'Skeleton BattleRoyale'[]
Battle of the spooky scary skeletons who live to strike fear in others! Who will be the king?
Wiz: If there’s one mascot for fear, it’s the skeleton. And these guys are perfect examples of that.
Boomstick: Ghost Rider, the highway haunter
W: Dry Bowser, the Undead Koopa King
B: Scorpion, Mortal Kombat’s hot-headed hurt machine
W: Skeletor, He-Man’s archenemy
B: Sans, the Genocide boss from Undertale
W: And Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King
B: He’s Wiz and I’m Boomstick
W: And it’s our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... A Death Battle
*CLANG*
Ghost Rider[]
W: Ghost Rider was born Johnny Blaze, and was orphaned at a young age.
B: But he was adopted by his father's mentor, Crash Bandicoot.
W: Simpson, Boomstick.
B: Right. So Crash eventually got a terminal illness, and Johnny had only one option.
W: Go to the hospital, start a charity, or accept death?
B: Hell no! He was going to sell his soul to Satan. Or, in Marvel's case, Mephisto.
W: Unfortunately for Johnny, it was for nothing. Crash died in a new stunt shortly after.
B: And Mephisto would've claimed Johnny's soul, too, if it weren't for that meddling sis.
W: Johnny's adoptive sister used a ritual to protect Johnny's soul from being stolen.
B: But not from being attached to one of Mephisto's enemies, Zarathos
W: With Zarathos, Johnny gained superhuman strength, speed, durability, and regeneration.
B: Wiz! Shhh… You can’t say ‘regeneration’, or you’ll summon him.
W: Who is- Ohhh, you mean Deadp-
B: DON’T SAY HIS NAME!
W: Sorry.
B: Anyways, he also got a sweet new ride, the Hellcycle, to go with his new hellfire chains. Oh, and just his hellfire.
W: Both of these can be controlled by Ghost Rider's mind, and both are made of pure hellfire.
B: But if all of this fails, he can go full demon.
W: When Zarathos takes over, he gets a super boost on everything. He can easily keep up with people as powerful as Galactus in this state.
B: And Zarathos seems to be immune to reality warping
W: We see this when he fights Mephisto in his own realm, where Mephisto has seemingly infinite power.
B: Not to mention, he's pretty much invincible.
W: Not quite completely invincible. He can be harmed by the God who created him. And yes, that’s a capital G.
B: Or weapons forged by said God. Thor’s hammer is a god-forged weapon, but not a God-forged weapon. This means that it fails to kill the Spirit of Vengeance.
W: These are probably his only weaknesses. And his strengths easily counter these.
B: All of these strengths show why Ghost Rider is a force to fear.
W: Watch out, sinners. The Spirit of Vengeance is on his way.
Ghost Rider: "Sorry, all out of mercy."
CLANG
Dry Bowser[]
W: Bowser. King of the Koopas, and enemy of Mario
B: This dragon turtle... thing has been around since 1985, and has only gotten more powerful.
W: He grew from around 7 feet tall to over 9 feet.
B: What medication did he use, and where can I get it?
W: Why do you need it?
B: For my… muscles.
W: Suuuure. But in 2006, with the release of New Super Mario Bros, something changed for Mario. Bowser fell into a pool of lava,
B: For the millionth time.
W: And Dry Bowser was born.
B: He's basically the same as Bowser, but if there was a Halloween DLC costume.
W: He has no skin, muscles, fat, and is way more powerful. His fire is blue, instead of orange, and he is immune to all fire damage.
B: Plus, he can throw bones! Where have I heard that before?
Sans: From me, of course!
W: Hey! Get out of here! Your introduction's not until later.
Sans: Fine. I'll just leave, since I'm obviously getting under your SKIN!
B: Wow. the worst pun ever coming from the person with the worst DB record.
(Sans opens his mouth, closes it, and leaves.)
