A little about the Deadpool Corps

The last few days I have been reading Deadpool related comics and I have been updating myself on the Marvel Universe. Finally, I came to the latest Deadpool issue on my pile, Deadpool Corps (yes another corps related post on my blog, but at least this one is Marvel Universe related). 
So if you read Prelude to Deadpool Corps you know the badesst merc with a mouth in the whole multiverse of comics is putting a team together of Deadpools from other dimenssions. Up until now I love what they have done with Deadpool, he now has mission given to him by the contemplator to save the multiverse with a bunch of Deadpools.
One of the new characters on the DPCorps that has had the most time dedicated to him is Zombie Deadpool, who by the way, is just a head. So one of the main characters on Deadpool Corps is not even a whole character, he is not even alive. Headpool, just as Deadpool, has a wierd way of getting out of the wors situations without being destroyed. 
Next we can see Wanda Wilson, our Lady Deadpool. She has one hot body, except by the fact that it is as scarred as Deadpool´s body. On her universe Wanda is on the rebel side of the superhuman registration act and is commonly seen battling General America. 
In every happy and multiversal familly there is a kid, this one is no exception. But this kid is no usual kid, he is great with all kinds of weapons and his signature weapons are two lightsabers.
Last but not least, we have what every superhero should have but does not have because it would be far to much to keep track of, a dog. Just like the Batman Family has Ace the bat.hound, the Superman Family has Krypto the superdog, the X-men has Lockheed Kitty's Dragon, the Avatar has Appa the flying six legged bison and Mystery Inc. has Scooby-Doo, the Deadpool family now has Dogpool a dog with a healing factor due to experimentation.
And I almost forgot our original Wade Wilson from the Main Marvel Universe. As mentioned before, Deadpool is one of my favorite characters.

ESPN's Superhero vs Supervillian AllStar Matches Remake - Superman VS Thor

In the next couple of weeks I will make a fight by fight of ESPN's matches and see if I agree with them
(ESPN placed Supes vs Bat and Luthor vs Joker)
This means today we get to start with Superman VS Thor
Superman (Kal-El/Clark Kent): Our "Last Son of Krypton", the "Man of Steel", te "Big Blue Boy Scout". He is an alien form the destroyed planet Krypton which orbited a red sun. Superman is powered by the light of our yellow sun, he is essentially a solar battery. His powers include heat vision, freezing breath, xray vision, one of the highest level of superhuman invulnerability, strength and toughness, flight, supersenses and superspeed.
Thor (Thor Odinson): The "God of Thunder", the protector of Asgard. Thor is a protector god of Asgard, he is son of Odin, the King of Gods, and Gaea, the Earth Godess. Thor posseses the finest build among all gods, he is said to have the most strength and toughness between them, he also has some yet unknown powers that came from her mother's heritage. He wields the magic hammer Mjolnir which grants the wearer the physical capabilities of a god, flight, energy absorbtion and other enchantments. Thor also gains control over the weather when holding Mjolnir. Mjolnir can not be wielded by those unworthy. It is important to note that Superman has wielded the hammer before, at least for a moment. (JLA vs Avengers)
But enough of the characters. 3.. 2.. 1.. FIGHT!
For the fight, I will place my 2 cents on the Big Blue. Why? Well, supes can surelly withstand the damage, Hell he can even withsand being inside a Red Sun with Kryptonite. Big S is also able to catch Mjolnir, and wield it for enough time to win.
I know the Mjolnir argument seems lame. Why would Supes be able to wield Mjolnir, he is not worth it? Many would argue it is a bad writer that made it possible. But then again Captain America, Spider-man, Wonder Woman, even Deadpool have wielded it. So why wouldn't Superman be worthy? He is a complete Boyscout, he is by D&D definition a Lawful Good, the Paladin by excellence of the DC Universe. I think it is a fair bet to think that if someone should be worth it, it should be him.
Another thing Superman has against Thor is his speed, which is unmatched except by speedsters. Superman with his superhuman strength and speed could knock out any oponent before they knew what hit them.
Wait for the next fight Green Lantern vs Aquaman.
