ABOUT CROSSOVER BATTLES

CB's are a series of weekly posts in which two different fictional characters from different universes are pitted against each other and YOU vote and discuss who would win in a fight in the comments section below. Whoever has the most supporters wins. The results are posted in the following CB.

CB 2014 first started in early 2014. After a two month mid-year break, CB 2014 is back. This marks the premier of Round 2. In the mid-year finale, Captain America was able to beat Batman (even though it was a somewhat close encounter). This edition of CB mirrors that.

THIS WEEK'S EVENT

Red Hood



Real Name: Jason Todd
First Appearance: Batman #357 (March 1983)
Universe: DC Comics
Arch-Nemesis: The Joker
Bio:

Jason Todd was originally the second Robin, fighting alongside the Dark Knight himself...until that one bad day where The Joker beat him to death with a crow bar. Resurrected years later after Superboy-Prime punched reality, Todd was devastated to find out that The Batman didn't murder Joker for what he did to him. With a new found hatred for both The Batman and Joker, Red Hood mockingly took on one of Joker's older identities and became the anti-hero RED HOOD. Red Hood believes that Batman's no killing policy is inefficient and that you can't stop all crime but you can control it. Red Hood then began taking over Gotham's criminal underworld as their new kingpin, rivaling Black Mask. The Hood also formed an alliance with other anti-heroes who call themselves The Outlaws.

Red Hood is a master fighter/martial artist (trained by The Batman, himself), is known to carry heavy lethal weapons, and is shown to be a master planner, schemer, and leader. Oh, and one other thing: he won't hesitate to kill you if he thinks you deserve it. Period.

VS

The Winter Soldier



Real Name: Bucky Barnes
First Appearance: Captain America Comics #1 (March 1941)
Universe: Marvel
Arch-Nemesis: N/A
Bio:

Bucky Barnes was Captain America's trusted side kick during the WWII era and his good friend. Cap and Bucky fought many threats including HYDRA, Nazi Germany, Red Skull, Arnim Zola, ETC. This was before he mysteriously vanished for decades. In present day, he returned and worked as a brain-washed super soldier called THE WINTER SOLDIER before battling Captain America and being brought back to his senses. He is now usually portrayed as a hero.

Winter Soldier is a skilled soldier, perfect assassin, master martial artist, and is known to carry deadly weapons such as knives and guns. He also has a metal arm which allows that particular arm super strength.

Voting has ended! For the results, go to the dcmarvelrelatedfilms fansite and go to the Elektra VS Shredder fight.

I say Winter Soldier. Jason received training under Batman, but I doubt his training was truly complete at the time of his death. It's not like Dick Grayson who officially graduated from the Robin role. Meanwhile, the experience Bucky gained in the war and during his years as Winter Soldier made him one of the most formidable men alive. I also get the sense that Bucky had more natural talent. Jason is scrappy and that helps him to be an effective anti-hero, but in terms of strength, speed, and skill I'd say Bucky outclasses him.

Jason would give Bucky a hell of a fight but in the end he'd lose. The cybernetic arm is the difference maker here IMO and Jason was never as gifted as Dick (who I think would win if put in Red Hoods place) and even though he's got great weapons i think Winter Soldiers caliber of ordinance is a little heavier than Jasons. And this is coming from a guy who likes Red Hood more as a character.

If were doing a fight based on the way these characters are portrayed in COMIC BOOKS, Jason takes the win. Simply looking at his track-record and who he's fought and defeated is proof enough that he'd knock The Winter Soldier out.

In a striaght brawl I'd have to give it to the Winter Soldier. But these fights are never just straight Brawls. If there was some prep time and discovery with understanding of what he is up against Todd may be able to deal with this enemy enough to either get away or incapacitate him and kill him.

It's a great match up in terms of the forgotten and left behind sidekick category.