B: Anyways, Dry Bowser is also a bit faster than Bowser, due to having no muscle, fat, or skin. It’s not that noticeable, because he’s still pretty slow. Do you think that’s why he go-karts? To feel the speed of moving more than 5 miles an hour?
W: Maybe. Dry Bowser still retains normal Bowser's magic and durability, however, as well as his intelligence.
B: What intelligence?
W: ...Okay, that was good.
(They high five)
B: This still meant no trouble for Mario, though. He still saved the princess, because Bowser pulled a Doofenshmirtz and built a self-destruct switch into his castle.
Yzma: Why do we even even have that lever?
B: It’s like Nintendo is targeting their games towards children, or something. Wait…
W: But in classic Nintendo villain fashion, he kept returning to wreak havoc.
B: And he was still pretty good at it.
W: These abilities, and the flaws, show why Dry Bowser is Mario's deadliest enemy.
B: I don't think he i-
Dry Bowsser: "GRAAAAAAGH!"
CLANG
Scorpion[]
W: Hanzo Hasashi was a small boy when he decided to study the martial arts.
B: He wanted to join the clan to live up to the general, his father, Shirai Ryu.
W: And he did this very well. He quickly rose to fame with his great skills.
B: But then an evil guy named Quan Chi wanted his help with a mission.
W: He wanted the Map of the Elements, and Hanzo would get it for him.
B: Spoiler Alert, he didn't get it.
W: Hanzo was stopped, and killed, by the warrior Sub Zero.
B: So then as his soul was burning in the Netherrealm, Quan Chi killed Scorpion's clan.
W: But Quan Chi resurrected Hanzo, turning him into Scorpion.
B: And that whole 'Hey, I killed your entire family!' thing? Well, Chi blamed it on Sub-Zero.
W: Scorpion swore revenge on Sub-Zero, and the two became rivals.
B: And his new powers would definitely help him win that rivalry!
W: Yes. These powers included increased speed, strength, and durability. He also has control over hellfire.
B: Not to mention chains he can control... with his mind... Wait a second-
W: Don’t forget about his regeneration.
B: Geez, if this guy had a bike, there would have been some serious lawsuits.
W: And he gains even more power the longer he stays in the Netherrealm.
B: Wait, so he gets a boost on his already insane powers? Why isn’t there an anime about this guy?
W: These powers combined with his previous skills in martial arts.
B: This made him perfect for the Mortal Kombat tournament, which he joined.
W: First as a villain, now as an anti-hero.
W: He did it partially because he wanted to best Sub-Zero.
B: And he did a kick-ass job at it, too. He’s defeated Sub-Zero time and time again. And for one reason.
W: What’s that?
B: Fire beats ice, Wiz. Geez, play Pokemon some time.
W: He eventually made peace with Sub-Zero over tea, like he’s Princess Peach or something.
B: However, the contestants of the Kombat still cower in fear when their opponent is Scorpion.
Scorpion: "Hanzo Hasashi is dead. I am Scorpion."
CLANG
Skeletor[]
W: A long time ago, there were two brothers, son of King Miro
B: One was Randor, the other was Keldor.
W: And when Keldor was set to inherit the throne, Miro gave it to Randor.
B: That guy's a dick. Why'd he do that?
W: Well, Keldor was only half human. His father was human, but his mother was not.
B: So, in anger, he launched an attack on Randor.
W: After a long battle, Keldor threw acid in a desperate attempt to finish the battle.
B: But then Randor deflected it with his shield, right back at Keldor. I'm pretty sure that's not how acid works, but okay.
W: His face burning, Keldor called for a retreat. While back at his lair, he demanded Hordak save his life.
B: And Hordak managed to save about 85% of him.
W: Yes. Keldor's face had burned away, leaving only a skull.
B: And from then on he became... SKELETOR!!!!
W: He's not even a real skeleton, though. He's still got flesh on the rest of his body.
B: It's a cool name, Wiz. Shut up. He's still in the battle royale.
W: And how does he move his skull? There’s no muscle.
