you would be suprised how hard you can throw somthing without trying.

youve played darts right? next time you do instead of giving it a little toss really put the steriods/technique into it and you can put a blunt dart halfway into a way


thats different. a dart has a point. even a dull dart has one point where all the force goes, making penetration easy. an object doesnt have to be sharp to get through a watermelon(i can push a quarter into a watermelon) but it does to penetrate skin.

No what I ment was a dart with the tip completley removed, Imagine a unsharped pencil with a flat tip.

Most top shaolin monks are taught how to throw a needle through a glass window. it makes a hole the size of a marble in the window. some chinese assassins have been known to possess this talent. using needles like bullets.

i wont believe that shit until i see it.

i think a guy was interviewed in ripley's believe it or not who could throw needles through glass.

Interesting, but it contradicts itself. Wonder Woman is second to Superman in strength, but yet J'onn and Superman are the same strength? Why isnt WW second to Superman AND J'onn? (I always thought that Supes was a bit stronger than J'onn. You learn something new everyday)

How is it contradictory? He simply typed that she is second to Superman as opposed to typing Superman AND J'onn. Considering Superman and J'onn are equal, isn't that self-explanatory...?

No, current Superman is not stronger and has said on many an occasion that J'onn would best him. J'onn is far too versatile.

Also, was Batman in the corner drinking coffee after they fell GL? I guess the response was that he allowed the heavy weights to take care of themselves as he watched and studied. Oh brother. I also guess that the other six JLA members were retarded as it was stated that Batman has taken down the JLA before,,,,,,,,dont you think they would concentrate on him first?

You are assuming that this scenario follows current DC continuity (or that they are aware that he created protocols already although they were secret until Ra's Al Ghul discovered/happened upon them). Who is more of a threat at the outset? Batman? No, the three powerhouses are the biggest threats to one another. Not sure why it is not logical to conclude that they would focus on one another initially. Ever seen a Royal Rumble on WWF, for example? More often than not (hence him posting ONE scenario), all shoot for the "big guns" first.

I know its all nit-picking, but it hardly seems like an accurate scenario.

Oh well, back to the topic, Never an honest question to you,,,,,,why do you look at Ogun as a joke? I only know of him through the older limited series, but I thought he was portrayed as a pretty mean martial artist. I realize Wolverine killed him in the end, but Wolverine was truly afraid of him. He ran like a scared school girl. Wolverine isnt the baddest cat as we all know, and he's been taken many times,,,,,,,but he doesnt usually scare very easily.

"Older limited series." Kitty Pryde vs. Wolverine?

As regards to his martial arts prowess...when compared to the likes of Iron Fist, Shang Chi, Stick, Stone, Shaft, Star, Karate Kid, Gamora, Karnak, Elektra, Daredevil, Lady Shiva, Batgirl...yes, his accomplishments pale in comparison. Wolverine killed him, and Wolverine falls below everyone mentioned above. What more is there to say...?

just asking cause i don't know their true skill, but what about the mandarin, silver sammurai, and matsuo tsurayaba?

Mandarin, if I recall correctly, is the character with the rings? Scientific genius, not a martial arts threat at all.

Silver Samurai? Decent, but does not deserve mention with the elite by any stretch of the imagination. He ran with Viper.

I am not familiar with Matsuo.

Matsuo Tsurayaba is a wolverine villian and apparently, the supreme leader of the hand.

This is the problem with all of these versus threads. The continuity is hardly ever established and you end up trying to think of every possible variable known in the last 40 years of comics and so forth. The initial reading stated that Batman had taken down the JLA before,,,,thats what I based my ideas upon. I agree with you about the heavyweights concentrating on each other initially. Why? Because Batman is thought to pose no threat what so ever to them. Another reason he is so overrated. I'm just saying that if Batman had taken down the JLA before and they were aware of it (or even aware that he had a means to defeat them on a solo basis), i'd be betting that they took him out first.

I see where you're coming from.
