The enchanted Asgardian metal vs the man made, god metal, Adamantium.

Which is more valuable and more durable?

batdude123
You'd think Uru, but eh......

srug

Priest
i would say admantium.

cowboy
Admantium cause Wolverine has it shifty

manorastroman
uru. uru=adamantine, and adamantine is the legendary element the good doctor named "adamantium" after.

that's the most definitive answer you're liable to get. that is to say, not very.

darthgoober
Truth be told I'de say that adamantium trumps non-Odin Enchanted ure as far as strait up durability.

Evangel94
Durability
Non-enchanted Odin enhanced uru vs True Adamantium = True Adamantium


URU is easier to enchant with spells, and it holds those enchantments much easier and much longer than adamantium ever could.

Uru enchanted or not is still a MYSTICAL metal.
It's magical by itself.And beings like Odin can put further enhancements in it.Mjolnir was destroyed only when used against the likes of the Celestials and the combined might of 4 hammers of the same levels which caused it to get broke in half.
Adamantium is nothing compared to it.
Thor can rend to pieces adamantium anydays, but then Ultron wouldn't be the team wrecker he deserves to be, so he gets hard time with him.

grey fox
Adamantium.

Thor once carved Uru simply by shoving his finger into a lump of the stuff and making a square. I have yet to see him do the same to Wolvie's Skeleton.

hunbu04
Hercules golden mace is made of enchanted adamantine > true adamantium
and Echanted adamantine = Uru

leonidas
adamantium is the second hardest substance behind cap's shield. uru might be next, but i don't think it's really ever been stated to be anything more than 'really hard' . . .

hulk10
URU!

KillAll
Thors hammer has been destoryed atleast twice???? once when he blew it apart fighting a celestial. and once somewhere in volume 2, somewhere in the first 20 issues ( i can find out the exact issue number but it will take some time). this however wasnt from a celestial power level being.... it was from an odin level being (shown to be well below celestials).




uru has also been melted down to slag. but, this was also from a celestial level being.


uru isnt all that hard. it just has the ability to hold enchantments. the enchantments are what make it strong.

adamantium to my knowledge has never been shown on panel to be broken?????? atleast without being retconned away. so i'd vote for it.

leonidas
well, gladiator did snap a claw off of wolverine in a possible future . . .

What about when Thor made a huge friggin' dent in Cap's shield? erm

Cap's shield isn't made of adamantium, it's a vibranium/steel alloy. And it's actually stronger than adamantium.

I know. That's what I was saying...

Jonathanos
Uru, the unenchanted form, is not as durable as adamantium.

When Odin removed the enchantments from Mjolnir so that Thor could fight the Hulk HTH, Thor feared that the Hulk would be able to destroy the hammer because its enchantments were removed. (JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #112) Thor believed himself at least the Hulk's physical equal at the time so logically he must think he is able to destroy unenchanted uru.

(BTW, Thor's carving of uru has gotten exaggerated a bit. It was a cliffside that contained some uru, not a cliff of pure uru.)

Between Mjolnir and adamantium, I don't believe there's any way to conclusively prove which of the two is more durable. But the topic doesn't specify Mjolnir so I'm saying adamantium.

Sorry Darthgoober, but yes it is....Cap's shield is made from an adamantium / vibranium alloy that has never been duplicated. That's why it's so tough. It's made from both metals!!!!

No, he's right. The shield isn't adamantium. Adamantium was created while attempting to duplicate the metal of the shield.

Some writers have mistakenly referred to it as adamantium but it isn't.

I'm saying the shield was dented, and Mjolnir didn't have a scratch on it.

Nope. It's a vibranium/steel alloy.

Here's a scan where the creator of the shield and adamantium explains it. Adamantium came later and isn't the equal of the shield alloy.

Yes, but he was using his father's power. A few pages later, he casually pounded the dents out of the shield with Mjolnir.

Mjolnir was still made out of uru was it not?

