VS

@jonny_anonymous: Pre New 52 or New 52 incarnations? Also I hear Valiant had some comics in the 90s so are 90s Valiant feats allowed?

@lvenger: Current versions, New 52 and Valiant Entertainment respectively.

New 52 Beetle hangs with GL's. Probably goes to him.

Though I've only ever read one issue of his New 52 series... where all he does is not get killed by Lanterns.

I don't think I know enough about him to really give him the win.

ive read every blue beetle (jaime reyes) comic.

Hes awesome. Idk anything about team 2 but im ready to help if im needed.

Team one.

Respect X-O Manowar - X-O Manowar - Comic Vine

bump

Team 1.

Ninjak>Green Arrow

X-O Manowar vs Blue Beetle is tough, but I'll give it to Beetle due to better offensive weaponry from what I've seen.

From exactly what little I know, I basically agree.

Pretty sure BB wins handily

Team 1 via Beetle

@darthaznable: You mean Team 1?

Seems a lot of people aren't reading up on XO-Manowar

@jonny_anonymous: From what I've read, he's no Green Lantern.

Scarabs were created to counter Green Lanterns and have a decent track record against them.

@boringperson: He can tank nukes sooo...

@jonny_anonymous: When's the last time a GL has even noticed a nuke?

And it's not like the nuke bounced off him like an Ex-Wife...

BB solos

GG

@boringperson: Have you ever even read XO?

Team 2, x-o armor > Beetle.

@jonny_anonymous: I try to keep current on all things Valiant, yes....

@boringperson: Then you should know that Shanara was created to kill planets

So Aric is going to use Shanhara to kill the planet to win this? Yeah...

I'm basing my opinion on Pre-52 Beetle because I have almost no exposure to what few appearances Blue Beetle even has in the New 52.

So, yes, I think Blue Beetle would beat Aric. At the very least, when Jaime gets knocked out the Scarab will take over and start using esoteric attacks and it's potent and varied scanning abilities to give Aric an incredibly annoying time.

I think @i_like_swords is a suitable user to call out on arguing why Ninjak could take Green Arrow in a fight. Street level is his specialty anyway.

As for X-O Manowar, maybe @fallschirmjager could argue for Arik over Jaimie Reyes though I'm not familiar with New 52 Blue Beetle.

Right and you think Aric can't do that as well? Are you sure you've read XO before?

Thanks for the callout bro.

My main argument for Ninjak beating Ollie would be superior melee ability. In terms of getting close, his agility is nothing to scoff at and he has plenty of distractions to keep Ollie's aim off, such as explosive and flashbang shuriken.

@i_like_swords: Well I'm no Valiant expert and you're the only one on here I know of who can debate Ninjak well :P

@jonny_anonymous: OK, you're just being insulting without even attempting to back it up.

Either post some scans showing definitively that Aric can take on a Green Lantern level opponent or stop goading.

At this point I'll debate from a Pre-52 Blue Beetle perspective.

@boringperson: I posted link to an entire respect thread also don't bother debating unless you are actually up to date with the characters

ive read all jaime reyes appearances. Id be open to discussing this if any of you want.

valiant is great but I don't think XO has what it takes to fight BB, especially if Jaime knows what he is doing

Can it, talk to @sodamyat and stop embarrassing yourself. Either make an argument for your obviously stilted thread or continue to feel superior while vigorously pointing at a link.

Regardless, keep me out of it.

Ninjak is more skilled and cunning than Green Arrow and XO Manowar is way more powerful than Blue Beetle. Team Valiant are the clear winners to me

Beetle.....
