S15 W4: Meat Suits vs Madhouse

 David Byrne’s Meat Suits are: Galactus and his herald, David Byrne, Hal Jordan, Optimus Primal, Sentinel Prime, Terrax, Trin Kronos, Bumi, King Bumi, Reverse Flash, Shao Khan w/ scythe and personal Holzman shield, Omnius, Stormtroopers #1-20, Junkeons #1-10, Captain Caveman, Sagat, The Comedian, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, Ozymandias, Rorschach, The Last Autobot, Finster

The Doctor's Madhouse is: Kurt Houslander (w/ Power Glove), Darth Vader, Padme Amidala in Naboo Starfighter, Stilgar, Jamis, Harah, Shadeout Mapes, Brainiac in Brainiac's Skull Ship, Abeloth, Ursa, Silver Surfer, Captain Marvel, She-Hulk, Albus Dumbledore, Voldemort w/ Yellow Lantern Ring, Scarecrow w/ Yellow Lantern Ring, Pyro, Predator #1-3

All combatants are scattered across nearby dunes under the dual sun heat of Tatooine. The fremen feel close to home fighting on the sand. With Kurt Houslander leading the charge and Pyro and the Predators by their side, the battle starts with close combat action. Shadot Mapes gets the first kill on Finster with a quick slash of her crysknife while the predators charge after the small garrison of stormtroopers. The predators do more damage but the stormtroopers are able to outnumber them and the remaining try their hardest to land at least one blaster shot at the fremen who are in fierce battle with Sagat, Shao Khan and Captain Caveman. They are able to take out Mapes and Harah who wasn’t fighting but was looking for her kids. She had forgotten Jamis hired a babysitter and they are safe back on Arrakis. Jamis who had just dispatched Capt Caveman, dies at the hands of Shao Khan who has a longer reach with his scythe. Sagat releases an energy blast at Stilgar but Kurt jumps in front of the blast like a bodyguard giving the leader of Sietch Tabr enough time to take the water of the street fighter. Khan attempts to finish off Stilgar but Pyro burns him to a crisp (toasty!!)

“OH DARN!!” Kurt yells in his charred face. Stilgar and Pyro look confused until Kurt explains how he punched in the Konami code on his power glove before the match started. 

The ground rumbles as the trio look to see Sentinel Prime, The Last Autobot and the Junkeons charging at them. Kurt and Stilgar roll down the dune but Pyro attempts to hold his own. As he lets out a blast of flames, Prime sprays him with oil and he ends up burning himself. The bots don’t even slow down and move on to engage Ursa and Captain Marvel who just witnessed a sweet ape battle as their teammate She-Hulk was taken out by Optimus Primal who has transformed into Gorilla mode. The two look a little outmatched but they receive some air support from Padme and Brainiac in the sky. The battle ends with the the dunes scattered with car parts and the remains of the bots but also the corpses of Ursa and Captain Marvel. During the battle, Ominus is able to jump into Padme’s ship and take control of it in a kamikaze mission blowing up Brainiac in his Skull Ship. 

A few hundred meters away (Tatooine uses the metric system), Vader, Abeloth and Scarecrow are working their way through the Watchmen crew who is being aided by Trin Kronos and Reverse Flash. Scarecrow uses his Yellow Lantern Ring as force field while the two Star Wars villains shock and slash their way through the Meat Suits. Bumi and King Bumi move the dune sand to avenge their teammates but Scarecrow’s ring runs out of power and Vader, Abeloth and Scarecrow are consumed by the sand. Silver surfer slides in and relieves both earthbenders of their heads before flying off. 

The final battle has just begun and Stilgar and Kurt rush in, one more notably winded than the other. Terrax takes out Stilgar just as Dumbledore shoots him with a paralyzing spell. A couple quick taps on the power glove and Kurt punches a hole in the torso of Terrax. “OH DARN!!” The excitement is short lived as Hal Jordan concentrates an energy blast towards the duo vaporizing them both. He tries a second shot at the Silver surfer who redirects it back at him with the bottom of his surf board killing him. 

The surfer is trying to steady himself from the blast and is getting attacked by Galactus. On the ground, Voldemort (who has just finished applying sunscreen to his translucent skin), tries to aim his killing curse at the mighty Galactus but keeps missing. Suddenly a small burst of light flashes next to him and Kurt materializes again with another free life. A screech of pain bellows across the barren landscape as they watch the Silver Surfer fall lifeless to the sand. With Galactus bearing down on them, Voldy thinks of a plan. He picks up Dumbledore’s wand and hands it to Kurt and wraps him up in a bear hug (straight men doin’ straight things). Voldy uses his Yellow Lantern ring to teleport the duo to the skull of the Mighty Galactus. In unison they both yell out - “Avada Kedavra!!” with the two wands pointed directly in his temples. 

David Byrne, who was singing the fighting on this whole time from the front chest pocket of Galactus, tried his hardest to run run run run run run run away but was crushed under his mighty weight.