Could you do me a favor and tell me what issue of Captain America that scan is from? According to www.marveldirectory.com AND www.classicmarvel.com , they BOTH say that Cap's shield is made from a vibranium/adamantium alloy.

Yes, and that's why it's so hard for me to not believe. I could maybe believe it if one site says it and the other one doesn't...(possibly a type-O), but BOTH sites I posted confirm this to be true...and I'd always heard and believed this too. I remember even in the Spider-Man cartoon from the 90's, in an episode with Captain America, they even said the same thing...that his shield was made from an adamantium/vibranium alloy.

you are 100% correct. and it is harder than regular adamantium. adamantium WAS indeed made while trying to duplicate the shield. and odin could melt the shield if he wanted. the only way to affect it is to alter its molecular structure, something odin (or thor with odin's power) could do.)

I believe it's CA #302 but I could be mistaken.

Websites aren't continuity. The Cap scan is. Its take on the shield's metal has been backed up elsewhere, including in an Avengers back-up story.

Jonathanos
If you want a couple of websites to back up the scan:

http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix2/maclainmyron.htm

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_America's_shield



(So I was off by an issue or two. It's CA #303 or 304.)

That was never stated in the comic... It didn't even appeared to be charged...

Jonathanos
There was a trail of energy behind the hammer.

Iron Man was shocked that the shield had been dented.

As he repaired the shield, Thor said his father's power was greater than one might think.

But even if you believe that Mjolnir is more durable than Captain America's shield, that doesn't mean anything in regards to unenchanted uru and adamantium.

Rogers' indestructible shield has often been referred to as being an adamantium-vibranium alloy. This is not the case: adamantium was only developed after Rogers was revived from suspended animation, during MacLain's later experiments to try and duplicate the material of the shield (the substance made its first appearance in Avengers Vol. 1 #66, July 1969).

The adamantium-vibranium error first arose in the Captain America entry in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe (the composition of the shield was accurately described in the adamantium entry) and was propagated in several subsequent stories by writers using the Handbook as a reference. The error was corrected in "Captain America" #303-304, in 1983, which established that the shield is made of vibranium and steel, but that didn't prevent the error's repetition over the years.

I could be very very wrong here but, I thought Wolverine had an adamantium laced skeleton long before cap was revived? Not that he appeared before this but, he was sapost to have had his weapon x experience before that. Like I said I could be very wrong thou, can anyone help clearify?

It was later suggested that someone... Darkwind was his name, I think... had invented the same metal back during WWII and MacClain independently duplicated it years later and named it.

WOLVERINE # -1, I think.

Don't see the energy trail, or the Odin force being used..... especially since Thor stated in later issues that he didn't use the Odin force much if at all.... Odin than told him to trust himself with the power so it could be unleashed...

Yep looks like pure strength...

Could be, but the shield was probably accidently made before that as it was intended to be a tank hatch, I think, before it was Cap's shield.

Jonathanos
You don't see the energy behind the hammer? There's a big burst of it around the word balloon ("For I am their god!"wink and it leads right towards the hammer.

With Thor's later comment that his father's power is greater than one thinks, I believe that's implying the use of the Odin power in denting the shield.

Swanky-Tuna
It does look like he's charged up with something but there's no telling if he was using it to attack the shield directly or if he was charging himself up physically to do the deed.

Oh, OK, I could see it going down like that then. But I also was one of the people that always believed the shield was a vibranium/adamantium alloy.

A little off topic here but, I have wondered could Superman crack or even dent the shield? Since the only way its sapost to be harmed is by messing with its molecular strucher? I don't mean by vibrating his fist at superspeed either, just by a full powered punch from Kal-el.

i agree with the implication that the odin power WAS used. in the past, thor has never been able to affect the hammer. i recall a scene where cap had thor test his reformed shield (after the beyonder smashed it, i think . . .) and thor gave it all he had and couldn't even scratch the shield.

bigbran
Ok.
Thor dented Cap's shield.
Thor cracked open Exitar's head with a hammer blow. You think Adamantium is going to do the same?
Thor threw his hammer threw the Destroyer with Desak inside it.

