    But I'm not up to date on comic Pietro.

    I think Halle Berry's Catwoman is more powerful than the comic version.

    Cap is possibly stronger than his 616 version (though not more powerful overall, due to being much slower). I don't know GOTG enough to say where someone like Yondu ranks against himself. King Shark maybe in the DCEU.

    Vision might be. Ant-Man might be. Moon Knight might be.

    Kurse was probably comparable, as is Groot. Possibly even Spidey.

    Flag Smasher was a legit superhuman, as opposed to being ‘close to CBPH’ in the comics, but it’s really a different character.

    And I haven’t watched Quantumania to see how Kang stacks up yet.

    Looks like even 616 Batroc nabs the W in this scenario.

    Pending Guardians 3, Rocket Racoon - without prep anyway - might be a quickdraw?

    That's about where I am too. There may be a few like Fox Quicksilver that could beat what their comic book counterparts used to be in their early days.
    Power with Girl is better.

    This was my first thought, comics Quicksilver's most iconic feat scenes of all time include running circles around Spider-Man, and way more recently showing that a non-speedster guy with precognition couldn't keep up with his body movements, to show off here how reflexes aren't everything.

    As far as I remember Fox Quicksilver was way above all that. It seems to be easier, budget-wise, to keep power levels as showy as possible when it comes to superspeed rather than let's say, planet busting.

    Dark Phoenix Jean (either movie) could beat the 60's-70's comics version of OG Jean Grey.

    It's not MCU or DCEU, but Wade Wilson/Weapon XI/Deadpool from X-Men Origins: Wolverine should get a ten count against comic book Deadpool, more often than not, courtesy of his optic blasts, with teleportation to ensure he plays keep away.

    Titan Titans Go Raven was a powerhouse compared to comic version as she has a GL like black energy manipulation, portal construction, energy blasts, spell casting, etc. I don't recall comic Raven being so versatile but I'm no expert on her.

    whatever Scientists tells us what they believes are the only things that exists in Reality(our world), they treats what US government and mainstream news media said about things like 9/11, CO2 Emissions, and so on as their gospel

    calling Real Life Martial Artists that can break walls "Comic Book Peak Human" is like calling Pre-new52!Cassandra Cain "Shounen Manga character"
