lol, please, Shaw ends up as mince, Gorgon with a sword takes Shaw apart. No sword just makes this a retarded thread. So i'll assume Gorgon gets a sword.
I hope your not inferring that Gorgon with a sword is going to matter when Shaw can just absorb the kinetic energy from the sword attack and render it useless just like he does with bullets.
Gender: Male Location: Planning to take over the WORLD!
shaw can and has been cut. no where near the damage soak to avoid getting sliced up. doubt he'd even hit gorgon before he was decapitated or pierced through the heart.
He can, he has, and Gorgon with a blade would rail this dude. Gorgons blunt force trauma durability is insane enough to tangle with Shaw, get in close and take the dudes eyes out. Not that he would be tagged anyway.
How is Shaw getting cut not like Flash or supes getting tagged by characters w/ near-human reflexes? It happens on panel, but is clearly against his power-set. The amount of kinetic energy in a knife thrust from characters like Wolvrine or Gorgon is insignificant next to a fall from an airplane, a full-strength blast from cyclops, or a full-charge from gambit. Not only that, but EVEN if one accepts panel-evidence that he can be cut (which I think we should not), there is no evidence that this was even a factor in those fights. Wolverine ran away rather than face Shaw, because he was outgunned and he knew it.
A punch is not the same as a stab! His skin is not impenetrable, want an example?
Black Panthers Vibranium mesh suit, a suit designed to absorb kinetic force, the suit can take an IronFist special, but the suit can still be cut. It's a different type of force. Your skin has natural absorption qualities. The mass of a fist spread across your cheek at 3 miles an hour wouldn't bypass your flesh/muscles..but a needle at 3mph would. There are abundant examples of this through out comicdom dude, even from heavy hitters like Hulk. In no way shape or form has it ever been implied that Sebastian shaws skin was impenetrable. Being thrown through a wall takes blunt force trauma durability, totally different from peircing durability.
