Magneto vs Nova (Richard Rider)

Can Magneto take down Nova ?

Nope.

I don't know much about Nova, but from what I do know that would be one heck of a fight.

What is "nova energy"? Is it anything scientific at all?

Right now, given Nova's abilities to absorb energy, along with super speed...I think he takes this one. Magneto has shown himself able to control gravitons in the past, but it is not his primary ability. Nova absorbs whatever Magneto throws at him, and Magneto does not have full control over what Nova throws at him.

How is Magneto gonna do that when Nova is faster then Magneto?

I say Magneto wins. He creates a force field then sucks the iron out of Nova.

Good Point

I say Nova.

he doesn't have to target him exactly,he can create a field with a radius to catch him,and pull the iron out of him.

Nova

hell just warp through him

Nova :-)

Gotta go with Nova.  Mags is getting old, lol.

I'm going with Magneto.

This would be a cool battle. Electromagnetism and gravity are both basic forces that make up the universe. If Magneto took away those mental blocks of his, this would be amazing to watch, but as it stands, Nova will just simply be too much for him.

sorry mags is just out classed nova would tear him a new one

But Mags knew Northstar was there didnt he? Or was that a random encounter? "

He did not know that he was there.    Magneto can do this:   Affecting objects thousands of miles away (Uncanny X-Men #150)  and this.    Sensing objects and attacks he cannot see. (X-Men Vol. 2 #2) "

going with the soybeans on this one.

Haven't read this one personally, but apparently he crossed a large magellanic cloud in 12 minutes, which is trillions of times the speed of light

Annihilus vs. Nova...lets hope Mags doesn't like long speeches or anything...

Magneto

Nova Prime ftw

@Floopay:

That Large Magellanic Cloud thing, I posted that on another thread...

DID I JUST GET REFERENCED BY FLOOPAY?

Oh yeah, and Nova wins by the way.

Yes, I am 100% quoting you, and no, that is not sarcasm.

As I said, I haven't read it personally, but I'll take your word for it.

Which Nova? Nova Prime, or Regular Nova. Anyways Either version of Nova would win his feats are far much greater than that of Magneto;s.

@Floopay:

The cloud itself is like 180k lightyears from Earth, and the Large Magellanic Cloud is... well large so when you take into account the speed he was going at you are already into huge numbers; and then Hala is supposed to lie the other side of said Cloud so it's pretty ridiculous when you think about the fact he did it in twelve minutes.

It's not entirely accurate based on no real accurate scale for the Cloud or where Hala is but we can only see 20k light years into the cloud itself so who knows just how big it is...

nova wins.

Sorry to bump an ancient thread with a maybe dumb question but is there any reason Mags can't just use his power to remove Nova's helmet?

Thanks

Bump for the above question.

Magneto should win. The helmet hasn't shown any resistance to magnetic manipulation.
