Battle is on Earth
Mad God since Magic is fodder these days lol.
how is magic fodder, when this is literally the godess of magic who was belittling gods and shaking up the multiverse with just a fraction of her power
@ancient_0f_days: what makes you say she stomps? I felt these 2 were relatively even. One ended a multiverse and a multiversal being (twice) the other affects and manipulates a multiverse and other multiversal beings.
Pretty heavily in Hecate’s favor here. I am somewhat surprised.
@supermanwithatan01: Witching Hour Wonder Woman basically
has the majority of Hecates power which is the source most magic in DC, put a barrier around the Multiverse and pretty much stomped the Upside-Down Man who is the manifestation of all dark magic in DCs negative multiverse. Unless Genis Cell has some serious argument for him, I'm inclined to believe he loses badly

I'm more knowledgeable on Genis Vell than I am on Hecate but @donotdenyyourfate has filled me in a bit on Hecate and what makes her such a beast!! I personally believed them to be a stalemate.
Anyway here are some of Genis Vell's feats: (copied from another thread I posted in)
Theres more but thats all just off the top of my head
@supermanwithatan01: based on that, I think he might be similar in power, but WH Diana was rewriting reality on the spot, not to mention Hecate makes Nabu nervous. Maybe it won't be a blowout and I'm more inclined to believe it's closer now, but I'm not sold that Hecate won't win based on Diana handled things
@ancient_0f_days: fair enough! They’re both underused characters of immense power!
@donotdenyyourfate: hey buddy, long time no talk! Hope you’re well! Thought I’d shout out since I finally got around to making this thread Haha. I kept going back and forth on it and figured the vine could help sort it out.
Genis Vell wins. He has already taken out a more powerful being than himself and Hecate for that matter. Plus he has shown proficiency in manipulating magic. Marvel and DC both have illustrated high-end energy/matter manipulators can handle magic as simply another form of energy.
Hecate probably. She was the Goddess of Magic in the DC Multiverse. Curious about where her source of power came from though. Probably the literal Source.
this. Hecate was later mentioned to pre date gods and the sphere of gods( where all the gods in Dc live). We also know she can draw dark magic from the dark dimension beyond the source wall.

i wouldn't use Dr Manhattan's statements as magic being simply reality warping as factual. Dc does a bad job of streamlining their continuity across multilple titles because as Dr M' s feat against magic took place , Magic's origin was retold on JLD barely months later.
In war of the gods it took a combo of Spectre + Dr fate+ Phantom Stranger + madame xanadu + zatanna and other mystics channeling their power through geo force to beat her.
Current version had Olympus gods, The lords of order and chaos, Rama kursha Afraid of her and explitly mentioned they cannot compare to her. Many of said beings being universal - multiversal

I understand your point here, and agree that DC does ignore its own history, but this is factual. It has been shown on more than one occasion, including within the past 6 months in DC's largest event. Powerful energy manipulators can and have manipulated or, in Manhattan's case, overpowered magic. I do not believe that it means in all cases, energy manipulator > magic user, but it does hold weight. In both Marvel and DC this has been the case for some time now.

Everyone you mentioned here is specifically a magic user. That is sort of like having the Silver Surfer, Quasar, Thanos, Nova and Galactus (all energy manipulators of the highest order) fight against an "Insane" Genis Vell, who is arguably one of comics most powerful energy/matter manipulators, and citing that as a reason that magic wouldn't be effective against him. None of those characters utilize magic, just as most of the ones you mentioned do not utilize energy/matter manipulation.
Current version had Olympus gods, The lords of order and chaos, Rama kursha Afraid of her and explitly mentioned they cannot compare to her. Many of said beings being universal - multiversal
Most of this is irrelevant. I could just as easily cite the Norse gods, Shuma Gorath, the Vishanti, the Octessence, the Celestials, and of course the the Elder gods that all died as a result of Genis ending the multiverse.
I do not believe him to be more powerful than her, but I do believe he has the tools and abilities to either kill her or at the very least BFR her somewhere that magic is nulled.

In Dc tho, the argument doesn't hold much weight tbh. The event in doomsday completely disregarded or rather nerfed magic in some way to get their point across that's why i say i don't take said events as gospel. Manhattan's whole statement about magic being science based energy that was left after creation doesn't really make sense. The otherkind, the original owners of magic, (pre new 52) they were teased to be beyond the source wall (helmet of fate issue 4) in the dark dimension that even the presence mentions he is afraid because if magic was harnessed from the dark dimension by a being called Okeontis it would destroy creation then that is somehow overlooked . WIS in my opinion don't you think?

