Could Wolverine kill Superman?

[Morrus]

So the answer to the question is that Wolverine can't kill Superman without giving him arbitrary new abilities or help from outside; and Superman probably can't kill Wolverine but can easily neutralise him permanently.

Of course, both can benefit from scientists giving Wolverine kryptonite claws or Superman adamantium-melting heat vision, but then we're just making stuff up and we can do that ad infinitum.

I didn't think the ships were actually "moving faster than light" but rather were encased in a bubble that warped space/time around it.

And then the bubble moves faster than light. I mean, if you're trying to get from one star to another in reasonable time, eventually *something* has to go faster than light.

I think the technobabble of warp drive is that it isn't so much allowing FTL, but rather creating a shortcut through space-time through which something moving very, very fast (but still slower than light) can travel. You know, the whole "folding space" thing.

When talking about Star Trek it quite specifically says it's moving faster than light. The bubble takes the ship to a 'subspace' where the laws of physics are different and FTL isn't impossible.

The folding space thing was used in Dune.

Not quite.

In Trecknobabble, the ship gets wrapped in a "warp field", and then successive layers of field are layered on top. The outer layers are tightened, and the bubble with the sip inside squirts forward, rather like a wet bar of soap from a fist.

The ship doesn't actually shift into subspace - it stays in normal space, but the warp bubble allows it to break the normal laws hereabouts.

To quote one of my favorite "Britcoms", Father Ted: "Ahhh, right so!"

Wolverine could kill Robo-Cop and the Terminator.

Superman could kill the Enterprise and a Star Destroyer.

Raistlin could beat them all.

Drizzt would get his butt kicked by any of them.

Nah, Drizzl would kill all of them with his kool L337 skimitarz...

It doesn't help people when you omit important information. Who is in command of the ship? Is the battle lop-sided? Did Superman let Wolverine win?

You can get some kind of guess on the victory yet without more data by the original poster. It's close to hearsay.
