Roberto also seemed to basically sacrifice himself for Squigly rather than die by the villain's hands anyway, so trying to scale Dahlia to Squigly from this is pretty sketchy. Additionally, While we don’t know the full fighting capabilities of Roberto with Leviathan, he was clearly much weaker than Squigly, due to him not being able to fight against Dahila’s forces very effectively, while Squigly defeated what they had run from, and even defeated Roberto after The Skull Heart gave him a power boost. ![]() ![]() And that Selene was actually defeated by Squigly, with the help of Big Band, Annie, Panzerfaust and D. However it was later shown that Dahlia and her forces quickly fled once Selene turned Skullgirl. This used to be Dahlia’s most impressive feat, as we know that Selene was defeated, and the Medici made a big show of how they silenced the Contiellos, Heavily Implying that Dahlia fought Selene, a powerful Skullgirl, one on one and defeated her. The earliest point in the Skullgirls Timeline that we see Dahlia is 14 years ago, when she and some of her goons, slaughtered the entire Contiello family, where she shot Sienna in the head, and gunned down her father, Roberto, who it is important to note had Levithan as a parasite at the time.Īfterward, Selene used The Skull Heart to wish her family back and turned into the Skullgirl. So let’s go over her VS info from what we can gather. Dahlia has no actual loyalty to the Medici’s, only sticking with them cause she gets to hurt people and be paid for it, as seen in Cerebella’s origin where she made no effort to protect Vitale from Beatrix’s stray attack. While her time at ASG saved her life, it also drove her Mad, she became deranged and violent, and soon defected and joined up with the Medici Mob as an Assassin.ĭespite her being very high ranking in the Mob, this is sheerly due to how powerful she is. Black Dahlia was once a woman who was critically injured in a Skullgirl attack several decades ago, who was put back together by an ASG Scientist named Geiger using mechanical parts, becoming the first ASG Agent, predating even Brain Drain and Big Band, and essentially being the Prototype for all those that came after her. That’s it for their actual interaction, so let's pull in some info from the rest of the series to get the greater context. Dahlia also is aware in this scene that Peacock single handedly killed all the other Medici forces, meaning that she had this in mind when making those confident claims, so evidently it didn't impress her. While Dahlia is confident herself, she seems to be more cold, calculating and warrior-like in personality, meaning she likely would be more cautious than Peaks. Other than that, Peacock is extremely confident and brash, and would literally never show fear, so even if she did consider Dahlia a massive threat, she still would have reacted with this same level of bravado.ĭahlia not considering Peacock to be a big threat on the other hand is more noteworthy. The only way she could would be if someone at Lab 8 told her about her at some point, or if they’d met before, which we don’t have evidence to support. Peacock as far as I can tell, wouldn’t/shouldn’t/doesn’t know who Dahlia is or what her capabilities are. Now I can say Peacock not being worried about having to fight Dahlia is not particularly notable to this discussion. Dahlia basically saying Peacock is a pathetic unworthy child and she's going to kill her, and Peacock essentially blowing her off as a non threat, saying she's already beaten larger threats that night, and is more concerned about missing her shows and staying out too late. Terrified, Lorenzo summons Dahlia to defend him, and both girls exchange dialogue that makes them both sound incredibly confident of victory. After killing every single member of the organization in a one woman crusade over the course of one night, she finally makes it into the office of the head Crime Boss, Lorenzo Medici. So in Peacock’s story mode, after Peacock defeats the Skullgirl, Marie Korbel, she vows to finish Marie’s original goal of destroying the Medici Mafia once and for all. Despite my great love for Peacock, I will be completely objective and determine to the best of my knowledge who should logically win this battle! So today I wanted to take a look at all the information we have on Black Dahlia throughout her appearances in Skullgirls and information from Lore, and compare her to Peacock both from an out of universe And in universe perspective. ![]() But said story, ended in a Cliffhanger, with her about to face off with the Medici mob's top enforcer, Black Dahlia, with the results of the fight left to the imagination. I love her personality, inspirations and her story. ![]() heck, series ever, and one of its main characters, Peacock, is my character in all of fiction.