FFL 2024 Week 4: Horsemen VS. The Trash Pandas

Darkseid’s Horsemen of Apokolips: Apocalypse, Supergirl, Agent Smith w/ Two White Lightsabers, Red Hood and the Outlaws: Red Hood, Arsenal and Starfire, The Eradicator, Juggernaut, He-Man, Battle-Cat, Nekron and Black Lantern #3-5, Wedge Antilles in a Y-Wing, Biggs Darklighter in a B-Wing, Erasmus, Dante, Alexander, Joel Noret, Indiana Jones w/ a Personal Holtzman Shield, Eric Carmen in the Hulk Booster Iron-Man Suit, Neo-Cymeks #3-10

The Skin Tight Leather Pantsed Trash Pandas: Gandalf The White, Emperor Palpatine, Star Lord, Gamora, Drax, Groot, Rocket the Racoon, Nebula, Mantis, Paul Maud’Dib, Darth Bane, Ghazan, John Wick, Naruto, T-1000, Scorpion, Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, Crosshair, Echo, Omega (Bad Batch are in the Marauder), Alia Atreides, Count Glossu Rabban, Duke Leto Atreides, Peregrin Took, Maximus Meridius, Tlaloc, Carrot Eater, Bene Gesserit Reverend Mother #1-2. (Rocket Racoon and John Wick are in a Land Speeder)

This battle takes place in the barren desert of the two sunned planet known as Tatooine…

We start out this battle with each team standing in lines facing each other ready to charge. On the Trash Panda side, the Atreides family and the Two Reverend Mothers are game planning their attack. Paul and Alia use their powers of foresight to try and come up with a path on how to beat the Horsemen. The Reverend Mothers argue with  Paul and say “There is no way we can defeat this powerful Horsemen Team, the best we can do is surrender and hope that they spare us.” Paul silences them and says “I see a Golden Path that can bring success to the Trash Pandas, but it is of the smallest probability of happening…charging this fight head on is what we must do.” Duke Leto Heeds his son’s plan and calls for the Trash Pandas to charge via bagpipes playing the Atreides Anthem. 

The Horsemen of Apokolips react to the Trash Pandas' call to charge and do a charge of their own. Humans, Mutants, Kryptonians, Titans, and Aliens alike all running, flying, and piloting as fast as they can into each other to likely face death shows their dedication to their managers and this league alike. 

Wedge and Biggs in their Y-Wing and B-Wing respectively get into a dog fight with the Bad Batch in their Marauder. They fight valiantly and beautifully in the air as they’re maneuvers look like paint brush strokes across a canvas. Mightily impressive flight skills in ships not known for their agility. Eventually the Bad Batch were able to clip one of the horizontal wings of Bigg’s B-Wing, causing him to lose control and crash into the desert. His death was not for naught though as he did crash into some of the soldiers fighting on the ground. This killed Peregrin Took, Carrot Eater, The Reverend Mothers, and Count Glasso Rabban on the Trash Pandas and Neo Cymek #5-10 on the Horsemen. Wedge is able to avenge his fallen friend though as he was able to strike the Marauder with his Y-Wing’s laser cannon. The Marauder crashed into the side of a hill and killed all occupants of the ship.

Rocket Racoon is piloting a land speeder while John Wick rides shotgun. Rocket yells “Take out that Y-Wing!” and throws Mr.Wick a Rocket Launcher he had built with lock on capabilities in preparation for this battle. Wick takes a shot but misses. Wick yells “Keep the ship steady!” Rocket tries his best to keep the speeder steady and Wick takes out Wedge with his second attempt. Rocket laughs and says “Star Lord was giving me crap for spending time and resources before the battle making that rocket launcher, saying that there wouldn’t be anyone on ships in this battle . I can’t wait to see him after this battle so I can laugh in his face.” John Wick pulls out  a rifle and proceeds to take shots at the Horsemen while riding the speeder. He’s able to take out Red Hood, He-Man, Battle-Cat and Joel Noret. 

While Rocket and John Wick were PUTTING IN WORK SON (as late, great Christopher “Big Black Boykin would say). The rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy worked to take out Nekron and the Black Lanterns. The Black Lanterns take out Mantis immediately with blasts from their lantern rings while Nebula tries to retaliate; they are still too powerful and kill her as well. Drax runs to Nekron and starts stabbing him with his dual knives but does no damage to Nekron as he really isn’t alive. Nekron strikes him with Dark Lightning and kills Drax. Nekron then does the same to Star Lord and Gamora. Groot, outraged, uses his limbs to grab the Black Lanterns and suck them into his body and begins to strangle them. Nekron can feel the Black Lanterns begin to lose life as they are his link to this world out of the Land of the Unliving. Nekron strikes Groot with Dark Lightning out of desperation. A cloud of dark smoke is all that can be seen where the lightning struck. The smoke blows away in the wind and Groot is fired to a crisp and dead but so are the Black Lanterns. Nekron's body begins to phase out and he is sent back to the Land of the Unliving. 

Rocket sees what has happened to the Guardians of the Galaxy. He drives the Land Speeder towards them, parks it and jumps out. He breaks out into a cry as his only family has died right in front of him. John Wick jumps out to console Rocket. As he jumps out Indiana Jones shoots Rocket with his revolver. John Wick immediately draws his .45 and shoots Indiana, but Doctor Jones' Holtzman shield blocks the bullet and he shoots John Wick in the chest with his revolver. John Wick winces in pain from the bullet but he is not dead as he is wearing his bullet proof suit. Indy drops his revolver and pulls out his whip. John pulls the belt out of his waistband and uses it as a weapon. Mr. Wick is able to block a snap of the whip with his belt and pulls Dr. Jones close to him with the whip. John then uses the belt to choke out Indiana Jones, John is visibly exhausted after this fight. Starfire sees an opportunity and takes it as she hits John Wick with her Ultraviolet Energy Projection Blast. 

