A.K.A.: Lady The Scottish Play
Hometown: Scotland
Known For: Cleaning spots
Strength: Inspiring weak men into action
Weakness: Guilt

VS

Name: Wonder Woman
A.K.A.: Diana of Themyscira; Diana Prince
Hometown: Themyscira

Very strong female character against another strong female lead. Lady M is passionate and always looking out for herself and for her husband. She isn't afraid to get her hands dirty and push her boundaries beyond the acceptable. Wonder Woman stands up for justice and truth, and between her invisible jet and lasso of truth she would not fall for any of Lady M's platitudes or pushy plots. This round goes to Wonder Woman

Conclusion: Lady Macbeth v Wonder Woman

Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Bayside: Mickey Mouse v. Freddy Krueger




Name: Mickey Mouse
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Disneyland
Known For: Making millions of people happy.
Strength: Being cute
Weakness: Not too smart
Wins: - 

VS

Name: Freddy Krueger
A.K.A.:  -
Hometown: Springwood
Known For: Killing teens in their sleep
Strength: Knows your every weakness
Weakness: Once you stop believing in him, he no longer has power.
Wins: - 

Mickey Mouse is a great character, he is happy-go-lucky and never wants to hurt anyone. He is the mascot of a multi-million dollar, international company, with the forces that come with it behind him. Freddy Krueger is the "son of a hundred maniacs" and is a child killer. His no-holds bar fighting technique guarantees that Freddy would take down the mouse in just a few seconds. But Mickey is the "final girl" and the only surviving character because of his innocence and his ability to turn dreams into wishes. 

Conclusion: Mickey Mouse v Freddy Krueger





Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Bayside: Buffy Summers v. Sabrina Spellman



Name: Buffy Summers
A.K.A.: The Slayer; The Chosen One
Hometown: Sunnydale
Known For: Dyeing, twice
Strength: Super strong, super flexible, prophetic dreams
Weakness: Snogging with vampires and caring too much about her friends
Wins: - 

VS

Name: Sabrina Spellman
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Westbridge
Known For: Using magic to solve problems
Strength: Great friend
Weakness: Always uses magic to solve problems
Wins: - 

Buffy Summers is the longest active slayer in history. Her friends are one of her greatest weapons, but she does have a soft spot for souled vampires and she never hurts humans (at least never chooses to). Sabrina is a walking mistake, she has great friends, but does rotten things to them, usually by mistake because she uses magic to solve her problems, then once doing things the mortal way, she can make them right. We've already seen Buffy v. a witch - twice. When it was her friend, she tried not to hurt her, but when it was a monster of the week, Buffy took her down. Buffy wins, unless Sabrina can charm her with her quirkiness to befriend her. Buffy wins.

Conclusion: Buffy Summers v Sabrina Spellman





Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Magic Kingdom: Tommy Oliver v. Katniss Everdeen


Name: Tommy Oliver

A.K.A.: Green Ranger, White Ranger, Red Zeo Ranger, Red Turbo Ranger, Black Dino Thunder Ranger
Hometown: Angel Grove, California
Known For:  Being the epic 6th ranger
Strength: Leadership and martial arts
Weakness: Late, a bit headstrong
Wins: - 

VS



Name: Katniss Everdeen
A.K.A.: The Girl on Fire
Hometown: District 12
Known For: Causing a rebellion
Strength: Hunting
Weakness: Emotionless
Wins: - 

Tommy was the hero of our collective childhood, he was evil, had an awesome zord, was good, lost his powers, came back again and we loved him. But he could only just barely outsmart or outfight his main opponent. Katniss is great at archery and has no problem killing a person, but it does eventually drive her mad. In a fight to the death, Tommy, as a power ranger, has much more arsenal at his disposal and could take her down, but he wouldn't kill a human. Katniss, beaten to a bloody pulp, would muster the strength to take Tommy out.

Conclusion: Tommy v. Katniss




Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Hogwarts: Carl Grimes v. Elphaba Throppe




Name: Carl Grimes
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Zombie Infested Georgia
Known For: Wandering off
Strength: Cares a lot for his father
Weakness: Aging quicker than time allows
Wins: - 

VS




Name: Elphaba Throppe
A.K.A.: The Wicked Witch of the West
Hometown: Quadling Country, Oz
Known For: Being green
Strength: Can read a special magic book
Weakness: Spells go wrong
Wins: - 

Carl is a playful child for most of his tenure on Walking Dead, and makes careless mistakes that causes trouble for all of the people in his "family." Elphaba also makes careless mistakes, but does them to take down a wizard. In a fight to the death, unless he has a bucket of water handy, this round goes to Elphaba.

Conclusion: Carl v. Elphaba




Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Metropolis: Kermit the Frog v. Fa Mulan



Name: Kermit the Frog
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Hollywood
Known For: Being green
Strength: Very friendly
Weakness: Short temper
Wins: - 

VS



Name: Fa Mulan
A.K.A.: Ping
Hometown: China
Known For: Cross dressing
Strength: Caring for her family
Weakness: Doesn't look like a boy
Wins: - 

Kermit is the lovable frog that has had an on-again-off-again relationship with a pig for several decades. He is the glue that holds the Muppets together, but sometimes throws temper tantrums. And like Mulan he has a good singing voice. Mulan saved her country (and her father) by masquerading as a man to fight in the army. And even after she is found out and dishonored, she still defends the Emperor. Mulan is very brave and even gets the guy in the end. She wins.  

