Making a Non-Marvel/DC Comic Book DEATH BATTLE! Season

[@thekrakenexperiment280]

Fun fact: Scrooge McDuck Vs Mr. Krabs actually have a lot more connections than animals who like money. Old, greedy, anthropomorphic men with thick accents whose last name is a reference to their species. They were born into a very poor family with nothing to their name. They had no aspirations in life until they came across their first coin, a moment so impactful that it changed their lives forever, giving them the goal to make as much money as possible. After going on a lifetimes worth of adventures (Scrooge’s treasure hunts and Krab’s time in the Navy), they now run a successful business while mentoring the next generation (the Duck family and Spongebob & Pearl). Also, their most prized possession is their first dime and their main nemesis is a short, green, incompetent villain that runs a rival business (Glomgold and Plankton). They are so similar that Spongebob even referenced this by revealing Krabs has three nephews that solve mysteries together, a clear reference to Huey, Dewey, and Louie. Also, if we include the Ducktales reboot continuity, they both only ever had one child, a very loud girl that exclusively wears pink. Yes I have seen way too much Spongebob and Ducktales.

Scrooge doesn't hold his first dime in that high regard, It was an AMERICAN dime this meant that it was practically worthless in the country he was in.

[@thekrakenexperiment280]

@@jeromelancashire3278 That's what he thought at first, but he was so pissed off at getting scammed that he moved to America just for it to be worth something. And yes, Scrooge's first dime is incredibly important to him. It's his most prized possession that he keeps in a glass case surrounded by advanced security. Magic DeSpell is frequently trying to steal the dime because Scrooge loves it so much that it now contain's magical energy that she need's for a spell.

I actually am hooked to Homelander VS Hancock. Hancock FTW!

[@TheSentientDoor]

11:40 spot on, just add in a sprink toss of "the mask is evil"

[@AntiAnnihilator5000]

Match-ups I think could be interesting: 1) Miyamoto Usagi (Usagi Yojimbo) vs. Samurai Jack - Anthropomorphic rabbit samurai from a decades spanning comic series versus everyone's favorite western cartoon samurai. Both characters surely have interesting feats, so I think this could be a fun one. 1 alt) Billy (Frank Miller's Ronin) vs. Aku (Samurai Jack) - Ronin starts out with a tale about a samurai's conflict with a super-strong demon lord, Agat, before they both reemerge in the future in what went on to be one of the main inspirations to the Samurai Jack cartoon. Aku has a slightly different kit than Agat, but is clearly inspired by the former. I like either match, so take your pick. 2) Marv (Sin City) vs. Oh Dae-Su (Oldboy) - Victims of conspiracies they don't understand whom end up fighting mostly physically against impossible odds with inhuman perseverance. I lack familiarity with the manga Oldboy is based on, so I can't say if the main character of that (whom has a different name) would be better than Oh Dae-Su to work with, but either could do. 3) Johnny C. (Johnny the Homicidal Maniac) vs. Tomie (Junji Ito's Tomie) - I find the source material here for Johnny to be insufferable so I don't know if there's any interesting feats for him, but I think conceptually this is an interesting matchup. Johnny is, as his comic's title states, a complete nutcase who has committed hundreds to thousands of murders. Tomie is something that looks like a girl that drives men insane and makes them want to kills her. The catch with Tomie is that she has extreme regenerative capabilities and will split into multiple (sometimes deformed) Tomies upon her "death". The Tomies hate and fear each other, so she's almost as much of a threat to herself as she is to her opponent. I think it'll probably end definitively in a stomp in favor of Tomie, but it might be fun to see. 4) Stardust (Stardust the Super Wizard) vs. Cthulhu (H.P. Lovecraft) - I'm really just listing this because Stardust is a flying brick with a sense of morality that defies human comprehension and he wields what appears to be toonforce except it's not intended for comedic effect. Read up on him, he's a bizarre juxtaposition of a completely serious character who does completely ridiculous stuff. Also, both of these characters are in the public domain, so this could functionally be an "official" crossover. This match-up itself is not terribly thematic and Cthulhu could be swapped for almost anything else at an absurd power level, but I think it might be interesting to see two stoic and serious characters with ill-defined limits facing off while one of them does wacky toonforce crap but plays it sternly straight. 5) Men in Black (Malibu comics) vs. Ghostbusters (Ghostbusters films) - The Men in Black comics are oft-forgotten, but they launched that franchise. There are a few notable differences between the comics and film versions that lend well to this match happening - A) comics MIB deal with all kinds of paranormal phenomenons, not just extraterrestrial immigration and naturalization; B) Comics MIB kill witnesses to supernatural events; C) Comics MIB tend to use more conventional weaponry than their film counterparts. The way I see it, the Ghostbusters publicly fighting the supernatural would be a thorn in the side of the MIB, so it's natural that they'd go gunning for them. The Ghostbusters would have to fight back in self-defense. Proton packs don't normally get used against human targets, but it seems like they would be sufficiently powerful to be lethal even without needing to cross streams. The match probably isn't too interesting from a feat comparison standpoint as both sides are apparently normal humans (I don't recall if it was ever confirmed that the comics MIB are actually humans), but I think the "story" around it could be a little interesting to see play out.

