Wow Spiderman sure does look amazing in toy form. That is a tight suit especially on the lower region. Surely toys shouldn’t be that well endowed?!
Yeah it looks like more than just his Spider Sense is tingling there…
The Harry Potter parody looks to be very good.
A real world Dora the Explorer…damn it my brain just died from sheer sadness.
Batman vs Wolverine was BA
But I would like to point out that batman most likely wouldn’t fight him unless he knew what he was up against.
i hate people like you… sure batman is smart but ffs hes just a man. wolverine would take him no problem.
…on a purely physical/powered level, sure.
If Batman is able to prepare against, or even just to study, his opponent, he actually can defeat (or, at the very least, fight to a draw/escape from until next time) damn near anyone. That’s not even hero worship; it’s simply the nature of the character (at least in the last 10-20 years).
Except that wolverine is at least as good a fighter as batman. I saw an issue where wolverine out fought shang chi, without using his claws, just straight hand to hand. Shang Chi is the “best” fighter in the MU, and wolverine took him. Add to that, you can’t study wolverine’s moves or style because he’s one punch away from snapping and going all berserker. Hack ,slash, dead bat.
Batman is very skilled, but Wolverine has adamantium laced bones, claws and a healing factor that allows him to survive almost anything.
Wolverine: 1
Batman: dead
(And I would just like to point out that I think Batman is the most awesome superhero ever created and that he’s my all time favorite superhero)
The Avenger and il princerino…
I happen to agree. HOWEVER, my point was that Batman would have at least a possibility, a chance, of defeating Wolverine. Batman, as a character for the past decade or two, has been the goto guy for the superhero community whenever a supposedly impossible situation arises. HE is the one EXPECTED to solve it. Often, he has does on his own. I also do not think he would have turned his back to call Alfred or stopped looking at him while making that call, as he did in the video.
I thought the video was very cool, and I found that both characters were presented quite well. I was simply playing Devil’s advocate AND supporting Brandon who, DESPITE Corey_1993′s statement to the contrary, was CORRECT. Batman, having just seen a brutal murder, would have taken a moment to find out some more information (simply observing Wolverine as he moved on, asking Alfred to look up any police/military records on the mysterious murderer, etc.). It’s highly possible that Batman would have even known who the victim was and would have, thus, thought maybe Wolverine is just a rougher, more brutal good guy.
Of course, there are two final facts to consider: Batman, while a mere mortal, has taken down some incredibly powerful opponents, either with aid OR by himself (granted, often temporarily, especially since he does not kill), and Wolverine, while damn near impossible to beat, HAS BEEN beaten, sometimes embarassingly easily.
I do not say it WOULD happen (particularly given the story in the video), but it COULD happen. The video could easily be manipulated to show that Batman calls Alfred…skip ahead…SWAT or military handlers (or fellow X-Men tapping into any frequencies to find the missing Wolverine) come and retrieve the purturbed, just-awakening anti-hero.
All of this, of course, is just fun speculation based on a very cool video.
Sigh…In my first paragraph, that should obviously be: “Often, he does so on his own.”
Mind…fingers…must work…together.
Yes, good old “Lara”* Croft
Wolverine’s arms should be bare, not covered. But still, the costume designs in that short are excellent. That’s one of the better live action Batman costumes I’ve ever seen
Wolverine’s costume looked pretty good, now I’m really wanting a movie version that’s closer to the comics. It doesn’t look nearly as goofy as one would expect.
That Tumbler golf cart is awesome! I would get one to go with my Batman costume. Think I’d make it nine holes?
