Are these two shoes comparable or not really? I'm in the Ravenna 2 and would like to go Nike.

Not really, IMO. Brooks is much softer, and is more stable than the Elite. The Nike has a tighter toebox, and a very stiff toeoff. I'd hesitate to put them in the same category.
not exactly the best answer, BUT I used to run in the zoom elite and then switched to the brooks axiom. I found that the brooks was much softer and a little roomier in the toe box than the zoom elite...they discontinued the axiom and started making the ravenna and I didn't see a huge difference in the two and still use the ravenna (and have the R2 now)...i'm not 100% sure, but the lunarelite might have replaced the zoom elite, but is still a similar shoe.
Unless the Lunar Elite 2 is a vastly better shoe than the Lunar Elite, stick with Brooks. The Zoom Elite was a great shoe, but I gave my Lunar Elites away after 30 miles.