B: I’m assuming it’s his evil magic.
W: And why do his eyes sometimes glow-
B: Stop.
W: Fine. Well, this disfigurement only made him more determined to conquer the universe, for some reason.
B: And he had plenty of powers, mainly magic, to do it. His magic grants him superhuman strength, speed, and durability.
W: He's shown to be easily on par with He-Man and She-Ra on numerous occasions.
B: He's also got a wide arsenal of weapons, mainly his staff and sword.
W: But he also has axes, chains, shields, and the skills to use them.
B: Geez, another skeleton that uses chains?
W: Probably unintentionally, though.
B: Alright. He's the perfect counter to He-Man, and he's shown it time and time again.
W: But he's also really egotistical and arrogant, which usually leads to his downfall.
B: Well, Wiz, if you've got power like he does, then you would also be bragging about it.
W: And this power shows why Skeletor is the bane of He-Man
Skeletor: "I am the Alpha and the Omega."
CLANG
Sans[]
Sans: FINALLY! (Cue Music)
W: In the monster world, there was some peace and prosperity, following the Monster v Human War
B: Until a human showed up and wrecked it.
W: This human was Frisk.
B: Yeah, and Frisk had multiple options on what to do next. Frisk could not kill anyone, getting the 'Pacifist' ending.
W: The mixed, ‘Neutral’ ending.
B: Or the cooler sounding, ‘GENOCIDE’ ending
W: And at the end of this Genocide ending, Frisk meets-
Sans: ME!!!
B: Yes. Frisk meets the memelord himself, Sans the skeleton.
W: And usually gets absolutely destroyed around 30 times in a row before winning.
B: That's because Sans has many powers, including controlling bones and souls.
W: He also uses his lasers, called Gaster Blasters and telekinesis to win.
Sans: I also have super reflexes.
B: Yes. Since Sans has zero calcium, he goes down easily in one hit.
W: But he certainly makes up for this with his dodging ability.
B: He also has Karma, which is more powerful if its target has committed a lot of sins.
W: Which is probably why you only fight him in the route where you kill the most monsters.
B: Yeah. I’d destroy him in a Pacifist Route.
W: Then it wouldn’t be a Pacifist Route.
B: …
W: But his most annoying ability is his fourth-wall awareness and terrible puns.
Sans: Hey! Some people find them HUM-
B: Dont. Even. Dare.
W: Well, these many abilities certainly add more challenge to the game.
B: I don’t know if that was needed, though. I’m still struggling to battle Froggit.
W: Seriously?
B: Yeah. Is that bad?
W: Nope. Not at all. Everyone struggles with that one.
B: Anyways, back to Sans. But his bone attacks are also weak, doing only 1 damage
W: It doesn't matter, when he hits you a bunch of times in a row
B: It’s simple math. 1+1=2, and 2+1+1+1…
W: We get it, Boomstick.
B: These abilities show that even if Sans is quite annoying-
Sans: I'm still no BONEhead!
B: DAMN IT!
(Boomstick chases after Sans)
CLANG
Jack Skellington[]
B: Halloween. The holiday of October.
W: Where children and adults dress up to get candy.
B: It rivals Christmas for 2nd best holiday.
W: Which-
B: FOURTH OF JULY, BABY! AMERICAAAAAA! (Blasts shotgun)
W: Anyways, each holiday has a town designated to it.
B: And in Halloween Town, one figure stands out.
W: That figure is Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King
B: And he does a good job at being scary. He has many acts, like setting himself on fire, removing his head, and more.
W: He can do this, because Jack is pretty much invincible.
B: Not completely, though. He is similar to Deadp-... Marvel Deathstroke, in that he can be killed by complete disintegration.
W: If this happens, the Pumpkin King is no more.
B: But this is a challenge to do, because Jack is pretty powerful.
W: He has insanely fast reflexes, can control severed body parts, and can even shoot fire.
B: Another skeleton that shoots fire? Seriously!?
