Interesting. I vote Cap. I don't see Gambit, as much as I like the guy, comin out the victor in this one. And the thing about Spidey is he's pretty good at finding a way to win when he's out gunned. He's like Batman in that way. He takes out the Rhino all the time. Then again, Colossus is NO Rhino. He might be too much for web head.

Avengers takes this!

Cap's gonna own the card buster here no doubt.

while the bigger they are the harder they fall --- Spidey takes down the monster.

We've all seen Cap dodge a dozen projectiles at once, and there's no way that Gambit can take a punch from Cap, so it should be a good fight, but Cap should win. Can't wait to see what happens when Gambit tries to charge the shield. You know it will happen.

Spider-man vs Colossus should be a stalemate, until Spidey manages to get Colossus to fall into a volcano or something. Until then, Spidey can't hurt Colossus, and Colossus can't catch Spidey.

You guys are out of your mind if you think Spidey can take Colossonaut.

Seriously? Spidey might be faster, but he still needs to get close to hit him, and even then he can't hurt him.

How in the world could you possibly think Spidey would stand a chance?

Anyway, Steve Mcniven is the best artist in comics today.

Upsets happen everyday, with Gambit getting his own solo run coming up shortly, now might be a good time for an upset.

Spiderman vs Colossus is pointless. Im a big sidey fan and he will probably win but this fight should never happen as for colossus to win spiderman would have to end up in a coma or fans will feel colossus has been played down. This wont happen. Its the same as the stupid batman vs suerman arguement. Superman can never win because if he does Batman would be dead. You're always going to have the weaker character win as their opponent can take more punishment.

In recent issues of T.A.S.M. we've seen spidey finally using his scientific skills to upgrade his bag of tricks when taking on the Sinister Six. I know we've seen Spidey take on juggernaught b4 with hilarious results, until spidey lures juggs into deserted construction site where he manages to drop a half finished skyscraper on juggs. But we arent talking about Cain Marko the big idiot juggernaught anymore, this is Peter Rasputin, a guy who is immensely powerful even without the juggernaught powers, and also not a moron. Spidey is going to have his hands full. Hand to hand cap beats Gambit, Gambit doesnt have the skills to go toe to toe with one of the best fighters in the marvel U, and his explosive blasts will never be powerful enough to get through caps shield, and he knows this, so he will rely on trickery and stealth which will only draw out the inevitable. However, we've seen Death-gambit show up recently in the x-comics, and we know he is struggling to contain his villainous side, if during the cap fight gambit loses that control, we will have a whole new ballgame.

Cap is definitely going to beat Gambit.

I'm not so certain about Spider-Man vs. Colossonaut.

To paraphrase Iron man, "If you think Gambit will loose to Captain America easily then you don't know him very well." He is the X-men's premier close combat fighter if you don't count Wolverine. Heck he teaches the others. He has taken down wolverine in close combat, taken out Colossus with one throw of two charged knives, and defeated freaking Kang The Conquerer. And he dang sure could blow Caps shield to pieces if he got his hands on it. He won't win because Cap is an A lister and Marvel has a movie to promote, but on paper he should.