Times it got broke:
Destroyer in his first appearance cut it in half with his disintegrator beam.
When he used it against Exitar's dome piece so he could destroy his brain.
When it hit three other versions, of his hammer.

Wolverine's claw, when it got broke:
S'ym.

Compare them...

leonidas
the desak and shield denting incident occurred while thor was backed by odin's power. they should be left out of any comparisons. they are at least questionable. fact is, WITHOUT the odin power, thor has never been shown to be able to affect the hammer. and while it's true thor broke exitar's dome, the godblast failed to do anything more than tickle juggernaut. jugg's shield>exitar . . .? sue storm has also shattered a celestials armor.

s'ym is a magical being (seeing a pattern here, btw . . .) and that's how that instance was explained, as far as i know.

King Thor, so not RKT who fought Desak, is not backed up from the OF.
He could do SIMPLE tasks, like blasting, and matter rearranging feats, but he hadn't control over it.For him he was something to summon and still use in basic manners.He didn't need any charge up.The energy which surrounds Mjolnir in the issue is the same depicted like lightning in other issues, depending on the drawer.Thor did ever goes out full strength in Avengers issues?He could have ended Kang's war on his own if he wanted to.The shield dented and flying like 300 feet away is what you get when you piss off the Thunder God.

Just little extra power. What that is saying, is that Thor is too weak to damage the Destroyer, but with a lot more power, he is able to rip through it.
Could King Thor with an adamantium hammer destroy the Destroyer?
Same goes for Cap's shield.

The dome piece was more durible than his outside... don't ask.
Actually, Juggs got knocked back a couple feet. when Thor used his godblast. I think you are thinking of when Thor threw his hammer, and it bounced off Jugg's shield.
We already know that Juggs is pretty much invunerable.

Wasn't the Sue Storm incident, because that was Exitar's weakness, like Kryptonite is to Supes? Exitar isn't weak to Thor's hammer.
Not to mention, wasn't that pis, on Sue's part?

Gladiator then, in a future possiblity?

meh, COULD be. all's i'm saying is that the presence of the odin power makes things at least questionable. desak handed thor his ARSE before he became KT.

without the odin power the shield was impervious to thor. he becomes KT and suddenly he can dent it. coincedence . . .?

i'm not saying it's impossible to think thor alone could do it. mjollnir IS magical and thor IS uber. but even if it COULD dent it, that still doesn't mean uru harder than the shield -- just that it's magical enchantments allow for it to do some crazy-ass-sh!te!

like i just said -- even allowing for the possibility (which i again disagree with) that thor with the hammer is capable of denting the shield, that speaks more to the magical nature, imo, than the 'hardness' of the uru.



nah, i meant the godblast incident. and while it DID back him up a step (if i recall) it still didn't 'harm' him.



it was a little pis-sy i'll concede. we just don't really know how 'hard' the dome really was. cap'
s shield (like jugg's invulnerability) is renowned throughout marvel. course the shield>adamantium. we could look at how thor has fared against ultron for a more appropriate answer. and the answer to THAT question is . . . not all that well.

here's a little bit i found at marveldirectory.com:

Over the following decades MacLain experimented, attempting to duplicate the process that create the shield. Finally, in recent years, he succeeded in developing the process by which the substance known as True Adamantium is created. True Adamantium is nearly as strong as Captain America's shield, and is, for all practical purpose, indestructible. The degree of impermeability varies directly with the thickness of the Adamantium. A direct blow from Thor's hammer, conveyed with the thunder god's full strength, will slightly dent a solid cylinder of True Adamantium.

for what it's worth. erm



yeah, that happened after wolvie fought glads for seven straight days (i think -- anyway, a LONG time . . .) wolvie hanging with glads 1on1 for . . . days!?

isn't that the literal definition of pis . . .? confused

The enchantments for themselves aren't what makes the Uru hammer so strang.Uru itself is something beyond common materials, something able to damage Celestials even.
KT or not, Thor written well, not with "hold him back, the Avengers are a team, not a solo series" can punk Cap shield anyday.

