Nightcrawler vs Spiderman

Started by Scoobless7 pages

Spider-Mans body is more "elastic" than normal humans as well....... this lets him perform acrobatic feats that others cannot

They might both be able to tight rope blind folded on a fishing line......but Spiderman is much much quicker than Nightcrawler when it comes to movement speed.

Nightcrawler is the more agile of the two. Nightcrawlers agility would be his only advantage. Nightcralwer already having been an acrobat gives him extensive ability when combined with his unique build. When his ability of teleportation is added into the equation . His agility and quickness should be able to throw spideys senses a bit. However, Spiderman is much. much stronger, and has an incomparable level of endurance, and webbing.

Nightcrawler is not as agile as Spider-Man, he's better than human but not enough to say he's on Spidey's level

Saying Nightcrawler has years of acrobatic experience doesn't prove that he is more agile than Spiderman.

Actually, Spiderman flat out danced circles around Nightcrawler and the rest of the X-men in Secret Wars.

I believe he even had a smug comment for our teleporting friend.

That issue is the only piece of evidence pointing to towards Spidey over X-men. Quit ussing that!!!!
I think that if Night is smart, he'll teleport back and forth 'round PP and kick him when he's confuzed. But that don't work 'cuz of Spidey's endurance. And that is really Night's only strategy, so SM takes it.

And where is the evidence to point that Nightcrawler > agility than Spiderman? 😕

It's a comic...in continuity.....get over it.

For such an awesome teleporter...it's kind of weird how Nightcrawler usually only gets 2 hits off on his opponents before they are able to guess where he's coming from next.

I like how the guy in Ultimate X-men stuck a knife right in Nightcralwer's gut. But that isn't continuity...that's just something I liked seeing.

spideyman plus teleportation wouldn't work on spidey he has a spidersence

I'll agree with Scoob and Link on the point of speed and agility, Spidey's has NC outclassed.

Now give the two the same strength and durability and you have yourself a match. However, when you factor in the other abilities in which Spidey is highly superior to NC and an ability that NC doesn't even know Spidey possesses much less have himself: the spider sense, I just don't think that NC's teleportation will be enough to surprise and overwhelm the webbed one.

Nightcrawler tangled with Spiderman once and if anything Nightcrawler was above Spider-man in the agility/speed area.

What issue?

I've never seen NC portrayed as fast enough to dodge bullets as with Spidey, or agile enough (or creative with his own agility enough) to dance around guys such as the Hulk and other guys much larger than he as well as attacking them from multiple angles as Spidey has.

It was an old Spider-man issue (earliy 80's I believe) on the cover I think Punisher had them both in the scope of a rifle.

I'm being quite serious when I say this and says nothing to my own argument: Anything with Punisher in it is crap.

I dont disagree

I know its hard to beleive but if you get a chance to look at marvel universe card set # 2 it will show you that Nightcrawlers agility is extraordinary one off the highest rating given although it does show his speed to be slightly slower than Spidey However stamina is equal

Isn't Spidey's?

And how could their stamina be equal? Spidey's given it a go aginst Morlun for twelve hours with broken ribs!

Spidey's superior reflexes to NC combined with his own elasticity and agility puts him quite a bit above NC in that area I'd say.

Oh my god.

Someone used the friggin cards as a reference.

Get the hell out. COMIC BOOK versus forums. Use the friggin comic books as references.

Isn't the spider sense there to give Spidey a great increase in terms reaction time?

Sounds like assisting Spidey's reaction to an attack ala accelerating it helps more than it hurts.

You know guys I take back the agility thing. Nightcrawler has way..... more agility than spiderman. Check out X-Men 2 and look at spiderman 1 and 2 spiderman's agility does not come anywhere close to nightcrawlers agility.

Nightcrawler beats spiderman in that department.


If anything the train fight scene in SM2 proved movie Spidey was quite a bit more agile than movie NC.....it was really NC's teleportation in X-2 that made him look good.

Why the hell are you basing anything on the movies? Go kill yourself. Now.

Spider-man is MUCH FASTER then Nightcrawler, but Nightcrawler is more agile. Why? Because Nightcrawler is quadrodexterous. Meaning: His legs are as dexterious as his arms. Plus his tail lends him balance, and he can use that too.


Well, I think that Spidey's own elasticity coupled with his reflexes more than concurs with quadrodexterism.

Not by leaps or bounds or anything like that, but I'd say that Spidey is his superior.
