Isn't that what we were supposed to think? I don't remember the original story that well, but I always thought the same thing.

I suppose w/ Batwing's set-up, the Turtles would take it ... but, if Danny & Shang-Chi & maybe White Tiger or The Sons of the Tiger (70's versions) were in the scrap, the Marvel gang would be eating Turtle Soup w/ chop-sticks that evening. I've always felt that Shang-Chi could take Cap.

Well, take the X-Men out of the equation and focus on the main martial artists in Marvel:
Iron Fist, Shang-Chi, Daredevil, Elektra
Who would you match with whom and what is the outcome?

If this is true, then why aren't the Turtles, and Splinter all blind too?

Don't you think it's unfair to limit it to just these players? There are plenty of Marvel characters with mad martial arts skills. Karnak, Batroc, Captain America, Black Widow etc.
Also if you're talking weapon vs weapon, the X-Men are all over three of them. Gambit = bo staff, Psylocke = katana and Wolverine = (almost) sais.

I had to choose 4 Marvel characters to take on the TMNT. Refer to post #1!

'cause it didn't splash/spray directly onto their eyeballs. They just kinda waddled around in it.+ the goop diluted itself in the sewer water. It wasn't fortified radioactive waste.

Okay...so with this explanation, I will now make my prediction for this VS.
The TMNT were created with diluted radioactive waste, and "sewer water". Hmmm....sounds to me like any one of the Marvel martial artists, or even Aunt May should be able to beat them, as it's sounds like they've "taken crap" from everyone!

I just wanted to say that my last post was supposed to be a joke. I love the TMNT, and don't really think all of the Marvel martial artists could take them. There might be a couple of them that could, but the TMNT are tough, Especially Raph and Leo, in my book...