Eric Cartmen can be heard whining about the heat in the desert, like a little bitch. T-1000 hears this, walks up behind Cartmen and turns his arm into a blade to stab Eric through his hulk buster suit. 

While that was happening, the heavy hitters on the Horsemen put in work on the Trash Pandas. Supergirl, Agent Smith, and the Eradicator took out Maximus, Tlaloc, Darth Bane and Ghazan.

T-1000, Scorpion and Naruto worked together to fight the Titans (Erasmus, Dante, and Alexander) and Neo Cymeks #3-4. Scorpion is able to take out the Neo Cymeks with his Tail. Erasmus retaliates by ripping Scorpion’s tail off and then squishing his head. T-1000 cuts off the leg of Erasmus with his bladed hand and then stabs Erasmus in the head. Naruto uses his Chakra bending abilities to take out Dante and Alexander.

Agent Smith sees what Naruto and T-1000 did and decides to handle them. Agent Smith punches T-1000 multiple times but sees that he does little to no damage to the Terminator. Agent Smith, visibly frustrated, grabs T-1000 and takes him deep into the Sarlacc Pit where the beast's stomach acid is strong enough to decompose the Terminator.

At this point the Atreides family joins in on the battle with the rest of the Trash Pandas. 

Emperor Palpatine uses his lightning to burn Arsenal and Starfire to a crisp. He then goes to electrocute Juggernaut. It doesn’t kill Juggernaut but it phases him and allows Paul to sneak behind and slit Juggernaut’s throat using his crysknife. Agent Smith goes to retaliate onto Paul but Paul was one step ahead of every single strike by Agent Smith. Eventually, Paul is able to  stab Smith in the chest and kill the program. While this is happening The Eradicator and Supergirl use their laser vision to cut both Duke Leto and Alia Atreides in half. This doesn’t phase the Maud’Dib at all though as it is all part of the path to victory. 

As an update, here is who is left alive on each team. The Horsemen have Apocalypse, Supergirl and The Eradicator left alive. While the Trash Pandas have Gandalf, Palpatine, Paul and Naruto left.

Supergirl has seen enough of the cackling Palpatine and flies up to him and rips his body in half in the blink of an eye.

Gandalf calls upon a lightning strike upon the two Kryptonians. The lightning bolt (infused with magic) visibly weakens the Kryptonians. Supergirl then charges Gandalf but he calls upon the Flame of Udun and slams his staff on the ground, deflecting Supergirl's charge and knocks her on her butt with visibly bleeding from her nose. Naruto joins the battle and hits The Eradicator with Chakra blasts which damage him but don’t kill him. The Eradicator flies towards Naruto with unbelievable speed and begins to choke out Naruto. Naruto fights back but Supergirl then joins in to help the Eradicator. Naruto uses the last of his strength to summon a huge blast of Chakra energy into the Eradicator's chest. This kills The Eradicator and Supergirl, but it also kills Naruto as well. 

Now it's just Paul and Gandalf against the mutant granddaddy of them all, Apocalypse. Gandalf calls a lightning strike on to his sword, Glamdring, and goes to attack the Mutant. Before he could even raise his sword up to attack, Apocalypse had turned it into dust. Gandalf goes to grab his staff and Apocalypse does the same. Gandalf turns to Paul and says in a defeated voice “I’m sorry Paul, it doesn’t look like we followed your Golden Path to success.” Paul responds with a smile on his face “A friend of mine once said “The Journey doesn’t end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take.” We followed the Golden Path to a tee. The Path was never about winning the battle, it was about winning this league. The Trash Pandas are very much like the Fremen. We die and the next up fight to continue our cause.” Gandalf smiles at him with a tear running down his eye and Paul says “Go to your white shores and far green country my old friend.”

Paul and Gandalf both turn to dust and fly away in the breeze. 

Dolla 49 McRib Vs. The Sigmaz

 Dolla 49 McRib is: The Anti-Monitor, Doomsday, Bizarro Superman, Omega, The JSA: The Spectre, Dr. Midnight, Hourman, Starman, & Mr. Terrific, The Sentry, Dr. Fate, Darth Malak, Count Dooku, Fin Fang Foom, Broly, Harkonen Soldier #1-10, Chattari Leviathon #1-3, & Green Martian #1.

The Sigmaz are:  The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Jason, Billy, Zack, Kimberly, & Trini, Zordon, Master Hand, Asura, The Dinobots: Grimlock, Slag, Snarl, Slag, & Swoop, Sixshot, Azula, Tai Lee, & Mai in The Landmaster, The Grand Inquisitor, The 7th Sister w/ ID9, The 8th Brother, The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:  Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Donatello, that make up the team with one other fellow Raphael: All packing Glocks in The Party Wagon, Casey Jones, Scorpnonk w/ Lord Zarack, Link (w/ Ancient Armor) on his motorcycle, Daruk (w/ Dusk Claymore), Urbosa, Mipha, & Rivali (w/ Topaz Rod).

If there is a bright enter of the universe, we are the planet that is farthest from.  Welcome to Tatooine ladies and gents, the place with two sons attached to it; but nobody has enough money to pay child support for either one of them.  Hope you don't hate sand, because this stuff is coarse, rough, irritating, and gets it everywhere.   

