The Revenant Marvel Comics Discussion Thread

So, I was just on a discord server where somebody said Heralds are 5D and Immeasurable giving only time travel feats for the latter and not actually saying anything for the former. Obviously, I disagreed with that, but when they explained why, one thing in particular caught my attention. Don't get me wrong, it did nothing to convince me of their stats, but it did bring one thing to my attention.

https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Avengers/JLA

They argued that due to a 2003 crossover between Marvel and DC that some Marvel and DC characters would scale to one another, and just looking at the wiki page for this event, I can see the argument. Marvel never made a new Earth designation for this event like they did with some other Marvel and DC crossovers (Such as Earth-7642 and Earth-74425) and apparently the events were mentioned in future comics from both series.

I thought I'd bring it up here before doing anything like making a crt to get people's opinions.
 
5-D base heralds? Why and how? Like some have legit hax on that level, sure, but base ap? Nahh.


also marvel never considered JLA/AVENGERS canon, only DC did to a certain degree. And that's just throwaway references here and there.
 
I mean its dumb to scale two otherwise unrelated continuities off of a single crossover lasting 4 issues total, we knew it existed for eons, but no way in hell we're gonna give it priority over their own feats, and they just not end up relevant as supporting feats as well.

Marvel side especially, only thing really calling it canon is the handbook (which for the record doesnt namedrop anything), which honestly is as legit as Smash being canon to Bayonetta off of the Amiibo letter.

It's a fun thought to have but we're not oofing 6 decades of showcase for a series that ran for 4 months and scales to characters never seen again in the verse, its disrespectful to either one of the medias.
 
k, just wanted to check in about it.

Although with how the stats are currently marvel and dc characters might as well scale to each other
 
Are there any universal abilities that all Doombots are considered to have that I should add? I remember seeing some on the Marvel wiki, but they also didn't cite their sources and seemingly didn't care much weather something was specialized for a specific Doombot and what was universal.
 
From what I can remember, the basic abilities of them include energy protection, electricity manip, forcefields, flight, superhuman physical characteristics ofc, info analysis via scanning, and self-destruction. Only ones I can recall atm
 
Profile looks good but the intelligence rating could really do with some scans

Also on the topic of Mahvel profiles, I've been working on revamping Odin (And also making a profile for Seth). Only real notable difference I've done for Odin so far are his powers and abilities and removing a single feat from his AP section.
 
not sure about using visions statement he was refereing to the greek gods not gods in general
I think he's only referring to the greek gods because they're the only ones that are really relevant to that storyline and because they're the ones who died and needed to be reborn.

By the way, wasn't it said that Seth could destroy Yggdrasil in the same arc where he fought odin?
Yeah but Seth was weakening Yggdrasil with a special machine for several months before he attempted to destroy it.
 
Anyone know how to cite the guidebook stats? The respect thread I used just called it "Avengers NOW!", but that's kind of a series
