Poll: Can Wolverine Be Killed?

[The_root_of_all_evil]

Anyone can be killed. Except Doctor Manhattan, but he's pretty much a god so that doesn't count. But yes, Wolverine can be killed. Not even his fast healing ability will save him from a sniper shot to the head...

His adamantium skull might though.

AFAICR, he's been killed in Nightmares of Future Past (Eradicated by a Sentinel), Fred Hembeck Destroys The Marvel Universe (By a Ninja Sentinel) and a few other times.

 

[LewsTherin]

Purge it with fire and steel.

 

[Kaunte]

Ultimate Wolverine's head was cut off, and placed in a vaccuum. So he CAN survive without oxygen. He has also survived
-a bullet to the head
-ripped in half
-a nuke
-getting the adamantium ripped from his bones
-beheading
-and much much more...

Frank Castle has killed Wolverine, with... electricity? Was it?
He could be killed with the muramasa blade

 

[quiet_samurai]

A nuke, or molten metal, or that giant hydrolic press in Terminator.

 

[Khazoth]

Don't know if its still canon but Professor Xavier had a file on each of the X-Men detailing how to kill them in an emergency situation.

That's where his extra-strong-bullet-stopping adamantium sceleton comes in i presume

NO, NO, NO with a capital N (and O). His bones are unbreakable, his organs replaceable-- and if I'm not mistaken, once he and Sabertooth were locked in combat so long that he was reduced to a charred, stained, adamantium skeleton-- and he was STILL beating the crap out of that guy.

NO.

He's still only human. A mutated human who can heal quickly and has an adamantium skeleton, true, but still human. Hence if he's reduced to nothing but skeleton then he will die. Nothing you say can change that. As for the skeleton itself, just because it's been bonded with adamantium doesn't mean it's unbreakable. Here's a quote for you:

While often referred to as indestructible or unbreakable, it is possible for it to be destroyed through very specific circumstances. True adamantium can be destroyed through very precise molecular rearrangement, such as being altered by Thanos while wearing the Infinity Gauntlet.[3] True adamantium's molecular structure can also be altered by Antarctic vibranium, also known as anti-metal, as it has the capability to liquify all known metallic substances, including adamantium.

See? I've managed to shoot down both arguments there. Plus, did any of you know that in a human head there's a bit at the back of the head where there's no skull protection? Feel the back of your head and you'll notice it. I know because I used that same fact in a screenplay I wrote a while ago. Anyway, a sword or knife through the brain using that entry point, and all the adamantium in the world won't save Wolverine from a painful death.

So there. I win.

But he could regenerate his brain though. He would have be destroyed like how Doctor Manhattan killed Rorschach.

You moron, brain cells don't replicate themselves! The whole point about Wolverines' healing factor is that it increases the cell replication speed, and as I said before brain cells do not replicate themselves, that is common knowledge.

Wolverine is a mutant and so his genetic material is different from that of a regular human. His healing factor allows him to heal all his wounds.

In Hellsing Alucard and Alexander Aanderson both have their brains destroyed a thousand times over so what says Wolverine cannot regenerate his brain? Remember, his healing factor allows himself to regenerate any wound.

actually he would survive it due to his indestructible skeleton

Magneto could kill him by ripping his metal skeleton out of his body.

Already done, and that just made him angry

It has also been stated that the adimantium skeleton actually slows down his regeneration, so ripping it out of him will accelerate it hugely

crush the adamantium in his head to a ball? throwing him into the sun? ripping his skeleton out and the ripping of all his limbs and ending it by incinerating his severed head in a bucket of lava? putting him inside a supernova? throwing him into space? turning back time and hurtling him into the big bang? I could do this all day and eventually he would die from one of my ideas.

 

[Britisheagle]

huh theres a point, can he die of starvation?? Because after all he is only human, just a super badass mutant one.

That is because they are magic for god's sakes. You can't compare a genetic mutation to incantations fool.

Alex Andersons healing ability is nanomachines, not magic.

Explain to me why Wolverine's mutant ability could not repair his brain yet Deadpool got a knife through his skull and brains yet was able to regenerate his skull and brains?

Alright, but nanomachines are still quite a ways away from natural healing ability, and as for Deadpool show me the angle of entry and I'll answer your question.

 

[Hamster at Dawn]

The Ultimate version of Wolverine was torn in half by The Hulk, THEN had his head cut off AND was shot in the head by Nick Fury...

That doesn't seem physically possible. I guess he really is Ultimate. What if they took out his brain and then split it into a million pieces? Surely that would kill him.

 

[WrongSprite]

Guys.

Fire him into the sun.

 

[pamplemousse]

Cant crush adamantium. he can survive w/o oxygen. And yeah, I'm fairly certain the other ideas would work.

Wolverine can heal his brains, just not the memories that may be damaged.

 

[JaffaKira]

Marvel did a glimpse into the future for a while and the only living x-man was gambit - so i guess yeah that does mean he can die.

Also I seem to remember magneto ripping the adamantium from his body at one point, so if he did that again and then set him on fire or sommet it is possible ^^

no even if magneto removed the adamantium from his body he wouldn't die, it is his cells that give him the ability to heal not the adamtium, plus it is stated that wolverine can die from old age, the older he gets the longer it takes for him to regenerate so eventually he just will not heal anymore.

I meant that if the Adamantium was removed there is a chance he could be obliterated by a nuke or something. But yeah thanks for proving the age thingy ^^
