I certainly don't think that any Joe could handle Wolverine. But in Larry Hama's Storm Shadow series (it only lasted 7 issues), he has ninjas doing crazy things. Snake-Eyes versus Wolverine might be a good fight. I understand the position you're taking, but I think there is mitigating evidence considering Hama wrote both characters.
I suppose that my main point is that not every Marvel Super Hero is beyond the scope of the Joe team. Just as some Marvel characters are not evenly matched. The Joes are not super humans, but neither is every Marvel hero. Captain America would have made a great Joe... but is he that much better than Flint, or Claymore? I kind of doubt it. He might be strong and fast, but there are other qualities that might even things out.
That's all. I'm not saying the Joes are equal to Thor or Galactus or something.
I definately hear where your coming from. Wolverine just happens to be my all time favorite comic character and I've been going through my head the last few years of who could take him in a fight from all the different comic companies characters. Cap(second fav of all time) would make an awesome Joe. While he is not superhuman per se the super soldier serum did make him physically as perfect as a "normal human" can be. Add on all the years of fighting super humans and all his training and experience and he would probably help dismantle Cobra in a very short time. I also would say Nick Fury would make a great Joe.
Now onto Tanksmashers snipers. Is there a reason Widescope isn't mentioned in the list? Is it he came out between collecting periods for you guys? Or because he is a SWAT sniper? I personally can't wait to get 2 Shockwave comic packs so I can have Shockwave and do a custom Widescope and put him with Lamont.