[@backroomsdbm]

11:40 Pretty accurate, they have the connection that they were just down on their luck nerdy looking guys aswell It's sadly a stomp though, and I do prefer Carnage for Rick Taylor

[@backroomsdbm]

@@jascarnage7chaosofdarkness818 here's the Connections for Carmage vs Rick Taylor Two Absolutely Brutal Characters who got access to a certain entity that they wear (The Terror Mask and The Carnage Symbiote), which both run off of blood (or is his blood in Carnage's case), These entities give them an insane healing factor and allow them to make spikes out of their bodies, and Depending on which Carnage these Entities talk to the wearers The banter would be great as Carnage is just a joy to watch, Rick would just be cracking Under Pressure while also giving into all the violence, while the Terror Mask talks about how he likes Carnage

[@jascarnage7chaosofdarkness818]

@@backroomsdbm Hmmmm...I definitely see nice animation and banter potential here. Having two brutal fighters bonded to the source of their multitude of abilities sounds like a creative connection. The constant healing and morphing parts of their bodies into weapons also has a lot to offer. If we're talking about 616 Carnage (Main One), the Symbiote doesn't talk to him as they use singular pronouns to highlight how perfect their bloodbond is as they see themselves as a singular entity. If anything, that contrast can make this MU even more compelling. Carnage's banter is a joy to watch, I agree. I'll consider this MU then. I like the potential here, and I've heard great things about Rick Taylor and Splatterhouse as a whole. I'll have to look into it.

[@jeromelancashire3278]

1:47 I always they would be fighting because of the plane incident and Homelander would talk about how he tried to save them only for Hancock to be like, "No, No, that's not what happened," this pisses of Homelander who tries to threaten Hancock only for him to completely ignore him this eventually annoys Homelander so much he throws the first punch,

[@necryo_0]

I probably stand alone in this match up, mostly because one of the characters is super obscure but I'd like Scarlet vs Ryuuko (I'm the grim reaper). Both look edgy but really aren't, they both have some trauma in their past that they can't fully remember (Scarlet being why she went to hell and Ryuuko's dad). They both have powers from entities other worldy (Scarlet having a demon and Ryuukos life fibers) and turn into violent monsters when they lose their temper. They are also connected in some way to the big bad of they're respective universes (The Devil and ryuukos mom that I didn't forget the name of). The only problem with this is ITGR isn't finished yet, and it's kinda a stomp in ryuukos favor. But I'd love it if this happened when the series finishes up.

[@Volvagia1927]

Disagree with your 3rd pick. For an "all anime season"? Yes. But for a Non-Marvel/DC Western Comics Season? Sara Pezzini vs. Masane Amaha. Is that a bit of a stomp fight? Probably, with Masane winning. But Masane is RELATED to a Western Comics property without BEING a Western Comics character, so it can't be her and another anime character.

Another connection between The Mask and Rick Taylor is that the hosts of the masks (Rick and Stanley) are portrayed as total wimp losers. Also both masks have a differing sense of humor.

