What WAS the Comic Battle of the 20th Century? The Conclusion!

Concluding my 12-part series reviewing comic books that claim The Battle/Fight/Bout/Showdown of the Century on their covers.

I now have read and reviewed all twelve comics making the claim. As I stated in Part 1, my goal was to "...clearly look back to decide which truly was the Battle of the Century, and call everyone else a liar."

I wrote it jokingly, but you know what...? Let's do that!

It's important to remember I'm using the words “battle”, “fight”, “bout, and “showdown” interchangeably, before I start name calling. Click on the titles below to read the original review.

Was it the Battle of the Century in 1940? YES!
Was it the Battle of the Century at the end of 1999? No. LIAR!

Was it the Battle of the Century in 1949? No. LIAR!

Was it the Bout of the Century in 1953? No. LIAR!

The Super Sentai (Original Japanese Power Rangers) do a lot of vs episodes

You should have done the 199 Super Sentai Battle.
