Guest bigballerju Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Jonah completes his mission first. He will shoot the shit out of anyone that gets in his way. Nice fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tomisntblue Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 This is interesting. The Question's paranoid nature might be his biggest strength, but it could lead to his downfall as he'll be so busy taking precautions to assure he's not followed and no one finds him, which could slow him down. While Hex might take a more direct route and just shoot anyone who tries to stop him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sithisson Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Agreed with the above. Jonah is liable to go straight out Uber Pony Express on this mission making it through whoever gets at him with sheer firepower. However I'd not knock against the Question either considering that with all his paranoia he might get wind of those at him first and take them out while using access to any "allies" he might know to get him to his destination quicker. Still I think Jonah might just be a bit faster in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest force_echo Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Jonah will leave a trail so blatant a toddler would be able to follow it. Either he'll get shot or the whole point of his "top secret" delivery is moot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either he'll get shot or the whole point of his "top secret" delivery is moot.It's a fair point. Question certainly has the advantage in subtlety.

Either he'll get shot or the whole point of his "top secret" delivery is moot.That is true it would not be considered secret anymore. Then again with no witnesses to have gotten a hold of what the package might have or it's location, because they'd all be dead, I'd say it would be his version of keeping something secret.You do have a point about the Question being the more cautious however and secrets are part of his trade, no matter how insane some of his theories might sound.Again he does know some people who might be able to help in this, depending on how he asks.

xLEGACYx Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Question without question. This is right up his alley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KevinDWolf93 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Well he's a secret courier mind you assassins are after them regardless so that's not too big a point at least the way I'm reading it. While Question(mostly DCAU) is the more cautious one, Jonah surviving assassins is far from a new thing. If we go DCAU, Question might be more cautious but not as formidable combat-wise. DC pre-new 52 Sage is more h2h proficient but not as insane. Despite that, Jonah I think is the hardier of the two and his tracking/deductive skills aren't to be sneezed at; not as refined as a DC detective, but his wit's always served him well and this is up the Bounty Hunter's alley. I'd disagree with him leaving that obvious a trail; unless you mean identifying him; then the order of "kill this guy with a burnt ass face and confederate uniform" vs "keep an eye out for this guy who can not have a face or be red-headish nobody" might lean towards Jonah being the more recognizable one so Ill give discreetness to Vic. Still, given the scenario it's not like Jonah's gonna stroll into town, pick some bar fights, loudly proclaim he's there, then leave sloppily. He's more competent than that, it's usually trouble finding him. An to be frank, if/when assassins catch up with our couriers i wanna point out that between your average work day for hex, supernatural threats, the assassin caravan from "the six gun war' storyline which included various multi-national assassins a one point and even a run in or two with the court of friggin owls in the New 52, there's probably no distinct method of assassination attempt that hasn't been tried on Jonah unsuccessfully. Not to take anything away from Question, but I think Hex has better experience and luck with not getting killed by guys out for his blood due to his level-headed thinking and quick draw if it becomes a straight fight. Less direct methods of assassination(poisoning, sniping, etc) are something I think both guys can work through well enough to not consider all that much. I'm liking Hex marginally just because he's gonna be in it for the the long haul and his code is gonna make sure he sees the job through to the end.
