Black Adam vs. Orion
The search didn't give me anything, and I thaught this might be cool. The fight takes place in the air, over the Pacific Ocean.
" Orion can absorb Adam's lightning and that's one of his best attacks so Orion wins "right, because black adam never beat anyone by hitting them.
" @Mr. Dead Pool said:" Orion can absorb Adam's lightning and that's one of his best attacks so Orion wins "right, because black adam never beat anyone by hitting them. "
Does anybody have any Black Adam scans or feats that would show that he can win? Orion looking goofy is not a valid argument.
BA wins but he has to a give an arm and leg to take it, Orion isnt the smartest fighter, plus BA aattitude towards this type of thing, he goes all mad man on Orion.
" @Silver man said:"Orion isnt the smartest fighter"Actually, yeah, he is. He's arguably the best trained of the New Gods, and he has much greater skill than Black Adam. "
@AtPhantom: my bad i must have been thinking of someone else then, i new i ****** up as soon as you said New Gods, BA dosent just lose an arm and leg , but also his life
" @AtPhantom said:Actually you weren't that far. Orion as he was portrayed in the Justice League comics is, basically, an idiot. Sadly that's the portrayal most people remember. In actual New gods books he has displayed incredible martial prowess, as befitting a God of War." @Silver man said:@AtPhantom: my bad i must have been thinking of someone else then, i new i ****** up as soon as you said New Gods, BA dosent just lose an arm and leg , but also his life ""Orion isnt the smartest fighter"Actually, yeah, he is.

Either way, this is far from a one sided match in either direction.
" @Silver man said:prove it. He's fought superman several times, and never really shows "skill""Orion isnt the smartest fighter"Actually, yeah, he is. He's arguably the best trained of the New Gods, and he has much greater skill than Black Adam. "
" @AtPhantom said:Of course not. Heavens forbid a Superman writer actually doing research about his opponent." @Silver man said:prove it. He's fought superman several times, and never really shows "skill" ""Orion isnt the smartest fighter"Actually, yeah, he is. He's arguably the best trained of the New Gods, and he has much greater skill than Black Adam. "
" @the human Juggernaut said:I hate how the New Gods are forced to job so much just to fit into continuity. It's freaking Orion, the New god of War. He should be able to take all but the zenith of super beings in physical combat." @AtPhantom said:Of course not. Heavens forbid a Superman writer actually doing research about his opponent." @Silver man said:prove it. He's fought superman several times, and never really shows "skill" ""Orion isnt the smartest fighter"Actually, yeah, he is.

This is what i have been saying along. When Orion was written by Jack Kirby he was never hotheaded he was just a tourtured soul that had to deal with his inner darkness. It was Grant Morrison that made him hotheaded which was in his JLA run in the late 1990s. The only writers that got a understanding of Orion inner darkness was Jack Kirby(of course), Mark Evanier, John Bryne and Walt Simonson. He was written has a guy that actually trying to serach for happiness and peace but he had to deal with the burden of being Darkseid son. Then Grant Morrison comes and makes him into crazed warmonger which he never was in the first place.
I'm also kind of hoping to get into a debate with someone about this. :P
And as I said, I will be backing Orion.
Oh yeah well...

Fun fact, these two actually had a brief scuffle once. But it was only for two pages and they didn't really do much at all. But as I said, I go with Orion as the winner if they had a full fight.
I think Orion wins, he's better hand to hand, gave Superman a beat down without exploiting any magic weakness, he has no weakness to magic like Superman does against Diana, Teth or Bily and Orion in-character can be pretty ruthless. So when Black Adam faces Orion he's not going to fight a guy who holds back like Superman. Orion can also BFR
