Talk:Alex Mercer vs Lucy/@comment-31961081-20181001172241

ok did a bit of resarch and this is what i have.

Alex's regeneration is pretty complicated, because he has no internal organs or a skeleton whatsoever his healing dosen't stem from anywhere, so long as one single cell remains of him or the virus and he will regenerate, true without biomass it takes him several hours to come back from one cell but if he does he can heal near instantly, shown when the crow landed on him and he absorbed it thus making him heal faster. this is proven in the comics, which are canon when in order to preserve himself Alex hid tiny amounts of his biomass all over the world, namely these were chunks of skin or drops of blood, so if he was ever killed the virus would create a new body from one of the droplets.

Lucy's strongest attack blew up that island which was compared to Hiroshima, the nuke that Alex survived was confirmed to be 5x more powerful than hiroshima, this is proven where if you don't kill the supreme hunter the nuke detonates from the ship and all of manhattan is destroyed. even if Alex didn't take the full force of the blast that's still more than enough to survive her island busting attack, even more so with his armour which negates 90% of damage.

his sonar sense can pick up the vectors and with his own tendrils he can power through them, Lucy's vectors are definitly more powerful than his but Alex can continually grow an endless amount of tendrils, Lucy's vectors are fast but not indestructible and she can't grow more and more.also the only thing that has ever sliced through his tendrils was Heller and he had the exact same powers.
