Wow. That's what I get for not keeping up with D.C. The Quintessence? That's nuts'o power. Kind of like Galactus' heralds, kind of not. Yeah, I guess that would be enough to humble Krypton's Last Son.

Yeah, it all comes down to which game, and ultimately, the point-of-view of whoever made said game. You'd almost have to give him uber-high Agility in MSHRPG because that is what all the speedsters get in MSHRPG. It's like, you get better dexterity in D.C. Mayfair because you have great speed, but in MSHRPG you need to get great Agility in order to handle your speed. Weird. It's ki

I use this site as a reference for DC characters:
Dont' worry about learning that game's rules, just compare the stats of different characters that you are familiar with.
It seems that they are very evenly matched, according to the site. I'd give Bane Remarkable Strength, but that would be the only stat he would have better than Batman.

This is kind of oblique to your point but, one thing that bugs me is how much stock fans put in "official" stats. Marvel kinda' pulled this "50 ton...100 ton...etc." thing out of its arse. It shouldn't be that complicated to stat a character: read some comics, model some stats, rinse and repeat. Thats it. If a character does some stuff that seems "out of charact

Stat-ing anything from a Vertigo line is tricky business, and every character write-up will have some inconsistency with a given panel in a given book. You could explain the whole thing away by saying he did a level 50 spell prior to the beheading. But, lets just stop for a moment. We are talking about the Lucifer beheading the Archangel Michael in order to create a new dimension for himself. Do

Total tangent here, but looking through that site's stats Swamp Thing is smarter than anything on Earth! I knew he was more than "D.C.'s Man-Thing" but he leaves Batman and Lex Luthor in the dust! He's smarter than Brainiac :-o .

I hope this site never goes down. Someone should archive before we lose it.
The fact that, aside from his physical stats, he ties or beats EVERYONE would be grounds to give him Class Whatever-You-Want in his RIP scores, Popularity, Resources, etc. If you notice he has "Sorcery: 50". I may be mistaken, but sorcery is as close as you'll get to MSHRPG's Reality Manipulation (I

God I love Illyria. Amy Acker went up ten points in my book after this season. Anyway, pre-drained Illyria only lasted for about two (three?) episodes. There was a wide gap between how she talked about herself and what she demonstrated. All we got to see was:

Lucifer is on par with the Endless, which puts him well out of reach of any PC and most NPC's for that matter. I'm not familiar enough to comment on the other characters, but Lucifer is the Lucifer, so he should be equal to or better than Mephisto. Search for old mentions of the Endless, Morpheus, etc. I remember them being brought up a long time ago here.