The Jundland wastes are not to be traveled lightly; but it doesn't seem to be bothering either of these squads as they hold back nothing to start the skirmish.  The dunes erupt as numerous different battles start taking place all over the landscape.  The four sages of Hyrule form up; but The McRibs do not take their power for granted for even a second.  The Anti-Monitor crushes Daruk along with his long, thin bladed Dusk Claymore, Fin Fang Foom does the same to Revali and his Topaz Rod, while the much smaller Urbosa and Mipha are taken out by The Spectre and Bizarro Superman.  The McRibs celebrate their victory; but do not realize that the sacrifice made by the sages was not just a selfless one; but a mission with purpose.  As the four sages die, they pass their powers on to Link, making him the best possible version of himself.

With his new found power, Link leads Zordon and Casey Jones against the 10 Harkonenen soldiers and despite being outnumbered make short work of the well trained Geidi Prime brutes.

Asura and Omega decide to take their eternal war to a different, cosmic realm of existence which worked out great for me, because I didn't know how to write either one of them.  

Master Hand answers the age old philosophical question by showing us the sound of one hand clapping a Green Martian, while Six Shot and the enormous Scorpononk join forces to take out the 3 Chattari Leviathon.  

Broly starts boxing with five good looking teenagers who decide that fisticuffs aren't enough to handle this cat, so they do declare it to be MORPHIN TIME.  The red, blue, black, pink, and yellow Rangers make for a much more formidable fighting squad against Broly, who still manages to keep them at bay.  The Power Rangers find that their melee weapons are not strong enough to take out Broly; so they drop back and forming their red sword, yellow spears, blue blades, black axe, and pink bow and arrows to create the Morphin Gun which falls into the hands of Jason the Red Ranger allowing him to combine their weapon's powers and blow Broly to bits.  

Sixshot and The Dinobots are working together to battle The Sentry and Dr. Fate over Beggar's Canyon, while crimson lightsabers ignite as the three Inquisitors bounce around an old krayt dragon skeleton to attack the two Sith Lords Malack and Tyrannus.  The two Inquisitorious members, follow their Grand Inquisitor leader exactly as planned; but their connection to The Force and their lightsaber swordsmanship both fall short of the two Sith Lords, as Count Dooku runs through the former Temple Guard and Grand Inquisitor, leaving the other two to fall to the Form 3 defense of Darth Malack.  Snarl delivers his triceratops horn directly through the chest of Dr. Fate; but The Sentry manages to blast himself into the center of Slag, not only extinguishing his Spark; but also using the dead dinobot as an enormous weapon to take out the wings of Swoop casuing him to crash down into the dunes.  It takes every bit of power he can muster for Grimlock, the leader of the Dinobots to weaken The Sentry with the laser from inside his massive jaw.  Grimlock finishes him off by bringing his jaw back closed, putting his razor sharp, Cybertronian metal teeth through the super hero.       

Azula and Tai Lee flank both sides of Doomsday, as Mai comes straight towards the grey, alien powerhouse behind the wheel of The Landmaster.  The Landmaster's lasers have little affect on Doomsday, so Mai attempts to leap over him in the Star Fox vehicle; but Doomsday leaps into the air and meets The Landmaster head on, smashing the vehicle into a cube and crushing Mai inside.  Azula and Tai Lee swiftly move in towards Doomsday, fighting in unison to avenge their friend; but the fire benders, despite their fighting prowess are no match for Doomsday who crushes both of their bodies, one in each hand.     

The Party Wagon runs right over Mr. Terrific, while Mikey and Raph turn their wrists sideways and bust some caps into the dome of Hourman with their Glocks.  Starman blasts the Party Wagon, blowing it sideways into the sand; but the Turtles leap out and take care of him and Dr. Midnight the old fashioned ninja way.  

Both squads regroup after the first round of battles and then quickly set back out to find their next skirmish.  Zordon breaks off from both The Power Rangers and his homeboy Link who he had previously been been fighting under and finds himself confronted with the much more powerful Spectre.  The five Power Rangers are also taken aback by the sheer size of Fin Fang Foom.  Bizarro Superman proves to be more than a handful as he destroys the Master of The Super Smash Bros. games, while Grimlock leads the remaining Dinobots and Sixshot against The Anti-Monitor.  The Ninja Turtles, sans their totalled van yell "Cowabunga" as they team up with their old buddy Casey Jones and Link to move against Dooku and his fellow Sith Lord Malack.  Doomsday, despite his size disadvantage, requests no help as he saunters slowly over to the Decepticon city known as Scorpononk.  

Zordon sees that he is no match for The Spectre; but before he allows himself to be defeated he casts The Spectre into the same frozen dimension in which he was previously a prisoner.  Sacrificing his own freedom to eliminate The Spectre from the match. 

With the sandy ground shaking under the massive feet of Fin Fang Foom, The Power Rangers realize that they are not in the current state of power to take on a foe of that size.  Thus it is time to call upon their Dino-Zords.  In order, they are called out by:

Zack:  MASTODON

Kimberly:  PTERADACTYL

Billy:  TRICERATOPS

Trini:  SABERTOOTH TIGER

Jason:  TYRANASAURUS

Fin Fang Foom now finds himself surrounded by five massive Dino-Zords; but none of them singularly as strong as the 17 Story tall Fin Fang Foom.  This battle rages on for some time, before the Power Ranger leader Jason calls upon his fellow Rangers to merge their Zords into one to create the Megazord.  Once merged, the massive Megazord starts punching the Foomster with some haymakers that could level the twin towers with enough force to actually knock building 7 down with them.  Fin still keeps ticking though.  And it isn't until the Megazord puts some space between them and Fang that they are able to charge up their ultimate blast weapon and put Fin Fang Foom out of commission.  

