Ever since superheroes have existed, fans have been comparing different superheroes to see who’s stronger, faster or better? Who would win in a fight, Namor or Aquaman? Is Tony Stark smarter than Bruce Wayne? Is Squirrel Girl capable of taking down Thanos? There’s been a lot of debate, and some of them have even been answered in the comics. With Captain Marvel coming to theaters this week, this one particular question comes to mind: Can Captain Marvel beat Superman? Well, Brie Larson, who plays Captain Marvel, believes her character can.

“I can’t believe you have to Google that, duh,” Larson responded.
The reason why these two comic book superheroes have been pitted against each other many times by comic book fans is that they both have similar powers including flight and super strength and have been the leaders of their respective team.
Presales for Captain Marvel have been doing really well since it’s able to beat Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Deadpool. It also became the top presales film for Fandango after Avengers: Infinity War. However, the movie has been a hot topic especially with Brie Larson’s comment about there being too many white men at press events. This led to angry fans voicing their frustrations on Rotten Tomatoes. The aggregated review site, in turn, took out the audience comments section until the movie is actually released.