[@merchantziro4285]

Alright this was a great hypothetical season with a few matchups I'd like to see... So here are 2 ideas of my own that could replace the filler MUs. I say 2 because the first one fits the rules the other is leaning on it but still an honorable mention *Addison Brody vs Jacket (Tomboy vs Hotline Miami)* Both are anti-hero protagonists known for their choice in wearing animal masks who have lost important figures close to them (most notably their best friend and girlfriend/boyfriend) and seeked revenge against the ones responsible, killing anyone who got in their way to do so. Both are also somewhat guided by hallucinations of a figure they know (Richard for Jacket & Princess Cheery Cherry and later on Lady Lemon Lorraine for Addison). *Fleetway Super Sonic (Sonic the Comic) vs Dark MegaMan.EXE (Mega Man Battle Network/NT Warrior)* Two incredibly powerful and psychotic dark corrupted sides of alternate continuity versions of the blue video game heroes, considered even the strongest besides the Archie versions of them. Both have struggled to deal with these dark sides of themselves and have even fought against them when they were separated from themselves. Honestly if we get MegaMan.EXE to return at all, I would prefer it as DarkMega as that would be a lot more interesting to talk about.

[@Azure-Flame-Bee]

My fav non Marvel/DC comic matchup is def Addison Brody VS Brendon Breyer (Tomboy VS Brightburn)

[@o0bookwyrmknight0o]

Another match up for Hellboy (Alucard would be a good match up for sure!) would be Rin Okumura! Two sons of the Devil, raised by a loving monster hunting father and deciding that the outcomes of their birth do not determine who they are.

Here's a mu that could technically work for this that I made a while back: Ninja Brian vs Dr. McNinja (Ninja Sex Party vs The Adventures of Dr. McNinja) Connections: Both ninjas that have other jobs outside on ninja work (Brian is a musician and Dr. McNinja is a doctor) who often go on abnormal journeys with a teammate that is also just as bizarre (Danny Sexbang and Gordito Delgado). Both have anger issues and both have different views with human lives (Brian kills almost everyone and McNinja tries to save lives as a doctor) and both are considered the best in their fields. They both have a monster enemy (Manticor and Dracula), and have enemies that are members of an anarchy (The Dick Elders in 6969 and both King Radical and Sparklelord). It's stupid but it's a pretty decent matchup

[@seriousspikesam7770]

16 episodes without Garfield, Snoopy or The Phantom (Mr. Walker)? A tip of a hat to you. Other possible comic battles could involve the likes of Tintin, Asterix and/or Obelix and Lucky Luke. Let me know if there are any other FTL comic gunslingers out there. I can only think of Cocco Bill out of the blue. I am still vouching for Garfield vs Snoopy as a less serious battle. Garfield would probably win, but they are the top 2 comic animals out there (that aren't owned by Disney.) Mr. Walker could have a neat fight with someone, but I'd hate to see him fight Batman of all people. Someone suggested to me Nite Guy as a potential opponent, but I have zero knowledge about them. Also, there are some Tarzan books/comics out there that could give him a chance against Walker, but considering he can give Deadshot a run with his accuracy I don't think it would be a fair fight. Unless we stick to his "no killing with the guns rule" (which he has broken before) or only have him disarm Tarzan from his weapons... and even then Phantom could probably KO him with a couple punches. Edit: Maybe we could add Moomins to the mix... I haven't really tried to powerscale them, but it would be *wild* to have them in a fight. Fighting Moomins aside.

[@TrashmanCZ]

Phantom vs Shadow would be great match. Both are old pulp heroes. Moomins don´t do anything. There are some characters that can bring winter to the countryside or grant wishes but main cast never did anything tha could be powerscaled. But I also didn´t see Moomins in a long time.

[@seriousspikesam7770]

@@TrashmanCZ The Silver Shroud, eh? Seeing how I just broke into his manor (and started a Silent Hill mod) I might have to do some research. I'm a little worried about invisibility and psychic abilities (albeit in limited quality) but I'd also not be surprised if The Phantom hadn't encountered something similar in his years. Not to mention he's kinda the master of stealth himself. I agree that it's difficult to come with direct stats for the main Moomins. The best instances I can recall come from Snuffkin jumping off an airship (seemingly without a parachute) and Snork surviving an explosion that destroyed his workshop and sent him flying in the air. So we're talking about maybe building level Moomins at best. Granted, there are far better feats performed by other characters (Groke once put out a forest fire by walking into it, Ice Queen froze Little My just by looking at her) but there's little way to use those for direct scaling. *Maybe* you could find something with the shooting star or other things, but Moomins isn't exactly the most destructive of characters.

