@greenlantern555: Not good enough. Everyone should be asking if thought is faster than light because Gambit has reacted to a punch thrown by Daken who's punch moved at the speed of light. That feats already been proven to be canon here on the vine also. BB isn't coming outta this one alive.
Round 1. Tony will have to play stick amd move here. The environment benefits Manta more than Tasky. All Manta needs is one lucky shot to end this. The fact that there's water for Manta to swim in as well as hide in and tight sewer corridors which make it more difficult for Taskmaster to utilize his copied agility moves in give Manta an almost near victory.
Round 2. Taskmaster uses an old trick he saw Hawkeye perform to shoot his arrows to the sides of Black Manta so they ricochet and simultaneously impale him in the neck on either side. Instant kill.
Round 3. I can see this going either way with the victory going to Black Manta if Tony gets to close to the water which Manta would mostly take advantage of as a hiding place and Taskmaster coming out on top if Black Manta decides to go on land searching for him in an area surrounded by woods which he'd be hiding in waiting to launch death from above.
Gambit combines his agility and speed to dance around Manta with ease all the while keeping him off balance with timed kinetic cards to keep his focus off of him and then easily flip over him and touch his helmet for a quick charge in the process. By the time Black Manta realizes what's happened he won't have enough time to get his helmet off and you can guess how that ends.
@itouchedtheboat: Aside from his standard lighting fast attacks in the game which are all canon he has plenty of showings in the Street Fighter Round 1,2 ect books by Udon. One of which being tagging Cammy before she could react.
