"LET'S GET READY TO RUUUMBLLLLLE!"

In the ever-popular catch phrase of one Mr. Buffer; I bring you an article of which YOU, the lovely folks here at CBM.com, get to vote on who you would like to see my personal favorite Green Lantern of time, Hal Jordan, duke it out with.

I’m aware there is a “ComicBook Battleground” fansite for things like this, BUT, I took it upon myself to make up my own article along the same lines. Since it’s such a good idea and I don’t think anyone is going to argue with me that either way this goes, it will surely add up to be a spectacular battle.


This Saturday I will take your picks and flesh out a battle depicting the 2 adversaries in combat, using the best of the best of their abilities to try and overpower the other. I will make it as interesting and plausible as possible. Also, I will leave it open-ended and add a poll after the battle to let everyone vote on who comes out victorious.

Let the VOTING BEGIN!!!!!
So, who would you all like to see battle it out with Hal Jordan. Will it be:

I had to go with Dr Strange on this one. One of my favorite characters ever. His magic is astounding and near limitless. I've always wanted to see the battle between sheer willpower. Since Magics ability rests in the users will, as does the GL ring, that would be one for the ages for sure.

Hey Ion, I think you should check this out....

Don't know why but I can't seem to write new articles, could it be becuase of the updated NET framework on my computer?

I would've gone with you on this one ION, but i'll stick with the DCU and pick the next best thing... Dr Fate!!!

Thanks NOOB. I woke up WAY too late to even be able to touch that article. I'm kicking myself for not having my Google Alerts set up. Oh well, I'll be on top for the remainder of upcoming news, you better believe it.

It's all good SHAMAN BRO, because if it weren't Dr Strange I would have SURELY picked Fate. Also, it seems for the moment, Silver Surfer and Strange are tied for first. This is going to be a spectacular battle, I'm going to have my work cut out for me writing this one up, regardless of who the opponent is....Hmmm, maybe I'll extend voting until Sunday and flesh out the battle specs overnight for a Monday review.

I went with Apocalypse since he kicked Supes ass... and is virtually unstoppable.

Well, with 9 votes it looks like it's going to be Silver Surfer. Hmmmm, got to see how I'm going to flesh that one out. I see NOBODY voted for Jean Grey...Was it because I chose Jean and NOT Phoenix? I think so.

JaxSun, I would love to see that. I think what I may do from now on is do a monthly or so segment involving a battle between Hal and various Marvel and DC characters. NO, just because I am partial to Green Lantern does not mean he will win everytime. Although I think he should, that just gets old too quickly.

Indeed. And I have to retract my earlier post. I actually meant Doomsday, which wasn't even on the list. I obviously confused the two similarly -themed names. Duh.

Although I'm sure, he would give any GL a run for their money and certainly could defeat one.

OK. I'm letting it roll an entire week. Whew, another hectic week puttin' me behind on things, oh well. Like SHAMAN once told me "don't try and hold yourself to deadlines. Do it when you can." thanks man, and I will do just that.

Silver Surfer is still in the lead though, Darkseid is closing in quickly...Interesting

Ut oh, 18 minutes left and Darkseid is in the lead. I think as much as SS might be a fan favorite,Darkseid is going to be the opponent.

Dude, seriously Necro?! Hal Jordan is THE BEST Green Lantern in the 2 billion year history of the Corps. He's freakin' Hal Jordan!!!

Although my avatar is Kyle because it's a badass picture...It's HAL JORDAN! The quintessential Green Lantern. C'mon!

OK, you're entitled to your opinion and whatever, so...It's all good...But really dude...Hal Jordan

Although I do give you cred; you referenced Mustad Man, and I don't believe anyone even knows who that is. I HOPE you actually have heard the song, otherwise I'm just talking out of my ass...Anyway, good reference, even if you don't know who he is.

My brother made a very good choice for who HE would like to see Hal fight; ONSLAUGHT! I thought "man, that would be freakin' AWESOME!" almost ashamed I didn't think of him to put on the list.