[@helious5056]

Okay I was going to suggest several good non DC versus Marvel comic matchups but seeing as the qualifier for your video is at least one character in The matchup has to be a Comic character I'm going to suggest my favorite matchup which is John Egbert (Homestuck) vs Elliot (Elliot goes to school/Gmod) Near unkillable gooberish teen dudes who are the main protagonists who have big hearts, smart mouths and meta abilities (John and his power of retcon and Elliot and how he's created the stories he appears in on several occasions) that come from cult classic web series that are a bit outlandish and consistently reference pop culture as well as Internet culture and in fact have heavily influenced the internet culture, both characters series started in 2009 and ended in the mid-2010s although both were eventually continued in some shape or form by fans (Homestuck 2 for John and various shorts and guest appearances for Elliot) and this series is the third of the authors more comedic web based work and loosely shares a continuity with the other two (for John and Homestuck this is Bard quest and problem sleuth and for Elliot and Elliot goes to school this is Gmod brawl and moments with heavy) and both began the series in their bedroom in the morning with them even both being seen in one story or another waking up to start their day (for the most part this is how every episode of Elliot goes to school begins with Elliot waking up with the first episode of the series even showing Elliot's morning routine but for John and Homestuck in the original comic he's not seen waking up and the story just begins in John's room but later on in paradox space the first paradox space comic shows John waking up and his morning routine) both despite their gooberish nature tend to be the voice of reason and leader of their respective groups of crazy friends which consists of the technology adept friend with weird overpowered abilities that they use to save our main guy at one point, the somewhat foul-mouthed rival/best friend who has a way with clever insults and taking control of conversations, the weird one who may or may not be in League with Eldritch powers and the empathetic outlier who has occasional rage driven outbursts But ultimately does care about his friends and are heavily associated with the color red (these characters being xavior and Jade, Brandon and Dave, Rose and Elmer and Jimbo and karkat) and as such are surprisingly skilled despite their young age and occasionally klutzy behavior, both come from worlds that follow video game logic and have continuities that are incredibly convoluted and confusing with loads of characters and conflicting timelines and of these characters include such individuals as a ruthless and vicious dictator/dictator like who takes pleasure in pain and misery and has an army at their disposal But ultimately answers to a higher power, caring single parents of the protagonist, notable democratic presidents and so many more (in order these characters are the condescension and a Mr higglesworth, John's dad and Elliott's mom and Barack Obama and Bill Clinton) Both in some way scale to evil God like entities with immense power that have endangered entire planes of reality and were released from some sort of powerful container and have a species name that derives from mythology (these being Lord English and his sarcophagus and him being a cherub and spunky the imp and Elliot's fun box and him being a imp) Both unintentionally cause massive amounts of chaos and destruction (John with him playing sperb and causing the end of the world and Elliot both with his daily commute to school and creating the Elliot box which nearly destroyed a small plain of reality) both have hobbies that everybody around them doesn't take seriously (John and his gags and jokes and Elliot with his art), Both have Christmas specials that although not primarily created by the original creators of John and Elliot's respective series do have there blessings and light involvement (secret sufferer for John and Homestuck and merry Christmas Elliot for Elliot and Elliot goes to school) both grow up and become rather shlubish and are shown to be far more serious opposed to their younger and more jovial selves (for John this is all contained within the candy timeline of Homestuck 2 but for Elliot this includes both his appearances in Elliot is late for work and the series The eagle and the Apple) Despite them both being nearly unkillable they have both died on several occasions but through various time shenanigans and sheer resilience have some how come back from the dead, basically there are unkillable by any traditional means and when they are killed by traditional means it just means they're going to come back somehow someway whether that be through regeneration or retconning their own death But it's not just the connections that make me adore this matchup but also the differences that add a bit of spice to it like John is a lot stronger but Elliot is a lot faster, John coming from a fairly serious sci-fi epic while Elliot comes from a not so serious toon like teen comedy, John having the ability to fly and preferring to do that to get the places while Elliot has a lot of skill when it comes to pretty much any vehicle and tends to use those to get places, John favoring melee weaponry while Elliot prefers projectiles, John's metability basically being to rewrite while Elliot's is to write, John is a lot more genuine and goofy well Elliot is a lot more dry and sarcastic and so on And the fight could go a little like this This fight is Very back and fourth The starting state is both of their base forms, at this point Elliot Far out classes John in almost every category which of course means John has to progress to His second state which is God tier, at this point in the fight John would start to get the upper hand due to how unexpected the power increase and new ability to fly, ragdolling Elliot (pun intended), which would then Force Elliot into his second state, agent eagle from the Gmod miniseries eagle and the Apple, a series where Elliot is a highly skilled and highly lethal secret agent, in the state Elliot would start to blitz John due to the speed difference and of course send him flying with his incredible arsenal that seemingly has come out of nowhere, this would make John question how Elliot has access to all these weapons, then John would notice a camera in the sky through which Elliot is looking at John, via Elliot's metapowers he is taking a backseat and has been animating himself being a badass and beating up John through up to this point of the fight, but now that John knows what's up he can use his own meta powers to drag Elliot back to the fight proper, we're both with progress to the final state John would do his windy thing creating a massive and amazingly powerful tornado this would catch Elliot off guard of course and damper his speed advantage but after stabilizing himself with a physics gun and a floating desk, Elliot would unleash his killer app, his fun box which contains the totality of power of his own imagination releasing the chaotic and hectic things and entities from his mind most notably various versions of notable video game characters, spunky the imp and a superpowered version of the Moon from Majora's mask, this begins the final act of their fight setting a stage full of hurricanes and fun The two would start clashing with Elliot pulling out the the electric air guitar seen at the end of team fabulous 2 and use it as a melee weapon against John's hammer, the two's clashing would eventually cause a huge explosion sending all the entities from Elliot's fun box flying and disbanding the hurricane, leaving to two, battered and bruised in the middle of a crater, the two get up, Elliot helps John up, asks if he wants to come over to play some assassin's Creed and both hear the voices of the respective friend groups from opposite sides of the crater I honestly do think this matchup has a lot going for it and maybe the best matchup for either opponent due to how the two compare and contrast in a lot of interesting and fun ways that could make for a good fight, good banter and even a good soundtrack to said fight Track name: HURRICANE OF FUN

