RUMBLE: League of Extraordinary Gentlemen versus X-Men
To determine which team of superheroes is better (and thereby which movie franchise is better) I have captured Professor X, Wolverine, Rogue, Cyclops, Storm, and Ice-Man, from the X-Men, as well as Alan Quartermain, Skinner (he was hard to catch), The Vampire Lady (Sorry, but your name was not nearly memorable enough), Captain Nemo, Dr. Jekyll (and I suppose Mr. Hyde), and Tom Sawyer. Both teams have been alerted to the rules of this competition, which are as follows. The teams will both be released from their cages for a battle to the death, the team that wins may continue their franchise, the team that loses will have it ended. BEGIN! Quartermain begins the match with a trash-talking line: We can take theshe mutantsh, gentlemen. Captain Nemo immediately rushes Wolverine, exclaiming: Watch out for my blade. Wolverine deftly backflips to parry the blow, while still in midair, growls, and snarls: I've got two. His razor sharp claws burst to extension, to the horror of the all onlookers, who are too impressed with the brawl to fight their own targets. The fighting continues with both combatants matching each other in skill and ferocity, when Captain Nemo's blade gets caught in his huge, groaty (thanks to Elise for coining that term) beard. Wolverine finishes Nemo quickly and shouts to the others to begin fighting. Storm takes the advice first, and quickly sends a lightning bolt at Dr. Jekyll, frying the man as he transforms into Mr. Hyde. As soon as Dr. Jekell (or I suppose now Mr. Hyde) completes his transformation, a squad of copyright police materializes to arrest him for stealing the concept and trademark transformation of The Hulk. Mr. Hyde shouts that he existed first. Although this is true, explain the copyright police, you are so old that you are public domain. Mr. Hyde is teleported from the arena. The Vampire Lady lunges at Rogue, biting her neck. Rogue steals her power, and immediately destroys the Vampire Lady. Tom Sawyer fortunately finds and Indian Cave and escapes the carnage of the melee. Quartermain is taking aim with Matilda at Ice-Man, but as he pulls the trigger, he finds that the barrel of the rifle is incased with ice. Damnation, exclaims Quartermain, as he is frozen solid. Finally, Professor X decides to unleash a blast of psychic wrath and destroys Skinners mind. The X-Men have won the rumble, the score 6-0. I'm sorry League, but you also received a one star review, so your franchise must end. X-Men, you can go on and make many more movies. Good luck, and if you add Gambit to the cast, everyone will love you.
