As far as this match goes, meh, Im not sure. Either could probably take it, and my opinion could likely be swayed.
Just...
Seriously, if you want to hate on a character to be cool, hate on the Hulk or on Storm or some such.
Hating on Wolverine has just become tired and old.
Well SOMEBODY didn't get some tonight... ermmnone

Oh, and Wolverine ftw.
Here's Dragon pulling himself off the spike after he spent two weeks on it in an unconscious state. Notice his hand has been blown off too. He somehow healed from this. Not as impressive as Wolverines healing factor, but then again, Wolverine cant throw tanks around with little to no effort either.
I seem to remember seeing this scan along with the rest of the story once before (there was a Savage Dragon craze for a while at one point), and I remember that being VERY soon after he was thrown onto the spike. Am I incorrect? I thought it was only a few moments of unconsciousness before he removed himself.
Please though, correct me if I'm wrong.
I'll be honest, I have the first 30 or issues of Dragon as I liked him a lot, but I havent read them in a long time. I found his respect page for the scan and it was stated there that he had been out for two weeks so I cant back that up. I could look for the comics when I have time, but that would be a day or so.

Here's where I got that info.

His healing factor is pretty decent.
but I mean, is that it's normal rate?
like how "battle practicle" is it?
for example, beast has an accelerated healng factor that allows him to mend bones and crushed organs within a couple of days... but his HF doesn't account for much since it's not fast enough to counteract the punishment it will be taking in any given fight ( as they are more prone to last minutes rather than days)...
So regardless of whether or not dragon could heal from being gutted, could he heal from being cutted in a few minutes, could he continue to stand if he was?
If he doesn't have an HF on wolverine/sabretooth/hulk's level than I don't see him as being much different than a skilled brick, but without an HF being a brick and having skills still doesn't mean you'll beat logan in h2h, and if consistancy means anything... it probably means the opposite.
Well, here's a scan of him using his arm thats been cut off and he's beating his enemies with it. Thats pretty crazy. I've also seen him fight while most of his body has been sliced to ribbons by an enemy before so i'm pretty sure he could take some punishment.

You do realize that I want to say Savage Dragon wins this really bad, dont you?
LOL, that IS hardcore...
how would he fare if logan gutting him or punched him in the fae throat you think?
indeed I do. I'd like to say wolverine wins, but my bias aside, I need to know the full extent of savage dragon's abilities before i can make that call... though that pic goes a long way in convincing me that he might just take this.
I'm really not sure how he would react if he got stabbed in the throat or if he would even live, but he's had some serious stuff happen.
Here's where he gets a hole blasted in him and he survived this.

Check out that respect thread posted on the last page. It's got some pretty sweet stuff.
There's a scene where Dragon is fighting off two guys with what appears to still be the gaping hole in his chest from the impalement of the spike. It honestly looked to me like he could get gutted and still fight just fine. And he was still missing a hand, too.

Well, pretty much. He went flying out of a window of a skyscraper and then landed on the steeple (which gorged another hole in him), but he survived.
I have the first 10 issues of the series and some of his limited mini, and he nearly died from bullets from the Super Patriot. Did he get an upgrade that I'm unaware of?
He seemed to get consistantly stronger and more durable throughout the series.
Again, I cant call the matchup with Wolverine as i'm not sure what would happen, but besides a pretty effective healing factor, the dragon has the strength of most bricks while possessing way more speed and agility. It would be interesting to say the least.
