This week's Beat Galactus Quiz came down to who had the fastest internet connection at their school! It came down to Zack1991 and THEHAWK, both of which are past winners. But ultimately, THEHAWK came out on top and is the proud new owner of a Thor DVD signed by Chris Hemsworth! Congrats to HAWK!

Now, let's take a look the questions for the day. Now, admittedly, these were not the toughest questions I've put together, but it allowed for more people to participate and get involved. We didn't have too many discrepancies this go-round either, which was nice for me! These questions are in no particular order and I will make note of any discussions that took place during the quiz. Take a look and discuss below!

Question 1- What is the full name of Night Owl’s ship in Watchmen?
Answer- Archimedes

Question 2- Who is the President of the U.S. in the Watchmen story line?
Answer- Richard Nixon

Question 3- What country is Banshee from?
Answer- Ireland

Question 4- What powers does Moira McTaggert possess?
Answer- None

Question 5- What popular X-Men team-up “move” is being described here: Colossus hurls Wolverine as hard as he can towards an unlucky target.
Answer- Fastball Special

Answer- Alfred Molina

Question 7- What was Bruce Campbell’s cameo in Spider-Man 3?
Answer- Maitre d’/Waiter

Question 8- How many miles can the Hulk cover in a single leap?
Answer- 3
*This question had a small discussion. Being that this distance depends on the creative time who is doing the writing, I took an average of the most common distances. Generally, when you look at the answers for this question, you will find that 3 is the most common.

Question 9- What religious faith does DareDevil/Matt Murdock associate with?
Answer- Roman Catholic

Question 10- How does Kingpin “sign” his murders in the film DareDevil?
Answer- Leaves a red rose

Question 17- What character does Morgan Freeman portray in Christopher Nolan’s Batman films?
Answer- Lucious Fox

Question 18- In Batman Begins, Bruce Wayne obtains a full body survival suit. What fabric is the suit made of?
Answer- Nomex
*The most common answer I received for this question was Kevlar. Nomex is the main fabric for the suit, which has kevlar woven into it for extra durability.

Question 19- What color represents Rage in the emotional spectrum in the DC Universe?
Answer -Red

Question 20- Richard Swift is better known as what Flash rogue?
Answer- The Shade
*Yes, The Flash does have a rogue.

There you have it! I hope everyone had fun. The Beat Galactus Quiz is something that Galactus and I will be expanding in the near future and it will likely be a weekly feature here on ComicBookMovie.com, so be on the look out for updates on that. In the mean time, some CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is welcome and helpful, so please feel free to leave me your suggestions, comments and insights below. And of course, feel free to discuss the answers!

Compared to many people on CBM, I'm a relative newbie to the comic book world. I've just recently (within the last 10 years or so) started reading comics. However, I've been a fan of comic book characters nearly all my life, thanks to cartoons like the X-Men Series and Batman. Been downhill ever since.

I am an avid movie watcher and run my own movie website,(GeekBoyMovieNews) which covers a wide variety of movies, books and television news. There is nothing better to me than to sit back and a enjoy a good movie, or a crappy one for a good laugh.

While you may not see a lot of articles submitted by me, I've been an active user for close to three years here on CBM and I enjoy every minute on here. We have the best online community on the net her at CBM.com.

I've been lucky enough to climb the ranks here at CBM and the almighty Galactus has chosen me to act as one of his Heralds (Jr. Editor). So if you ever need suggestions or help on articles, I am more than happy to help out; you can find me in the CBM chat quite often. I also assist Big G in his "Beat Galactus Quizzes," so if you feel like you have a good question for the next quiz or suggestions on making them work better and more smoothly, feel free to drop me a line.

I look forward to talking and discussing comic books and their movies with all of you on the site!

@Gambit89- They might be easy but you should see how fast some of those [frick]ers can type. Answering first is the hard part.

Can I get some props for the Nomex answer of what Galactus?
Greengo
Greengo - 9/14/2011, 5:20 PM
You should at least acknowledge the ones who gave the right answers

They weren't in this order, but even so. I had fun.
Greengo
Greengo - 9/14/2011, 5:23 PM
you know what.. this was as frustrating as it was fun... it wouldn't hurt to acknowledge those who got the answer right, being that some of us sacrificed 49 minutes of work to participate.

Congrats Hawk. And Zach: you guys are AWESOME!!!!

Congratz to the @THEHAWK.
I actually know most of these.
But I don't think I would of been able to win.
I'm too slow.
So, good questions.
