A few days past, granolademonic told me, quite specifically:

Hoo'd Win some Vic Mackey vs. Omar Little by Friday, or I will.

It must happen! They're the two Batmanest bastards in television history.

Well, I can't say no to him, so here we go.

Amusing though: I've watched three times as many episodes of The Wire as I have The Shield. That's three to one, although I do own seasons one, two and three of The Wire.

Wikipedia, however, fills in the blanks.

Vic Mackey is:

a fictional Los Angeles Police Department detective and leader of the Strike Team, a four-man anti-gang unit in the FX crime drama series The Shield. Mackey is a corrupt yet effective police officer; he steals from drug dealers, beats suspects and has committed murder on three occasions. Two of the victims were violent gangsters, though the first was a member of his own team who was secretly working to expose Vic, despite his team's service to the community. Mackey sees his tactics as a means to an end. Despite his misdeeds, he is a devoted father, a loyal partner to his teammates and will readily protect those he sees as innocent victims.

While Omar LIttle is:

a fictional character on the HBO drama The Wire, portrayed by Michael K. Williams. Omar was a renowned stick-up man who lived by a strict code and never deviated from his rules, foremost of which is that he never robbed or menaced people who were not involved in the drug trade. Omar, who was gay, has had three partners on the show. Omar is the only major character on the series who claims to make a point of not using profanity.

Quite a pair. I suspect they've starred in a lot of slash together.

So! Pick your poison! Let this be the battleground on which these two knights of the streets see their final combat! Who shall be victorious, a cop so crooked he's straight, or... That stops there, actually.

First blood! Last Breath! There is now only one... HOO'D WIN!
