Adamantium vs Kryptonite

The Nuul
Whats more rare?

1. When they first got introduced.

2. Current.

Enyalus
The Batcave has an entire vault, floor to ceiling, filled with k-nite. Not to mention Luthor's stash and the US government's, etc.

Adamantium is more rare now, even with all these Weapon X revelations and whatnot.



Not sure about the when they were introduced part.

A little out of topic, but I've always wondered why Iron man never used Adamantium armor for his suits.

And I'll smack anyone who says "cuz he's called Iron Man, not Adamantium Man". stick out tongue

He cant afford it.

Mindset
Only queers use adamantium.

Trackz
kryptonite is hardly rare, before superman and batman confiscated all of it, kryptonite was available on wedding rings, in museums, and basically to anyone who wanted it and could afford it

although many heroes seem to carry something adamantium on them, it is a lot more rare than kryptonite

If that's the case, why isn't Iron Man using it then?

Well, he did create different armors, with Vibranium lined parts, as well as Adamantium lined parts or something along those lines. Most of them were destroyed, during the time they were all turned against him, by that kid, forget his name.

Still don't see why he doesn't have an adamantium armored suit stashed out there somewhere. I mean, he can surely afford it, he had (pre-Dark Reign) the government contacts to acquire it and he's sure as hell able to use it, he's lost enough times cuz his armor got broken/damaged.

Hm. For that matter, why doesn't Dr. Doom use Adamantium? Hm....

I thought the only remaining kryptonite on the planet was in the bat cave now? I seem to remember Supes and Bats going on a quest to eliminate all k-nite from Earth.

Marvel doesn't give characters adamantium who should logically be using it in order to make the rather mundane Wolverine appear more unique.

adamantium is hard to make and very few ppl on the planet know how to make it.. or at least that was the case a decade ago. it is also poisonous to ppl w/o a HF which brings up the point of bullseye and hammerhead being alive. another point is that it takes ppl w/HF to mutate the adamantium into beta adamantium to allow it to bond to bone.

as smart as tony and doom are they really shouldnt know how to make it or figure it out its not in their field of science especially for tony not so much for doom.

second, I dont think anyone is suggesting either IM or Doom graft adamantium to their bones, but rather that they incorporate it into their armor

Yeah, they did...But wasn't the Last Son arc (or whatever the AC arc where Zod and his prisoners escape the phantom zone and Chris Kent/Zod's son helps put a stop to them) after that Supes/Bats arc? 'Cause in it Supes comes to Lex for help, so it seems Lex has those weapons. And then there's the New Krypton arc, with gold k-nite and all.

Plus Supes never got the supplies that the US army had, because he's too much of a boy scout to take it from them.

I'd have to check on that.

Well, apparently, Superman/Batman #49 came out June 18, 2008, and the Last Son story arc ended in May of 08.

doom is smart enough to eventually figure it out if he hasnt already but, for ironman i think would be by far more difficult relying oh his ppl to make and crack the formula to create adamantium.

also unlike doom IM doesnt have access to a nuclear reactor to help make the adamantium.

also i only brought up the bone bonding to see how ppl could explain the inconsistency with both bullseye and hammerhead. cool

With the time and effort needed to make an adamantium suit they could make 10 more armor suits while not as durable as adamantium would be just as sophisticated.

Making an adamantium suit is not worth the effort/time for guys like Doom and Tony does not mean that they cant do it .

Mindset
Doom could have his Doombots do it, it wouldn't be that hard.

what i want to know is who is making all the adamantium in marvel?

and also why is moonknight tossing million dollar adamantium moonblades at his enemies?

Charmander
Because Doom's amour is already harder than adamantium

He didn't damage the suit at all.

Actually he made a big hole in the brestplate and rendered most of Doom`s systems inoperable. Good for Victor that Luke only wanted his 200$ smile

Tony and Doom main are genius in Physics they are well verse in other subject but they genius lays in the realm of physics and technology.

Lord Feron
I just think the writers don't want to make IM and Doom like super powerful. Then they just be like ultron or something.. there isnt a good reason for them to not have it imo.

krowand
Kryptonite has been around since the late 40's it was pink when they started. Adamantine was the ancient word for diamond but I first remember it from a Barry Windsor Smith version of the Avengers

How rare COULD Kryptonite be?? I estimate the DC universe started out with several thousand earth masses of the green glowing stuff. It is the radioactive remains of the Mantle of a giant planet. Course Supes did gather up all the pieces and remake Krypton just to keep beings living inside Krypton's sun alive once and a runaway experiment changed all the Earthly Green k into K-Iron. (H'mmm, K-Iron Man)

Adamantine is a binary metal created from two alloys. It has a major weakness in that it can be altered by thought and a shaping device that Ultron 5 (but not his brother Brainiac 5) had implanted inside himself.

Wolverine Vs. Untron 5 turning into Rubbery-Canuck verses Bot-Boy.

I'm new here so I hope this is an adequate response.
