Could Superman (or the hero of your choice) die if shot with an adamantium bullet?

The piercing depends on the velocity of the bullet.

If its just a 'mild' factor then pretty much all supers have em I think. I mean almost all of them heal faster than humans right?

yeah I know but it doesn't really help him here. Again I'm just saying if the bullet has enough force i mean if it comes out of a glock i don't think that would be enough.

Anyway his aura is great but he has been cut and pier ced and stabbed by things that were far less from indestructable. (granted they have hjad the force behind it which is the deciding factor for me).

If the argument Can Adamantium pierce Supes yes.. yes it could and that goes teh same for goku.

Thats i disagree with IMO maybe some crazy sniper rifle ... if not a railgun shooting adamantium bullets should definitly do the trick.

Although Connor has more direct control of it, I take it that not only does Superman have ultra-dense physiology, but in the sense that bullets bounce off of Connor -- who is a clone of him and his powers -- because he wills them to, so too does Superman. No bullet is penetrating him.

He might have a small degree but that aspects of Superman has pretty much been abandoned

it's sometimes one, sometimes the other, the best guess imo is that it's a bit of both.

that's one.

Other examples...

Superman Batman #2
Superman is shot with a kryptonite bullet by Metallo. He's barely strong enough to remove an electrified drain covering. Mere seconds after the bullet is removed from his skin, he's up and about. He's able to block heat vision with his hand and briefly match a future Superman in h2h combat.

In the Superman book, post infinite crisis, i don't recall the number, a future Khyber mentions that Superman has "prodigious healing powers"

If you want more, i can go digging.

hmm, don't know goku from nothing, but in supes case, i'd think it COULD kill him were it supplied with enough energy. i liken it to wolverine trying to cut superman. no, i don't think logan could cut him, but give his claws to hulk and you would have a definite argument. were the bullet fired at say close to lightspeed at his head? then yeah, i'd say it would probably be enough to kill him. shrug

umm yeahhhh.

Adamantium or not, a bullet still doesn't carry sufficient force to pierce Supes. Also...

Comic Book Vs Forum Rules

Keep them comic related.

- If there is another forum for discussing the characters, they are banned. This includes game characters, anime/manga, and Star Wars.

Re-opened for a time.

Thanks and by the way, I dont think either could be hurt by an adamantium bullet.

Just to be clear, if this is going to remain open for any time at all, talk of Goku has to be done away with. You can substitute other comic characters if you like...

If thats you raoul, come on, its goku, whats wrong with talking about him?

but thats says nothing of the BULLET; in *that* scenario its all about the FORCE behind it.

IRL, I think a coil/railgun could do it.

correct ...

however this raises the question how strong is logan he cuts Hulk regualrly , and hulk skin's tensile strength is too mucg for a high calibre bullet

and also how adamantium bullets can peirce hulk and normal bullets can't

Logan is able to cut Hulk becuz his A-metal claws are SHARP.......and he'll always retain (thru the typical comic BS-physics) the necessary STR/force needed to penetrate.

but correct me if Im wrong here: in his 1st appearance, was Logan able to cut Hulk or no?? Im a bit foggy on that point.....

Agreed

bullet bounces of supe (if its PC supe anyway)
bullet goes thru goku but he regenerates

guess the arguement here is could adamnatium cut through Superman?
