There will be some spoilers below!

SECRET WARS #9

(By Jonathan Hickman, Esad Ribic, and Ive Svorcina)

The heroes on Battleworld are ready to put an end to Doctor Doom's reign as a god. Black Panther and Namor prepare to take him on. How do you fight a god? T'Challa managed to get an Infinity Gauntlet and uses it to transform Doom into glass.

Namor follows this by throwing his trident at Doom and shatters his body. Both Namor and Panther know it's not that easy. Doom uses the powers he obtained to reform himself.

No Caption Provided

With Doom able to reform himself so easily, Namor is unable to do much when Doom retaliates. Panther manages to block Doom's blast and the two prepare to fight as gods.

No Caption Provided

The fight rages on. It almost appear they are evenly matched. Doom soon turns the tables. He makes it clear that T'Challa's actions haven't accomplished anything. Did Black Panther really think he could defeat God Doom?

No Caption Provided

As Doom points out how much of a fool T'Challa must be for thinking he could defeat him, he notices he's smiling up at him. This was all a distraction. Doom will have to continue the fight against Reed Richards.

BATMAN/TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES #2

(By James Tynion IV, Freddie E. Williams II, and Jeremy Colwell)

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are in a strange world trying to fight Shredder and the Foot Clan. In this world, they encounter a man dressed as a bat. As we often see in comics, a fight soon begins when Batman wonders what these giant turtles are doing in his city.

No Caption Provided

The four turtles attack Batman at once. He manages to dodge their blows, grabs one of Raphael's sai, and signals the Batmobile to shock him. Michelangelo comes at Batman and tells him to think fast.

No Caption Provided

Donatello is also taken out quickly. Leonardo charges toward Batman with his swords. He's not happy at seeing his brothers get knocked around.

No Caption Provided

Luckily for Leonardo, Master Splinter arrives to put a stop to all this. What will Batman think of a giant talking rat?

BIRTHRIGHT #13

(By Joshua Williamson, Andrei Bressan, and Adriano Lucas)

Mikey is back in his homeworld after spending years in another dimension on Terranos. Trying to escape dark forces, they continue to follow him over and attack.

No Caption Provided

The fight was contained in a deserted area but it soon moves to the streets. Mikey isn't concerned about civilians witnessing the execution of his attacker. Mikey doesn't even flinch at his attacker's mystical swords.

No Caption Provided

Ready to complete another part of his mission to rid the world of this evil, he prepares for the final blow, he gets a little surprise.

No Caption Provided

It's not a physical attack but one that cuts into his soul. The attacker continues slashing at him and Mikey is unable to defend himself. You know there's no way this is the end for Mikey but it's definitely not looking good for him.

That's all the time we have for this week. Thanks to Imperviousand Bamz2Bluntz for their suggestions.

LMAO!!! This is awesome! Thankfully, Deathstroke decided to use his regular Katana instead of his Promethium one or this would've been an entirely different outcome!!;)

Not to be that guy but promethium doesn't have the feats to cut someone like superman....

@sirfizzwhizz: You didn't honestly expect the turtles to look good in their own comic against Batman did you? LOL

Actually its Batman and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cross over. And Batman isn't a terrible fighter so I would expect him to do good.

Also respect was given to everyone.

@lvenger: Damian has been getting wierd feats like laying out Tim Drake etc in Robin War.

Honestly, I recall a battle of the month or whatever featuring Batman vs the TMNT. The writer himself states that Splinter was created to be equal to Batman, so him beating up the TMNT should come as no surprise.

There will always be people who claim Batman gets beaten up whenever he runs into metahumans. To those people, I would advise actually picking up a Batman comic once in a while.

What comic says Slade's blade is prometheum? Seriously. No one can cite an issue number and i remember a Wizard magazine interview that said Deathstroke with a prometheum blade would be a good fight for Wolverine.

That wasn't just a regular infinity gauntlet, it was a composite infinity gauntlet, that turns the fight even more impressive.

@lvenger: Love the turtles, meh for Batman. However, ninjas in training should not beat a master of martial arts they know nothing about.

Fight went exactly like it should have.

Yeah sure, I guess the Turtles are just pushovers, yeah? 4 ENHANCED or Super-Human dudes, who had to carry around a shell that weighs what? their own body weight? Twice as much? Yeah like they never had to train or anything. They never took down whole gangs of baddies, AND their leader. Like they never fought SPACE ALIENS, Triceratons, for Christ's sake. Batman trains with weights what? twice a week? everyday? lifting what, twice his body weight? Now remember, he had this ridiculous fact file boasting his strength level and Martial arts prowess, ALONG with his degrees and stuff. Like, sure man, it's POSSIBLE to train weights everyday, at high intensity, AND fight crime every night. Batman is the most overrated comic book character of all time. Nothing original about him, and according to like every dude he's more "realistic" than other characters. Cos he somehow spends 64 out of the regular 24 hours doing shit, which the Flash is more likely to be able to accomplish
