Question
Would Wolverine or the Hulk beg Q for help if they were facing imminent death from a superior enemy? Somehow Hulk doesn't seem like the begging type.

How fast does Wolverine heal? I'm assuming he doesn't heal faster than the T-1000. The T-1000 healed shotgun 'wounds' nearly in a matter of seconds, something I don't think Wolverine could accomplish.

How do you think the Hulk and Armus would interact? All of Armus' taunting and such would just make the Hulk more and more angry.

How would Hulk and Apollo interact?

Answer
Hi John -

I doubt it.  The only instance I could conceive of Wolverine begging would be to save someone else (Like Jean Grey or Silver Fox), but doubt he'd resort to begging to save himself.

That is a good question and his healing abilities have been portrayed inconsistently throughout his comic book life.  In Uncanny X-Men #171 or 172 (can't remember the exact issue but it was when the team went to Japan) he is shown healing from gunshot wounds in a matter of hours.

However, in the first Wolverine miniseries, issue #4 it took him months to fully heal from the duel he had with Lord Shingen of the Yoshida (Yashida) Clan.  Shingen gave Wolvie a healthy beating, but did so with a sword and I find it hard to believe he can heal from gunshot wounds in hours, but it takes longer to heal from cuts from a sword.

In the X-Men movies he is shown healing from gunshot and trauma wounds within seconds (as he did in the second movie when shot in the head).

Yes, Armus taunting would make the Hulk more and more angry, therefore making him stronger.  I think the Hulk would attempt to beat Armus into submission, but with little luck.

I think Apollo would probably actually be really nice to the Hulk so as to encourage the monster to see him as a 'benevolent god.'  I doubt Hulk would fully trust Apollo since he looks too much like a human and "Hulk no like humans."

Thanks!