If it was Loki shooting the shield, then that would be straight magic.
If we say that everythign that Thor has damaged was due to magic, then how hard exactly is uru?

Him crushing it, should that be considered in this discussion?

if you mean 'strong' i'll disagree. uroc is made entirly of uru. however, powerful as he is, he lacks the odin level enchantments of mjollnir . . .

clearly, the level of magical enchantment obfuscates the true 'hardness' of the uru metal. without enchantment, there really isn't any doubt, imo, that adamantium (let lone cap's shield) is the harder of the 2 substances. smile

maybe the scan (that you forced me to dig up mad ) will help answer the question a little? stick out tongue





the thing is, thor was able to ADD to the enchantment, apparently, by adding his girdle. he seems to have made it 'stronger'. does that mean harder? uru is a sponge. i think it becomes impossible to seperate the uru from the magic it is endowed with. the stringer the enchantment, the stronger the uru -- as my scans show.




believe me -- there's not likely a bigger thor fan on the forum and i am NOT downplaying the feat. smile just saying it is not really a demonstration of 'hardness'. specially since it was a blast that blew the dome up, anyway . . .



that wasn't true adamantium, nor am i sure he actually crushed it. i remember the scan and have the book but can't recall all the details. have you got the scan or issue number?




but cap's shield>adamantium so i think the comparison is moot.

Hasn't Odin said Uru was indestructable? Also, does the magic actually make the metal harder?

But Thor's hammer already has the enchantment of Odin.
I don't remember Thor ever blessing it with power.

If he can dent a cylinder (how big is this cylinder?), then who is to say that he will have no effect on Cap's shield?

the more important thing it is saying is that uru can be AFFECTED by nitrogen . . . cap's shield has no such problem.



imo it does. and if odin has said that, i (a) don't recall, and (b) he was wrong. big grin



yes, imo. but that's just opinion based on my understanding of how uru works. he also actually alludes to the power of odin being unstoppable in your scan -- not the hammer itself.



not sure. he SHOULD, i'd think. especially considering his power was given to him by loki.



can't recall all the details, only that it was NOT true adamantium. i DO believe that hulk bent adamantium, but i'm not sure it was said whether or not it was TRUE adamantium.



i KNEW you'd say that. but we have no way to determine just how thick true adamantium would have to be to equal cap's shield, (caps' shield works differently from adamantium -- the vibranium ABSORBS and REDIRECTS the energy from a blow, rather than simply deflecting it like adamantium would do) nor do we know how thick the adamantium would be to resist thor's hammer. because of all the unknowns, your point basically becomes unarguable.

good find.
Dident Hulk once crused Thor's mijinor and never was able to snap pure first grade adimantium?

srankmissingnin
Primary Adamantium has never been broken in 616 Marvel, Uru has. Every example of Adamantium being broken has been retconned to being Secondary Adamantium or was an Alternate reality version of Adamantium, which is also irrelevant. Adamantium is superior to Uru.

Priest
im sure Primary Addimantium will be broken in the next Incrediable Hulk book. shifty

using Mjolner as an example of the durability of Uru is fallacious. Not all Uru crafted things can control the weather and generate energy blasts- the reason Mjolner is so powerful is because of the enchantments on it. I'm not saying that Adamantium is harder than Uru, I'm just saying that it's faulty to claim that all Uru crafted things would have the same properties of Mjolner.

True Admantium is straight up Marvel's only constant. It has never been broken with pure brute force alone. Uru can't say the same. It got chopped in half by a very, very sharp blade.

