Powers and abilities

Count Nefaria was a normal human until subjected to a process perfected by one of Baron Heinrich Zemo's scientists Dr. Kenneth Sturdy which granted him the combined powers of the villains the Living Laser (energy projection), Power Man (strength), and Whirlwind (speed), amplified a hundredfold.[volume & issue needed] Because of this, Nefaria is one of the physically strongest known humans in the Marvel Universe. He has toppled a 40-story building with little effort, withstood a blow from Wonder Man without flinching,[volume & issue needed] fought an enraged Thor to a standstill with no apparent damage from strikes of his hammer, even stopping it with his bare hand, and has withstood simultaneous attacks by multiple teams of Avengers at once and laughed it off.


The character then aged until his body evolved,[volume & issue needed] and eventually shifted to an ionic form, able to create ionic constructs and manipulate other ionic beings. As such, Nefaria is now effectively immortal, and virtually indestructible. He also has the power of flight when before he could only leap great distances. He once showcased a new power allowing him to surround his opponents in ionic energy and move them wherever telekinetically. Although it is possible to deplete Nefaria's ionic energy in combat by forcing him to expend energy faster than his body can replenish it, Giant-Man has calculated that it would take three weeks of constant combat - without even giving Nefaria time to pause for breath - for even the combined forces of the Avengers and the Thunderbolts to deplete Nefaria's ionic energy reserves completely in that manner.[volume & issue needed] However, Madame Masque has developed a weapon that disrupts Nefaria's ionic energy.

Fred




Skills and abilities: Military combat training



Powers: After exposure to experimental nano-technology he was granted superhuman strength, durability and endurance far beyond a normal man. His strength is comparable to Juggernaut making him able to lift about 100 tons. His body can also generate devastating concussive force blasts from his hands and eyes. These blasts are as powerful as the very highest form that Iron Man can generate. He is essentially a Black superman easily able to take on and defeat Iron Man, Juggernaut and the Avengers all at once and defeat them.

Note- this is alternate universe and the avenger team is different and even the Juggernaut called j2 that fred fought is weaker then the original.

Anyway here is the avenger team for this alternate universe.
Ant-Man, J2, Mainframe, Jim Rhodes, Scarlet Witch, Stinger, Spider-Girl.

Meteor Man (comics)


Meteor Man is a comic book spin-off of the 1993 MGM film The Meteor Man. Marvel Comics produced a 6-issue limited series written by Bert B Hubbard and Dwight D Coye. Robert Walker (Illustrator), Jon Holdredge (Illustrator) where Meteor Man met Spider-Man and Night Thrasher. The fictional superhero was created by director/actor/writer, Robert Townsend.

Bill Cosby was in that movie! That image bought back some fun memories until I remembered that. My problem with Meteor Man was that it was too small in scope. He should have had the neighborhood cleaned up in a heartbeat and moved on to something bigger. It suffers from what a lot of black superheroes suffer from, something I call "hood obsession". Strangely black heroes born outside the USA (Blade, Black Panther, Bishop, etc) tend not to suffer from this.

"An S-Class Superhuman": Marvel's Strongest Hero Finally Gets an Official Power Level

The role of Marvel's strongest hero is always up for debate, but now the publisher has named one S-Class hero the equal of Sentry and the Hulk.

Marvel has revealed the official power level of Taegukgi - South Korea's answer to Superman, and the leader of Tiger Division - as he goes head-to-head with Moon Knight. But with so much raw power at his disposal, the question isn't how Marc Spector can win their Contest of Chaos fight, but how he can survive it. Marvel's Contest of Chaos event stretches across its 2023 annuals, with heroes such as Wolverine, Spider-Man, Storm, and Iron Man facing off in pitched battles - their usual inhibitions stripped away by Agatha Harkness' magic. However, even in this clash of the titans, Moon Knight has drawn the short straw in going up against Taegukgi.
In a preview of Jed MacKay, Creees Lee, Arif Prianto, and Cory Petit's Moon Knight Annual 2023, Agatha engineers the title bout between Marc Spector's nocturnal vigilante and Tae-Won Oh's god-level superhuman. Indeed, Marvel uses the opportunity to brand Taegukgi an "S-Class superhuman," confirming his place in the highest tier of Marvel power. MacKay and Joey Vazquez's 2021 Black Cat Annual #1 hinted that Taegukgi is on par with the Sentry, possessing an almost infinite level of physical strength, however this was presented as speculation on the part of Felicia Hardy. Here, however, the powerful sorcerer Agatha Harkness speaks with far more authority, and places Taegukgi in Marvel's highest strength range, alongside Blue Marvel and the Sentry - each of who have beaten the Hulk unconscious in fair fights.

Taegukgi Joins Sentry and the Hulk as an S-Class Superhuman

A former criminal, Taegukgi was empowered by the Asgardian artifact known as the Psylot Gem, gaining similar powers to DC's Superman, including flight, superstrength, enhanced durability, destructive eye-beams, and slow-aging. Taegukgi responded to his new power by becoming a true hero, and committing himself to saving all those who need his help. Acting as the leader and conscience of South Korea's Tiger Division team, he's a powerhouse with very few equals and no betters - certainly not Moon Knight.
How Can Moon Knight Survive Fighting Taegukgi?
So far in the Contest of Chaos, Agatha has used her magic to pit hero against hero, offering some surprisingly definitive victories. Human Torch has taken on Ghost Rider and Iron Man has taken on Storm, with Captain Marvel vs Cyclops, Venom vs Deadpool, and Spider-Gwen vs Taegukgi's teammate White Fox still to come, culminating in Avengers Annual #1 on September 27. While the winners are being whisked away by Agatha, the losers are left in the dust, and yet it's still not clear why Agatha needs the victors, or why she's choosing them through one-on-one bouts. Easily the most head-scratching match-up, Moon Knight vs Taegukgi is no contest in terms of strength, however the Contest of Chaos has no rules of conduct, suggesting there may be some way for Moon Knight to triumph. The preview ends with the two entering a Chaos Zone, with glowing purple rocks which may turn out to be Taegukgi's version of Kryptonite.
A new entry to Marvel canon - only debuting in 2021 - Taegukgi has yet to become as famous among fans as Hulk or the Sentry, but Marvel has repeatedly made efforts to hammer home just how powerful he is. Moon Knight Annual 2023 continues that trend, officially branding Taegukgi an S-Class hero, and prompting readers to wonder what Marc Spector could possibly do to walk away from their clash unscathed.
