Lightsaber versus Claws: Maul v Wolverine

Let the bloodbath begin...

I would go for Maul, but isn't it true that Wolverine can never die?

He can, but it's REALLY hard for him to die, with a lightsaber though, any hit will hurt him BADLY.

I would say a lightsaber is able to cut through andamantium (is it spelled like that ?).

If yes, Wolverine is getting killed within seconds.

If not. Well...that would be hard for Maul. At least he can force push Wolverine into some nice lava bath or throw some real heavy things at him. That will hurt enough I guess.

LS's can't cut through adamantium.

As I said: If it can't cut through adamantion, Maul can't win here, since he can't kill Wolverine. Just throw so much things at him that he gets burried under thousand tons of waste.

They have a giant thread about this on the comic board. My stance was that the saber wouldn't cut the adamantium but would pass through his body as if it did. Meaning he'd have big searing disks cut out of him.

I seriously doubt that even adamantium claws can match a lightsaber... I say Darth Maul...

The problem here is folowing:

Wolverine has the ability to recover very fast from wounds.
Actualy he has a complete scelleton being made of adamantion.
Lightsaber wounds don't bleed because of instant cauterization.

Well. Maul could cut through Wolverine until he hits some of Wolverine bones. Wolverine will actualy nearly lose no blood here. Only things Maul could do:

a) Cut Wolverines inner organs off. Will that kill him ?
b) Hit Wolverine direct in the eye with that lightsaber and turn that thing around a few times so most of Wolverines brain will get desintegrated. Will that kill him ?

The question is: How much physical damage has to be done to Wolverine before he dies ? I don't know...

darth maul since it can cut through metal

Did you not read the last 3 posts? Anyway, massive loss of blood caused by a lower power setting on the lightsaber, as done by Kun, would kill Wolverine, as with loss of major organs.

Maul cuts up both Wolverines claws with his double saber in one swipe. Then just stabs him. It's that simple.

Because lightsabers are a weapon of science and adamantium easily survives direct nuke hits, I just go with sabers not cutting but not blocking as not to have to deal with fanboys whining about the strength of adamantium.

Is this post aimed toward me?

I read in a Star Wars book that lightsabers are a beam of energy capable of cutting through anything, except another lightsaber blade. I'm not sure thought that George Lucas had adamantium in mind.

This is true. It is mass accelerated to 3.0 x 10^8 m/s. The only thing it cannot cut is another sample of pure energy (blaster bolts, lightsaber beams, etc.) I don't think Wolverine would stand a chance. Here it is, though:

No, since Wolverine was shot in the head and he still lived.

Energy transcends density. Adamantium is no match for a lightsaber. And say, for the record, that Wolverine got cut. The wound would be instantly cotorized by the heat of the lightsaber, so I don't think Wolverine could heal himself. His body would no longer be one functional system. If he were cut at his waste, for example, the wound would be burned shut, so that it is no longer healable (if a blood vessel is snipped and then the cut ends are burned shut, they cannot be put back together - Wolvie would suffocate or have a heart attack or something like that, assuming he wasn't cut in two, I am fairly sure). This is most accurate conceptually. Not to disagree - I used to like Wolverine a great deal. However, medical and anatomical science is not disputable, I think, in this case. So one side is right regarding this matter.

I don't think adamantium's ever been cut.

And it's comic science. Wolverine is a beast beyond logic due to fandom. He's regenerated from burn wounds before which means when it comes to logic, he just doesn't care.

But the blaring weakness that every non-pro-wolverine arguement has pointed out is the spinal cord.

Instead of attacking the strengths like amateurs, exploit the weakness. Take out the disks!
