Who’s stronger: Spider-Man or Batman? Lieutenant Commander Worf versus Predator? Darth Vader or Gandalf the Grey?
Heroes star Milo Ventimiglia and his production company DiVide Pictures, along with Agility Studios, are coming out with a webseries called Ultradome, which will pit the best of the best of sci-fi and fantasy in an arena not unlike Spike’s Deadliest Warrior. Gladiator versus Apache Warrior?
Pfft, let’s see Bat’leth versus Batarang.
“My whole life has been spent engaged with friends in intellectual debate … like whether Captain Kirk is tougher than Spock or if Middle Earth is a more difficult place to live than Tatooine,” Ventimiglia told the Hollywood Reporter. “With ‘Ultradome,’ we can bring these debates to the public and settle them in the most logical way possible: through armed combat.”
The first episode of the series — Lord of the Rings versus Star Wars — will launch this summer. Hopefully the series will be a bit more action-packed than, say, College Humor‘s take on that holy of holies — Batman versus Superman.

This could be intresting. At least it’s a web-series if all goes wrong.
But, I mainly wanted to point out that TorperdoComics.com’s ad campaign is having the exact opposite of (what I’m assuming is) their desired effect on me. Never shopping there ever.
