User blog:Monkey Doctor 33/MD's S4 Returns! Bodolf the Black vs Solomon Grundy (Earth 2)



Heya folks, it's MD 33 and once again I return from the dead in order to bring you guys a battle that I will GUARANTEE have a written battle. It has been a long time... you know what, let's just skip that part and get in the main stuffs. So, I know that this year has been very kind to us pop culture, comics, and games lovers. And damn, have I missed many things when I'm away from this wiki, as well as those in the media. Such as Mr. Jon Snow apparently being Aegon Targaryen, the real Captain America beating the crap out of the Hydra Cap, Destiny 2 getting released, Battlefield 1 returns from its long boring hiatus to bring out In the Name of the Tsar (Model 1900 rocks!), yadda yadda yadda. So yea folks, let's just jump into this battle, shall we?

Bodolf the Black, a powerful viking chieftain who once worshipped Thor for victories in battle, until he was betrayed by the Thunder God and was turned into a Hulk-like beast by his new patron god, Loki!

Vs

Solomon Grundy (Earth 2), the New 52's alternative incarnation of everybody's favorite zombie, and the archenemy to Earth's Green Lantern and the avatar of the embodiment of decay, the Grey!

In this battle between titanic brutes...

Who is deadliest?

Bodolf the Black


"Bodolf fears no god! Bodolf is the strongest on all of Midgard!"

- Bodolf the Black Bodolf the Black is a character from the 2016 Marvel Comics series, the Mighty Thor. Introduced as a literal Viking Hulk, Bodolf was once the leader of a ferocious viking tribe in the late ninth century. His thirst for blood and glory was unquenchable, and he defeated many of his opponents. The secret to the viking's success was that he prayed to the God of Thunder, Thor, who had even aided him directly in battle. But as time passed by, Bodolf quickly refused to worship Thor, relying on his own instead. That was until Thor aided a rival army, robbing the viking of his power and fame. Bodolf soon turned to the mischief god, Loki, who sent him on a quest. His quest eventually ended with him slaying a dragon and drinking its blood, triggering a mystical transformation that transformed him to a powerful being with black skin. He opposed Thor, defeating him in their first encounter and regained his power. However, when Bodolf lost control of his newfound powers, he faced Thor once again and ended up being thrown into a pit. He later escaped, but was cursed with the responsibility to try and suppress his rage.

Solomon Grundy (Earth 2)


"... Born again on Monday..."

- Solomon Grundy (Earth 2) Solomon Grundy (Earth 2) is an alternate version of the zombie supervillain of the same name, introduced in the New 52 and the universe of Earth 2. In life, Grundy was a hard-working man who had a wife named Pinney Grundy and a newborn son. He was a poor man and sought the best for his family by working in a slaughterhouse at around the year of 1898. One day, Pinney was sexually assaulted by Solomon's boss and committed suicide. Overcome by rage and his boss' casual manner after such incident, he massacred his boss and his innocent co-workers with a knife. He committed suicide after that, but a mysterious force named the Grey, the embodiment of decay, resurrected him. He later resurfaced in the modern world, searching for the Jade Knight and Avatar of the Green, the Green Lantern, fighting the heroes Flash, Atom, Hawkgirl, and the Lantern himself in the process. He later ended up being thrown to the moon by Alan Scott, but managed to return crashing down to Earth. He later united with the other avatars of the Parliament of Earth in trying to repel the forces of Apokolips from ravaging Earth.

Powers and Abilities
Note: This format is different, but this might be familiar with y'all.

X-Factors

 * For training, Bodolf takes this. Obviously, Bodolf is better trained than Solomon Grundy. While Bodolf's intelligence is slightly hampered in his Hulk form, he still remembered the ways of the vikings, however. In life, Grundy was all but an innocent butcher and has little to no training at all in combat. Well, he did massacre the entire populace of his butcher store but they're all innocent except the boss. Plus, none of them expected his massacre coming.
 * For experience, it's equal. I nearly gave this one to Bodolf again because of his past war experiences as a viking chieftain, leading his men in many raids. But in this battle, he's facing against a superhuman warrior who's possibly as deadly or deadlier than him. And by far, the only superhuman he fought was a young Thor before he got the Mjolnir. But it should be noted that young Thor's no slouch at all, as this young Thor's also the same person that fended off Gorr, the God Butcher in the past who managed to kill two slavic gods, including Chernabog. Oh, and a native american god too. And I almost forgot, the same young Thor that fought against Apocalypse (yes, him) too! Grundy is similar to Bodolf's problem, but also an opposite. Grundy has completely no experience in battling other men like the other vikings Bodolf used to face, but in turn he faced more superhumans such as the Green Lantern (Alan Scott), Hawkgirl, Flash (Jay Garrick), Atom (Al Pratt), and even the four Furies of Apokolips alongside the other avatars of the Parliaments of Earth, which also include Lantern himself.
 * For intelligence, Grundy takes this slightly. Both of these folks aren't super geniuses when it comes to intellect. While in this battle Bodolf retains a part of his mind to draw his experience from, Grundy is actually still as smart as a person (kind of like, above average) and is capable of speeches. Bodolf on the other hand, is limited to simple words. Imagine Savage Hulk's speech in the past. It's similar to that.
 * For powers, Grundy takes this. No doubt, these folks are ultra-powerful. But what makes Grundy takes the edge at the end of the day is his variety of powers. Bodolf is indeed one tough-ass mofo with strength that clearly matches the Bruce Banner Hulk himself... well, the classic version that is. But his powers are limited to his physicality. Grundy possesses physicality that may not be as OK as the Viking Hulk, but he has way more powers up his sleeves. From the ability to control plants and decaying any living things that come upon him to his near-Wolverine-level healing factor. And no I'm serious in this one.
 * For fighting skills, Bodolf takes this immediately. While Grundy can chain his powers altogether to create some interesting combos (sorry for the vocabulary, fighting game influence), remember what I said in the training section? Bodolf still knows how to fight the viking way and hell, even the first time he fought Thor he outright dominated him without letting him resist. In his early days as Viking Hulk too, he still can fight with swords and axes, so that's something.
