: About Me

Hello! I am a newbie to this game. I've been writing and composing in my head since I was a young boy. For twenty years I've longed to have the time to sit down and write the crazy ideas that pop into my head on a regular basis, but the demands of work and raising a family have made that a slow process, at best. But, no more! Like many others, it is my dream to be a published writer, and, perhaps, even to make a living at same.

Arts & Humanities > Comic Books & Graphic Novels Who would win in a fight: Wolverine or Sabertooth?

1 of 8

I love this debate for the simple reason that these are two of my favorite characters, and their battles are well documented. I'd never heard of Wolverine till he was introduced to me in a Daredevil story. His ferociousness and intensity had me searching out his comic books and I was hooked. First, lets take a good look at the combatants; Wolverine is the, not so obvious, good guy. Approximately five and a half feet tall, and weighing a deceaving 275 pds. due to his adamantium skeleton, he's armed with an almost unmatched ferocity and three eighteen inch claws that spring from the top of h...
