Hey guys, CBR put out their annual Superhero bracket and I thought it would be fun to see what people's Final Four and overall winner would be. My Final Four were: Lex Luthor Kitty Pryde Flash Jean Grey With the overall champion being: Jean Grey

Fun! Just filled it out, and made a few assumptions: Ms. Marvel is Carol, so I'm treating her as if she's modern Captain Marvel, and I'm assuming Robin is Damian. Not sure which Nick Fury they're referring to, but it doesn't matter cuz I've got Fist knocking him out first round anyway.
With that in mind, Final Four: Batman, Hawkeye, Wonderwoman, Ms. (Captain) Marvel Carol Danvers wins the bracket.

There are so many variables to consider regarding the rules and settings of the combat, what preparation is permitted beforehand, the various iterations of the characters vis a vis their power levels, etc. that you could conceivably have a different result each time you go through it! For instance, in one bout, I'd assume Ms. Marvel as Carol, but what version of Jean Grey are we talking about; the original Marvel Girl, the powered-up Jean of the Seventies, or Phoenix?
An aside here, but where's Susan Richards on this list? Quite frankly, depending on the seedings, she'd go awfully deep here, and possibly all the way if you agree with John Byrne who called her one of the most formidable characters in the Marvel Universe in battle. (Her son Franklin is exempt due to the cosmic level of his mutant powers, I'm guessing?)
Anyway, for what it's worth, my Elite Eight would be:
Batman vs. Lex Luthor
Zatanna vs. Darkseid
Spider-Man vs. Captain America
Dr. Strange vs. Dr. Doom
FINAL FOUR
Batman vs. Darkseid
Captain America vs. Dr. Doom
CHAMPIONSHIP
Darkseid vs. Dr. Doom
WINNER
Dr. Doom

I'm just going to discuss my choices for the marvel street poll level that's going on right now. (I did DC too, but I don't know half of the characters, so I just went with the super people because they're virtually cheating anyway)
Spiderman VS Punisher I chose spiderman. I like the punisher more, but he's just a very prepared man with lots of weaponry. Spiderman has dealt with prepared guys with guns a million times over (including the punisher)
Winter Soldier vs Deadpool I chose Deadpool. He's a doofus but it's pretty hard to take him out of the game considering his healing ability.
Kitty Pryde vs Beast I chose Kitty. With her ability the beast can not only touch her, but any machine he may have prepared would become innert as soon as she went through it.
Cyclops vs Nightcrawler I chose Nightcrawler. Cyclops has seen a lot of battle, but he can only fight what he can see. Nightcrawler can bamf all over the place and swashbuckle his way out of this fight pretty quick.
Daredevil vs Mr Fantastic I chose Daredevil. I am a fanboy, this is not "realistic"
Captain America vs Hawkeye I chose Captain America. Hawkeye is nothing special, Cap has blocked far more dangerous things than arrows with his shield.
Iron Fist vs Nick Fury I chose Iron Fist. All Iron fist has to do is hang to the left and then BAM! right in his ordinary guy face
Wolverine vs Multiple Man I chose wolverine. I feel like Jamie can just stomp his feet and make a few hundred copies of himself and dogpile on wolverine rendering him immobile. Madrox Prime needs to just make sure he's lingering in the back so he doesn't catch any claws to the gut