W: He also has a weapon called the Soul Robber.
B: Wow, so he can steal souls?
W: Surprisingly and disappointingly, no. It's really just a shapeshifting green goo. It can become a wide array of weapons, such as a whip, grappling hook, and more.
B:: Well, that's less cool. But Jack makes up for it with his other powers.
W: He is a master of scaring people, for one.
B: He's also pretty good at fighting, for someone who does very little of it.
W: He also has wide magical abilities, like fire, ice, lightning, and more.
B: But he doesn’t use most of these to scare people. That would totally be the pro strat, though.
W: He did use them to defend Halloween Town from Oogie Boogie.
B: THREE TIMES!
W: Yes. He helped Santa in the movie, again in the 2004 game ‘Oogie’s Revenge’, and yet again in the prequel game ‘Pumpkin King’
B: So we now have more Nightmare Before Christmas video games than movies?
W: Sadly, yes.
B: Aww…
W: These powers and skills all show why people should fear the Pumpkin King.
Jack: "I'm a master of fright, a demon of light..."
(CLANG)
Battle[]
We open to a dark field, with short grass across it. One figure is walking down it, minding his own business without a care in the world. This figure is Sans.
Then, across the field, we see a flash of light. Sans seems a bit troubled, but not quite afraid just yet.
After the flash is gone, we see a large figure standing there, in a menacing pose.
???: “I am Skeletor, conqueror of the universe! You will bow before my fee-”
He stops, as he is interrupted by Sans’s snoring.
Skeletor: “You arrogant fool! I will make sure you never sleep again!”
???: “I believe myself to be pretty good at that.”
Skeletor turns around, seeing a tall figure walking towards him.
???: “Do you feel fear? It’s a rhetorical question of course, because I will make you.”
Skeletor: “Who are you?”
???: ”I am the Pumpkin King. Call me Jack.”
As Jack walks towards Skeletor, they see another portal open in the ground. Two, actually, both looking like a ring of flame.
From one of the portals, Scorpion appears. He has his kunai in his hand, and a sword on his belt.
From the other portal, Ghost Rider jumps out (on his hellcycle of course) and glares at Skeletor.
GR: “I will personally escort your soul to hell!”
Skeletor: “Then you will taste the steel of my blade!”
They both draw their weapons.
Sans: “Two’s company, three’s a crowd, but five is pushing it.”
Scorpion: ”How ‘bout six?” he says, looking up.
When the others look up, they see a very large skeleton falling to the ground.
When he lands with a large thud, he roars into the sky, blue fire spewing from his mouth.
Sans: “Is there anyone here who doesn’t have a bone to pick with me?” He winks at the camera.
There is the sound of five skeletal facepalms happening at once.
Scorpion: “I’m gonna kill you for that.”
Sans: “Good luck, pal” His eyes go black as he says, “You’ll need it.”
As GR charges at Skeletor, Scorpion charges at Sans.
With this, Dry Bowser charges at Jack.
Jack: “Your funeral.” He charges back at Bowser.
FIGHT!
Dry Bowser swung his claws at Jack, who quickly backflipped over them. Taking out his Soul Robber, he whipped Dry Bowser in the face.
Dry Bowser simply laughed at the whip doing nothing.
Jack: “What’s this?”
Dry Bowser then roared fire at Jack, who jumped clean over it, landing well behind Dry Bowser. He then turned the Soul Robber into a sword, slashing at Dry Bowser’s shell.
Dry Bowser slowly turned around, slashing at Jack again. He actually managed to slice Jack in two, with his legs launching to the side.
Jack: “Oh, no. This is bad.” he said, as he was now a small stump.
Dry Bowser readied his fire, but was kicked in the face by Jack’s lower half.
Jack then put himself back together while Dry Bowser was recovering from the kick.
Jack then breathed fire of his own, watching as Dry Bowser simply walked through it.
Jack: “What’s this!?”
