weapon h vs superman

You're thinking of Tower of Babel when he vibrates the instant he feels Batman's bullet hit him.

Or n52 Flash who does the exact same thing. That's exactly what I was picturing in my head.

Those are both good examples, but it's neither of those that I'm thinking of. It's a different one. I just can't ****ing remember what comic it was.

Elektra tagged her pretty well.

Now, now, I know. A low showing, perhaps? But my point is, it is pretty much Weapon H's ONLY saving grace here - and even in Domino's hands, it isn't infallible.


Fair, but you may be looking at her power wrong. She's not unhittable of course, but I'd argue it is infallible for what it does. It's more accurate to say the power creates a path to her goals provided one exists. If that means she gets hit or falls along the way, then that is what happens. Thundra tagged her too, but Domino still beat her. Sometimes the power drags her through the mud if she abuses it, but it will still be a net positive outcome.

This was all before her training with Shang Chi though. She has control over it now, and it isn't quite as susceptible to her emotional state like before. She can waltz through groups while they beat themselves at this point.

Now, there's always Domino's power. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. This is the character who Deadpool dances around

When was this? The arc with Mercury's dad?

Domino and Deadpool exist in the same section of the X-verse, so they've scrapped or scuffled several times and Domino usually(basically always) comes out on top. The most recent example had Deadpool complaining he couldn't even touch her while she tagged him at will. He was armed with guns and she was barehanded too.

Sabretooth interrupted, but I get the feeling Neena could pull a Mr. X on Deadpool if she wanted. She regularly punks him in and outside of fight contexts. /shrug

Has Clay done anything to suggest he has Domino's luck power?

Only statements and possibly the "bullets and bracelets" scene, to my knowledge. It will probably be forgotten, as it presents obvious narrative problems on a character like Weapon H.

Even as a Domino fan myself, I feel like luck based characters are pointless on battleboards. There is no clear way to discuss them. The very nature of their power is a gamble. Sure, characters like Domino hit their limit if something is impossible, so maybe stopping just shy of that boundary could be a fun thread. Everything else is just a gamble though. If they can get lucky, they probably will. If they can't luck out, they lose. No real way to debate it.

Anyone can try to protect their face with six big ass blades. So let's not get too crazy about that.

I enjoy your posts, don't get me wrong 👆 Just finding this part of the discussion kinda redundant - unless Clay exhibits this power in the future.

Of course, it's still more likely to happen than Superman actually remembering to use his superspeed in a defensive manner... 😖hifty:

Oh, I agree actually. I'm only clarifying what Domino's powers are. It's rare we get to discuss Domino, so I stuck around. In terms of feats, the "Domino DNA" doesn't seem to have gone anywhere. Maybe it will be picked up again, but I doubt it. Like I said, writing a lucky Hulkverine would be difficult.

As for the six blades over the face defense. I still think the luck power made the bullets fly directly back at Domino. The deflection itself was just reflexes though.

Not to mention how Aaron complicated it further by including Phoenix Force [young] Wolverine and Old Man Phoenix...


Forgot about this.

Yeah, the teen versions of the O5 went back to their own time finally....yet alternate universe Wolverine Jr. gets to stay... mhmm

The O 5 are gone ? Thank God.

In other words, it actually makes logical SENSE for Superman to take a hit or two from most opponents, even ones with bladed weapons, for the vast majority of such things don't hurt him like they would other heroes?

Are you trying to argue Superman lets himself get hit and he'll get one-shot, or arguing he'll stand around and let himself keep getting hit?

And I was bringing up times he's been hit for whatever reason. He actually wasn't doing what you're arguing with Royal Flush Gang. Their 2D nature made them effectively invisible depending on how they stood. Don't remember for sure on the alien who broke her swords, but I think she attacked from behind while he fought someone else. And unless I'm mistaken, he was actually charging Persuader when he got hit, not standing around letting himself. Not exactly examples

Only someone like Pr can confuse a date in a movie theater with walking down the street alone, lol.

Oh, they bounced right back at her? What was the end result? Totally forgot about this 😮

Miles gets to stay, too.

Ultimate characters can't just go back, unless that changed.

I have a Domino scan for you as well Stilt.
