I'll put on Game Theory, or Epic Rap Battles Of History, or even Dragonball Z Abridged and just let it run while I'm doing stuff around the house. Well, today, I was doing the dishes while watching Death Battle and the Goku vs Superman episode came on.
If you aren't familiar with Death Battle you should be. Basically it's Deadliest Warrior for fictional characters.
Anyway, back to the episode. I can't argue with their (the guys from Death Battle) research on Goku and Superman, but I do have a problem with their conclusion. Spoilers: You should really go over to www.screwattack.com and watch the episode of Death Battle featuring Goku and Superman. It's ok, I'll wait.
... Watched it? Good, wasn't it?
Okay, as they said. Superman is faster and stronger than Goku, and they are fighting to the death (as is the premise of the show), after all. Superman would be the winner at first. He would kill goku, thus ending the Death Battle.
The problem with that is that Goku can and has used instant transmission to travel to and from the land of the dead. His dead body is more durable, and he learns from his mistakes. What would happen after the initial battle is this: Goku teleports back to earth. He enlists the help of his friends to find kryptonite or a red star planet (or both) then attacks Superman again to keep him distracted while his friends set up a trap of some kind.
Even if this plan fails, Goku can just keep teleporting back from the Otherworld.
With the ability to come back from the dead at will, Goku WILL eventually succeed in destroying superman.
So, yeah. Superman might TECHNICALLY win the death battle. But Goku will find a way to persevere in the end.
Anyway, that's just my two cents.
