If they had stealthy sneaked up on him without him 'feeling it' ahead I suppose.

So really they have to fight those without 'powers', just those with enhanced strength maybe?

Not even that. They're just really good ninjas, raised with the benefit of their isolation and conditioning since near birth aiding their training (as opposed to, you know, a guy who takes a ninjitsu class 5 times a week while living a regular life on the side). And there happens to be four of them you have to worry about.

Yeah this is true, I was thinking about things like them fighting Superman for instance but then Donnie would find his weakness so upper hand gone.

Doubtful. He can fix the sh** out of a water heater, though. Superman would utterly destroy them with or without preparation on their part.

Oh... you probably mean Donatello in the nonsense universes, where he can MacGuyver anything and is smarter than anyone at MIT? Yeah, he'd probably come up with something impossible and defeat Superman, using super advanced tech skills he shouldn't have with technology that doesn't exist from materials he wouldn't have on hand.

Fights that might be interesting? I dunno... the Turtles fighting, like, Deathstroke and Deadshot if they were to team up, with Ravager. Or something.

that's the dude.

Also, the title is fictional fighters so I've gone off a little.

Even if Donnie finds his weakness I doubt that's enough to beat Supes keep in mind Supes fought dozens of people who use kryptonite and he does work around it from time to time.

Isolation doesn't really aide in your training in fact it hinders it especially if your a ninja(aka someone who mostly use the environments to their advantage). Sure in terms of teamwork and skills they are great but either put them in a terrain thats vastly different from the sewers or have them fight someone with combat experiance, I guarantee you their isolation will hurt them.

I'd like to know WHERE this fight between the TMNT universe and the Archer universe takes place.

If it's in the TMNT universe, then I think all four turtles stand a chance against Pam.

If it takes place in the Archer universe, then someone is sleeping with Pam.

I think they could take her, if for no other reason than we really don't see her do hand to hand combat all that much. She's a snob about her firebending, and I think of someone were able to actually get close enough to her, and punch her in the face, I think she'd crumble.

Someway, somehow...probably Casey. Even he wouldn't be sure how he got roped into it.

It would be a matter of figuring out where to get in at a weak spot, especially with her throwing fire at them. Hence why it might take a couple times with her. It's one thing to be shot at with lasers and those...arm missile things that IDW Krang had in his suit, but we're talking actual fire. With lightning!

I always assumed when fighting individually the turtles could really only best your standard melee-type fighters. But together they gain Batman's superpower of "always finding a way to win."

You guys seriously underestimate Pam. She's usually with more than one partner.

After having beaten the crap out of all of them.

The real question is, which Turtle(s) end up with Pam's epic poem tattooed across their carapace after a night of blackout debauchery?

Either Mikey or Raph, Mikey being like the above said a hedonist and Raph because he will probably last the longest when fighting her.

Also new one, Lana Kane vs Karai standard equipment

Lana. Karai doesn't stand a chance against those barbells Lana calls hands.

Not really that knowledgeable about other fictional fighters, but gonna say that with the right plan, nearly anybody.


How do you tattoo a carapace, that's like permanent marker at best. But if no one tells him/them (whoever it might be) about it, then I guess it's just as good for quite a while.

Honestly, I could see a fight with the Z fighters from DBZ just ending with them realizing they don’t have to fight each other. Leo would love finding people interested in the art of fighting even if it isn’t ninjitsu, Donatello and Bulma would probably cure cancer and Michelangelo would probably be all “All the meditation stuff can let you FLY?! Dude, teach me!”

As for actual fights, them versus the Gargoyles could be interesting but I kind of see that going the same way as the Z fighters—realizing they’re on the same side.

Azula could be interesting actually as I don’t think bending ability necessarily means she would automatically win. It would make it a hard match up though unless they caught her during an eclipse.
