I'm not sure they'd fight. They'd probably go out for take-out curry and talk about kittens and Tori Amos.

Chihuahuas?  They are pure concentrated evil in dog form.  Plus they have The RageTM
  if they did go out, it would be to slip arsenic in the the rottie's curry.

And to answer yours  Death (Pratchett)
The reason, it comes do to genre savvy.  His Death would be able to meta win the contest.

Here's mine.

No fight. Jack would just seduce them all. Somehow. His sexuality knows no constraints of time, nor space, nor gender, nor species (so long as it's sentient), nor the Veil itself.

Harry Dresden vs. John Constantine.
So, we agree on Rogue.

And I'd say Dresden. He consistently destroys people and beings with 10 times his magical power, who are also bigger and stronger and smarter than him. Constantine's nearly 60 years old, now, and getting frail. Nothing beats Dresden, little-engine-that-could that he is.

Elton John vs. Martha Stewart

Sorry, but Martha's ability to spruce up Sir Elton's (deliberately?) horrifying fashion and decoration sense will beat Elton's superior musical talent. Martha will just release a CD with his stuff set to pleasant jazz backgrounds and keep on marching.

Susan, all the way.  Especially if she has a poker.  Mary Poppins might be able to do a lot of magical things, but Susan is Death's Granddaughter.  At absolute worst, she just has to wait.  And she's good at waiting...

Shazam! I know Captain Marvel has had his ass handed to him a couple times by Superman, but he has so much more in the way of personality than bland ol' Captain America. Also, I admit, I've always been a DC fangirl. <3  (so... er, the ass whuppings were kept in the family?)

Hmmm... okay, Spider-Girl (May Parker) vs. Zatanna Zatara.

Robin Hood, if only because he can shoot from afar and with enough precision not to hurt Zorro, but to disable him until he can get close enough to evaluate him as a potential threat and/or ally. Zorro's amazing swordplay might help him deflect arrows, but honestly a lot of his projectile avoidance was sheer dumb luck based on a cadre of enemies who are all terribly bad shots.

Fruit of the Loom guys win over Mr Peanut; they're used to handling guys and their nuts. :P

Since neither one is capable of blowing their nose, this comes down to companions. Sorry, but Rocky beats Horse.

Buster Keaton. He has the physical edge thanks to his upbringing in the circus giving him an incredible tolerance for pain, while Charlie is too bummed out that Hilter intentionally stole his look.

You kiddin me? Charlie Chaplin had a cane. Buster Keaton was always falling down. Chaplin could knock the legs right out from under him.

Wall-E vs. R2, huh? Well. R2. He wasn't a violent robot, but he did have weapons at his disposal. And a lot of friends, whereas Wall-E was just depressed and lonely for most of his life. Poor guy.

Ms. Simon only because I think she'd unhinge her jaw and eat Carole's face.

Smokey! Camel smokes, and Smokey puts out fires. So Camel would eventually go into a nicotine-craving withdrawal and start trying to rampage, but Smokey, slow and steady, with his wits intact, would talk him down, and then kindly send him to some sort of nicotine rehab facility.

As a side note, the world really needs nicotine rehab facilities...

Hm. Eddie Murphy vs. Mike Myers.

Eddie Murphy simply because he was able to make a space detective movie [Look up Pluto Nash while I laugh at you].

Thomas Edison vs. Nicolai Tesla

Tesla because he was a scary supervillain genius whose inventions were so advanced he made shit like an earthquake machine and we still can't figure out most of what he was actually doing.

The wizard of Menlo Park, though, was a better marketer, people person, and in some cases actually stole his ideas. He wasn't a better inventor.

So in a tech-based supervillain fight, Tesla wins, although Edison would give a close showing because he could probably assemble a better league of electric villainy with his superior social skills.
