Superman vs Adamantium- which is more durable?

well he's being referred to as invulnerable when not under red sun or any type of krytonite, aslong as he has a supply of our solar energy he is invulnerable.

For someone that is invulnerable he sure seemed to bleed when WW cut his throat, and didn't Zod break his jaw

fighting zod under a red sun, superman had been previously caught with kryptonite against wonder woman... nice try though, kudos to ya, but when he doesn't have these things affecting him he is known to be invulnerable, also WW is predominantly a magic weilder as well lamo

Brute Force Adamantium is by far more invulnerable than Supes.

Energy Assault Supes is by far more invulnerable than Adamantium.

just my 2 cents.

put it this way, superman => adamantium

with kryptonite or red sun or magic

superman < adamantium

Nah, pure Adamantium is supposedly unbreakable, no amount of physical force could brake it while Supes has been injured by physical forces present weakness unaccounted, however adamantium is not resistent to heat at certain boiling points.

Here is a question for the people that think Superman > adamantium.

Do you also think Superman > Cap's shield

It has been categorically stated countless times in the comics that these are the times Superman can be hurt.

If none of the above circumstances are present, it's fair to say that he's as tough as adamantium.

Unless he is being written by Geoff Johns or MArk Waid.

Which of the circumstances above were present, when DD killed him in DOS, or broke his arm in H/P?? Or when Darkseid broke his wrist by simply by grabbing him hard?

Can adamantium take the heat of the sun? Doubtful

Supes chucks it into the sun and comes back 10 minutes later and uses his ice breath and shatters it 😛

How would it hurt him if it actually fuels him instead. IIRC, he was only affected by the gravity the yellow sun possesses whenever he dips.

Are we comparing Supes to a bar of adamantium or a large block of adamantium? And also, Supes has a forcefield, so comparing how energy attacks effect him compared to adamantium is kind of futile.

*edit*

And what grade of adamantium?

I throw a solid bar of Adamatium at Superman, but first coat it with Green Kryptonite dust.

well lets not look at it with retarded situations, say you got in one corner superman and in the other a life size adamantium superman, same dimensions as superman, like a copy of him as this metal.

THe same amount of damage is thrown at them, which comes worse off... well it depends, because sometimes they out do the other in durablility airgo the aloofness of comics, making discussion a F****** never ending discussion no matter how ridiculous it may sound.

He was exhausted.

Or haven't you read the comics? 😕

My aforementioned stipulations about Superman's invulnerability have been stated countless times by Superman himself and by others, throughout decades and decades of Superman comics.

If Superman is exhausted, ala his fight against Doomsday, then he can be wounded as his energy stores are so low, that using his powers drains energy from his invulnerability aura.

And if someone with magically derived strength, such as Wonder Woman or Captain Marvel punches him, his invulnerability is diminished somewhat as the energy that powers them interferes with his aura. His invulnerability isn't 100% gone against magical punches, otherwise if Cap/Thor/Diana etc punches him, his head would explode rather than just bleed.

The only instance I can think of where he has been made to bleed without Magic/Knite/RedSol/Exhaustion is by Equus, who managed to scratch his cheek with his claws. But that goes against statements made by countless characters and feats from countless Superman comics, so I wouldn't consider it canon anymore than Spidey beating Firelord.

However, it has been stated countless times that Superman is not just incredibly tough, he is Invulnerable to everything apart from certain stipulations.

Throw a nuke in his face, no sod that - a thousand nukes, nay - a million nukes.

He will survive uninjured.

But attack him with a magical knife and you will make him bleed.

Adamantium is also vulnerable to magic. 😖hifty:
