Star Wars What if these people joined the Rebellion.

[Bear Ribs]

Oh, I was going to show him taking on Jedi Masters and the like.
But obviously I have to Prove they were good....
When this is the only time we see them?
I can show Vader doing tons of stuff. Plenty that make him able to take on chief, Kenobi, batman, and Cap all at once. Gotta give me some time. I have roughly 6 years worth of comics to go through

Well yeah, of course you need to prove they're good. That's what proving your points is, supplying proof of your position.

I mean, self-evidently there's some reason he didn't plow through Red and Gold squadrons at Yavin the way he did the pilots in that comic. One obvious answer, especially given the no-name pilots and lack of time for them to get decent ones after losing everybody Yavin and Scarif, is that he was facing a squadron of inexperienced nobodies with no officers or training who were easy to shoot down.

Ultimately if you show any feats that are well above what we see him do in the movies, you're going to need to have a good explanation for why he performed so poorly in the movies by comparison.

Honestly I'm getting a bit of flashbacks to the days of Stardestroyer.net where it was just "common knowledge" that every single blaster bolt and turbolaser shot in the movies was dialed down to 0.01% of available power for no apparent reason, to accommodate crazy feats from some obscure comic so they could claim a Star Destroyer could one-shot a Culture ROU.

Here is hom vs the Soldiers and some Y wings using some debris.

Spoiler

here we have him lifting giant ass things of metal and stone

And taking out A wings with them as they were going in for a bombing run.

For a scan posted earlier...

What he did to that large army lord posted awhile ago.
and some mroe radio comms from what was happening

More to follow of him version some none mooks

I am also going through his comics in order so, it may take me awhile

 

[Zachowon]

Here are him version someone, and as well as taking out a shuttle

Spoiler

here we have him taking on a grevious wanna be.

Said wanna be is built to be a replacement to vader. There are a total of 4, with one being a set of twins. The first one is not remarkable, but this guy is better thne others. First real fight he has with a lightsaber wielder early on in comics.

Only reason he was distracted was because it was a major force sensative area.

It does so how durable his armor is even from behind

if you are wondering why he isnt just using the force, because the point is to show he doesnt need the force to beat the wanna bes.

Here we can see he isnt really taking the fight seriously as he casually lays out a plan to Aphra

When he decides enough is enough he casually flings the general back

basically, he does nto have time to contuine the dual and it is easier just to have Aphra hit the guy with a vehicle and kills him later when he is trapped.

Here we see him disable a shuttle using the force

So as expected, you're pulling on feats he may not be able to replicate because he's on top of a force nexus and thus powered up while doing so. I kinda figured you'd go for that.

'Course since Han had no problem ambushing him in the Battle of Yavin, so we know sneaking up on Vader doesn't actually take any special circumstances.

He was DISTRACTED because of the nexus, it did not increase his power at all....

 

[Bassoe]

That wouldn't stop him, he has them shut down, and iirc even EMPs didn't work

They would still overload in a targeted EMP. Aka blow apart on him.

Not quite.

Dr. Silo used a kill switch in Vader's armor to shut down all it's systems, and Vader kept his body going on pure rage even with all his electrical bits shut off.

So EMP'ing him is not going to slow him as much as simply trapping him with forcefields would.

Though I agree that Cortana and R2 have way more ability to screw with Vader than most of the meatbags.

I too have watched batinthesun's interpretation of this fight.

 

[Zachowon]

More feats. First batch is him vs twin mechanical Jedi. Do not have force but still a threat.

Spoiler

The brother then pushes the sister into thew lava ending that fight


Here we are going to have Vader face Voidegazer and a Cyberimplanted Rancor.

 

[Lord Sovereign]

I too have watched batinthesun's interpretation of this fight.

Oh Christ, watching that gave me a stroke. Batman is not a better duelist than Darth Vader, end of discussion.

 

[Sailor.X]

Oh Christ, watching that gave me a stroke. Batman is not a better duelist than Darth Vader, end of discussion.

Superman knocking Vader on his ass was quite cathartic.

 

[Lord Sovereign]

Superman knocking Vader on his ass was quite cathartic.

Sure.

I mean, I love Vader, but the Empire capturing Superman is a bit...is bollocks the right word?