Couldn't use Savanti Romero or Onslaught for Enerjack, so here's this) Mob vs. Ness (Same as Saitama's matchup) Sabrina vs. Akko (I'd honestly would like to see this) Scrooge McDuck vs. Grunkle Stan (My perfered for Scrooge) Big Guy and Rusty vs. Edward and Alphonse Eleric (Couldn't use Hiro and Baymax, which is better, so here's this, Big Guy and Rusty were from a comic from Frank Miller, so they count) and similar to you, I'd also have the following Robocop vs. Judge Dredd Hellboy vs. Nero or Alucard Undertaker vs. The Crow and Bluto vs. Pete

One fight I would like to throw out is Rick Grimes vs John Marston (Walking Dead/Image Comics vs Red Dead/Rockstar Games) I really love the connections and parallels between the two. Both being cowboys who are the last of their kind (humanity and cowboys) who have to fight for their lives of both their own and their family against both the living dead (if you count the undead nightmare) and other groups of people who aren't far off from them. With Rick being a cop who turns in to an outlaw while John being an outlaw that turns in to a government guinea pig. Red Dead 1 and 2 are some of my favorite games of all time and I liked the seasons and comics of the walking dead that I've experienced. The only bad thing being is that John kinda stomps Rick (give and take their weapons) but you can have Rick steal some of John's equipment during the match as a way to make things seem more fair.

My favorite DC vs Non-Marvel matchup is Doomsday vs SCP 682. Two unkillabe abominations who hate humanity. Honestly this would make an excellent season finale. 682 wins because he’s way smarter and older than Doomsday, so he can find a way to kill Doomsday.

I didn't even know Iron Maiden's mascot even had enough lore for a versus Matchup and I don't even know who Evil Ernie is. But let me say that I'm now very intrigued...

[@renamon5658]

I just wish that dc vs non marvel would not be a complete stomps

[@TheObicobiHD]

V vs Rorschach would be cool too. Love the watchmen comics ☺️ Would be very interesting

[@tario0069]

I actually think Fu from no more heroes is better for boros it has the same connections as battle beast and then some. Fu also has more abilities than battle beast so it has more animation potential.

