Superman>>Adamantium

supes has servived a black hole hasnt he, and planet destroying blasts?

Is this the point where I track down the quote from the writer that states Franklin like all little kids exaggerates?

At the same time, please realize that Franklin is given to hyperbolic statements about his parents' achievements, as are almost all kids of that age."

Too bad Crossovers aren't considered Canon.

No Non-canon Sources

A canon source is one that is regarded as being 'in continuity'. In the example of Star Trek; instances from the series and movies can be used, but books are definitely out. Comic book crossovers are usually unusable as they ignore common sense most of the time (DC vs. Marvel is certainly unusable in some cases in our debates!).

Depends... forums rules say nothing about them being banned if you read carefully. It leaves things open to interpretation.

Dan flip flopped the issue on that statement.

How did he flip flop?

First he says that Reeds is capable of inventing the device.

At the same time, please realize that Franklin is given to hyperbolic statements about his parents' achievements, as are almost all kids of that age."

Then he says Franklin may be exaggerating.

For that to be a flip flop he would have had to say that the beam that hit Superman could cut through adamantium, you'll notice he never said that.

He didn't say that it couldn't and he also gave reeds props that he could invent the device.

Dan went the safest route and chose his words very carefully.

Nice job being a fanboy Ava

And nowhere in his carefully picked words did he say that Reed ever built such a laser or that Superman was hit by one, what he did say was that Franklin was prone to hyperbole, that gives us every reason to doubt Franklin's statement and zero reason to accept it as truth.

Plus that comic isn't canon.

Had someone intelligent said something, then maybe it would have mattered.

Right. Read it again... basically it's "he's capable or building one, but his son is also capable of exaggerating." Flip flop answer.

Never said that it was.

I have other reasons in believing he is, but thought I'd share the scan anyway.

Got to give credit were credit is due smartass

I'd say that DD's Bone Shards cutting him indicates he is a far cry short of True/Primary adamantium

I'd say a effortlessly surviving in a double black hole and repairing time/space with his body make adamantium a far cry from Supes.
