Black Adam doesn't waste time with his fights and looks to end things quickly. Since Nova doesn't know what he's capable of he would hesitate at first and pull back on his attacks. You can't do that with fights against Black Adam. This is Richard Rider Nova not Alexander.. He has a plethora of feats were hes shown to be cunning in battle and decisive in defensive maneuvers. He doesnt get disoriented in battle, he doesn't go in head first as his vet nova corps status has thought him to be alert, cautious and to never underestimate his opponents. Plus, the Worldmind is constantly giving him readings and battle ground reports on the smallest of dangers and grandest of violent threats. Going into this battle he has a long history of entering an unknown location with unknown threats to immediately look out for. That precisely what he has practice fulfilling his job as a member of the Nova corps. Hes made for this.

Dmills from Killermovies.com has this opinion on the fight between Nova and Black Adam:
What works in Nova's favor is that gravity manipulators like him, Graviton or Gravity have a huge advantage over most strength based characters because gravity >>> strength. Nova in particular, because of the Nova Force and more importantly, the World Mind, is able to manipulate gravity in much more subtle ways then even Graviton. He is able to bend, weave and shape gravity in ways that high level gravity manipulators can't easily replicate, i.e. converting pure gravity into gravimetric energy or opening a stargate to precisely the location he wants to go. He can even use a person's own mass against them to turn them into a stargate (Sphinx) or bfr them into a hostile enviornment (Mindless ones, Ego). When properly used the Nova Force can even allow a low level centurian to incapacitate a person much more powerful then them because of gravity manipulation (Robbie vs Xenith).
Nova's speed and durability are as good as anybodies. He has also recently undergone a sort of soft retcon of sorts. At first DnA were writing Nova as having all of the Nova Force contained within him. You saw various scenarios with him being weakend and only having 17% of the Nova Force etc. But over time, (and a lot of annoyance from die hard Nova fans) they began to realize the inconsistancy of that approach. The Nova Force is a near infinite energy source used for various purposes, so how can Nova have only 17% etc? So now the way it works is levels of access. The WM allows a certain level of access to Nova Milleniums (which is what Robbie and others were down graded to). More access is allowed to Centurian level Nova's like Philo. The Nova Prime is allowed full unlimited access. This is why we no longer see Nova use terms like "I need full power to both hands", and instead saying "Worldmind, give me what you can spare, tight focus", and then blasting the hell out of whatever. In other words the Nova Prime gets what ever amount of Nova Force he needs to get the job done. It's just a matter of how smart he is with it.
And Richard Rider Nova Prime is pretty damn smart- ZeN

Sodam Yat Ion is weaker than Kyle Reyner Ion. He relies more on his physical abilities than he does the Ion power. Captain Atom on the other hand is more experienced with dealing with his powers and has many abilities to counter Sodam Yat.

He doesn't use full access and doesn't have full control of his ION powers.

If it isn't too late I'm voting for Black Adam. It's such a close match up like Boogie said previously. BA is just a tad bit better.

I never argued that the lasso of truth could bring nova down I don't see why not it. As for Captain Atom like I said earlier I think he has better control over his powers to beat Sodam Yat phasing, making copies of himself, invisibility, power absorption.

New Matchups + Results Shield Helicarrier (Marvel): Dawn, mostly cloudy with rain clouds, gusts at 60 MPH with sideways rain. For simplicity sake, the ship is hovering without requiring to move. It's hovering above the center of the Great Salt Lake. Boundaries are limited to the area of the Great Salt Lake which is 1800 sq miles and 33 ft deep. The materials from the cities that are outside the boundaries that border the lake, cannot be used and brought to the battlefield. They remain intact by the battlefield Gods. The ship cannot be destroyed, but the plating can be broken through; hovering device auto repairs with state of the art nano technology and instantaneously repairs to keep afloat. Nano technology will fix the rest of the ship automatically in 15 minute intervals. the ship's Z coordinate is 50 km above the troposphere (should be right in the Mesosphere above clouds). GMs are allowed to use the water as an advantage instead of the carrier. Drownings are allowed CHAMPIONSHIP BRACKET Bob (1-0) vs AmericanBad@$$ [@hawk ] (0-1) Nova [BWM] vs Black Adam [TSK] || Browntown needs more time Lord Helspont [BWM, TSK, browntown] vs Professor X trumped with John Stewart Cassandra Nova Xavier vs Wonder Woman (prepped) ION vs Captain Atom FIGHT FOR 3rd PLACE coopernicus (0-2) vs Anti Hero [ Anti Hero ] (2-0) Despero vs X-Man trumped/paired with Thor [BWM, TSK, browntown]Firestorm (Ronnie) paired/trumped with Gorilla Grodd [TSK] vs Hal Jordan GL trumped/paired with Sinestro [BWM, browntown]

I was reading about Sodom Ion and found out his Ion energy was diluted through the Guardians and the growing Green Lantern Corps. Compared to Kyle ION who possessed a much greater power from it. He's steal able to get damaged by C.A. and still has a weakness to lead that C.A. can exploit.

Oooooo finally something I can argue! The landscape here is perfect for Ultron, he can use the nanotech in the shit to his advantage, take control of them to attack sinister.
I honestly don't know any way sinister can attack or harm Ultron here, and prepped can only enhance his advantage.
