The way I see it, if Clockwork had fast enough reflexes he could blast Toepick away before he revealed his face. But since Clockwork is notorious for not having fast reflexes, I'm going to have to say Toepick would win.

Zimvader42, I don't think your point is valid because if Toepick opened his helmet, Clockwork would be too scared to transport himself back in time, and like I said, his reflexes are too slow. Fasttrack might have better luck against Toepick, or maybe Wildmutt, because he has no eyes. Eye Guy would be the worst possible alien. Nah, I don't think you're right. As far as omniverse has shown, Toepick needs a time of at least 2-3 seconds to open his cage-helmet (you know, first the buttons spread gas, then the bars go a bit down, then they finally open). As you stated Clockwork is slow in reflexes, but he doesn't need to move to use his powers! Since Clockwork powers means rays, and rays are light, and light is faster than anything, then Clockwork could just stop Toepick or do anything to him before even giving the ogre time to show him his face, therefore Clockwork wouldn't even be scared at all.

But anyway, I see where my logic fails. I come from the idea that Clockwork and Toepick both know the powers of each other before the fight. If we put them in the escenario where they are oblivious about each other powers, then Clockwork wouldn't know what is Toepick doing with his helmet until is too late and he sees the face of fear (just like Psyphon did). Anyway, I still think that Clockwork would win. I mean, when you see something horryfing you just move your head away from it. Some people even has specific reflexes against fear (like punching, running, getting quiet and stand in place, etc.). If this is the case, Clockwork just has to move his head away from toepick and shoot a time ray.
