Doc Samson vs Black Panther

Started by deathslash3 pages

Isn't Samson's strength and durability linked to how long his hair is? I rememer that when his hair was shorter, he was having trouble with the russian equivilent of Captain America (what was his name?). Anyway, Panther's claws are Vibranium, so if cuts off Samson's hair, Samson should lose a considerable degree of strength and durability. Am I correct in my assumption?

Yeah his hair length determines his physical stats (or at least his strength). But if Panther is stupid enough to get that close, Samson could rip him in two.

He looked very, very strong in Thunderbolts despite his buzz-cut.

Hasn't that power been cut

Pardon the pun

Samson could rip him in two. However, since samson really isn't that skilled in h2h(at worst his h2h skills are around Rhino and at best he's marginally below Luke Cage), I'm confident that T'challa could dodge him while cutting his hair. Also, If Panther stays back and throws his energy daggers, I think that they could also cut his hair.

That weakness is no longer in play.

Even if it was, he'd be too durable with short hair.

to durable for Vibranium claws? 😕

Purely Vibranium claws wouldn't denote being particularly sharp, seeing as they'd just absorb kinetic energy...

From Priest's run they certainly didn't seem that sharp.

Panther has gone through secondary adamantium Ultron with his daggers.

Didn't go through Kraven 313

I don't think he was using vibranium in that fight and I'm fairly certain that you know that too.

I do 😛

Daggers will work.

I don't think he'd be able to do much damage with the claws.

Has this been stated on panel? If so, where?

It hasn't.

Going off assumption after his bits with Jen and Bobby/Moonstone.

T'Challa just sent one of Thanos' generals, Black Dwarf, packing.

Yeah, I was really surprised to see that after all the hyping Hickman has been doing for the Obsidian Cull. All this about how each one is a match for entire Avengers rosters, not a very impressive debute if you ask me.

Wolverine? Please!

Surfer>Samson

Surfer armbar for the win.

You heard?!

It was in New Avengers 9, the fight was off panel.
