So last night while trying to sleep, this idea struck my mind as if it were lightning.

I don't think I understand what you are saying. And I was using the Marvel scale, of course. On that scale, Gregole is a level 3 - 'capable of lifting 3 metric tons', which is about the power level of 15 strong men. Spider-Man, on the other hand: He's beastly strong. And strength isn't even his best feature - his speed, agility, ability to stick to any surface, his multi-applicable webs, years of combat experience against an endless variation of foes, plus a sixth sense that warns him of impending danger make him a match for much stronger opponents. All Avengers are versed in fighting many super-powered enemies at once, alone or as a team. Zoanoids are risibly outmatched.1 point

Gregole would not be a level 15 but a level 3, maybe. And yes, we have that one image of a Gregole hefting what looks like an M-1 Abrams tank over its head - which weighs 62 tons - but that contravenes everything we were ever told about the type, or indeed Zoanoids per se. A Gregole would not sweep the floor with Spider-Man. Spider-Man is physically as strong as the Guyver. Infiltration? In a world that not only has several independent secret agencies that keep their eye out for exactly that, but also several secret criminal or terrorist organizations (AIM, HYDRA, THEM, the Secret Empire, the Hand, Zodiac and the Sons of the Serpent and this is just the tip of the iceberg) trying to do so? Archanfel is unique; he is the most powerful being in the world, and destroying the planet that was thrown at Earth took everything he had. It may even be that act that causes in him the need to hibernate. Chronos has no other warrior who can do anything like what he can do - and even Archanfel is severely outclassed when faced with several of Marvel-Earth's people. I don't think I agree with you at all.1 point

Actually, Alkanfel, Spider-Man is at least a class 10 - meaning he can deadlift ten tons; while Gregole is stated to have the strength of fifteen men, Spider-Man is at least as strong as fifty. Quite apart from that, I think the Guyver universe and the Marvel one are fundamentally incompatible. Here's why: In the Marvel universe, about a million years ago, Earth was visited by the Celestials, gigantic armored space-gods. They took humanitys ancestors - probably Homo Heidelbergensis - and manipulated their genes, creating three species: the immortal, god-like Eternals, the ever-changing, demonic-looking Deviants, and the humans, who seemed unchanged - except they now had the potential to develop incredible super-powers. It is this hidden potential that caused the surge in superheroes and -villains. The Fantastic Four got their powers through exposure to cosmic rays, the X-men and other mutants develop theirs naturally, and Captain America, Luke Cage and Wonder Man were empowered as the result of experimentation, but the ultimate cause is always the Celestials' meddling. They are the Creators, and their efforts contravene anything the Advents might have done. Where Zoa-forming is an arduous and dangerous process, empowering a human in the Marvel universe, on the other hand, can be as simple as electrocution, being bitten by a radioactive spider or simply hitting puberty; the process is virtually instantaneous and practically every subject survives. And some of the empowered individuals possess enormous power, on a par with that of a Zoalord, like Magneto, Graviton, Electro (on a good day), the Human Torch, Radioactive Man, Apocalypse or Iceman. Some even surpass Archanfel, like Molecule Man, the Scarlet Witch or the Sentry. In an all-out war between the two Earths, Chronos is outclassed. And were Chronos to try to Zoaform people from the Marvel universe, they could be facing any number of nasty surprises.1 point

I think that zoanoids would be much more powerful in marvel. They would have access to much more scientific break throughs, more generic samples on hand. And they would have access to hydra and aim and they can replicate most abilities. Through that in with cronus know how and competency.... Tough zoanoids. Probably even cause an experienced Guyver lots of problems.1 point

They recently stopped a Skrull secret invasion, and one animated movie had the Chitauri Invasion. in the case of the Skrulls, they replaces heroes instead of government officials and caused chaos to the super heroes, but weren't enough of a threat it seems because... well they masqueraded as heroes instead of taking all government positions. The Chitauri Invasion is one, that absolutely makes no sense. They simply spawn infinite numbers, and allied themselves with the Nazi's in history... for no apparent reason other than for the lolz. They also failed, because... well the super heroes noticed a huge big single weak point and took it out. Now here is where Chronos would succeed and fail. Chronos would likely manage to take over the world, or at least huge portions of it. But it wouldn't last long. It wouldn't be stopped because no one knows the source of these zoanoids, and that the world's governments would be gutted out, and the military of most nations defeated. The scariest thing is that Chronos would eventually come to control nuclear warheads from several nations. What Chronos would fail at is, beating all the heroes AND the Villains, who would immediately work to try and subvert them. Chronos, despite a single Zoanoid being stronger than most villains, super heroes, and armies. Would eventually be taken out by the big guns. Just like how the Zoalords would mostly be taken out by the most powerful of heroes. They would also have mixed success in winning over the population and that is all their enemies need to win. While Guyver's world has a mostly subverted population with only a minority attempting to resist. If Chronos wants to survive, it would require recruiting as many heroes and villains over to it's side if possible. But even after that, who's going to stop Thor, Hulk, Dr.Doom, and others from Going after the leaders once Chronos becomes public? The take over of the marvel universe does have one very cool option for Chronos. Using Mutants like Cyclops and Wolverine to create new Zoanoids. Taking over all of SHIELD's technology. Managing a mostly peaceful world and all the heroes and villains reacting to it. It would be an awesome change of events. I just wish Marvel characters weren't so overpowered and inconsistent, since even though on Paper a Scout Zoanoid should beat the crap out of Spidey and Captain America, that Plot armor comes to save them, always. Side Note: I just remembered how plot armor allows Peter Parker to Survive spider bite radiation, but how Mary Jane comically died of radiation poisoning over time in one comic because of Spiderman's radioactive jizz.1 point
