The Marvel Cinematic Universe vs the Live Action Sinister Six
Posted: Tue Oct 16, 2018 6:33 am
And since I'm in a Spider-Man mood, I thought I'd pit villains who have made up the Sinister Six in live action films against various MCU heroes, and see how they stack up.
For these fights, we'll be using the Six as portrayed by:
Dr. Octopus (Spider-Man 2)
Sandman (Spider-Man 3)
The Lizard (The Amazing Spider-Man 1)
Rhino (The Amazing Spider-Man 2)
Electro (Amazing Spider-Man 2)
The Vulture (Spider-Man: Homecoming)
Assume they're comfortable enough to work together as a unit without getting in each others way, or at least not anymore than the average supervillain group. The fights will start at that unfinished skyscraper at the end of Spider-Man 3, but can potentially spread out to the surrounding city.
The heroes facing the villains will be:
Fight 1 - The Second Generation Avengers: Captain America, Black Widow, Vision, Scarlet Witch, War Machine and the Falcon. The team that took over after Hulk, Thor, Iron Man and Hawkeye stepped down from active Avengering (because lets face it, with Thor and Hulk on the team, the Sinister Six are screwed).
Fight 2 - Cap's Resistance: Captain America, Scarlet Witch, Bucky, Falcon, Hawkeye and Ant-Man. The team Cap assembled during Civil War. They lose some of their heavy hitters, but gain more skill and a replacement powerhouse with Ant-Man's giant form.
Fight 3 - The Guardians of the Galaxy: Star-Lord, Gammora, Drax, Mantis, Rocket and Groot (teenager) decide to come collect a bounty on the Six. Can they take down this squad of bad guys?
Fight 4 - Iron Man shows up in his Bleeding Edge nano-tech suit and tries to stop the Six all by himself. Can he do it?
Fight 5 - Extended Defenders. Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Colleen Wing and the Punisher. Danny and Colleen both have access to the Iron Fist for this fight. If the six of them can't win on their own, throw in Dr. Strange, given his status as an actual Defender.
Might include other fights as I think of them, but that's good enough to get things going.
