Wolverine was completely pulverized by [SPOILER] In a fight I still can not believe

I tend to think of Wolverine Like practically unbeatable - which is why I was completely shocked when one of the biggest fighters of the Marvel Universe was taken down by a character I never expected: Electro. As much as I was sure that Logan would have the advantage when they came to blows, it was a surprise when the fight went the opposite way.

Wolverine #21 - Written by Mark Millar, with art by John Romita Jr - featured a storyline in which the character was brainwashed into becoming a Hydra agent. Boarding a SHIELD helicarrier, he immediately grabbed hold and began slaughtering any SHIELD personnel he encountered. I thought Wolverine was going to take out the whole crew until he got to Elektra.

In an exciting moment, Elektra easily took down the wayward hero, By making the fight a matter of tactical intelligence, rather than brute force.

I was surprised when Elektra took down Wolverine - but it makes sense

After a brief struggle, Elektra manages to take Wolverine down with remarkable ease. All she has to do is use her iconic sword to pierce specific points in Wolverine's body. This destroyed his nervous system and completely shut him down. For their confrontation, the brain-washing Wolverine has placed bombs on the helicarrier, which knocks Eletrka off balance at a critical moment; If it wasn't for that, however, I firmly believe that Elektra would have taken Logan into custody - or perhaps sent him away entirely.

Wolverine has faced many of the best in the Marvel Universe. I've read stories where he fought Captain America, Spider-Man, Hulk and Daredevil, to name just a few - and that's not even mentioning his legendary bouts with Sabretooth. Even if he doesn't walk away from a battle the clear cut victor, he's not usually left worse for wear in the way he was after his fight against Elektra. When Daredevil went up against Wolverine, he was completely outclassed; Although they were equal in skill, Elektra knew the secret to beating Wolverine that Daredevil did not.

The secret to defeating Wolverine is to hit where he is vulnerable early and immobilize him

Elecktra understood this strategy implicitly

The secret to defeating Wolverine is not to fight him directly. With his healing factor, it is almost impossible to do any real damage to him. In an even fight, the other person must be smarter, not stronger. Daredevil fought Wolverine for over an hour hour And he didn't go at all. He only won the fight after he managed to knock Wolverine into a large body of water, one of the few weaknesses that Wolverine has. Likewise, Elektra knew not to engage Wolverine in direct combat. instead, She made him and quickly shut him down, taking away his ability.

As Elektra proved, if Wolverine can't use his body, he's not a problem, which makes this a stand-out Wolverine fight for me. However, if someone has the strength of the Hulk, beating Wolverine in a straight fight is simply not going to happen. Spider-Man and Daredevil are both believe Fighters, and they have both lost in the past to "The best there is"However Electro Managed to do what most people can't, hit WolverineAnd all she had to do was approach the situation from a tactical perspective.
