Batman. Given some prep time, he can beat anyone or anything.
This thread is a very entertaining read, so far. I may not know all of the characters, but its definitely fun to think about.
I was very amused by the mention of god (or God)... but instantly wondered how long it would take before someone took his religion too seriously and got offended... I see I didn't need to wait long. 
I think I need to toss a vote at one of the forces like Eternity or the Beyonder... doesn't the Universe itself have a personification in the Marvelverse?

That's Eternity. Although every major aspect of reality has a personification as well, so Eternity is the body of the universe, but must often counsel with the other forces to come to a consensus on universal matters.

This brings up an interesting point that I alluded to in my own post. How do we define "Power" or "Most powerful"? By what a being can DO, or just who can beat who?|

Batman does not have any measure of super-human powers. However, it is true that with enough time, he can counter just about anyone. If he DIDN'T have time, sure he can improvise, but if Q or the Beyonder or the Data Overmind/Integration Thought Entity wished it, Batman would simply just cease to exist.

Allied to all sides so that no matter what, I'll come out on top!
Oh, and Crimson demands you play this arc-> Twisted Knives (MA Arc #397769)

Pretty much, Azrael is the end of all things, not just our universe but the very end of the multiverse, existence itself in every shape or form will simply cease to be once he is done.|

Depending on how you define "more powerful" nothing can destroy Azrael in the Discworld multiverse because in effect all agents of destruction work for him. Not only are all Deaths servants to him, even the Auditors of existence seem to be at least subservient to him and have no power over him. Since Azrael is the ultimate destroyer of everything and nothing can destroy him in any realm of existence, that's one definition of most powerful. |
However Azrael is obviously not proactive about seeking the end to the universe, for him it is merely a task, just as collecting and escorting the souls of the departed are for each of his individual Reapers.
Azrael is simply beyond reproach as you mentioned, no other being in any universe that ever existed can best him because he is the end of all things.
Well probably maybe "Ted" Theodore Logan and Bill S. Preston Esquire might be able to beat him in a game of Battleship or Twister (always did love that in the movie, challenge Death not to a game of skill such as chess but games where the winner is randomly decided)...

A real showstopper!

Marvel and DC had a cross over, each universe/company had a personification, I belive they were called the Brothers.

Brawling Cactus from a distant planet.
Blue Steel does not defeat enemies. He deletes them from the server.
Blue Steel's shield does not protect him. It protects others from his glory.
Blue Steel's only fear is that he will eventually run out of things to be more awesome than.
The Rulu-Shin worship Rularuu. Rularuu worships Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris worships Bruce Lee. And Blue Steel is worshiped by Bruce Lee.
If Blue Steel were defeated, it could only be by Blue Steel.
Blue Steel does not have an Evil Twin, because morality is beneath him.
Superman can take bullets. Bullets are too afraid of Blue Steel to strike him.
The hottest stars burn blue in honor of Blue Steel.
Blue Steel once had a kitten. He still misses little Battalion.
Hamidon is what happens when Blue Steel sneezes.
If Blue Steel and been involved in "Who Will Die?", the title would have been "EVERYBODY."
Blue Steel kills others for your sins. Including you.
Blue Steel uses impervium toilet paper. And it still breaks.
If Blue Steel glares at you, you will forever pee blood. So will your descendants. And your ancestors. And your other-timeline equivalents.
The Praetorian Blue Steel is the Primal Blue Steel.
The Well of the Furies's true form can be found in Blue Steel's liquor cabinet.
The "I Win Button" is just a crudely drawn picture of Blue Steel taped to a mini-bat.

If Masterminds didn't suck, they'd be the most powerful AT in the game.

Some of the beings mentioned can return and/or create life and manipulate any aspect of reality.
If someone can defeat that entity... would that make them more powerful? I don't really think so, but, regardless... if I am writing it, Batman won't be defeating Q, hehe.
And I doubt Death and similar entities could simply kill beings like Q, the Douwd, gods, or Squirrel Girl, so...

Azrael is a pretty good bet.
I'd put in a vote for Pun-Pun though, an inevitability created from an inconsistent set of rules, who arbitrarily has more power than anything else that can possibly exist.
Always remember, we were Heroes.
