anyway. it was a test run for the concept. they still have tonnes in common that was used as the basis for the contest. i already said maybe osborn would have been better, but whatever.

planning on going with supes vs. sentry, bucky vs. jason todd, and hulk vs. solomon grundy, among others, in the near future. happier with that?
Luthor goes toe to toe with superman in the suit, so doom having powers isn't really a concern, I think. Doom owning a country isn't a big deal to me, because it is some pissant country the size of milwaukee. Not some giant military power. It would come down to a battle of intellect and resources, and in that regard, they are pretty much dead even.

Also, I disagree about "hired goons" not factoring into Luthor vs Fisk. Fisk can only really get more down to earth villains on his side. Bullseye is probably the best he can come up with. But Luthor, using either money or manipulation, could get just about any villain on earth to do what he wants.

Your other suggestions are much better, although I think Hulk would win in a landslide against grundy. May I suggest Deathstroke vs Deadpool.