He blasted it, he didn't physically dent it with a punch. It also was an alternate reality.

No, it was the future, that Thor went back in time to stop.

I didn't state otherwise. Simply pointed out that it was destroyed. However when Mjolnir and Caps shield did meet, the shield came out damaged.

It was cannon. Before you ask, go look at the last pages of Thor v2 #80.

An alternate timeline is just that. It's canon, but so are most of alternate timelines and alternate dimensions.

The difference between being blasted by Odin force magic and taking a physical hit are two different things.

The difference between being blasted by Odin force magic and taking a physical hit are two different things. It was going to happen though, if Thor didn't go back in time. Not if someone got shot, or if Jesus still ravaged the Earth.

It was an eyebeam, and it's a baseless assumption to say it Odin Force magic.
Unless every attack used by Odin is magic...

valuable = uru hands down. it's not from earth, shit, not even from the same dimension (ultra rarity) and it's a virtually perfect reservoir for trans finite energy of pretty much any type.

durable = primary adamantium, better feats of durability

I would disagreed the only time Ura has been damage was thru magic as Thor has stated.

Same can't be send for Adamantium

Adamantium has been thrashed by magneto.

leonheartmm
uru. mjolnir is rarer and more durable than wolverine's skeleton.

leonidas
people need to start making a distinction between uru and mjollnir. uru is a "magic sponge". it soaks up enchantment. (which is why i think adding his belt of strength to the hammer when he blasted exitar actually DID make that blast more powerful because he added the belt's enchantment to the hammer . . .) the more enchanted it is, the more powerful it is, the more durable it is. mjollnir is enchanted by a skyfather.

adamantium>>uru

adamantium vs mjollnir is closer. i still say adamantium based on feats. on again on feats, cap's shield>both.

The best proof is when king Thor blast Logan and Cap's sheild metaled or bent poor logan and trashed the shield and we have see enchanted uru take on the odinforce without getting efffected. defecting it not absorbing it of course.

Just to clarify, are we referring to plain Uru here or enchanted Uru? If the latter, what degree of enchantment? Pretty important in determining how durable the enchanted Uru actually is.

i . . . don't even know what all those symbols mean. the size of the cylinder in relation to the hammer is meaningless. an iron door is bigger than an aluminum baseball bat but if i swing hard enough aluminum (much weaker than iron) would dent the much larger door.

no expression

that MAY be the worst interpretation of a metaphor in the history of kmc.

my point was just because one material dents another DOES NOT prove that one material is HARDER than another. wood, if swung with enough force can dent the far harder iron. size has . . . absolutely NOTHING/ZILCH/ZERO to do with my point. seriously.

Yes he had the ODinpower in that fight but in the reigning he didn't

some posted saying Doom has destroy/damaged mjolnir but as far as i know he only stole it and was trying to harness its power

Anyway the whole point of this is that enchanted uru has only been damaged thru magical mean Adamanitum has been dented from the scan"a dent is a dent and then Maneto rearranged its molecues. So that why imo Enhanted Uru is greater

that's also inaccurate. molecule man destroyed mjolnir i think, and magneto has affected it in the same way he affected the shield. perrikus also cut the hammer in half, as has the destroyer (and it wasn't his disintegrator that did it, it was blasts from his hands) and thor's own godblast was also enough to destroy the hammer.

in contrast the odinpower has destroyed the shield and the beyonder has done the same. the odinpower blast (contrary to what you'd like to believe) is non-canon as it is an ALTERNATE future, so really only the beyonder--the most powerful being in MU history--has destroyed it.

It's worth noting that when Reece unmade Mjolnir alongside Cap's shield, he was a lot more impressed by the shield's makeup than Mjolnir upon remaking the items he dispersed. Perrikus has definitely sliced Mjolnir into two. The battle against Exitar also left Mjolnir in pieces. The Destroyer, well, destroyed Mjolnir. Mjolnir was also destroyed and damaged in battle against some storm giants and Bor respectively.

