Golden Age Superman VS Wolverine

Golden Age Superman VS Wolverine

GA Superman with those specific GA powers. no prep. no bfr. fight is in a forest in almost total darkness.

who wins?

1. upon a KO lasting 10 minutes or more

2. until one of them is destroyed

Superman wins via telepathic will control:

That scan looks Silver Age to me....

Anyway GA Supes should take it, he is faster and stronger than Wolverine and could easily toss him over the horizon

Depending on the year, there was very little difference between Golden Age Superman and Pre-Crisis in terms of levels.

i think he means "jumping tall buildings" superman.

Yeah I think that is what he means.

Wolverine can win some with these stipulations and this Superman.

GA Superman can be killed by Wolverine's adamantium claws. Wolverine can always get punched around like a ragdoll.

I think Wolverine wins scenario 1 because it will be kind of tough for SUpes to knock him out for 10 minutes me thinks.

2nd one is even harder for Supes because....how will he destroy Wolverine? Could Wolverine flat out destroy Supes? Would like to know what he means by "destroy."

The setting also favors Logan. I don't recall Superman having all the vision/hearing powers back then, but Im probably wrong.

ko for 10 minutes is just flying wolverine into space and wait for asphyxiation to kick in. destroy is just taking him along for a sundip and leaving him their.

Even Action Comics 1 Superman is still faster than a speeding bullet, and more powerful than a locomotive.

Yeah, the claws could hurt him, but how's Wolverine going to catch him?

Superman 45, 1947. It is totally golden age. Silver age starts with barry allen's premiere in 1956.

So awesome telepathic will control LOL

Wolverine shreds Superman's cape into pieces

Any Superman > Wolverine.

wolverine has a measure of resistance to telepathy thanks to xavier. it doesn't matter anyway since logan's willpower is the stuff of legends AND because The Super Hypnosis "telepathic will control" to which you refer is a Silver Age power... and thus has no bearing in this fight. This is the 1938 GA superman.

also, a couple things. the GA superman i'm referring to is the one introduced in 1938. this superman was

- only strong enough to lift a support beam or car with one hand
- only fast enough to pass an express train
- could only leap 660 ft.
- heavy weaponry & even a speeding train could destroy him

This Superman also had

-Superhuman control of face muscles.
-Telescopic Vision
-Super-sensitive hearing

there is no mention of Super Hypnosis "telepathic will control" powers with the 1938 golden age superman. I hope this clears everything up.

uuuuuuuuhhhhhhhh.....correct me if i'm wrong, but the Silver/Bronze Age Superman was introducted in 1940.

as for flying wolverine into outer space or throwing him into the horizon as some posts suggested....this superman cannot fly & isn't strong enough to throw logan any significant distance. no BFR in this fight anyway.

Should clearly give him the win here. One of the most awesome super powers of all time.

then back it up with definitive proof to the contrary; even if it is
disputable it doesn't make jack sh!t difference. this is the 1938 GA superman; this version didn't have super hypnosis.

It's not disputable, you're just wrong. Don't get butthurt because you made a ludicrously vague thread and somone found a loophole.

He has the psychic scar tissue, too. Recently he no-sold Kid Omega's tp attack, though Quire wasn't focused on him.

There's always berserker rage if everything other fails.