A pitched battle has ensued between the Ninja Turtles, who have emptied their Glocks to no avail against a pair of red lightsabers and are now back to the weapons Splinter learned em on.  They are joined by the sword and shield and hockey stick and baseball bat wielding duo of Link and Casey Jones in their battle against Lord Malack and Count Dooku.  Dooku dispatches Casey Jones, and Malack does the same to Donatello as the blood begins to shed in this skirmish.  Leo and Link give each other a nod, to acknowledge that this side quest is going to need a bit more intelligence to conquer these laser sword wielding combatants.  Raphael backs up Leo as Mikey backs Link.  The duos work together, yet independently as Leo and Raph engage Dooku and Link and Mikey to Malack.  Link and Malack match blades first, with Mikey searching for a spot to jump in with his nunchuks.  Malack is able to Force push Michelangelo with such ferocity that it sends the Turtle into a rock outcropping breaking his neck; but Link swings his Master Sword swiftly, finding an opening in The Sith Master's defense and relieving him of his head.  Raph rushes in too quickly with his Sai pairing in an attempt to catch Dooku off guard; but he underestimates the former Jedi Master and his excellence in The Form 2 style of swordplay.  Raph falls to his crimson blade, but Dooku is instantly met by his next opponent Leonardo.  Dooku catches Leo with a spin move and sends his lightsaber into the back of his shell.  Leo falls to the ground, but before Dooku can put him out of his misery, Link leaps into action and engages Dooku in a perfectly pitched battle of swords.  Dooku uses the Force to fling a large stone at Link.  The cheap shot takes Link off guard and is about to fall victim to Dooku's blade, when a katana blade suddenly appears in the back of The Count's head.  Leonardo, using his last breath, hurled his blade to save Link.  The Turtle survived just long enough to see the respectful nod from the eternally grateful Link, as he gets back on his motorcycle and searches for the next leg of this fight.  

The Anti-Monitor nearly exhausts his reality warping, cosmic powers and in so doing kills both the brontosaurus Transformer Sludge and the triceratops Snarl.  But Grimlock is able to tussle with the Anti-Monitor in a melee battle long enough for Sixshot to swoop in, in Jet mode at break neck speed, then turn into beast mode for a savage attack on the Anti-Monitor.  Sixshot then backflips away and transforms into tank mode to finish off the DC Baddie.  

Scorpononk, in his giant robot mode levels Doomsday with enough firepower to take out an entire starfleet.  He then brings his massive fists down on Doomsday; but it is still not enough to take on the one true killer of Superman.  Doomsday leaps from his sandy would-be grave and attacks Scorpononk.  The powerful, mutated monster known as Doomsday barrels himself directly through the chest of Scorpononk destroying his spark.  The head of Scorpononk, known as Lord Zarack transforms into his robot mode and calls out to his fellow Sigmaz to regroup for one final throwdown between his teammates and the two remaining powerhouses, standing tall for The McRibs.  

Lord Zarack attempts to take control of his team as The Sigmaz stand their ground against the onslaught that is coming.  But they are not in need of direction.  They know what to do and they know what is coming.  Zarack tells his team who is on the way.  

Jason, from inside the Megazord attempts to encourage his squad with the words: "There are only two of them".

But Link replies:  "And those two are enough".  

Doomsday and Bizarro Superman rush into the scene with their ignorance as their ally, for they feel no fear that might come inadvertantly from an educated mind.  Doomsday starts the battle by finishing the last one as he hurls a massive rock into the face of Lord Zarack.  The Megazord has exhausted its ultimate weapon; but that does not mean it is not still an unstoppable force.  Bizarro goes ham on the Megazord.  The evil, unintelligent version of Superman holds nothing back and unleashes a flurry of attacks on the combined Power Ranger force.  Like a killer bee to an unassuming, slow old man Bizarro zips to and fro.  Every sting causing brutal fatigue to Bizarro and unimaginable damage to the Megazord.  A giant sandstorm erupts as the Megazord implodes destroying the landscape and the Power Rangers that resided inside the shell of what was once the Megazord.  Grimlock and Sixshot have been battling ferociously with Doomsday throughout the duration of the previously described battle.  Sixshot, damaged almost beyond repair cannot force himself to transform out of his tank mode; but that is exactly what he wants to be in.  Sixshot unleashes a furious and continuous blast from his cannon towards Doomsday who continues to walk towards the Decepticon warrior through the energon bursts that could easily boil an entire lake.  Doomsday, now bleeding and limping fights through the blast and the pain to deliver the killing blow to Sixshot.  Grimlock, also battered from the fight swallows the near unconscious Doomsday whole causing the prehistoric Kryptonian to melt down physically in the gut of the Dinobot to ensure their mutual demise.  Bizarro, spent beyond any feeling of fatigue he had ever felt shows up at the scene to help in the destruction of the two Transformers; but finds that he is already to late.  He hears the roar of a motorcycle come up behind him as Link leaps off of it to perform an aerial attack on Bizarro.  Bizarro catches the Hyrulian Hero by his throat and throws him to the ground hard to kill him; but Mipha's grace overtakes Link as he returns to life, rises to the occasion, takes up The Master Sword and concludes this battle by separating Bizarro from his head.