Dry Bowser then breathed his blue fire, with Jack catching on fire this time.
Jack: “I’ve done this before, buddy. You can't burn-”
Jack fell to the ground, realizing what had happened. He looked down, as he was slowly turning to ash.
Jack: “No. NO! NOOOOO! Sally...”
He was then nothing but dust in the grass.
Skeletons left: 5
The next brawlers to collide are Scorpion and Sans. Well, they didn’t quite collide. Sans had dodged Scorpion’s charge, and he had fallen to the ground. Sans proceeded to hit Scorpion with a rapid succession of bones, one right after the other. Then the final bone was swung upwards, colliding with Scorpion’s chin.
Scorpion was launched to the opposite side of the field, landing hard on his back. Sans took the opportunity to hit Scorpion with five GasterBlaster shots. As soon as Scorpion got up, he was launched backwards again, leaving a large hole in his chest when the lasers ceased.
Sans: “Welp. That settles that.” and walked towards the other fighters.
But suddenly, he heard some whizzing behind him. He dodged right before the kunai would have stabbed his back.
Scorpion: “GET OVER HERE!”
Sans: “If you want it so badly.” Sans rode on a Gaster Blaster towards Scorpion.
Right before it reached him, it fired another laser.
Scorpion leaped over the laser, launching the kunai into the cannon.
When he landed behind Sans, he yanked on the chain. This flipped the entire cannon over, launching Sans off.
Luckily, Sans landed softly on his feet.
Sans: “Hey, pal. You’re really yanking on my chain here.”
Scorpion: “BURN IN HELL!”
Scorpion shoots fire, which Sans easily dodges. Sans then called on more bones, which hovered above his head before impaling Scorpion.
Scorpion then pulled one of the bones out, and proceeded to swing it sideways at Sans.
Easily dodging again, Sans swung another bone upwards, nearly hitting Scorpion. But Scorpion had teleported before the collision, and he was nowhere to be seen.
Sans: “Where are ya, pal?” Sweat was forming on his forehead “I hope you didn’t give up.”
Scorpion: “I didn’t.” Scorpion was behind Sans, throwing his kunai again.
Sans barely dodged this time, seeing his life before his eyes.
Sans (to himself): “I eat too much ketchup.”
He stood again, facing his rival. He stuck out his hand, but Scorpion had teleported again.
Instinctively looking behind him, he saw nothing.
Scorpion: “Guess again, fool!” Yelling on his way down, he swung his sword down at Sans.
Sans dodged again, watching his shirt rip. When Scorpion reached the ground, he quickly swung his sword up.
Sans was slashed right through the chest, ketchup spilling everywhere.
Sans: “Well, it seems I SWORDa lost.” he says, making his last pun as he turned to dust.
Skeletons left: 4
As Ghost Rider and Skeletor continued to brawl, both were attacked from behind. As Skeletor turned and saw Scorpion, Ghost Rider turned and saw Dry Bowser.
Scorpion: “So, you’re the guy Shao Khan was talking about.”
Skeletor got up and faced his new foe.
Ghost Rider turned to face the skeletal dragon, and slashed the ground with his chain.
Both of the brawlers engaged with their new opponents.
Ghost Rider was jabbing at Dry Bowser’s stomach, with little success at doing any major damage.
Dry Bowser quickly swung his claws at Ghost Rider’s head, and GR was quickly knocked over.
As Dry Bowser walked over to the skeleton that was lying on the ground, Ghost Rider quickly whipped out his hellfire chains, wrapping them around Dry Bowser’s neck.
He slowly pulled in Dry Bowser, as Dry Bowser was pulling as hard as he could to stay away.
He suddenly had an idea. He let go of his pulling, and he was launched towards Ghost Rider. Before he collided, however, he made a portal to his castle. Ghost Rider quickly called his bike, and followed Dry Bowser through the portal.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As those two were playing tug-of-war, Scorpion was desperately trying to avoid death by Skeletor’s hand. Skeletor was slicing his blade, inching his way towards a fatal blow.