While the debate here isn't between Cap's shield and Mjolnir, ignoring OF Thor, we have the shield only being damaged/destroyed by Thanos/IG, PR Reece and Doom/PR Beyonder. Even when counting OF Thor, OF Thor > Destroyer, and Mjolnir was destroyed by the latter, which is inferior to OF Thor, meaning that using Thor's feats against the shield count for little here.

On the topic of Uru, the metal has some lower feats as well. Thor carved a replacement for Mjolnir with his bare hands. Uroc's right hand was destroyed after being frozen by liquid nitrogen and shot. On the other hand, adamantium has survived meteoric impacts in the near absolute-zero temperatures of space, amongst countless other incidents of durability.

In my opinion, Cap's shield > Primary adamantium > Enchanted Uru.

btw Uroc was not same as mjolnir (writers said so themselve) the only magic he had was to make him alive not harder so not same magic. basicaly Uroc durability= plain uru, not mjolnir, so comparison dont work here. we dunno how the liquid nitro trick would work against adamantium

same with destroyer, it dont count cuz it was never tested against caps sheild (tho Marvel bio does say it can cut thru "any substance known" so that include adamantium too)
and ditto w Perrikus, it was magic sword of a dark god, it slice mjolnir but wuz never tested against the sheild so cant compare either

you gotta learn to quote better. some of your replies were in the quote box attributed to me.

where did thor dent the hammer without the odinpower? the eyebeams destroyed it, but where did he dent it with the hammer? i assume during the reigning somewhere.

and like i said, molecule man destroying the hammer was NOT magic.

and you can say it as often as you'd like, but the reigning is an ALTERNATE FUTURE. if you don't like the fact that it is non-canon, well . . . take it up with the rules committee of the KMC . . .

btw Uroc was not same as mjolnir (writers said so themselve) the only magic he had was to make him alive not ahrder

The answer is "not necessarily better, but not necessarily worse; just different".

Uroc isn't the same as Mjolnir. Definitely. Was just a series of statements on Uru itself.



Yeah, just like it is coincidental that in the two issues after Thor's adamantium testing, Thor repeatedly hit Ultron, without doing any damage whatsoever. The same adamantium that Thor supposedly dented.

where did thor dent the hammer without the odinpower? the eyebeams destroyed it, but where did he dent it with the hammer? i assume during the reigning somewhere.

and like i said, molecule man destroying the hammer was NOT magic.

and you can say it as often as you'd like, but the reigning is an ALTERNATE FUTURE. if you don't like the fact that it is non-canon, well . . . take it up with the rules committee of the KMC . . .

Le me clear it up before the reighing Odinpowered Thor Dented Cap's Shield.

Fast foward to the reighing arc Thor was cut off from the Odin power killed logan with so sort of blast and bent /damaged his bones. Then he goes and kills Hulk and Thing with one arm. Next Cap fights Thor and during the fight Thor blast cap's shield with some sort of eye blast and destroy's a part of the shield and killed Cap.

after the Reighing Thor goesd back into time to the current 616 reality and merges with his self.

Since The merger happened in the normal time learn of 616 Thor's feats carry over to the reg timeline.

And Molecue man is no normal being as you know

by feats and history, shield>hammer ok, cite 1 durability feat where u can direcly compare hammer & sheild. just 1 (like somethin which damaged sheild and hammer woud not survive, or somethin which damaged hammer but wich sheild woud survive)

lets stick to examples where there WAS damage when the 2 colide big grin and surprise surprise, mjolnir never ever get damage



btw the Thor hittin Ultron & causing no damage wuz pure PIS, explain how come Hulk who aint even pissed can put a crack in Ultron armor with his BEAR FIST, yet Thor with his HAMMER cant?

also wasnt the Thor in Thor vs Ultron writen by Busiek? (the same guy who allways underwrite Thor & even make him vulnrable to bullets? lol)

seriously??