The story we are all so familiar with: a hobbit’s journey, the rise of men, overcoming evil, and the destruction of the one ring. This may have been the case for the world we know, but forget not what might have occurred in universes different from ours. I have watched one where mankind failed and evil prevailed. Sauron achieved victory, and the one ring was his once again. How might that have happened, you may ask…

Sauron amassed an other worldly roster, made up of men not understood to Middle Earth. However, the Meat Suits gathered their own outsider forces to be the last stand against evil. It is they who march onto the black gate of Mordor. As they approach, the Underhills stand on the other side of the large doors as they slowly swing open. Once the gates have opened fully, the two armies yell in synchrony, “CHARGE!!” Here is where we bear witness to an old fashioned brawl between two charging forces.

It is the commons who meet first. Between the blue wizards, ents, easterlings, uruk-hai, fallen dwarves, and chi blockers, they make quick work of each other with the two Firelords burning those who remained. Then comes the foot soldiers… Snape sends fatal spells against the dwarves, but gives Deathstroke too much time to come in close enough for the kill. A combination of Isildur and Arwen retaliates with a swipe at Deathstroke’s head, finding their mark. But Freddy Kruegar’s mad weird fingers rip the two to shreds.

Meanwhile, the opposing Valar make council together discussing their sides of the battle. Lorien and Este are baffled that Aule and Yavanna would ever join Sauron’s forces. They disagree for a long period without achieving any sway in either direction. *cough sounds like the usual politics* After far too long of debating, they agree to both do nothing… classic. And with that, the Valar leave the fate of Middle Earth to itself and return to Valinor.

Next up from the Underhills are two desperately in need of anger management classes, Abomination and Hulk. They start going ham on the rest of the ground forces annihilating Treebeard, Kruegar, the firelords, and… the balrog from street fighter? Then they approach One Punch Man, thinking not very highly of him, of course. That is until Hulk is overtaken with surprise as Abomination is split in two after one swipe from the bald man. Hulk tries to recover and avenge, but One Punch Man gives a shot through Hulk that sends his heart to the sun while his body collapses to the ground.

Now One Punch Man shifts his gaze towards the dark lord. Sauron sees his intent and decides to make use of the many rings that are present in this battle. Suddenly, all these remaining ring bearers become filled with jealousy rage and start fighting amongst themselves. Amidst the fighting, One Punch Man is pulled away from Sauron to deal with the brawl that is ensuing. Radagast kills Nazgul #6, but is obliterated by Atrocitus, who is then destroyed by Kyle Rayner. Hal Jordan then overtakes the combined might of Kyle Rayner and Samwise, but it is Stewart who soon after ends Hal. One Punch Man becomes bored of this senseless battling and flies straight through Stewart.

Now again, the bald superhero makes his intent on Sauron. To him, it’s just another big bad that will take a meager punch to destroy, but special forces are at work in these lands. Sauron wields the ultimate power and stands in his home territory. It is for these reasons that one fail swoop from the mighty lord of the rings is able to decapitate One Punch Man.

Dolla 49 McRib Vs. The Sigmas

 Dolla 49 McRib is Doomsday, Bizarro Superman, Anti-Monitor, Steepenwolf w/ Anti-life equation, The JSA: The Spectre, Dr. Midnight, Hourman, Starman, & Mr. Terrific, Balrog #1-4, The 5th Brother, Nightbrother #1-10, Ultraman, Lady Deadpool, Chattari Leviathon #1-3, &  White Martian #1-6.

The Sigmas are The Witch King of Agmar, Melkor (Morgoth Bauglir), Smaug, Legolas, King Manwe, Varda, Tulkas, Nessa, Ancient Balrog #1-4, The Black Order: Proxima Midnight, Black Dwarf, Corvus Glaive, & Super Giant, Aatrox, & Malanea.

I myself, Joshatu the Magnificent flew here first class; but the two squads ready to do battle today both vigorously run into the battlefield.  We all know why of course, because one does not simply walk into Mordor.  Two elite squads stand before me today and this bout is certain to be not only a pitched competition; but a bloodbath as well.

   Morgoth, who is known by many names and titles, the Bauglir himself; but originally known as Melkor presides over his nation on the highest point of Mount Doom.  The McRibs know that in this particular setting he is King above all.  The creator of Sauron himself, the embodiment and the very root and creation of all that is evil.  He does not move from his spot, instead knowing that any challenger will have to come to him.  

  This match has mega brawl written all over it; so as the building leveling skirmishes all begin, let me run down who is brawling with whom.  Doomsday and Bizarro start making the slow strut up Mount Doom to take on the boss, Melkor himself; while Ultraman, who is leading the six white Martians in his wake attempts to move towards the other four Valor who unlike Melkor, did not choose the forces of evil in King Manwe, Varda, Tulkas, & Nessa.  Smaug is sent out by Melkor to battle with the Chattari Leviathons for dominance of the air; while Lady Deadpool and The Fifth Brother draw swords together in an effort to battle with Malanea.  The Balrogs who have grown large and powerful from centuries of greed are able to defeat the four smaller ancient Balrogs, but only #2 & 4 survive.  The JSA engages in a knock down, drag em out fight with The Black Order, and Steppenwolf tries to to step like a wolf towards Mordor native and the once great king of Angmar, the first Ringwraith, The Witch King himself.  Last but not least, Aatrox and The Anti-Monitor have both taken flight, choosing to have their battle out in the skies above.

