One of Marvel’s most famous and beloved characters Wolverine is typically one you would connect with the X-Men, but something most diehard fans are well aware of but casual outsiders may not know about him is that he actually debuted in the comics as an enemy to The Incredible Hulk all the way back in 1974.
It didn’t take long after this initial appearance for him to become part of the X-Men roster, in fact he joined up with the mutant super hero team the very next year in 1975. So while it makes a lot of sense that most people identify him as a hero with the X-Men, it’s always been a very iconic battle in the Marvel Universe to have him pitted against The Hulk and that’s exactly what today’s video shows an adaptation of.
Because of the Hulk’s immense strength and Wolverine’s resilience coupled with his regenerative healing factor, it becomes something of a “unstoppable force versus immovable object” situation, a feeling that is expertly captured in this piece of animation.
Stop-motion animation may not be the first thing to come to mind when you’re thinking of fighting games, but after seeing this choreography in action it really brings the mind back to the old Marvel fighting games that Capcom graced us with throughout the ’90s and the early ’00s, especially since it’s specifically between Wolverine and The Hulk.
While it’s obviously a fair bit different from any kind of animation or live-action fight sequence due to it being done entirely with action figures, the thought and effort put into the choreography, action sequences and even the sheer length of this video make it a must-see not only if you enjoy cool fight scenes but more importantly creative solutions to the limitations of such a format.
Over at a Tiktok channel called Brickaway, the ambitious user decided to use an array of action figures to create an epic battle set piece through simply posing them, adding extra objects and effects (as well as a bunch of extra Deadpools toward the end) and taking pictures of it.
It’s hard to even begin counting how many images must’ve been used to bring this whole video to life, which clocks in at more than three and a half minutes, but the end result is beyond impressive.
Showcasing an epic clash between the two famous Marvel superheroes and their eventual battle against an army of Deadpools, it’s done in a way that honestly surpasses what we see in most comic book movies, despite their budgets regularly exceeding figures of 200 million dollars.
If the end sequence didn’t already make it obvious enough that this project had been inspired by last year’s Deadpool & Wolverine film, the creator makes it very clear by stating in the video description “Giving you what Deadpool 3 unfortunately didn’t… Hope you enjoy as always”.
As the channel seems focused specifically on content of this nature, we’re definitely looking forward to what Brickaway might deliver in the future after seeing this masterpiece.
Take a look at the epic action sequence below and let us know what you think of this Marvel Comics battle brought to life.
