No. Wolverine says he is faster than Laura, so by extension Bone-claw Wolverine would be even more so.

He said that in a seriously OOC story (for both of them) which the writer wrote before the details of her character were out. I wouldn't take it seriously at all.

sigh she has legitimate superhuman speed above wolverine in her bio in the marvel x-men bio. i'll try to find the right bio and post the scan.

not that we go strictly by bio's but helps to see what marvel places her along side the other fellow wpn x'ers..

either way she possess superhuman speed an reaction her having trouble with logan is a combined problem of skill, durability and experience/anticipation and speed burst along with his hyper reflexes.. its how logan makes up the negligible difference with her

Pish-posh - It wasn't OOC at all. Laura was a pissed of wierdo and Logan was Logan. That's par for the course. I guess she wasn't all emo cutting her self though... is that what you take offense to?

I don't think she developed the emotion of pissed-off until most of the way through her NXM run, so that's your problem right there 🙂 She's an emotionless weapon on a mission who speaks in clinical/technical terms.

Doesn't talk like Laura, act like Laura, or fight like Laura. It's really obvious it wasn't her character.

How does he win the second scenario? He doesn't have the speed, skill or healing factor to tangle with Laura and not get put on ice. She's going to tear him up. His bo-staff and some grenades doesn't even begin to level the playing field. She healing factor is far to much for Slade to deal with, and his healing factor can't handle the damage she is going to dish out.

ahhh......I think I see the problem here

You're flat out under-selling slade here.......I just don't know how else to put it 😬

slade has always bn a loser to me at 1st he seem cool but it quickly faded as soon as he came out..

skill wise i put him only as a lvl 4 and his stats make up for the rest making him appear better then he really is and compete with peak humans.. without it out he cant hold his own against another meta lvl being whose skills are superior to his,,, its like he is a moderate size fish in a guppy pond.. throwing him into a bigger pond with bigger fish or smaller size pirahnas who can kick his @$$

Slade

Deathstroke can at least cause some trouble to Wolverine -with his equipment-. I think he can win against Laura.

His staff can fire a destructive beam that once vaporized a Helicopter.

How does he not have the speed? He's reacted to and thwarted a Flash speedblitz FFS, surely you don't think X-23 is faster than the Flash.

PIS, that's why. Even though he's punked out Flashes multiple times enough to become legit.

He's not even close to Flash level speed, Jake, but his senses and insane reflexes allow him to react to things much faster than he himself.

As an analogy consider a man catching an arrow. The man doesn't have to be as fast as the arrow to react and move in time to intercept it, he just has to be fast enough. Which Slade is in relation to Flash.

Now Slade could never tag a fullspeed Flash but Flash doesn't always have to be going full speed.

My comment was more sarcasm than anything. I just notice that a lot of DS's detractors tend to ignore him tagging Flashes or taking on entire teams at once at best or dub it PIS/jobbing at worse.

But, yes, I agree with you. 🙂

usually flash is moving below mach one speed when he is jogging after guys like slade and having conversation with cops and ambulance ppl to get help and the wham a shot or a trip by slade.. not much of a feat to me..

ppl try to pass it off more then it is

That's not the only time. He's also stabbed Flash during a fight and physically caught and beat down Kid Flash when Kid Flash was blitzing him.

No prob. I have the entire run of Deathstroke's comic series...I probably could at least start a decent revamped respect thread if I had time.

You're seriously lowballing DS there.

What can you expect from a guy with Deadpool in his sig?

Yeah well, it is PIS and jobbing. No matter how many times it happens, it is always dependent on a blunder by the flash. The point is the feat is meaningless as it doesn't prove anything about DS's speed being higher than anybody else's because the flash must be moving slowly for it to happen and deathstroke himself gets tagged by and misses far slower opponents all the time. So does the flash by the way