Scorpion was doing all sorts of flips and splits to avoid the sword, but tripped and fell on a particularly tricky maneuver.
Skeletor saw the opportunity, and brought his blade downwards for a stab. Scorpion barely parried it with his katana, and Skeletor was left stabbing the ground next to Scorpion.
Scorpion got up, and went to decapitate Skeletor. Skeletor released his grip on his sword, instead using his dark magic to telekinetically grab Scorpion and throw him away.
Landing flat on his back, Scorpion was very tired from the battle. Skeletor, however, seemed barely even affected. Scorpion made one final decision.
He charged, full speed, with his blade in front of his body, a particularly dangerous ploy. One easily parried by the simplest of swordsmen.
Skeletor thought of this as a suicidal ending to a battle, and readied his sword for the final blow.
Scorpion screamed in rage, and Skeletor stabbed…
...the air. Scorpion had teleported, ending up behind Skeletor. He stabbed the conqueror in the back, and Skeletor fell to the ground.
Scorpion: “That was intense.” He walked off.
He turned around and picked up his sword from the ground, the one that had stabbed Skeletor’s ba-
Wait. Where was Skeletor?
As if reading his mind, Skeletor replied, “Here.”
And Scorpion was grabbed by the neck and lifted off of the ground.
Scorpion: “NO! You should be dead!”
Skeletor: “Really? Well, I can’t let you be robbed of that feeling.”
Skeletor used his evil magic to destroy Scorpion’s body and mind.
Scorpion let out a final cry as he was erased from this world.
Skeletons left: 3
Dry Bowser, thinking he was safe, sat down on his throne.
“Comfy?” A figure next to him asked.
He turned, seeing a flaming skeleton clothed in black leather.
Dry Bowser was struck by Ghost Rider’s backhand, and launched through the far wall of the castle.
On his back, and struggling to get up, Dry Bowser saw Ghost Rider jump in the air above, preparing to come crashing down on top of him.
Dry Bowser launched a fireball, which nailed Ghost Rider in the chest. Surprisingly, it did nothing. Ghost Rider still came down, crashing into Dry Bowser. This not only created a large THOOM sound, but cracked the floor below them.
They ended up in a freefall, both punching and kicking the other. They continued until they both crashed into a stone brick platform, surrounded by lava.
Dry Bowser looked around, realising he had been in this situation too often. As he was judging his surroundings, he was hit with a hard left hook.
This launched him to the very edge of the platform, where Ghost Rider sat on his chest, rapidly and repeatedly punching Dry Bowser’s face.
Dry Bowser then pulled his head into his shell, and Ghost Rider punched the ground. Dry Bowser then spun away, and punched Ghost Rider into the lava.
Ghost Rider failed to get out, and was completely submerged in the lava.
Dry Bowser let out a hearty laugh, but stopped when he heard bubbling.
He turned around, and was splashed with lava when he saw Zarathos emerge.
Zarathos: “YOU WILL BURN!”
He launched at Dry Bowser, smashing him into the wall. Zarathos grabbed Dry Bowser’s upper jaw.
Zarathos: “YOUR SOUL IS MINE!”
Zarathos destroyed Dry Bowser’s soul, watching the light go out of his eyes.
Skeletons left: 2
Skeletor was standing in the field when Ghost Rider, in his normal form, showed up.
Skeletor: “Back for another match?”
Ghost Rider: “This one won’t be interrupted.”
Skeletor: “This will easily end in your death.”
Ghost Rider: “Easily, huh? Well, you’re in for a surprise.”
Skeletor charges with his sword, and brings it down in a quick overhead swing.
Ghost Rider sidestepped out of the way, but was slashed in the chest by the next swing.
He fell, clutching his chest. Skeletor went for another swipe, but Ghost Rider grabbed the sword and threw it to the ground. He followed the disarm by kneeing Skeletor’s jaw.
