[1]” One of the more pointless exercises that geeks engage in is hypothetical fights between heros, stuff like Batman vs. Superman [2] (my thought: if caught by surprise and taken out in the first ten minutes, the fight goes to Superman, otherwise, Batman wipes the floor with Supes) or Alien vs. Predator [3] (Predator, because in Predator 2 [4] (which I would think would count as canon [5]) you see an alien skull mount on the wall of the Predator's ship), each side presenting mind-numbing details of support for their side of the argument, and everybody has an opinion one way or the other. theferrett [6] recently asked for possible match-ups between fictional characters [7] and the most amusing (or most surprising) match-up was James Tiberius Kirk vs. Bugs Bunny [8]. And I think the arguments presented an inarguable result: Bugs wins [9].
