Apocalypse

Adam, obviously. Apoc ain't got anything to say he wins beyond some extremely loose fights, but I expect that'll be enough for some apologetics.

Adam post-flashpoint hasn't particularly been that impressive either unless I missed a few things.

Aquaman was just fighting someone throwing Adam around, Superman blocked and sent the same opponent flying, Wonder Woman defeated that version of Adam, Wonder Woman and Aquaman are presented as equals, Wonder Woman and Aquaman both have better showings against Superman (and Superman level characters), Superman easily beat infected Shazam, Superman and Wonder Woman were both beating Shazam just prior to Forever Evil, etc.

I don't think the Shazam characters are what they once were.

It's better than "I lose all of my fights" Apoc.

@professorrespect: He loses fights he shouldn't.

You are right, though. If there's a way to lose a fight Apocalypse finds it.

Edit: Adam's speed is likely enough here.

@professorrespect:

Lol sad but true.

He really needs a revamp and be turned into a badass character that he should be

Black Adam should be able to beat Apocalypse but I think Apocalypse would put up a decent fight despite his low showings.

@ashrym: There was this from the first issue of Future State's Suicide Squad.

High-end and unclear, but still pretty cool.

Apocalypse has big wins and most of loses were plot induced but some people will ignore that

@karkus: The problem there was it was a single panel flashback without context in a possible future that was inconsistent what was shown before and since. Adam has a feat transmuting people to stone with magic too, but it's seemed like a one-off.

Bendis might give out some good feats. We'll see.

bump

BA

Apocalypse win

Adam has better feats overall.

@professorrespect: dead battle black adam vs apocalypse

Huh, how topical. Death Battle’s animation was great, but their scaling was out-of-context on a lot.

Im staying out of this battle because I know nothing about Black Adam.

@pyrofn: ok

Black Adam takes this, especially with more recent feats

Black Adam, apoc jobs a little too much.
