My Life as a Teenage Juggernaut... (Worm AU x Marvel)

Not quite. Her very first appearance had her rescue Iron Man from Doctor Doom, and she beat him entirely on screen. (By taking advantage of being in a low flying craft over a forest and bringing squirrels in more then twice as fast as Doom could take them out while swarming him in tight quarters, letting her free Iron Man uninterrupted.)

I was specifically referring to her exploits in the Great Lakes Avengers mini-series. And specifically, the Christmas special issue where she faces an ever escalating in power series of Villains while shopping for Christmas dinner due to repeatedly forgetting an ingredient, and running into SHIELD facing said villain or villains on the way to or from the grocery store. Meanwhile the rest of the team spend the entire issue battling evil Christmas Trees which eventually get defeated by the discovery that tinsel paralyses them. Of the villains she faces in that issue, only Modok's defeat gets shown. Instead, she'll come across the baddies, then the next panel is SHIELD agents thanking her for defeating the villains.

Prior to that series, her only appearance had been in the issue of Iron Man you mention when she tried becoming Iron Man's sidekick. And she doesn't "keep bringing in squirrels faster then they can be taken out". Instead, Dr Doom finds that he flat out has trouble due to his training being exclusively hitting human sized targets. The squirrels were too small and fast for him to hit.

And knowing Vic, he fixed THAT issue right quick.

Rodent-seeking micro-missiles, I expect... Probably combined with a few carefully designed enchantments to 'Analyse Opponent'... He really isn't someone you want as an enemy...

Odds are he would cause Taylor a lot of problems - whether Marvel super-science and magical-logic work in a Worm-verse (generally, never mind this one) is... an interesting question. Again, he's probably clever enough to work around any problems, eventually.

Yeah, the problem with having Doom as an enemy isn't the super-science. And it's not the magic.

It's his intellect. Remember, he can keep up with Reed Richards.

Did I miss something and this is related to this story somehow? :confused:

They're basically positing what would happen if Taylor (pretty much ANY version of her) teamed up with a hyper-intelligent person like Victor von Doom, and the resulting chaos the universe would have to endure. Pretty much everyone that was aware would be looking for the escape hatch OUT of that particular multiverse strand.

As far as germane to the story? Only such that Cytorak enjoys destruction and chaos, and by his empowering crystal finding Taylor, he's probably going to be in for one hell of a show.

Yeah, Taylor and Restraint are two concepts that are barely on speaking terms, usually. And Proportional Response isn't even in her vocabulary.

"I found, that if you are strong enough, you can Bend Space. That shoebox, that has banging and shouting coming from inside? That's the E88. All of them. Questions?"

("OK, Reality wasn't happy about it, but...")

((Yes, the shoebox has (teeny, tiny) air holes. She isn't cruel...))

Now, now, a 30 to 1 response is proportional. Just because she ups the proportion every time does not mean that Proportional Response isn't in her vocabulary.

Why, just ask the US Navy about Operation Praying Mantis. Very proportional that. The Fat Electrician agrees.
 
The thing about one-man armies is that they tend to scale higher proportions when they calculate their responses. Taylor's herself and the swarm in canon. I hope that explains things a bit.
 
Proportionate response?

1,000,000:1 is a proportion, isn't it?

To Taylor, the only disproportionate response is ignoring it. Anything else is deemed completely appropriate, regardless of the proportion involved.
 
Dealing with people like Crawler is easy, throw them out of their shards operational zone, and they will no longer regenerate.

This scales up a bit if they can operate inside the solar system, but that's unlikely, and only necessitates throwing them out of the solar system.

Queen of Blood did the best "Deal With Crawler" ever done by a fanfic, he/it got yeeted into Jupiter, Crawler was stuck there until his/its Shard ran out of power to keep up the regeneration.

The TV Tropes page has links to both the ff.net and SB pages.

Incidentally, Taylor becomes Dracula, while Madison Triggers as the newest Belmont...but they're on the same side.

Direct links HERE & HERE, just be aware that QoB is looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooongTM and if you're not going through the thread marks it can be a slog to get through the SB version, if only for the SB/SV Patented natterTM.
 
All of my readers who live in Central and Southern Florida (and are still there) : Take cover and stay safe! Milton's a comin', and he brought some tornadoes along with 'im! Ones that make what we normally get in the Midwest like our supercells ain't tryin' very hard.

As I said to my brother in law last night: "Hello. I'm the hurricane. Basically. Run."
