..... not strictly a mutant like the rest of them is he ......
Isn't his special skill that he can heal from almost any injury?
Doesn't he have fast healing as a mutation?
His mutation is fast healing and when he was born, he had bone claws.
It was only his super fast healing that allowed him to survive the surgery to enhance his entire skeleton and claws with Adamantium...
Wolverine has his adamantium skeleton
Cyclops has his glasses
Storm has her cape and her hot sweet ass
Captain Jean Luc Xavier has his wheelchair
they're all just things that enable them to use their mutations to full effect
Isn't his special skill to look like Guy Martin?
..... not strictly a mutant like the rest of them is he ......
Have you seen X-Men Origins: Wolverine ?
she does have a hot sweet ass and she is responsible for the ony 2 good points in swordfish
but you forgot storms wig, its pretty much a character of its own and can probably act better than halle berry too, tho that razzie speech was a bit of a redemption
..... not strictly a mutant like the rest of them is he ......
Apart from the mutant part of him, no he isnt.
He doesn't have to pay heed to warning notices on packets of cigars, either... 😀
Healing factor, animal like senses of smell and bone claws.
Plus, in the comics, he got his adamantium ripped off by magneto, and as a side effect his mutation keep on evolving to a more beast like him (better senses and healing factor). In a trade paperback from art adam he met a tribe with access to higher spiritual plan and magical abilities telling him that if it was not for his body "fighting his meal skeleton" he would access to this spiritual plan too. So yes very much a mutant.
Isn't hard grafting his main super-power?

Don't you mean proper grafting?
Those sideys are never normal & he's about 125 years old........
He seems to have brother problems as well.
I love his face in the film when he pinched Scott's motorbike and found the nitro switch, weeeee!
Apart from all his mutant powers, no.
He's really old, heals dead quick, crazy skelington and mad butch too.
If manliness was a mutant power, he'd be the most powerful mutant ever.
Imagine them claws coming out every time he needs to use them, that can't be nice. He still feels the pain and yet he still does it.
Nails.
Don't just love when people miss huge chunks of the plot.
He's my second cousin. Well, Hugh Jackman is.
Wolverine is the best X men, because he's immortal and hard as nails, he just jumps straight in, without fear of getting hurt or dead. If I was going to be an Xman I'd be wolverine.
Not immortal.
Wolverine, an actual wolverine... lb for lb is the hardest animal on earth.
Thats not strictly true... a honey badger would give a wolverine a good fight
But somehow X-Men Origins: Honey Badger... doesn't have the same ring to it
iirc thats the porn version
🙂
Wolverine is pretty much immortal... you would have not get rid of all his cells to stop him regenerating.

Ok Ok I guess if you chopped his head off he wouldn't grow another but apart from this I reckon he is immortal. Is there back story in the comics to clarify if he is immortal?
I wanted to grow my Movember to look like him (someone once said I looked like him) - turns out he's got all the facial hair EXCEPT a moustache! Weirdo.

Ermmm ^^
no but if you chopped his head off his body would walk over pick it up and reattach it... dumb i Know but thats the beauty of comics.
Magneto stripped the adamantium off his bones at one point, it came out of his skin like little blobs, he soon came back to life, following this he starts getting stronger, healing quicker, heightened senses.. Basically teh adamantium was witholding his true potential... he gets gnarly. he is about as Immortal as you can get.
PS it all depends on who is writing him this week.
yeah knobber I mean would he die of old age if not decapitatated or thrown in a volcanoe or something.
no he won't die of old age as he gets older he gets stronger.
Hulk is also immortal just as a side note.

No no no. You're thinking of Vyvyan

LOL at the subtle Guy Martin gags

Yeah but if you believe the comics (hulk imperfect futur) hulk can kick the living sh1te out of wolverine.
Funny enough the pic up there in the civil war story is so close to the way wolverine dies in Day of a future past. No one ever atually answer the question is wolverine could die. In the ultimate onlsaught sotry he got his arm teared off, and it don't grow bakc (making him the cable of the ultimate universe).
I just hate it when people ask comics question just because they have seen the movies.