I get the point you are trying to make but it's based on wrong information. Two of the mentioned characters are some of the best energy and matter manipulators in Dc, Dr fate and Spectre. pre crisis fate could harness any form of energy ( we've seen him tapping into the well springs of creation, Khalid could use energy from tidal and waves, him tapping into darkseid's highfather's power and using it to supplement his own etc not to mention he could also absorb and redirect energy, manipulate weather, electrical energy, soul manipulation, even reality warp and not mention quite a number of times he displayed Matter manipulation to the point he was reassembling alan scott's constructs via said ability. Spectre on the other hand has quite possibly any ability and both matter manipulation and energy are just part of he was creating supernova's in his hands,turned Zauriel's wings into stones etc their feats displaying Genis' ability are quite a bunch but it's just not their min ability.
Most of this is irrelevant. I could just as easily cite the Norse gods, Shuma Gorath, the Vishanti, the Octessence, the Celestials, and of course the the Elder gods that all died as a result of Genis ending the multiverse.
I do not believe him to be more powerful than her, but I do believe he has the tools and abilities to either kill her or at the very least BFR her somewhere that magic is nulled.
It does tho, these are some of the most powerful beings in DC, in one of the origin stories the loo and loc were even responsible for creation and they now cite Hecate as who they got their power from. Hecate is said to predate the sphere of gods ( which tbh makes things a bit difficult to understand because even the presence (silver city) exists in said place) so if she predates them who's creation is she under? I do agree he can technically BFR her,kill her is just not happening tbh. The only being that was able to do that was her equal who was one shotting beings like the first of the fallen but even then she wasn't fully killed as her power still went to Diana and Circe
Also a side question, did Insane genis' events affect the beings you mentioned (actually showed them die from said events)? i only ever heard he killed eternity but he needed some form of outside help
Hecate wins in a comfortable way.
i really want to say genis he is by far my all time favorite captain marvel lol but i don't know anything about hecate
Bump.
I’m still torn.. On one side, Hecates been hashed out much more recently. She’s fresh and clearly uber powerful. Then we have Insane Genis Vell, whose biggest story is 20 years old, and even his Thunderbolts “Photon” days are like 14 years old.. I still believe these 2 to be evenly matched. Neither is stomping. I think they can stand toe to toe, feat for feat.
@redshift_bacon: any particular reason you back Hecate over Genis? (Not debating just curious)
@supermanwithatan01: I feel like Hecate's implied superiority to DCs Heaven/Silver City > Genis's ability to kill Eternity w/ help.
Imprisoning and killing Eternity is something I can see the Pax Dei doing on their own, without help.
@supermanwithatan01: I feel like Hecate's implied superiority to DCs Heaven/Silver City > Genis's ability to kill Eternity w/ help.

That misinformation was already dispelled in multiple threads. Genis did not have help. He killed him all on his own. It’s even shown in New Thunderbolts he would do it all over again.
Here is a link to a thread where Morpheus breaks it down.
@supermanwithatan01: Regardless, I still feel like its a feat the Pax Dei can replicate, and Hecate is significantly above them. Hecate, imo, can replicate his best feat with no trouble. I don't see Genis getting any new feats soon, either soo...
Genis oneshots.
@redshift_bacon: it’s true, Hecate is also a beast and Genis will not be getting any new feats anytime soon. I just don’t believe there’s anything she’s been able to do that he in turn could not replicate.
People who don't read the comics act like their subjective opinion holds weight.... Hecate stomps
@supermanwithatan01: Hecates power is superior to the Pax Dei, the Silver City plus all the others residing in the God Sphere. Thats significantly above the power than Genis displayed. The only way to argue for Genis is using a no-limits fallacy

