Stringer Bell (The Wire) Or Ghost (Power)

[Captain Crunch]

Never watched The Wire, Ghost by default

 

[El Poyo Loco]

Everything Avon said to Stringer when Clay Davis took his money is the exact opposite of Ghost. Stringer wanted to be in the game and legit at the same time. Avon was also right when he told Stringer that String wasn't hard enough for the street and not smart enough for them.

 

[thaKEAF]

Stringer easily.

Get murdered by your own son brehs

 

[zerorequiem]

Wouldn't Stringer be more like Tommy? Why not Avon or Marlo compared to Ghost?

By the way, Power is nowhere near The Wire, and I love both series.

If Ghost had reached his aspirations of being in politics, I would put him ahead.

 

[MikelArteta]

They really tried to make ghost s Tupac in a business suit

Somebody post that smiley for me


Breh was a club owner, a drug kingpin, and a professional hitman with the skills of the jackal. Dude was doing hits while on a date and somehow evading the feds for three seasons.

That's some pretty epic shyt but like ol boy said earlier he was a cartoon character.

String was a much more believable ambitious a$$hole so I give it to him.

also running for lieutenant governor lol

 

[El Poyo Loco]

String got finessed by Clay Davis

And when Clay told Freemon about how he was playing Stringer like it was a regular Tuesday

Even Levy had to laugh at it because of all the things Stringer should have come to him about he doesn't.

String got finessed by Clay Davis

While ghost on the other hand finest politician and became candidate for lieutenant governor.


Club owner
Drug Kingpin
Elite hitman with mad bodies
Gubernatorial candidate


@ultraflexed are you sure this is based on a real person?





Ghost was a mix of Clay Davis/Orlando/Carcetti/Stringer Bell/and Chris Partlow






I wish they gave power another 2 seasons just so we could see how a sitting governor balances a family, a mistress, an fbi investigation, a drug business with direct links to a cartel, and his clubs.

I wonder if he would still be doing his own hits



He'd probably slip out of a ribbon cutting ceremony just to do a hit and then slip back in like nothing happened

String didn't know when to handle shyt in a street way and when to handle shyt in a business way. He shoulda moved on Marlo and cleaned all that up before Avon got home. Ghost moved more thoroughly between both worlds. Both had habits of throwing folks under the bus for their personal ambitions.

If I have to pick, I choose Ghost, just based off the characters' storylines and how they progressed/are progressing.

“What did I tell you about playing those fukkin away games”

Avon over Ghost all day

 

[TheJaymes]

Stringer Bell hands down. Ghost is the Great Value Stringer Bell.

 

[ISO]

Those lil Baltimore nikkas can’t compare to Ghost

 

[904]

Ghost was a kingpin/sniper/ninja/black ops assassin with an IQ around 180.. Except when it came to Angela

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

String got finished off my a hotep and a homo

And I'd do it again.....

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

Who wins the battle of the hitmen?

My money is on Tommy only because I think he's faced tougher competition than anyone else. Definitely the craziest of the three.

 

[Jasonmask]

I’ll give it to ghost. Obviously the wire is written ten times better however ghost is what stringer wanted to be.
