If James Bond, Ethan Hunt, John Wick, and Jason Bourne were all ordered the take the other 3 out, who would come out alive?

Ive seen questions similar to this come out before looking at these 4, but i cant seem to find discussions on this specific outcome. So many of the matchups against these 4 i see Ethan Hunt coming out on top, but ive always felt the exact opposite (let me also preface, i have not seen all of the movies these 4 are in, maybe half all together, but its still something that im curious about).

James bond always seems to be captured, every movie, the only reason he isnt taken out is because of villain incompetance. Ethan hunt always depends on his team and technology, and always seems to disable but never take out. To me its between John Wick and Jason Bourne, and my gut says JB would leave victourious, but only if it doesnt come down to a gun fight in close quarters. Im also less familiar with JW in total so im sure im missing stuff. Whats everyones thoughts?

Billy Butcher (The Boys Show) VS Billy Butcher (The Boys Comic)

Which version of Billy Butcher do you think would win if they both had to fight? The one from the TV show ended up getting powers that were a lot different from the comic version, but they were both generally high tier supes in their worlds. Would comic Butcher's general 50x enhanced strength and durability along with his fighting skills be better than show Butcher's cancer tentacles?

Both Butchers are at peak and have crowbars.

Here are their Respect Threads, though Show Butcher's isn't fully up to date: Comics Butcher and Show Butcher


  • Round 1: Final Episode Show Butcher fights Comic Butcher.

  • Round 2: Show Butcher has his Temp V powers instead.

Who is the weakest character who could successfully help Moira Brown (Fallout) write the perfect Wasteland Survival Guide by being her assistant?

For anyone who needs a refresher on Fallout 3, here's a link explaining the whole question in full: https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Wasteland\_Survival\_Guide\_(quest)

But TDLR: the wasteland survival guide quest features the player acting as Moira's assistant by performing various tasks for her, which are as follows:

Chapter 1: Find food from the Super-Duper Mart, contract radiation sickness, and traverse a mine field.

Chapter 2: Test the repellent on mole rats, place an observer unit inside a mirelurk nest, and return to Moira with injuries equaling more than 50% of your health.

Chapter 3: Research Rivet City's history, install the processor widget in the RobCo Production Facility Mainframe, and access the card catalogue at the Arlington Public Library.

Who is the weakest character who could successfully complete these objectives and get the best possible results? Lying to Moira about the research or convincing her to stop writing it entirely aren't win conditions. The wasteland survival guide needs to be at least useful in order to win. Moira will also still do her actions after each successful assignment (Eg: she heals the LW from their injuries even if they're crippled after you do that assignment).

Round 1: Who can complete the assignments and get a decently well researched wasteland survival guide?

Round 2: Who could go all the way and complete all of the optional objectives alongside the main objectives to get the best possible result of the wasteland survival guide?

Bonus round: Any character who would dramatically improve the wasteland survival guide by completing all optional objectives and providing their own research into the various assignments.

Mark Grayson (Invincible TV Show) is isekai'd to a different universe. What's the weakest universe you can send him to, where he can become strong enough to beat Thragg?

If you're going to use comic spoilers as a rough benchmark, please use spoilers. I'm tv show only, but I am vaguely aware of how things shake up. And if there are different feats from where the show is compared to where it was in the comic, let's use show feats.

Mark, at the very end of Invincible season 4, is isekai'd to a different fictional universe of your choosing.

After a period of 1 year Mark will return to his home universe, and must 1v1 fight Thragg, and win more than 5/10 times.

What's the "weakest" universe you can send him to?

Ideally, the universe/setting would be weak enough where the majority of its denizens cannot compete with the Invincible verse, but has enough buffs and hax that can improve Mark to the point of being able to fight Thragg.

Rules:

A) Mark cannot bring back any equipment to his home universe. Any buffs that Mark gets must be alterations of his very person, some sort of skill, a new power that can be obtained by other people in the verse, etc.

B) Mark can extend his training time if the universe he goes to has in-house time extension as a feature. A la the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. But ideally, it shouldn't be an infinite timespan where Mark can just train literally forever.

C) Mark has to be able to survive in the verse for the full 1 year, making friends and enemies as he normally would. This shouldn't be that hard, he is after all [TITLE CARD]. But sending him to the Xeelee Sequence verse or something will probably just get him killed.

Where do you send Mark, and what buffs can he possibly obtain that he can solo Thragg?

Can the cast of Monty Python and the Holy Grail travel to Mordor and successfully destroy the ring of power?

In an alternate universe where Frodo trips and breaks both of his ankles and his pancreas on the way to Rivendell. Gandalf, with no other option, is reluctantly forced to entrust the ring to King Arthur and his band of Knights (minus Sir Not-Appearing-in-this-Film) to deliver the ring to Mordor and destroy it in Mt Doom.

Can they get through the events of the entire story and be successful?

Too keep things fair, the Ring will have absolutely no mental effect on King Arthur or any of his knights.

For weapons they will be armed with individual swords and shields as well as being given King Isildur's blade and a singular Holy Hand Grenade.

Each knight will be given an individual amount of food equal to what Frodo and Sam we're given. (If thing's get dire they are allowed to eat Robin's minstrels.)