[@jamesferris869]

You should definitely do more season creatings. I really enjoyed them

[@chricramo9999]

Hancock Vs Homelander is the latter's best matchup, and a very original and potentially emotional one. I do also prefer Tighten for Homelander as an adversary

[@holty1314]

20:04 it’s hilarious that he doesn’t know that they crossed over 😂

[@Diabetic64]

For Homelander vs Hancock I'd love a scene like from Invincible where Homelander is driving Hancock through a subway train, Hancock accidentally killing the people inside

[@pedrohlm9734]

This guy is going to make all kinds of videos except the review of all the Death Battles from Godzilla/Power Rangers right?

[@gabrielneri2820]

It seems like it... And when where only 4 left...

[@dankthefranktank1926]

The mask should fight Beetlejuice, Freakazoid, or Slapstick if he were to return.

[@gameuniverse5973]

It should be freakazoid in my option

[@AlWikowonkavitz]

Homelander VS Hancock, Scrooge McDuck VS Mr. Krabs, RoboCop VS Judge Dredd, Bluto VS Pete, and Eddie VS Ernie are my favorites on here. I might add Garfield VS Snoopy or Heathcliff, Dick Tracy VS Sherlock Holmes (or something, I dunno), Scott Pilgrim VS Travis Touchdown or someone, the MAD Magazine Spies VS Itchy & Scratchy, Sam & Max VS Duckman & Cornfed, Vampirella VS Lady Death [sure]…I don’t have a match for them, but Big Guy & Rusty would also be cool.

[@AlWikowonkavitz]

The Rocketeer, as well, is one I ain’t got a match for.

[@lucariboi1960]

I really hope death battle uses more non-marvel and dc comic characters

[@StripeTheSquid]

My favorite of these are Scrooge vs Krabs and Pete vs Bluto because I’m a filthy cartoon loving cringy meme man

[@oblivion715]

Poison Ocean is my favorite Axe Cop moment.

[@apex2000]

RoboCop actually was inspired in part by judge dredd. Wasn't a secret, some early concept sketches for RoboCop actually resembles Dredd's suit way more.

[@maxstrike3022]

I actually loved Hancock and the lore behind his race.

[@azureblizzard721]

> Not Homelander VS Tighten W

[@Adventist1997]

Death Battle needs to get on all of these that you've made, and MAYBE I'll start liking their channel again. 😂

[@luukzilla1519]

1:13 Adam (Hazbin Hotel) and Albert Wesker (Resident Evil) could also be good opponents for Homelander

[@chricramo9999]

While Inferno Cop Vs Axe Cop is very interesting and potentially very hilarious, I've got an even more hilarious and potentially crazier matchup. That is Axe Cop Vs Bobobo-Bobobo. They are both two of the most insanely broken characters in fiction, their abilities and powers practically limitless and unbound by reason and rationality, both are able to break the 4th wall and so, so, SO much more insane stuff they can do! I don't know but that's my favorite Axe Cop matchup! What do you think?

[@ASR-Ansori]

There are a few other heavy metal mascots that have a decent amount of material for versus matches, like Murray from Dio or (especially) The Guy from Disturbed.

[@GizmoHibiki]

Wouldn't Sterling Archer vs Brock Samson be a better Death Battle match up? Both come from secret organizations, both are inspired by old media, both have their preference of weapons, both love their hair and have survived moments in their field that should have killed everyone else.

[@o0bookwyrmknight0o]

That would be a good match up! I also would like to see some reference/gag to Solid Snake vs Sam Fisher of Archer right behind Samson with Archer going “You’re goo-“ but is immediately cut off with Brock attacking him with Archer going “What the hell?! I was trying to compliment you, idiot!”

[@StripeTheSquid]

That would make more sense, but this is a video about comic characters, and neither Archer or Brock are comic characters like Eggsy is.

[@Volvagia1927]

If you want to do another two of these? An entire season where at least one character is from Print Literature and an entire season where at least one character is from, non Power-Rangers, Live-Action TV.