Taken aback, Skeletor realised he had underestimated his foe. He quickly called his sword back to him, and just in time to reflect Ghost Rider’s chains.
The two of them repeatedly clashed weapons, with Skeletor parrying multiple chain strikes. Ghost Rider continued to attack Skeletor while he mentally summoned his bike.
Skeletor heard an engine revving while he took the offensive. Before he could land the clean blow, he was hit in the side by the Hellcycle.
When it came for a return trip, Skeletor grabbed it to rip it in half. Before he could, however, he was grabbed around the neck by hellfire chains.
Ghost Rider: “You cannot... escape… your sins!” He was struggling to pull Skeletor, due to the conqueror’s sheer strength.
But with a final tug, he had the conqueror on the ground before him. The conqueror quickly got back up, but was hit in the back of the head by Ghost Rider’s fist.
Before Ghost Rider could hit him again, Skeletor teleported away. Ghost Rider looked around, seeing nothing. But he heard something…
... it was something whizzing through the air. As soon as he turned, he was impaled through the chest. The sword stabbed the ground, with Ghost Rider on it.
Skeletor walked over, relishing his victory. He stood over the victim, watching the light go out of his eyes.
Suddenly, he was grabbed by the shoulders and impaled on the hilt of his own sword.
Skeletor laughed. “You think this will kill me?”
Ghost Rider: “If not, this will.” He pulled Skeletor closer to his face.
Skeletor (sarcastically): “Ooh… the kiss of death… SCARY.” He would have rolled his eyes, but he had none. He suddenly felt a pain in his chest. “What are you doing!?”
Ghost Rider: “You are feeling the weight of your sins, scum. Taste the pain you have caused!”
Skeletor: “NOOOOOOO!” He was overwhelmed with pain, enough to shrivel him into a real skeleton. The last thing he felt was the murder of Hanzo Hasashi, and his soul perished.
Skeletons left: 1
KO!!!
Ghost Rider pulls the sword out of the ground and himself. He looks at it, shrugs, and takes it with him.
Conclusion[]
B: SKELETON SUPREME!
W: While the other skeletons were definitely skilled on their own, none of them quite matched up to Ghost Rider.
B: First off, let’s start with Jack. He didn’t actually outclass the rest of the skeletons in anything besides arsenal. And even that’s a stretch compared to Skeletor.
W: He was not nearly as strong as Dry Bowser, not as fast as Scorpion, and not as durable as Ghost Rider.
B: Next is Sans. He was the least durable of the bunch, and couldn’t keep up with the speedier opponents for long. He also had little ways to do actual damage to the tougher opponents
W: Scorpion was powerful enough to place 4th, but not enough to beat the other three. His speed is around Mach 3, and his strength is enough to crush diamond.
B: He was similar in physical durability to Dry Bowser, but he was more easily killable by the others’ attacks.
W: As for Dry Bowser, he was definitely durable on the outside, but his slowness and limited magic were enough to put him down.
B: While he was physically ‘unkillable’, he had little to no protection against Zarathos’s soul manipulation.
W: And if he needed, the Penance Stare could cause great agony, if not death, in Dry Bowser.
B: But now, the ultimate question. Who was more powerful: Skeletor, or Ghost Rider?
W: Well, the stats paint the answer clearly. Skeletor’s feats were significantly higher than the other combatants’, but Ghost Rider blew them away.
B: Skeletor would compare to He-Man, who threw a moon weighing about 70 quintillion tons.
W: But Ghost Rider can outclass Hulk and Thor, who have both destroyed planets and more.
B: And for speed, Ghost Rider can react at massively FTL speeds on his bike, so he should be able to keep up and pass Skeletor.
W: And Skeletor can’t kill him, either. His magic was exceptional, but Ghost Rider has kept up with more powerful sorcerers, like Dr. Strange and Mephisto.
B: The superior stats show why Ghost Rider ‘SkeleTORE’ up the competition.
W: The winner is Ghost Rider.
