Annals of Projection: Frickin' laser beams attached to their heads

Who would win?

Alar the Thief, aboard the Solarion Nine solar probe floating within the sun's chromosphere, projecting light-beams from his future-evolved eyes...
Or Culla the Pring, aboard the solar probe Sundiver floating within the sun's chromosphere, projecting laser beams from his alien eyes?
------------------------------------------
In other news... here the twelve conspirators, on the signal from their leader, focus the coherent light beams from their newly-opened pineal-gland Third Eyes upon the target. The Tyrant Sky-Fairy thought he was safe from any assassination attempt from his subjects, whose puny emissions were individually no match for his shields. He had never considered the possibility that they might be capable of this level of cooperation.
It is NOT A MAYPOLE DANCE.

I vote for the Michael Jackson Zombie on the David Brin bookcover. With or without lasers, he is baad!

The way I understood the canon is that when you hit a Shield with a laser you got an atomic explosion.

Double Plus ungood...

Ah, but when Harness endowed his characters in "Paradox Men" with bullet-stopping Shields (as an excuse to have them sword-fighting instead), that was *before* Herbert included Shields in "Dune", and so is more canonical...
