20 comic book characters who would challenge John Wick
By Mark Lynch
1. Wolverine
Whenever you bring up Wolverine in the comics, you have to use his catchphrase. He’s the best there is at what he does and what he does isn’t very nice. Wolverine is a fighter. He’s been battling and killing people since the late 1800s and hasn’t stopped. When people hear “Snikt” even the best fighters get chills. It isn’t only the claws. As time has gone on, he’s gotten better too.
The common misconception about Wolverine is that all he does is swing his razor sharp claws and hope for the best. If this was the case, he would have lost 95% of his fights. He also never would have been an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., an Avenger, and, most importantly, an X-Man.
Wolverine wins 9 out of 10 fights
This could be the one fight John Wick would never be prepared for. Logan has mastered a plethora of fighting styles on Earth and some extraterrestrial as well. Wick just isn’t prepared for that. Plus, there’s nothing Wick could throw at him that Logan hasn’t faced before.
That’s not to say Wick can’t win. He’d take one fight. Even The Punisher has beaten Logan, so Wick could certainly find a way to win a battle. Wolverine loves to run right into bullets and Wick has plenty. The huge problem, however, is Logan’s healing factor will keep him going. Wolverine will go to the ends of the Earth to kill Wick.
At some point, even John Wick slows down. Wolverine never will.