[@TheObicobiHD]

Spawn vs the Saint of Killers would be sick! Spawn series/image comics and Preacher are both awesome. Love both. Want to see this fight 🔥🔥👏💜

[@redlikebones]

i know next to nothing about inferno cop but him being a low budge web series character who never changes his pose makes me think his best opponent would be khonjin from khonjin house

[@heatherrausch6085]

I would only prefer Homelander vs Hancock if Hancock won, but mostly because I don't want to see a Will Smith character die lol

[@gameuniverse5973]

Finally someone else mentions boros vs battlebeast and i swear Fu better not take that spot for that fight with boros

[@thomasthecoolkid7228]

Something I think could be really fun (especially since it would absolutely never happen) is some matchups that concern either fanmade _characters_ or fanmade _versions_ of characters. There's, like... a bajillion Holo-Chronicles matchups that I could probably think of, but a matchup that's not related to that that I can't get my mind off of is... Black Suit Spider-Man VS Evil Boyfriend (Friday Night Funkin': Corruption) Both are characters that were originally heroic, but became more antagonistic - even if not outright villainous for Peter - due to the influence of some kind of black substance (the Venom symbiote for Peter, the corruption for Boyfriend). They're both commonly depicted with tendrils and such, with Ultimate Spider-Man in Shattered Dimensions (who has the Black Suit there) using them a lot, _especially_ in his rage mode, and Evil Boyfriend commonly being depicted with either tentacles or extendable limbs ala... well, Venom. They even both break out of the weird black thing's hold on them through some type of sound, with Peter tearing the symbiote off of him while it's being rekt by church bells and Boyfriend breaking out of the corruption through an internal rock duet with Soul Boyfriend, but that's not entirely important for this match, since they'll still be using this crap. Even aside from the similarities in plot, there is a lot of potential. Like, I imagine Peter just walking by when his Spider Sense suddenly starts going _ballistic_ (and yes, the Whitty reference is 100% intentional). He goes where it points to out of curiosity and briefly catches a glimpse of Evil Boyfriend corrupting somebody, probably by holding them up by the neck. He then hides off, quickly equips the symbiote suit, and goes back in to try and fight him, all the while suffering continous headaches simply due to being in Evil Boyfriend's presence and the Spider Sense not liking it at all. Maybe Evil Boyfriend starts getting some of his own, as he continues to fight and get more frustrated, which awakens Soul Boyfriend and causes him to fight back from the inside. And this isn't even getting into the possibilities of what could possibly happen if he tried to corrupt the symbiote.

[@Volvagia1927]

As far as Fanmade versions of characters go? How well would you think Helluva Wizard Harry Potter vs. Hell's Loud Lincoln Loud works?

[@thomasthecoolkid7228]

@@Volvagia1927 So... problem about that... _I don't know shit about either of those_

[@Volvagia1927]

​@@thomasthecoolkid7228 Okay. Both are Helluva Boss crossovers, both with the same pair in adoptive parent role (Moxxie and Millie), but the main difference/contrast is that version of Harry Potter has become a dragon demon (at least slightly enhanced physical strength and fire breath, scaled to Valentino), meanwhile that version of Lincoln...is magically adept enough to put one of the Seven Deadly Sins in a nightmare state. So, yeah.

[@thomasthecoolkid7228]

@@Volvagia1927 ...why does that feel like a stomp in Lincoln's favor? Oh wait, it's cuz the Deadly Sins are supposed to be ridiculously powerful.

[@jeromelancashire3278]

24:12 Did you forget about The Vengeful One, The Dark Messiah, WHAT HAVE YOU BECOME?

[@MinecraftWorld1954]

Prior to this, I was kinda upset that it wasn't Homelander vs Tighten, but now, I want Homelander vs Tighten, Homelander vs All Might, and Homelander vs Handcock. Also, what’s the problem with Homelander vs Brightburn? I’m not a supporter of that matchup, I’m just curious. Homelander really needs to return Edit: He did and the matchup is not good… but DAMN WAS THAT EPISODE AWESOME!!!

