No, Rogue steals super powers and memories, but not necessarily all their fighting skills and techniques, and not permanently unless she basically puts them in a coma or kills them. Plus, she needs bare skin-to-skin contact. From my understanding, Task Master can basically observe someone fighting and then utilize their style. He has a copy of Captain America's shield and use it almost as effectively, for instance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically it's "Photographic reflexes" so he can mimic any move, whoever might pull them off, but he's been through a few different iterations and has evolved somewhat but it seems he can do anything that whoever he's up against can do. 1 The Ghost Slaying Axe. The very best there is. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every motherspectre in the room, accept no substitutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyhawke Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Master Roshi vs Jiren in the tournament of power in the manga might fit the bill? Sky-Hawke: Rad/WP Brute Alts galore. So...soooo many alts. Originally Pinnacle Server, then Indomitable and now Excelsior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had a great role and was central to the plots of several seasons. I will have to revisit it, I guess. She just seemed too out of control for me, but another looksie is always worth it 🙂 /e poofgone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok this is a different version of her, packing a lot of fear and an horrendous childhood into the mix - giving her some real depth. She wasn't simply psycho, she was pretty broken. 1 The Ghost Slaying Axe. The very best there is. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every motherspectre in the room, accept no substitutes.

cranebump Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 (edited) Are any of the in-game signature characters /SR tanks? (Curious) Only SR tank I ever ran much of was from the slot machine random powerset challenge. Katana/SR. It was fun but…weird… Edited October 6, 2023 by cranebump I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc. Just search the AE mish list for my sig @cranebump.

(Curious) Most of them were created several years before SR was proliferated over to tanks (Issue 21, the "Freedom"/FTP rebranding), so probably not. Maybe one of the characters created for the failed Korean launch? 1 Formerly of Virtue, now on Excelsior: Ace of Spades | Adamant Eve | Arch-Rival | The Bee | Blackbelt | Citizen Arcane | Core | Ctrl Alt Defeat | Daddy Longlegs | Diamant | Freak Accident | Galactrix | Great White Shark Heavy Machinery | Highway Star | The Howl | Inter-Galactica | Ion Maiden | Knockout Artist | Krakatoa | Night's Templar | The Pact | Paroled McDonald | Virtual Boy | Volcaniac | White Widow | Yucatan And my most recent 50, Cyber-Security (Shield Defense/Street Justice tanker, 16 March 2024) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean Wally West perceives Attoseconds so a punch to him is like taking a whole year for it to reach it's destination. More like a billion+ of years of relative time (assuming the punch took a fraction of a second). Approximently as many attoseconds pass in one second as seconds have passed since the big bang. Even for comics I've always had a hard time buying that one... Edited October 6, 2023 by MirrorDarkly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashington Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 (edited) The Mask (At least the Jim Carrey Version) could dogde bullets like a Character in a Cartoon.

ZemX Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 As @Andreah pointed out, the idea of an MMO Tanker doesn't really fit into the comic book genre because it involves gathering all aggro up and then surviving it while the rest of the team (ideally) is ignored by the bad guys. It would look ridiculous in a comic book, movie, or TV show. Super team battles are all over the place with everybody attacking AND being attacked. Nobody is "tanking". Any character you would call a "tank" (or brute) in the comics would be someone, as the name suggests, who either absorbs or deflects damage. Not someone who dodges it. And that was really in line with the original powersets given to Tankers in this game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiax Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 It is probably a bit of a stretch and not a comic character, but the a character that comes to mind who might be a SR tank is Neo. But that might be reaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
