I'm pretty sure Wolverine has less mass than mountains.

An adamantium skeleton would insure that Wolverine would go flying away, and not break apart. He can heal from that kind of damage. In that case it would be a stalemate, but if Wolverine "ever" got close, the battle would end quickly..


With Wolverine blown to smithereens.

No. Look at what happens when Cyclops hits anyone with his beam. It just knocks them flying. It does not cause them to disentegrate. Any damage sustained from being knocked a great distance, Wolverine would survive. Even if he hit him into another object (such as a wall that he didn't go flying through) he would just pin him there and it wouldn't damage him. Think of it like a pressurized stream of water, only its focused energy and not water.

Then he could keep knocking him over and over and over until he knocked him into the ocean and drowned him. Just don't leave him the time to recover.

Besides, adamantium isn't even all that strong. You can still kill characters in FF7 that wear Adamantium Bangles.

Are you just acting stupid?

No kidding.

Its no fun to have a nerd argument if one person doesn't even know what they're talking about. :D

No I'm just saying that you can still get a lot of damage done to your characters with adamantium armor. Lets say optic blasts from Cyclops are equal to Flare. That still does a few thousand damage. WOlverine probably only has around 12,000 HP.

Just because he has Regen doesn't mean it keeps working after HP is depleted.

He had his spine ripped out in the comics once. If I remember correctly, magneto REALLY messed him up, pulling him apart and he managed to survive or something like that.

Magneto ripped all the adamantium off of Wolverine's skeleton and out of his body. He was left intact otherwise.

How, exactly, could he be left "in tact" if his bones were basically ripped from his body? Wouldn't he be a pile of bones and bloody mass?

His bones weren't ripped from his body. The adamantium that was placed on his bones was ripped from his body.

Name of comic and issue? (Was it an Xmen or a wolverine comic?) I'd like to buy and read this. I remmeber it from yeaaars ago but would like to read it for myself

They've fought before, and it's always been a stalemate. I'm just saying, it's not as clear as you make it out to be. The cyclops that can vaporize mountains would come from the same overpowered comics Wolverine would regenerate an entire body. The comics try to balance them, but if the battle ever came to close range, cyclops couldn't survive the claws.

As for adamantium, you're basing that on another universe made by Square, that has nothing to do with this adamantium. In the x-men universe, it's the hardest/strongest known material ever discovered.

Also, why isn't Wolverine the field leader then? Easy. Because Cyclops has a higher attack rating and can kill anything. He just pretends not to be able to beat Magneto because Magneto is a bvtch and he wants Wolverine to fihgt him so that Magneto can fvck him up (Because Cyclops hates Wolverine because he's a little bvtch).

Or maybe because Wolverine isn't quite level-headed enough to be a team leader? :p Also, you have to consider the environment the two are fighting in. Out in a forest/jungle/etc... Wolverine no contest. He'd sneak up on Scott and given him a good ol fasioned disembowling. However, on an open plain? Not sure Logan is quick enough to close distance without getting hit. Best case is Logan puts tons of distance between them so he can avoid attack easier, Scott is unable to close in, fight is a stalemate. Kudos on your hilarious Page 1 posts btw. :laugh:

Edit: Yes, I realize you're just trolling for Comic Book nerds with hard-ons for Wolverine.

The adamantium in the FF universe is not the same adamantium in the Marvel universe. The fact that you're trying to interconnect the two automatically nullifies you from this debate. :p

(i didnt read any prvious posts)

i would choose x-men because i would be able to stay the dominant species :D If the brotherhood had their way there would be no non-mutants, so you wouldnt have as much of an advantage...it would suck having to put up with their bitching though :p

Fine. But at least agree that Wolverine has a serious attitude problem and needs to be hanged from his ear lobes until he learns some respect and discipline. Cyclops is a real man.

It was in the Uncanny X-Men. Don't recall the issue number. I actually have it stashed in my comic boxes somewhere...

I think I actually have that comin here somewhere. I remember it, as after I found out about it I just had to have it.

I'm trying to remember why they were even fighting one on one.

I seem to remember it being an X-Men comic, but I don't know for sure.

I'm actually sort of glad they didn't have Wolverine jumping around like Yoda in the latest Star Wars movies... that was just wrong. :p

Yeah, she sucked in the movies. They ruined her and basically everyone that was closely tied to her. Mystique was a weirdo in the movies, Gambit wasn't even in them, and she herself was just totally different.

Or maybe you're too dense to understand a little humor.

Besides, Cyclops would still win. His optic blasts are powerful enough to destroy a small moon. He's also much smarter than wolverine and MUCH quicker than you might think. If Cyclops hits him with just one blast, wolverine would have to recover...and that takes time. While he is recovering Cyclops could repeatedly blast him and use his full force to incarcerate him.
