C'mon now, the kid would know who wins before drawing it. (it's Vader)

[–] Pxtl@lemmy.ca 39 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Vader has The Force, but Wolverine can recover from whatever injuries he gets. Vader has been removed from battle by serious wounds at least 3 times so far.

Do lightsabers cut adamantium?

[–] klemptor@lemmy.ml 14 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is there a known material* that lightsabers don't cut? Serious question.

*Beyond that time ~~Kylo~~ Emo Ren had a hissy and attacked a console, that thing should've been way more damaged.

I was thinking of the one from Dark Forces, but I guess all of these are non-canon now?

[–] Pxtl@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's kind of a moot point anyways? I mean, how good do you think they're going to be at parrying under this circumstance? They're both gonna get stabbed in the chest.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 25 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Yeah but that will kill Vader and mildly annoy Wolverine.

Vader should Force Push him off a walkway with no handrails, it's his only option.

I think if he used Force Aneurysm that would probably work temporarily but if lightsabers can't cut adamantium it's just delaying the inevitable.

These are the hard hitting debates that bring me back to the Internet every day.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Could they move the nipples separately? If yes, then one nipple blade to block and one to stab?

[–] H1jAcK@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There is a large amount of discourse on this topic

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You know, I was thinking about Superman and Goku the other day...

[–] Quentinp@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How about the hulk with a red lantern ring?

[–] nxdefiant@startrek.website 1 points 2 years ago

Green lantern rings are willpower right? I'd give it to Vegeta with a green lantern ring vs hulk with a red one.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Nah, in canon, it's been shown to be resistant to similar types of coherent energy. It might slightly mar the surface because of the heat, but it wouldn't cut it. And even the heat thing is my giving the light saber properties beyond what's shown in film and in books.

[–] Phlogiston@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's always difficult to merge worlds but maybe adamantium is roughly equivalent to beskar or slightly better.

I think wolverine would win in that fight. He's got lots of experience fighting many different enemies varied power including "throw things at him" and can take a ton of damage. In contrast vader will be a bit surprised by the healing abilities, commentary and hidden armor.

[–] tias@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

That was my initial thought too. But if Vader can stay at a distance and force-choke Wolverine until he's passed out, then Vader could move in after it's safe and basically burn up every ounce of Wolverine's body except for the adamantium using the light saber.

[–] bassomitron@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'd think so, as far as I'm aware they can cut thru any metal if given enough time. In the movies and TV show the only thing that fully blocks sabers is another plasma/laser type thing.

[–] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Enough time is the key phrase here. Adamantium absorbs a goldly amount of energy in the marvel universe, to the point of being literally "unbreakable" in a canon with a fuck ton of different energy blasts/weapons.

Vader aint going to melt it in the span of a hand to hand fight filled with glancing nipple saber blows.

Sans force powers, wolverine takes this.

[–] bassomitron@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Good to know, I can now rest easy knowing the most likely outcome of this nipple duel!

[–] FederatedSaint@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah I was surprised how long they took to get through (start to melt) the blast doors in the first prequel.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I mean, Vader could force chuck him out into space.

[–] Mirshe@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As far as I know, Wolverine would survive this. He might not be conscious until he reenters an atmosphere conducive to human life, but the Hulk has survived being thrown into space many times.

[–] ExfilBravo@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

One could argue that his regenerative healing could make him alive burning the entire time in severe pain until he got back to a habitable planet. Nightmare fuel.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

The actual winner would be Snake Eyes from G.I. Joe, who comes down from the ceiling, does sick throwing star moves and kills both.

[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks@programming.dev 30 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In Japan, you make anime with these types of ideas. In Keijo one professional athlete judo throws another using her (the thrower's) nipple.

[–] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 years ago

No idea is too ridiculous for anime. I've hardly even seen any anime and I've seen some ridiculous shit.

[–] quams69@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

SNIKT has got to be the funniest onomatopoeia to read

[–] palordrolap@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You clearly haven't seen the comic where Captain America's shield hits its target with the onomatopoeia "WANK"

[–] poszod@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Amazing comic, didn't need the 4th panel at all.