Don’t think that’s quite the case – back around the Onslaught saga time there were the Xavier protocols, where Professor X had documented how to kill each member of the X-Men (in case they went evil). Wolverine’s method was to decapitate him and remove his head from being anywhere near its body, as it would reattach if it was left close enough.
But as already mentioned, it varies massively according to who’s writing him. They did go through a phase where they tried to make out that he wasn’t a standard mutant, but instead belonged to another branch of humanity, descended from wolves instead of apes (as were Wildchild and Sabretooth). However, much like “Nightcrawler’s dad was a demon” and “Angel is banging a 16 year old”, subsequent writers retconned it out.

Yeah, but you grow up tough as Honey Badger, it's like being being a boy and you dad [url=

Jean Grey is the stunner IMHO

Of course hulk is harder than Wolverine... hulk is indestructible and the more you piss him off the stronger he gets. Hulk would beat him to a bloody pulp and wander off (as he does,) then wolverine would come back to life.

yeah you would have to basically lock his head in a box or something to stop it reattaching.
Is that Steve Bisley drawing wolverine in that strip up there?
Looks very Slaine during his "Horned God" phase.
Have we established yet which fictional character with made up abilities is the best?

Dredd, obviously. But if we're talking colonial characters, Batman.
Batman hasn't really got any powers he's just a playboy millionaire like stark at least stark has a flashy bit of kit in his chest... Surely the best superhero needs super powers? After years of reading comics I still haven't decided who I like best. Have a soft spot for hulk though.
Scrappy Doo could easily thrash Wolfy within an inch of his life.

For someone who is a hard as nails, Wolverine always seems to get his ass kicked in the films. Just as well he can heal quickly really.
Adamantium? Really?
Like Adam Ant?
AS far as I am aware the "best" super heroe is universe dependant. However, batman managed to kick the whole justice ligue single handed. And he's not just a billionaire with toys...
batman not in the same league as the hulk?
surely iron man could kick batmans ass? and hulk smash iron
ahem, Simon Bisley
there can be only one winner imho
8)
One 'hero' to rule them all?

What is batmans special power dude? Apart from insane bankroll?
Batman has an alphabet soup container attachment on his utility belt!!
beat that!!
What is batmans special power dude? Apart from insane bankroll?
He is the world's greatest detective, only Bane was his equal.
super sleuth?
Wolverine is the most badass comic book hero bar none. Drinks, smokes, has a legendary temper and is hard as nails. Awesome.
Like and have collected all three of the above mentioned characters above, and gotta say brains over pure brawn I mean batman has beat the crap out of superman(dark knight returns) given him a good slap in the jim lee arc!!! But out and out strength hulk all the way I recon..
wolverine seems to follow a moral code like the rest of us. He's a good guy. He feels and acts on pain when he feel wrong social injustice.
This is basically the same conversation that made the middle east such a mess.
I guess Wolverine's fighting prowess is limited by the fact the training wouldn't make him any faster or stronger, even if he wasn't down the pub instead.
Ace thread, didn't realise there were so many comic heads on here 🙂

just not as bad a temper as dr bruce banner 😉
Adamantium? Really?Like Adam Ant?
No, [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Adamant_Lives! ]this chap[/url].
(Serious answer, it probably comes from [url= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adamant ]Adamantine[/url].)

He does too!

As far as I can remember superman owned the Hulk. And batman awned superman. So I am pretty sure batman (the best detective and martial artist in the world) would find a way to kick Hulk's butt. And he'll have two wolverine for breakfast
I reckon the SilverSurfer could have any of em.

We're getting into Chuck Norris territory here......
The future of theology starts here
Well like Guy Martin said last night... "Not made of sugar, are we?"
Anyway I heard ... Batman has a Jens Voigt bed spread