  Left out from this were the ten Nightbrothers, who under orders from the defacto leader of the McRibs The Spectre are scouring the landscape of Mordor trying to find a vantage point against a squad who so seemingly has home field advantage on their side.  Nightbrother #7 raises his hand as a signal to his fellow Dathomirians that trouble is afoot.  But before they can take action Nightbrother #2 & 9 find arrows imbedded in their eye sockets and a large rock avalanche comes tumbling down on top of the other eight.  Legolas, he who caused the falling rock zone from above, gracefully leaps off the rocks and says under his breath:  "Let's see Gimli try to count that as one"....

  Lady Deadpool and The Fifth Brother of The Inquisitors move confidently towards Malanea.  "This time we take her together" Lady Deadpool says to the Star Wars character to break the fourth wall.  But they soon see that this sword battle is quite a pitched one despite Malanea being outnumbered two to one.  The three combatants go back and forth for quite some time, with the Fifth Brother at first being surprised that the mighty sword of Malanea was able to parry his lightsaber.  Malanea, strikes the katana blade of Lady Deadpool with ferocity, breaking the blade in two and then sends her sword into the chest of the alternate universe Wade Wilson.  Lady Deadpool falls to the ground in pain, as she can do nothing but watch her fellow McRibber The Fifth Brother be cut down by Malanea.  As Malanea begins to walk away in search of her next battle, she does not see Lady Deadpool, who has now recovered due to her accelerated healing factor pick up the strange hilted lightsaber of the Inquisitorious and uses it to relieve Malanea of her head.  

      Aatrox and The Anti-Monitor are ripping up the skies of Mordor so bad, that this time you can be certain that the Eagles will never fly in there again.  Both combatants grow to gargantuan sizes as the battle rages on.  The Anti-Monitor and Aatrox have a similar power scale; but a very different root to the power they possess.  The Anti-Monitor being more science based finds himself lacking in this magic based world and falls to the more mystical Aatrox with a brutal swipe of his massive halberd which cleaves the Anti-Monitor in two.  

  The Black Order and The Justice Society battle it out in that kind of Marvel movie: "This is what is going on in the background while we talk to the main characters sort of way".  But trust me when I tell you that the special affects are fantastic and there isn't any dumb Disney woke stuff going on, so it is awesome to watch.  Super Giant made sure to make some sort of ghey slur in his own alien language as he ripped Mr. Terrific's head off; but Dr. Midnight deadly smoke bombs the crap out of Corvus Glaive.  Proxima Midnight and Hourman join each other in death, while Black Dwarf thought his durability would stand up against the sonic crystal energy projection of Starman; but he was wrong.  Dr. Midnight and Starman do end up falling to the might of The Black Order; but The Spectre of JSA ends up being the last man standing in the skirmish.  

  Steppenwolf stands firm with his massive axe in hand and parries several of the initial blows dealt by The Witch King's lance; but eventually he falls to the might of the most powerful of the nine rings of men. 

   Smaug, despite being outnumbered and outsized by the huge Chattari Leviathons is able to use a combination of his razor sharp talons, whit, superior flight maneuverability, and fiery breath to kill all three of them.  Although this battle does leave the ancient dragon wounded and fatigued.   

    As Doomsday and Bizarro Superman move towards Melkor they are surprised to see him back away at the commencement of the skirmish; but simultaneously Ultraman and the six white martians are even more shocked to see what happens of The Valor before they have a true chance to attack.  Ultraman, flies in fast knowing that speed and raw power must be taken advantage of if he is to kill known users of magic which he knows himself to be vulnerable to.  But instead the four Valor let out a gasp of death as they find themselves consumed with flame, as their own teammate Melkor has stolen their life forces and their power along with it.  Manwe, Varda, Tulkas, and Nessa die in a massive burst of Mordor flame, flame hot enough to melt even the most famous rings of power.  This brutally hot explosion of dark magic, evil, malice, and fear consume Ultraman as well as all six white martians.  Melkor then lets out a massive scream as he is overcome by a thrust of power from the other four murdered Valor that even he is barely able to live through.  The power is too much for Melkor to contain in the middle of a battle that he redirects a potent blast of it directly into the chest of Bizarro Superman that rips the Kryptonian level powered creature to pieces.  Now, with Melkor still above his normal power level; but at a manageable spot, the true mountain shattering brawl between he and Doomsday begins.  

  Smaug, though wounded flies in as fast as his wings can muster towards the two remaining Balrogs, while The Spectre take to the air as well to do battle with Aatrox, flexing his mighty wings.  Legolas and Lady Deadpool, engage in a stealthy, hunting game of cat and mouse through the rock outcroppings, while The Witch King moves to join his master's master Melkor in his battle against the bloodlusted Doomsday.  

  These four epic battles rage on simultaneously, while it is difficult for even I to catch every detail.  Aatrox moves swiftly against The Spectre, delivering his magic halberd through The Ghostly Guardian; but instead of blocking the attack, The Spirit of Redemption known as The Spectre simply materializes both himself and his attacker Aatrox into a void of nothingness.  Smaug on the other hand is able to defeat not only one but both the remaining balrogs; but after this bout does eventually succumb to his myriad injuries.  

