It’s a cold, drizzly evening in Gotham and yet she finds herself sweating. “How can I hunt a bat in the dark?” she asks herself, knowing full well that the environment gives the Caped Crusader the advantage. Then she sees him, perched high atop a commercial tower; he seems as still as stone, a gargoyle. She makes her approach, slowly, cautiously; aware of every step, breath, and heartbeat. (more…)

Batman vs. Elektra
Monday, March 2nd, 2009Spiderman vs. Cyclops
Monday, March 2nd, 2009Cyclops’ optic blast lights up the night and swats Spiderman from the sky, causing him to tumble to the ground. He quickly shakes it off and takes to the sky once more, knowing he has to approach this fight with caution. Peter Parker can ill afford to face this X-Man head on, he’s just too powerful. Darting from rooftop to rooftop, Spidey uses his speed and agility to keep Summers at bay. (more…)
Wolverine vs. Green Goblin
Monday, March 2nd, 2009Wolverine draws in a deep breath of stale New York air; he knows the Goblin can’t be far away. Staring out at the cityscape, he bides his time, recovering, healing…there’s no hurry; eventually Norman Osborn will come to him. (more…)
Terminator vs. Joker
Wednesday, February 25th, 2009His maniacal laughter pierces the night and yet the robot is unfazed. Much of the cyborg’s face and torso has been burned away by the Joker’s acid but it pushes on. This being does not fit any of the psychological profiles that the T-800 has in its sub-routines; his weapons are gimmicky and nonsensical, his madness is without method. (more…)
T-1000 vs. Aquaman
Wednesday, February 25th, 2009The bipedal machine known as T-1000 is relentless. His target: Arthur Curry, a.k.a. Aquaman. The meta-human had retreated into the ocean, his haven, where he thought he could offer up the best fight. Undeterred, the machine wades into the sea, mercilessly stalking; but as he submerged the sea life swarmed around him, filling his field of vision. Crustaceans, mammals, and fish alike were cut down by the robot in a vain attempt to protect their brother, their father, their leader. The T-1000 pressed ever forward, deeper into the crushing black. (more…)
Wonder Woman vs. Daredevil
Wednesday, February 25th, 2009Matt Murdock had been on the run for hours, darting in and out of alleys. He knew Hell’s Kitchen better than anyone but it wasn’t enough. This woman…Diana, she was too fast, too strong; too much to handle face-to-face. He hoped that the darkness would help him hide until he could formulate a plan on how to defeat this Amazon. His only hope was to use her remarkable abilities against her, but how? (more…)
Hulk vs Leonardo
Wednesday, February 25th, 2009Hulk stalked down another alley and screamed in primal frustration. How could a turtle be so damn sneaky? Many leagues of searching were already behind the Hulk which began with a rather pointless attempt at finding the ninja in his hometown sewers. The hours turned into days and slowly Hulk became less and less concerned and began to doubt whether his combatant really existed. Yet, deep down he knew the turtle was near, he could feel it. Then just as Hulk had given up all hope of finding his challenger, he heard the shift of gravel on a roof top above. (more…)
