On to Round 4 ....
In the event of a tie both will carry on to the next day to meet some other challenger. I will try and vary the sources from comics to TV show characters.
I'm also going to add a bit of story to this to make it interesting, it's still a favorite poll but it's going to have continuity!
I will happily take requests for future opponents. But in the meantime we have to continue following Rhino!
--------------------------------------
Last time Rhino was counting his share of money with the bank robber when Johnny Sorrow showed up demanding they hand the cash over or suffer the consequenses.
Rhino unimpressed with the threat responds with.
"Not a chance, I beat down that ugly Lantern and earned this. Get lost"
Sorrow points at Rhino and says.
"I warned you!"
Johnny Sorrow goes to remove his mask but Rhino stamps his heavy foot and causes the pavement to crack open sending Johnny Sorrow tumbling into the sewer.
*3 weeks later*
On a sunny beach Rhino is relaxing, he leans over to grab his coconut cocktail, but instead finds nothing but a slender foot. He looks up and is greeted by a stunning lady dressed in black, who holds a pistol to his head.
"Rhino your coming with me, Nick Fury would like a word."
Will Rhino come willingly to see the head of S.H.I.E.L.D?
Rhino
The brute who would become the Rhino (Aleksei Mikhailovich Sytsevich) was a small time Russian henchman. He was contacted by Eastern Block agents, and willingly agreed to become the subject in an experiment to transform him into a superhuman assassin. At the hands of a couple of Russian scientists using chemical and radiation treatments, the Rhino was created. He became the possessor of super strength and a super tough skin which was "permanently" grafted to his own. As for the Rhino's limited intelligence, and instinct to charge before thinking... well, they were already part of his psyche long before the costume arrived.
vs
Black Widow
The first and best-known Black Widow is a Soviet agent trained as a spy, martial artist, and sniper, and outfitted with an arsenal of high-tech weaponry, including a pair of wrist-mounted energy weapons dubbed her "Widow's Bite". Romanova eventually defects to the U.S. for reasons that include her love for the reluctant-criminal-turned-superhero archer Hawkeye. The Black Widow is a world class athlete and gymnast, expert martial artist, markswoman, and weapons specialist as well as having extensive espionage training. She is also an accomplished ballerina. The Black Widow uses a variety of equipment invented by Soviet scientists and technicians, with later improvements by S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists and technicians. Usually associated with the Avengers she has also been Daredevil's love interest in the past.

Kilowog was given the chance to answer the mayor's phone call over The Human Torch (26-23)
Rhino caught the unprepared Kilowog by surprise and crushed him into the pavement. (12-11)
Rhino foiled Johnny Sorrow's attempt at taking the stolen money. (15-10)