Conclusion: Kermit the Frog v Fa Mulan






Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Metropolis: Dr. Sheldon Cooper v. Billy Cranston


Name: Dr. Sheldon Cooper
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Passadena
Known For: Being slightly autistic
Strength: Very smart
Weakness: Crazily ritualistic with poor social skills
Wins: - 

VS


Name: Billy Cranston
A.K.A.: Blue Power Ranger
Hometown: Angel Grove
Known For: Building zords
Strength: Speed, agility, strength, and super smarts
Weakness: Afraid of fish, lacks social skills
Wins: - 

Genius versus genius! Sheldon and Billy have a lot of the same traits, they are super smart, ill-understood by their friends, not many friends but those who are forced upon them by circumstances. in a battle of brains, they are tied. In a battle of brawn, Billy would win, but unless Sheldon was doing something truly evil (not outside the realm of reality) Billy would not fight. So this one comes down to attractiveness. Billy, hands down. 

Conclusion: Dr. Sheldon Cooper v Billy Cranston






Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Magic Kingdom: Lisa Simpson v. Han Solo


Name: Lisa Simpson

A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Springfield
Known For: Being Level Headed
Strength: Super smart when compared to every other citizen in her world
Weakness: Social awkward
Wins: - 

VS


Name: Han Solo
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Corillia
Known For: The Original Smolder
Strength: Shoots first
Weakness: Asks questions later
Wins: - 

Having been in the 2nd grade for over 20 years, Lisa has had so many different personalities that she might even be a little crazy. Han shot first, got the princess, and saved the galaxy a long time ago. Both stand up for what they believe in, but Han is way more epic.

Conclusion: Lisa Simpson v. Han Solo






Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Magic Kingdom: Gollum v. Wolfman


Name: Gollum
A.K.A.: Smeagol
Hometown: Gladden Fields
Known For: Being creepy
Strength: Wants the ring
Weakness: Crazy
Wins: - 

VS

Name: Wolfman
A.K.A.: Larry Talbot
Hometown: Llanwelly
Known For: Midnight raids
Strength: Wolf like powers
Weakness: Only activated by the light of the moon
Wins: - 

Gollum is crazy and Wolfman is impulsive. I think the stars would have to align for them to fight. Wolfman would have to have the ring and it would have to be a full moon. If it is just a battle of awesomeness, then Gollum is way more awesome, despite his craziness, he still is a major antagonist for the heroes of his story. 

Conclusion: Gollum v Wolfman






Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Bayside: Zack Morris v. Peter Pan




Name: Zack Morris
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Bayside
Known For: Being a hunky teenage heart-throb
Strength: Scheming money out of his friends.
Weakness: The ladies
Wins: - 

VS


Name: Peter Pan
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Never Never Land
Known For: Not growing up
Strength: Fearless
Weakness: Impulsive
Wins: - 

Zack Morris connives his way out of ever single problem he puts himself into. He is mean to his friends, and is a womanizing playboy. Peter Pan has a complex named after him, he willingly throws himself into unneeded battles, and does a horrible job at "mothering" his lost boys. Not a lot of good seems to come from either of these boys, but when push comes to shove, Zack is going to win because what girl (or gay boy) of the 90's didn't want their own Zack Morris.
Conclusion: Zack Morris v Peter Pan

Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Hogwarts: Mary Poppins v. Santa Claus



Name: Mary Poppins
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Cloud above London
Known For: Inventing words
Strength: Changing people's lives
Weakness: Getting emotionally attached
Wins: - 

VS




Name: Santa Claus
A.K.A.: St. Nick, Papa Noel, etc.
Hometown: North Pole
Known For: Giving children presents
Strength:  Magical travel
Weakness: Never actually told a kid he was naughty
Wins: - 

This is another tough round. Both of these characters love and care for/about children, but only one can move onto round two. Mary has strange magic that seems only limited by her imagination, she scolds bad children, and has a nifty song to move the job along. Santa has years of experience, hundreds of holiday specials, songs for everything he does, and gives freaking iPods! Santa is way more epic than Mary (come back when you have your own holiday).

Conclusion: Mary Poppins v. Santa Claus

Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Hogwarts: Big Bird v. Shaggy Rogers



Name: Big Bird
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Sesame Street
Known For: His child naiveté
Strength: Imagination and counting to 10
Weakness: Friend to all
Wins: - 

VS



Name: Shaggy Rogers
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Coolsville
Known For: Solving mysteries
Strength: Great friend
Weakness: Always scared and paranoid
Wins: - 

Big Bird counts to 10 and knows his ABC's he is innocent and is always willing to help out a friend. Though he still has an imaginary friend, he is helpful. Shaggy on the other hand is always high. He's so high, and scared, that the second he sees Big Bird, he'd run away in fright. Letting Bird win this round.

Conclusion: Big Bird v Shaggy

Epic Battle of Epicness: Round 1: Metropolis: Ron Weasley v. Scooby Doo


Name: Ron Weasley
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: The Burrow
Known For: Being Ginger
Strength: Being a strong friend, killer chess skills
Weakness: Snogging with skanky girls
Wins: - 

VS


Name: Scooby Doo
A.K.A.: -
Hometown: Coolsville
Known For: Solving mysteries
Strength: Great friend
Weakness: Always hungry and scared
Wins: - 

Ron is an awesome character, he is very real: lazy, horny, funny. He wins a chess game against Dame Maggie Smith's best game. He helps save the world from the worst wizard in history. And despite his poor upbringing, he doesn't let it get him down (mostly) and becomes the every man hero. Scooby on the other hand, eats a lot and runs away from men pretending to be ghosts. But who didn't want to be Shaggy with a talking dog side kick (well actually I wanted to be Velma, but that's another story). Scooby blunders his way through every mystery, as does Ron. This round of Epicness goes to Scooby, because he and Ron are very similar, but is a talking dog.

Conclusion: Ron Weasley v Scooby Doo