[@Z3r0_c00l-e8y]

Eh. I think the match up for Rick Taylor would be better fit for Luther Strode. Quick summary: Luther Strode is the protagonist for the comic series The Strange Talent of Luther Strode. He's a nerdy and scrawny teen who reads a Charles Atlas book and gains superhuman powers. Powers that are only meant to kill, in fact kill in the most brutal and efficient ways imaginable, as well as gain superhuman strength, super human reflexes, a healing factor, and battle precog. Basically, two schluby guys given powers and strength only suited to committing horrific violence. Both are basically what if a slasher villain was the hero. Both are from extremely violent and gory source material. Both fight against legions of supernatural beings. Both of them even have a girlfriend caught up in the middle of it all. And both have an iconic mask, even though only Rick's is otherworldly. SPOILERS for Luther's comic. Turns out this self help book is a guide to gaining strength through killing. Written by the biblical Cain, this text has given infamous killers throughout history power over humanity (most notably Jack The Ripper and Miyamoto Musashi). This religion dedicated to praising murder and death serves as the main antagonist to Luther and his girlfriend Petra. Naturally it ends with Luther killing Cain. As in the man who invented murder, hate crime, and familicide in one go. The strongest possible killer in their verse. However he did need outside assistance from Petra and the biblical Delilah to put him down. He was holding back for most of the fight due to wanting to see if he could convince Cain to turn back from his murderous ways (long story short, Luther reevaluates using horrific violence to solve the world's problems). Still, I think these two characters are similar power wise and are close enough to not have a stomp either way. Yes including Rick's super forms he gets in his games.

[@soulslvr9562]

Ok scrooge vs mr krabs would be insane. If Armor abs krabs doesnt come walking in with his ghost busting outfit i will riot xD

Marvel/DC Vs Non Marvel/DC. Video game characters season. Movie/TV characters season.

[@blametheghost]

Ohhhh, Hellboy vs Nero I recently finished DMC 5 so I know a lot more about Nero than ever before so I think that is an amazing matchup Question is will Nero have access to his devil breakers? Edit: episode 9 would be fantastic Editedit: episode 12 would also be fantastic

[@gameuniverse5973]

Base Nero would destroy Hellboy probably

A monster season. 16 episodes of the greatest monsters in Mythology. For zombies: Nemesis T type vs Jason Voorhees Skeletons can be Brook vs Sans

[@gelitonman1753]

I'm a bit sad that The Tick wasn't in this, but I also understand that finding the best matchup for him is weird and hard and he might be to obscure to be considered in the main stream media for you, or anyone, to think about first

[@seanmiller4170]

I always kind wanted him to fight Saitama...oh well

[@gelitonman1753]

@@seanmiller4170 I think Captain Underpants is better for Tick, cuz their banter would be funnier and they bounce off each other (battle-wise)

Here’s an idea: a book based season. Not Comic Books or Graphic Novels, but books (stuff like Dune, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Project Nemesis, etc). I think it could be interesting.

[@baronkarza2939]

I got a few Scud the disposable assassin vs Atomic robo and Wall might vs Barack Panther

Some death battles I think would be cool, not in any particular order: Caster (Fate/Stay Night) vs Delilah Briarwood (Critical role) Azula (Avatar) vs Asajj Ventress (Star Wars) Jin (Xenoblade chronicles 2) vs Hitsugaya (Bleach) Keyleth (Critical Role) vs Kyoshi (Avatar) Jack Cooper (Titanfall) vs Mando (the Mandalorian) Mythra (Xenoblade chronicles 2) vs Saber (Fate/Stay Night) Lelouch (Code Geass) vs Artemis Fowl (Artemis fowl) Thoughts, anyone?

The Guy from Disturbed is the only other band mascot that comes to mind that has any feats

I don’t mind marvel vs dc matchups mainly due to size amount of characters in those universe and since taskmaster vs deathstroke is in my top 3 most wanted matched ups I can’t really complain P.S if you want to know my other 2 most wanted they are Pit vs Kratos and Thor vs Hercules from the original myths

[@nathanielgrenier9503]

This is great, perhaps an anime death battle season for a future video?

[@carljameson3082]

I had an idea for a challenge a bit ago and I think it could be fun to see your take on it: can you make a season consisting entirely of same franchise fights and still make it somewhat interesting? The only rules are that you can only use each series once and you only get one battle royale episode. I only got about 5 matchups in before giving up

[@andrewpenny4676]

Technically archer and eggsy have fought in a commercial.

I know this won't be on the list, but Please do Terror Tiger v.s Terror T. It has a lot of connections, mostly the powers, appearance, and the same name, but honestly the real reason I want it is so I could see one of my characters rip that knock-off to shreds.

The Mask vs Rick Taylor has the following connections: Pathetic, wimpy men granted supernatural abilities by a magic mask with a far more crude and selfish personality.