we don't see INSIDE the cylinder. how the heck can ANYONE know how thick the cylinder is! it's much larger than the hammer though. it's . . . right . . . at . . . the . . . bottom . . . of . . . your . . . scan!

the blue thing thor is standing in front of IS the cylinder! this truly is the most blink discussion i've ever had in the forums . . .



ahhhhhhhh . . . . now you're getting somewhere. smile

there is nothing in common which would allow that kind of direct comparison. so we need to look at other things. which have already been discussed over and over.

thor's hammer has uber durability, no doubt, but fewer things have damaged the shield, hence, i say the shield is more durable. it's really that simple. it is of course a matter of opinion at the end of the day, but that is mine, based on the evidence we've seen.

i also think pure adamantium is harder than the hammer, based on history and feats.

Cap's shield > Primary adamantium > Enchanted Uru

Your replies are honestly giving me a headache from the deciphering. Would it be too difficult to spellcheck and spell out words properly?

As far as collision damage goes, you do not need an object of higher durability to cut another object. Would you argue that water is harder than steel? I guess not. Mjolnir has been damaged far more times than adamantium, though. For instance, in a collision with non-enchanted (iirc) Uru. Still want to cherrypick feats?

I would not claim PIS if I were you. Comic book physics doesn't always work the way you want it to. Just let it go.

the cylinders as thick as a pen or somethin
even marvel handbook say "small cylinder" so there

uh no it only mean the hammers been thru a LOT more. basicaly its been tested more then the other things (no kiddin its a waepon) so obvously it got damage more often. its a statistic thing, simple


btw whats the point in havin a hammer thats a unique waepon when theres a substance that earth can mass-produce that woud be harder then the hammer, lol kinda takes away the point in havin that hammer in the 1st place does it

Would you argue that water is harder than steel? when both are solid (rigid ) then yeah u do. how dyou think they test hardness (cf Moh scale o hardness)


nope

hey i swear man, PIS exists in comics! true! big grin

I'd give the contest to Mjolnir over adamantium.

The main problem, story-wise is that Thor's hammer can always be remade. The shield really can't by easy means or else is would be leaked into the criminal community like adamantium has been. Though of course Cap's shield isn't adamantium. :-)

Don't have to it was clear that future Thor merged with current version616. So feats stand unless you get a mod to say else wise



obviously, but neither is he magical.

MM is beyond must abstract beings so you rright he is greater then magic and if iam not mistaken his orgiins were on a cosmis level as see when the beyonder and him combine into a cosmic cube.

Diamonds can be broken by far less than another diamond. Hardness isn't all-encompassing when it comes to durability. Bronze saws, for instance, are used in diamond sawing.

I will admit that I cannot recall if Loki placed any enchantments on the giants' hammers. As far as I recall, he was only looking for the forge. In any case, true adamantium has NEVER been physically broken by anything less than universal threats. While it isn't a perfect comparison, it alludes to how durable adamantium is. Denting =/= breaking.

believe what you'd like. at this point it clearly doesn't matter what anyone says.



of course. a statistics thing. cuz cap's shield hasn't been through anything. no expression



dear gawd . . .

stop talking about the gods in a COMIC BOOK WORLD, like they should automatically be greater than the HUMANS IN A COMIC BOOK WORLD just because YOU think so. 60yrs of comics outweighs what you THINK things should be like. do you even know anything at all about the shield, or adamantium?

regardless, i'm done with discussing this with you. you're giving me an aneurysm.

u admited youself, u cant rilly compare cuz the hammer n sheild have never been thru same kinda tests

the only real test wuz when they went 1 on 1, and then only the sheild got damage (instead of hammer, or both hammer and sheild)

this aint even about the gods its about the hammer. its suppose to be unique legendry weapon yet your sayin it aint even as tough as substence thats mass produced. kinda takes away from the "legendray" factor dont it lol
