It’s the holidays, which means things are kind of slow around the Major Spoilers HQ, and with the Matthew and Zach fighting over who got the better holiday gift, we might as well do another fighty-fighty poll of the week.

Iron man is 2 legit 2 quit!!!!!
Two words… Exposed flesh.
While Cyborg is allot more machine than man, at least on the outside, the exterior is only mostly metal. All Tony stark need do is Introduce some sort of flesh eating bacteria on ol’ Vic stone, and he can take him out. In the meantime, The Iron Man Armour is airtight, leaving him quite safe.
My son asked me this the other day, we came to the conclusion that it would be Iron Man. Lots of suite options, and the boy concluded that due to Jarvis (he watches and loves the movies) he could hack cyborg and shut him down. If tony gets emp’d the robotics go down he is still a threat if cyborg gets emp’d he is dead.
Leaving Jarvis out of the question, since Cyborg would, if he got his hands on Tony’s armor, be able to probe inside and hack Jarvis’s systems, their power levels are approximately the same, and while the armor protects Tony completely, while Cyborg still has a lot of vulnerable areas exposed. Also, Tony has been fighting for decades longer than Cyborg, so I think that end the end, the lack of experience and vulnerable areas would lead to Cyborg’s ultimate defeat.
No being a big fan of Cyborg but understanding how OP the DC universe operates, I picked him over Iron Man.
a) Iron Man flew a nucular warhead into another universe and lived to tell the tale.
b) He is portrayed by Robert Downey jr.
c) Cyborg never flew a nucular warhead into another universe and lived to tell the tale.
d) Also he is portrayed by Lee Thompson Young.
Nuff said.
I’m a DC guy, and even I know the winner in this battle is Iron Man… Hands down…. Sorry…
Prime Universe Iron Man, not Ultimates or Downey’s though.
