I voted Charlemagne vs Nobunaga but damn I was just as tempted to vote Kahlo vs Chanel or Woods vs Williams.

I don't normally like fictional-character-vs.-fictional-character matchups (there's enough of those on the Internet...), but for the Phantom vs. the Mask, the differences in style would more than make up for it.

I have Wealth of Nations and Das Kapital side-by-side on my bookshelf (and it was a conscious decision to do that) and I'd love to see Adam Smith and Karl Marx in ERB, I'd rather have them in a larger group-style battle between different schools of economics (like the philosophers before) - especially considering they share the labor theory of value. So it's Charlemagne for me. Part of the founding myth/narrative of both Germany and France, basically one of histories true "high kings of yore". (And I understand Oda Nobunaga is as important, and I'd like to learn more about him, too.)

I'd love to see Marx in a battle but I'm still holding out for Marx v Rand. Though I admit I'm not familiar with Smith. Mask v Phantom is just brilliant. Big Trek fan and I LOVE the idea of Spock. Would be an interesting battle given his whole character is calm, collected logic with no showing of emotion. It might risk making his verses a little one-note. But then again you made epic verses for Bob Ross and Mr Rogers without them ever raising their voices so I'd love to see what you could do with a Vulcan.

These are all too good to pick just one, though I think Ayn Rand might be a more interesting opponent for Karl Marx.

Marx vs Ford is literally the best

100%. Facts. Very True. Absolutely. Top tier.

Now just thinking or Groucho v Karl Marx for no apparent reason