  Melkor is taking a beating from Doomsday; but the evil Valor keeps on ticking.  Lady Deadpool perches herself atop Mount Doom to try to gain a vantage point; but doesn't even know where to start or where she could possibly jump in to a fight of such powerhouses.  The Witch King rushes into the battle; but Doomsday turns his attention away from Melkor just for a second to bash in the skull of The Witch King.  Doomsday rips the mask from the face of the dying Witch King and turns toward Melkor to use the mask of Mordor as a weapon against the one who created its evil.  As Doomsday aims for the neck of Melkor, his opponent musters all of the evil strength he has and focuses it into his fists to deliver a brutal double handed punch to the top of Doomsday's head, at the exact same time as these simultaneous blows take place, causing Melkor and Doomsday to join each other in death a perfectly aimed elven arrow goes into the neck of the supposedly un-killable Lady Deadpool dropping her into the fiery chasm of Mordor.    

S15 W3 - NAZA vs The Washington Redskins

Naza is: Durins Bane (The Balrog of Moria), Nazgul #9 on his Fell Beast, Meriadoc Brandybuck, Ent Wives 1 and 2, Ugluk, Nega-Chin, Bronze Kneecap, Bull-E, Baby Shredder, and Dr Crocktopus, The Crimson Chin, Monkey D Luffy, Leather Face w OG Yellow Lantern Ring, The Sinister Twelve: (Carnage, Green Goblin, Venom, Doctor Octopus, Rhino, Sandman, Electro, Mysterio, Hobgoblin, Kraven, Vulture, Beetle), Annihilus, Avatar Kyoshi, Sub Zero, Velociraptor #25, and JRR Tolkien

Washington Redskins are: Power Girl, Yoda (w/ Dwarf Ring #4), Havoc, Wolverine, Darth Plagueis, Asajj Ventress, Mother Talzin, Larfleeze, Mandalore the Great (w/ The Darksaber), Theoden King, Scar, Devil Bat, Goldberry, andStar Wolf in a TIE/IN Interceptor.

Our story begins with a deafening roar as Nazgul #9 on his fell beast scours the rocky surface of Mordor surrounding Mount Doom. Below the Beast can see the results of the early battles. Mother Talzin and Asajj Ventress have teamed up to take out Ugluk and The Crimson Chin while Wolverine and Havoc have just taken out Nega-Chin, Bronze Kneecap, Bull-E, Baby Shredder and Dr Crocktopus. Asajj moves toward Sub-Zero who looks helplessly around looking for a drop of water somewhere to freeze. Alas, there is none and he is quickly dispatched. 

Lafleeze quickly duels with Leather Face but he is much more attuned to his orange lantern skillz takes care of the Face easily. He then begins to cast a protective aura around Darth Plagueis and fires orange energy to aid in his duel with Annihilus who has just killed Scar and Devil Bat. This tips the scales as the red saber finally penetrates the torso of the Marvel villain. Somehow, Merry has tamed the Velociraptor and is running it into battle. Larfleeze laughs and explodes the two with whatever magic power orange lanterns have. 

Avatar Kyosi and the Ent wives realize it is time to take control of the terrain around them and use it to their advantage. Kyoshi moves the rocks an puts up walls surrounding the two nightsisters and slowly crushes them between two boulders. The Ent Wives wrap their limbs around Havoc and Wolverine until their their guts squeeze out between the branches like playdoh. 

Darth Plageus launches himself toward the Ent Wives and chops them up with his lightsaber, their branches falling on the ground in pieces. Avatar Kyoshi is able to have the ground swallow up the sith lord but Larfleeze is able to dispatch of the mighty earth bender. 

Monkey D Luffy hears the beautiful song of Goldberry and as he goes towards her enchanting voice, Theoden runs him through for fun. 

“Listen up lads,” the King bellows. “There is a whole other wave waiting for us inside that mountain.” gesturing towards Mt. Doom with the Nazgul guarding the entrance. The Remaining Redskins charge into a final battle inside. The Nazgul, seeing the inspired troops, swoops down and snags their leader in its mighty claws and sails him up to drop him in the lava. Starwolf takes his shots at the Nazgul and lands a killing blow just as the enter the volcano. It is not enough to save Theoden however as he watches them all fall to their fiery grave. In an attempt to pull back up and out to get away from the heat, the controls in the TIE/IN Interceptor go on the fritz and Star wolf loses control of the vessel, crashing to his death as well. 

What awaits the remaining Redskins is Durins Bane and the Sinister Twelve. 

Balrog's released a burst of flames toward group and Larfleeze tries his hardest to play protector to shield the rest of the group. But he is tired and his energy is waning. Yoda, seeing this teams up with power girl to take on the Balrog so Larfleeze’s death is not wasted. Larfleeze is eventually consumed by the flames but as Power Girl and Yoda land the killing blows into the mighty beast, they turn to see they are alone as Mandalore the great and Goldberry were only able to turn the Sinister Twelve into the Sinister Eight. 

The old man puts down his pen and takes a long draw from his pipe. He closes the book and on the cover you can read the title: 

“The Poorly Informed Watcher and His Attempt at Writing a Decent Match” - by JRR Tolkien

The old man blows a smoke ring and looks right at you and says: “Some of you might think the Eight would have easily overpowered the Two. Some might think the opposite. But I’ve closed the book. And I am the only one who’s really here. This isn’t the tale of the two teams, no. But rather this story is about a watcher, sitting in a dark room right now because the day has now turned to night, who is done looking up characters and is getting hungry and has decided to take the easy way out. Is that fair? Who am I to say? I just wrote the story of the Watcher who wrote the story. Don’t blame me! That’s what the comments section is for!”
