Title: cross-overs
Post by: The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers on April 10, 2006, 09:28:08 AM
finally, it seems one has been done right. Hulk v. Wolverine.

Here's the cover (http://www.saintehlers.com/misc/images/hulkwolvcover.jpg)
and an interior page (http://www.saintehlers.com/misc/images/hulkwolvpage.jpg)
That just looks freaking awesome.

Hulk wins with one little stomp of his massive green foot.

You know.. technically wolverine should be ridiculously athletic.

If you body repairs that fast, then everytime you work to gain muscle.. it should be there almost immediately.

You see, when you work out or sctretch, all you do is tear the muscle, and then it regenerates with more of it. So... he would just have to stretch and lift a few weights every hour or sooner.. and be gigantic in a few days.

, and while Hulk just near/completely invincible the more angered he becomes... Wolverine could still kill him at the very very start. My bet is on Wolverine....that's my rant.

Yeah, I'm going with Wolverine too. I mean, think about it, he has an indestructible skeleton, so trying to crush him wouldn't work terribly well. And he heals tremendously fast, so you can't make him bleed to death. The only real options are to either get inside his ribcage, and get at a vital organ, or to jar his head so greatly that he has a fatal concussion. The first one is no good for Hulk, since he doesn't have a great deal of finesse. The second one is possible, but I think that by the time Hulk had the opportunity for that good of a head shot, Wolverine would have gutted him with his claws.

Yay, two people with anger management issues going at it. This should happen more often.

Also, Hulk has super-regenerative abilities like Wolverine. So Wolverine would slice an arm off of Hulk and it would grow back. Wolverines best chance is to sooth Hulk into passivity so he turns back into Bruce, then kill him.

actually, Hulk has a great deal of finesse when he wants to.

I'm thinking all he really needs to do is pull Wolverine in half.

Exactly!

Pffff.. You can't Pull Wolverine in half!!...Only Magneto can do that..

Besides, what kind of fighter wears purple shorts? I mean... really.

But why oh why must they fight? Hmmph, boys! Er, mutants. Did Wolverine take a joy ride in Hulk's H2 or something? Anyhow, even if Hulk tried to pull Wolverine apart, Wolverine could just slice off Hulk's hands in a snap, before he himself is snapped. I hope.

well, seeing as, to pull wolverine in half, he'd probably have one massive paw grasping wolverine's arms, and the other on his legs, I don't think Wolvy would be cutting anything off.

Why couldn't he pull him in two? he's got adamantium bones, but not ligaments, as far as I know. He won't be dealing with adamantium to separate those bones.

Unfortunately, neither of these two seem to think all that clearly in a fight. So would Wolverine think during his raging attack to cut off Hulk's hands? Would Hulk think to pull a part Wolverine's ligiments while in a blind fury?

Stay tune. Same TWG time. Same TWG channel.

I'd prefer a Winnebago.

"I want a Winnebago."

Post by: 42 on April 13, 2006, 08:58:27 AM
It's good to want.

Can't decide who should have Winnebago (cause you know I have one) ::). Should it be Hulk? He would jsut break it. Then Wolverine? But would it smell bad after a week or two?

Bring on the next Hulk vs. Wolverine challenge.

The Winnebago would bash Hulk's face in.

If it pleases the court, I would like to introduce Exhibit A...

Exhibit A:

I have nothing more to say regarding the matter.

It's like the Hulk was really the Fonz.
Title: Re: cross-overs
Post by: FirstMateJack on April 17, 2006, 01:00:21 PM
Pff, the Fonz without a leather jacket! That's like America without McDonalds or Wal-mart!!

Although.. that brings up a good point... who would win in a fight, Fonz, or Stiltman!!

HOLY COW THIS IS GREAT.

Ok, spoilers below...












Hulk *does* pull Wolverine in half.
"Sniff, Sniff Sniff... My legs... I can smell my own damn LEGS. Sniff Sniff Sniff... Four miles. &%$#er threw my legs four miles. Up. &%$#er threw my legs four miles UP."

So he goes off to search for the legs. This is an awesome story.

Issue 1 ends with "Hi, Bruce. SNikt!"

The pic of the interior page that E poster has two smaller inset pictures at the bottom that show Hulk ripping Wolverine in half.

It took me until you posted this quote to remember my friend telling me about this comic. I can't remember anything else though, except that he had thought the hulk would win.

By the way, what's the point of having an adamantium skeleton if your ligaments are normal, it's not like his healing wouldn't be able to handle broken bones.

Secondly, can't he regenerate internal organs?

Edit: Nevermind, the answer doesn't really matter since they never kill superheros.

After reading issues 1 and 2 I have answers to those. All of this can be learned from the first 8ish pages of a 6 issue mini-series, so I don't really consider it spoiler (and it doesn't say anything about the fights, other than Logan is torn in half, which happens on page 1).

his body apparently repairs organs, but does not replace them. He can't grow new legs back, but he can regain his legs by reattaching the old ones and letting it heal. Apparently the healing factor is what is keeping his bowels inside the trunk of his body as he claws his way up 4 miles of mountain.

Hulk, on the other hand...
Logan is being paid by Nick Fury/SHIELD to hunt down the Hulk. Banner killed 815 (64 of them kids under 13) people when he hulked out in New York after learning Betty was now dating someone else. He was convicted and SHIELD was charged with executing him. Banner submitted himself too it, and let himself be chained to the ground so Iron Man could drop a nuke on him. He Hulked out at the last second and escaped.
They found out he was around still because they found one of his fingers. However, Hulk has all his fingers still, so apparently, Hulk will grow limbs back, even though Logan won't.

His joints aren't normal. They're adamantium too. Hulk's just that strong.

I won't spoil the story at this point, but I think everyone fundamentally knows that neither Logan nor Hulk will be killed in a 6 issue miniseries... at least not in a way that lasts beyond the miniseries. However, I think they've already, in the first third, provided really excellent reasons why it won't go to the death. It's very thoughtful, and I think it's brilliant. I'll be happy to spoil if anyone really wants.
