vs
should be a very, very close battle. Who wins?
Quasar should win.
His force fields can withstand Mar-vells physical attacks and the force that his constructs can apply should be enough to incapacitate Mar-vell. Mar-vells photon blasts can be absorbed by Quasar so again limiting the attack options Mar-vell actually has.
The only issue I can see is Mar-vells cosmic awareness as this has sometimes provided insight in to how to defeat a foe.
The Quantum-Bands outclass the Nega-Bands by leaps and bounds.
Don't get me wrong, Mar-Vell is a superior soldier, but Vaughn is quite good and rendering his opponents defenseless without hurting them.
[fanboy]Quasar owns!!!!!!! 1.Quasar can NEVER die even if completly destroyed he would return again even stronger 2.he is much bigger than Marvel 3.Quasar has a early-warning sensory array sensitive up to a lightyear. 4. Quasar is da bomb!!! [/fanboy]

Nothing personal... but I hate you and want you to die. j/k
Actually, its Phyla I hate.
Heh -- or, they'll both die, and become one person! And she'll be a hot lesbian!
Naw, that'd never happen.
I much prefer Wendell to Phylla as well. I think she's sort of ridiculously bad at using the bands. She's also a poorly written character, who sadly is in a great book.
But yes, Wendell vs. Mar-Vell, I side with Quasar as well.
I'm not sure who the picture is of...heh.
No disrespect to Q-fans, it'd be good, but give the legend his due.
I think if Wen-Dell was a real person, he'd tell you the same thing. "That's Captain Marvel, he just finds a way."
"I'm not sure who the picture is of...heh.No disrespect to Q-fans, it'd be good, but give the legend his due. I think if Wen-Dell was a real person, he'd tell you the same thing. "That's Captain Marvel, he just finds a way." "It's a picture of Quasar from the Anniliation storyline.
I dunno about that, I think it'd be good, either way...based primarily on the quantum bands, are they technically more powerful than the nega bands, however some similiar in range of power? I've seen the nega bands do soome pretty out there stuff in recent times. However, I think you may be onto some thing there technically speaking. As as an outright fight here, I think Mar-Vell would get the slight edge based on hand to hand and intelligence as far as battle is concerned.
I don't have any problem with Quasar, so do go postal or anything, I just Mar-Vell wins this.
I just think Mar-Vell wins, based on better battle skills, more experience and a better understanding of the cosmic awareness than most.
I think the legends takes this.
I often wonder what Mar-Vell would look like had he given the chance to evolve over time with new artists and things.
You have to know that they are obviously from the same tree, especially Gruenwald's Quasar in particular, he's even said that was a tribute to Captain Mar-Vell. I'm not saying he's rip off or anything like that, so get defensive, I'm not attacking anyone personally, but just for discussion's sake, there are some similiarities, perhpas not as many as there once were but just for conversation purposes.

Personally, if you like Captain Mar-Vell, or you like Quasar, more power to you but as far as the discussion itself goes, I have a question:
You keep saying show me 'evidence' of something that I already explained in depth why 'character A' would win in such a fight.
These are fictional characters we have nothing but our own logic to base these things on when they've never happened in comic books.
So I ask you, where is your said 'evidence'?
I think character A's intellect, fighting skills, resourcefulness due in part to his awareness, combined with his energy skills and use trumps character b's arguably higher energy levels in a true fight. Though it would be good.
What more can you say if it never happened? The entire premise of the discussion is based upon speculations. Does that mean one is any better than the other? No.
Where is such "evidence"?
You're losing my interest here.
"@the creator said:What evidence."@Mar-Vell Liberation Front said:That's exactly what I did.Mar-Vell: Smarter, mastered cosmic awareness, much better fighting skills and experience.Quasar: Equal or arguably more energy driven attacks from the quantum bands, however, the nega bands are close enough, it's not that much of a difference maker, it won't matter.

Okay, I can respect your claims now that you actually practiced what you preached so to speak...but really, I mean, really, do you honestly believe Wendell Vaughn as cool as he may be, would actually defeat the original, Mar-Vell in a fight on even playing field were it to happen?
Just a yes or no will suffice...all respect here.
Quasar should win here. The Quantumbands are a more powerful weapon and he is quite adept at using them.

