Crossover Battles are a series of near-weekly discussion articles and polls in which two of your favourite characters from different universes clash in an all out battle. Have you ever debated with your friends whether Batman could beat Black Panther or if Green Arrow can outshoot Hawkeye?
Crossover Battles is a place where such arguments can be settled once and for all. The results of each
Battle are posted in the following
Crossover Battles article. The polls last until the results are posted. Whichever character has the most supporters wins. Both comments and the poll are counted.
DEATHSTROKE VS. BOBA FETT RESULTS
WINNER: Deathstroke the Terminator
Click here for the battle
The legend of DC Comics is strong on this site, as Deathstroke beat the reputable intergalactic bounty hunter by a landslide of votes. When two mercenaries with equally high prices on their heads cross paths, it never ends well for both of them. Of course, the same can't be said for Deathstroke, who must be swimming in a pile of cash. It seems that
Jabba the Hutt will have to find himself a new favourite employee.
Now on to this week's contestants...
