Wonder Woman over Doom is lame, partially just because characters like Wonder Woman are lame. DC's characters, apart from Batman's comics, just aren't as interesting. This could easily come down to a face off between Superman and Wonder Woman in the finals, which would be the least interesting possible result because of how boring those two characters are. In addition to being very powerful, Doom is at least also an interesting character. Sad to see him out and Wonder Woman moving on.

Yeah, it's BS. General Comic book fan consensus favors Doom winning over Wonder Woman. Magneto winning over Thanos made zero sense either.

This really has become a poll based on who's name is widely recognised with Superman likely to win this

I am not a comic book nerd at all, so I've only been voting in the match ups I know something about. But lets get real here. SportsJunky is correct. He Man should win. He literally hangs out with "The Masters of the Universe". And he's their leader. So how can anyone beat the Masters of the Universe? They wouldn't be called that if they were the second place masters. Check and mate.

More than I ever wanted to know about He Man.
He Man profile


Also, it seems He Man vs DC characters has already been done.

I'm down with the He-Man bandwagon if it means Superman doesnt win

I find the Superman vs Hulk matchup interesting. It's pretty established that Superman's strength is great, but has it's limits, while Hulk's only limit is how angry he is. I think it would have to come down to the laser eyes, is Hulk's skin strong enough to endure that? If so then Hulk wins a fight of endurance, if not then he loses in 2 seconds

Couldn't Superman just fly him to the sun and drop him? Pretty much what killed the Hulk in comics.

I don't know how, but I'm pretty sure that Squirrel Girl still ends up winning this.

He-Man beaten by Dr Strange? I'm out. You guys don't understand the meaning of "Masters of the Universe."

If there is one thing I have learned from all these polls is the wisdom of the crowds is terrible. Jean Grey vs Captain Marvel should not have been close and it wasn’t but the completely wrong way.

I was hoping He Man would have found a way to make a re-entrance...

Nobody left to fight Superman comes from a universe with kryptonite. Superman is also super lame though.

Dr. Strange for the win!

Superman is the Nickelback of superheroes.