How do you imagine that to be true? Genis Vell under his own power killed a multiversal being and subsequently restarted (plus surviving the destruction of) the multiverse. He also has "omniversal telepathy", the capability to un-do an uber reality warp in Wanda's HoM warp, and has the ability to BFR characters to Nth space (where powers (both energy and magic) do not work. Unless we're hyping Hecate as this ridiculous omniversal being (with absolutely no feats to back it up as far as I've seen) then I'm not sure why you are saying she's "significantly more powerful". My questions are genuine, no intention of being dismissive of your comments.
What exactly is it that she's done that leads you to believe she's so much more powerful that Genis Vell? I'm asking in earnest and more than happy to be wrong here, if you are able to provide scans. I created this thread because I have seen Perpetua and Hecate come from no where (& evidently knowing nothing about each other lol) and suddenly be these insanely powerful beings that pre-date all others.
So far, nothing that has been shown to me has proven that she has the combat feats to prove she's superior to the level displayed by Genis Vell. We know that reality warping is irrelevant, since he's able to "undo" it, we know that magic has been manipulated (in DC and Marvel) very recently in DC's biggest story of the last 2 years, by a character less powerful than Genis Vell; essentially made a mockery of magic which I want clear: I thought was nonsense as well. Moving on, any form of telepathy would be useless against him, so thats out. He has cosmic awareness to see all the possible outcomes for every decision either he or she could make, which grants him insight into every interaction she's had or will have as well as her weaknesses and powerset. We also know that he has killed a being that is at the very least in her weight class.
So again, If she's got direct combat feats of killing consequential multiversal beings, or something similar to the insane cosmic awareness that he has, to let her know what his weaknesses are (since he will clearly know all about hers and the other kind; specifically the Upside down man) then please show it so I might add it to my scan collection. I would love to add her to my favorite character's list, assuming I learn more about her. If you're able to show some feats of her doing anything to anyone close to the level of (multi)Eternity, or showing that she is superior to specifically that level defensively then I'll concede and request this thread be locked.
n.b. I'm only providing feats for Genis because I know much more of him, and have read all his stories. I'm happy to learn about Hecate and even to place him "significantly" beneath her if she does indeed have more feats than I've heard of thus far.
**edit** changed a few sentences and fixed some grammatical errors
Genis oneshots.
Any particular reason you feel that way? I'm always on the lookout for some of Genis Vell's feats I may be overlooking. I have leaned towards Genis (not as a bias but simply through my lack of knowledge regarding Hecate) for awhile. But Hecate does have many impressive feats and based on the indication I get from viners that I trust, like my friend @donotdenyyourfate, she's potentially closer to the level of someone like the Great Evil Beast in power. If thats the case then she actually would be above him, I would imagine.

I keep seeing people say he killed a Multiversal Being in Eternity but that isn't actually special. IG Thanos also One-Shot Eternity as well as other characters throughout Marvels Run. And no, IG Thanos did not 1-Shot an "aspect of Eternity", Multi-Eternity is a myth. Other people who have defeated Eternity include IG Thanos, PR Beyonder, Oblivion and Abraxas. All Multiversal Beings sure, but it just goes to show, Eternity is not undefeatable. Also, from my understanding, Eternity wanted to be destroyed, that way the universe could be reborn/remade. Not really relevant though, since Genis still had to have the actual power to do it.
Capability to undo the HoM warp is implied and not shown as well, so if you are going to say feats only, that wouldn't apply. I'll give it to him regardless as its a great feat. BFRing Characters to Nth space is pretty much like BFR'ing characters to higher dimensions in DC, which is something high-tiers do to default-win fights.

The reason for Hecate's "hype" is simple: She has already demonstrated the ability to do this.
Here is basically the map of the greater DC Multiverse. You'll notice that the Sphere of the Gods is a Dimensional tier above the Orrey of Worlds. The Orrey of Worlds is 5th-Dimensional, proven in Final Crisis when Mandrakk is draining the Orrey of the Bleed, which is 5th-Dimensional. Right off the bat, we can conclude that the Sphere of the Gods is a 6th-Dimensional space.
Hecate Existed before any of the Gods, and before the Sphere of Gods was formed:
Hecate has the power to destroy all the Sphere of Gods:
She easily destroys Olympus, and the Greek Gods ran away before she got there:
BTW, thatss the Sphere of The Gods, including the Silver City, aka Pax Dei, Archangels. Suffice to say, that this feat is superior to any feat that Genis Vale has, because the Sphere of the Gods itself is above the Marvel Multiverse.
The Upside-Down Man is stated to be Hecate's equal, the Dark Multiverses version of her:
Her Magic is the only thing that can harm him at the time, this includes the Silver City and Hell:
And UDM Himself is also above the Sphere of Gods. The one talking in blacked-out Text is FOTF. First of the Fallen, ruler of Hell. He gets 1-Shot by the Otherkind later on:
>The Sphere of Gods is beyond the Marvel Multiverse (Eternity)
>Hecate Existed before the Sphere of Gods, and can destroy the Sphere of Gods
>Hecate equals the Upside-Down Man, who threatens the entirety of the DC Multiverse
