Mr Hyde (Van Helsing)
Mr Hyde (LXG film)
I don't know VH is probably just as strong and agile for how big he is. Also LXG seems kind of musclebound.
@zetsumoto: But he was never shot or stabbed. And he changed back to Jeckel during the fall.
@zetsumoto: But he was never shot or stabbed. And he changed back to Jeckel during the fall.
He has a bullet hole straight through his arm in the thread picture.
@zetsumoto: I know that but blunt force vs stabbing and slashing aren't the same thing.
@zetsumoto: LXG can't even raise his arms above his head, VH would just run circles around him.
@hyiena: In the video I posed, Nemo slashes the crap out of Dante but only makes shallow cuts. Bullets are blunt, and while blunt and slashing are not one and the same there is a certain level of base durability. The reason why you can stab through a bullet proof vest but not shoot through it isn't because the defense is different, it's because the knife goes between the threads. Tighten those threads and you get a slash and stab proof vest, but it no longer spreads the shock well enough to stop a bullet or other blunt force trauma. The thing is, when you are getting plowed through concrete, it's not just skin defense, it's your entire body that's super durable.
His skin may not stop a sword, but his bones most certainly can.
@hyiena: @zetsumoto: Thanks for the opinions guys, glad to see a good debate going on. Few things to remember; firstly, Dante was superior to LXG Hyde, so they're feats aren't comparable; secondly, bullets didn't really phase VH Hyde; and thirdly, just to reiterate, neither of them will be turning back into human for during this fight. Thanks again!
@silverrings: But Dante was just a supersized version of Hyde. VH Hyde was able to ignore the damage from the bullets, but it was still doing damage, that's why he had a huge hole in his arm. It shows that while he has a high tolerance for pain and ability to shut off bleeding, his body is far from indestructible.
@mazeraiii: Thank you. What makes you think that?
@zetsumoto:Exactly, he was a much bigger, stronger, more durable version of Hyde. His feats were above Hyde's, he's a different, physically superior character, so his feats can't be used here. You're completely right about VH Hyde's durability, he can totally ignore most pains and apparently doesn't bleed much, but can still be damaged, as can LXG Hyde. The real question is, who can do more damage to the other and why?
@silverrings: "was a much bigger, stronger, more durable version of Hyde."--- Bigger, but there was nothing to show that he was stronger or more durable than Hyde "pound for pound". The fact is, Nemo showed some superhuman feats in that fight, but even with his speed and dexterity he made little more than shallow cuts. It wasn't that the sword was too small to deal damage due to Dante's size, it just wasn't penetrating.
@zetsumoto: Dante smashed a lot of stone with ease and shrugged off Hyde's punches, Nemo's slashes and an explosion, and is only seemingly killed when tons and tons of stone falls on top of him. He definitely seems to be physically somewhat above Hyde. Regardless, Dante and Hyde are two separate characters, so one's feats cannot be used when debating for another.

He smashed those things because he was bigger. Strength from size is not the same as strength pound for pound. Hyde was the one getting smashed into those things. They are two separate characters, but their powers come from the same source. Whether or not their feats are linked depends on the nature of the feat.
LXG Hyde had a healing factor IIRC. And we have far greater showings of his skill and ability.
@zetsumoto: I know that but blunt force vs stabbing and slashing aren't the same thing.
It doesn't matter, at all. Neither of these guys have guns or swords, so who cares? At best it's irrelevant.
Thanks for reading,

All good points guys.
@justicethorpsylocke How come?

He had serious durability feats which VH Hyde did not
I've argued VH Hyde's superior agility makes this a fair fight but no one agreed. LOEG Hyde is a tank but he's slow.