"I most always practice what I preach but most of us who understand the power sets of both characters see Quasar winning.
Wow, that's pretty arrogant to assume your speaking for everyone even if they have the feeling as you in this particular discussion.
Even Quasar supporters here, if I were one, it's just a battle thread, I'd be insulted by someone speaking FOR me instead of at least fairly assesing the other side.
I've given you my analyzation of the skills involved in these characters. Mar-Vell can use his photonic nega band driven energy in creative ways like he did in the Moench/Broderick run, to create a shield protecting an entire planet with his trail from missles of destruction.
I still don't think your getting it, whether you agree or not is fine, I don't think you've researched Mar-Vell enough other than a couple issues and a very inaccurate handbook rating system. He's used them to turn molecules into whatever he wanted before, even clothes.
He's not as arrogant as that, but make no mistake, he will fin this fight if pressed.
What we're really debating here is 2 things:
1. The Quantum bands being slightly more powerful than the nega bands, are they?
2. The guy behind the bands is a far more resourceful warrior. This guy is a trained killer. He chooses to be a hero.
I think when an expert warrior is given an arguably slightly less but similiar weapon and an average to good at best warrior has a slightly superior one (which is arguable), I'll take the expert.
You have yet to exchange logical discussion and rather use the thread as a popularity contest.
Mar-Vell was first, by the way, and doesn't have the luxury of the evolution of comics interpretation of power.

So potentially
1. Everyone was swayed by my arguments
2. Everyone was put off by your arguments
3. People actually know the characters
4. A mix of the above
So me saying "I most always practice what I preach but most of us who understand the power sets of both characters see Quasar winning." is me speaking for everone else.
I tend to think of it as summarising the overwhelming agreement that people have registered here to say Quasar beats Capt Marvel.
I always assess the other side. Maybe you should try and look at a persons posting history before throwing out a comment like that.
Skills don't always win battles particularly when there is a significant power difference.
Capt Marvel has only occasional showings of power at the levels you describe - shielding a planet.
In most of his appearances he displays a lot lower p[ower level that appears to be his more avarage level.
Just like other characters have, his power level sesawed, and that is why I tend to look at the avaerage power level a character displays. It gives you a better feel for how the battle would behave in most circumstances.
You can belive what you want about my knowledge of capt Marvel. I have seen him face Thanos in hand to hand combat. I've seen him fight Ronan and many others. I don't rely on just handbook entries but look at the feats that a character performs but if you had done any homework on my previous postings you would have realised this.
Let's see. How often has he used his ability to manipulate matter then on anything other than his clothes.....please post details because that is what we need to make informed opinions. Details, facts, evidence.
How does thisHe's not as arrogant as that, but make no mistake, he will fin this fight if pressed.show facts ?
The Quantum bands are a conduit to the Quantum Zone.. They have a massive ability to absorb energy of virtually any kind. They can be used to create hard energy constructs like a Green Lantern does. They can create forcefields and permit travel via Quantum Jumps - teleportation across galactic distances. Quasar has applied Quantum Armour to himself, effectively raising his durability to levels that enable him to takes blows from beings as powerful as Thor (even if for a short period of time) and also enhance his strength to similar massive levels.
Quasar has trapped beings in the Qunatum Zone before via his Quantum jumps.
Quasar has easily absorbed the power of a star drive before to his acapacity to 'drink' energy is huge.
All of this has been logical fact based debate.
You can look at a characters feats and make fact based decisions.
So now show me where the logical detailed facts are for Marvel winning in the following,I dunno about that, I think it'd be good, either way...based primarily on the quantum bands, are they technically more powerful than the nega bands, however some similiar in range of power? I've seen the nega bands do soome pretty out there stuff in recent times. However, I think you may be onto some thing there technically speaking. As as an outright fight here, I think Mar-Vell would get the slight edge based on hand to hand and intelligence as far as battle is concerned.
