He was also very strong because his bones weighed so much from the adamantium. Lugging around hundreds of pounds of metal on your body and having accelerated muscle regen made him a beast
His also 5’3 ft in the comic and cartoon. This was to represent his similarities to a Wolverine, small but ferocious. You’ll notice this in the cartoons and comics where people always call him little man, where he responds “how about I cut you down”
According to the original marvel superheroes series about the heroes and villains and their powers, Wolverine was 5 foot even.Can't even remember what the name of the series was or when it came out. late 1970's, I think
@@MatataMcCleskeyI saw a video where someone was saying Daniel Radcliffe of all people would make a good Wolverine. I had my doubts but then they showed a clip of some other movie he’s done where he’s actually fairly cut and seemed to be “raging out” in the clip. With a little more gym time, I think he might actually do a good job. He may need to scruff up the voice a lil bit too lol
Hugh Jackman was always a good choice for Wolverine in my mind and just got more Wolverine as time went on. I dunno about anyone else, but I was unprepared and kinda shocked at how young and unbuff Jackman actually was in that shot from his earliest outings. He was almost downright flabby in that shot. Turns out the simple secret to a healthy, buff bod is playing the role of the angriest, yet most relatable superhero in the Marvelverse for a mere 18 years…sign me up bub.
>*"a healthy, buff bod"* ... is not what he had. He got the ripped look the same way wrestlers and MMA fighters fake their weight, by severe dehydration. For the earlier movies it was at least 24hrs without drinking water, by the time he hit Logan he was up to 3 days. That's borderline lethal territory. Henry Cavill does the same thing for The Witcher which, again, is very unhealthy. Putting on the mass for those muscles is a bit more of a grey area, but short version it's a lot more protein than the average person is consuming and has been linked to heart disease. It's kind of funny. A healthy and fit person looks nothing like what you see on TV or in cinema.
@@ruqayyah2212 yep, evil tempered thing, was on my morning walk when a gaggle of them came waddling across the road behind me, well I got to my turn around point, was walking up the road to go home and apparently that was too close to them because they came after me.
That he did, my friend. Just the same way as Robert Downey Jr. IS Ironman, Hugh Jackman IS The Wolverine. No one else will be able to portray the beast the way Jackman did for quite a long time to come. We saw that raging beast for the last time in the climax scenes of "Logan", and his final line was no less a classic than Tony Starks' in Endgame .. Logan: So that's what it feels like ..
That was a lot of the problem, it was not the "Xmen". It was the Wolverine series. I hated the way Fox handled the movies. I just can't understand the reasoning behind buying the rights to an established series like that, then just ignoring the vast majority of the source material. Like First Class or whatever ..... that was NOT the original team of Xmen. The destroyed the comic story and cut out a huge story arc that would have been great to see ... The Morlocks. Of course they would have had to use Angel which they did not seem to like to do. Seeing Angel lose his wings in the comics gave a much deeper understanding of why he accepted the offer from Apocalypse.
I always thought of Spider-Man and Hulk as most popular until RDJ started playing iron man. I feel like spidey and iron man are the most popular now. Idk I guess it depends who sells the most toys
On his power letting him forget, it was better described on "how to kill Deadpool." His healing factor can repair his brain, but not necessarily regenerate the nerve patterns which encode memories. So, every serious head injury that would liquify the brain, he heals but would have it affect his memory.
Some things you missed: He's Peter Parker's uncle on his father's side, and was actually there when Pete was born, congratulating his father. Deadpool's healing factor _is_ Wolverine's as well. He had a tryst with Squirrelgirl when she was around 18. He animalistic side prevents him from committing suicide and has forced him to survive several times when he wanted to die. He's met, and killed, several alternative versions of himself. Not just clones or robots, actual hims from other earths. He and Dr. Doom have a peculiar relationship of mutual respect and have played chess together more than they've fought.
@@adnan_honest_jihadist5775 not by blood, but yes. Logan talks about him and Peter's father being like brothers and Peter says Wolverine is "basically my uncle!"
He's also one the few beings who took straight right from the Hulk and lived.Legend has it that the Hulk's knuckle print is indented on Wolvie's chest bone under the skin
The craziest thing about wolverine to me is that he's actually the lowest class of mutant, but is still strong enough to stand up to a ton of much stronger mutants.
@@TemplarX2 What he said is a fact in the Marvel comics not just an opinion. He has an insane healing factor & super senses that’s it when it comes to his “mutant” abilities.. everything else was due to an experiment
1:57 If you ever looked closely at the way Xavier and Magneto play chess they play the same way they lead. Magneto sacrifices his pawns while Xavier protects his pawns.
But still he's very tall for the role but fits it either way probably the biggest change to a comic book character that pple rlly don't mind when u look at it lol
In Logan the fact that he was losing his healing abilities was not connected with being poiaoned by his skeleton. The main plot why mutant were gone was causing him to lose his powers, as he also ate and drank a lot of corn syroup which was geneticly modified to suppress Gene X
Wolverine has always been one of my favorite Marvel characters since I was little he always was the outcast a person who struggled with personal issues and was very loyal
The MCU needs to highlight Wolverine's martial arts background. That is pretty much the only thing I felt was missing from the great Hugh Jackman's performance.
@@penname8380 so martial artists cant be street fighters also or combat tacticians? Wolverine is not just a martial artist, bub. He is a trained killer, spy and soldier. So the things you said about karate chopping or tiger dancing are nothing but cringe, dude. 😂
I recall Wolverine going through pain every time he used his claws, it even would vary when and how fast he would heal. One point in an Alpha Flight issue, he was going through the hardest time using his claws because he wasn't healing as well at that time.
for sure. With some of these characters that have been around for decades and decades, there's SO MUCH comic book lore. Sometimes to keep things fresh, they vary or re-invent their powers all together.
One of my favorite comic book arcs is Wolverine #100 where Genesis tried to put adamantium back into Wolverine (Magneto ripped it out) to make him a horseman of Apocalypse. Because of the intense pain, he rejected the adamantium and entered an unstoppable rage, killing Genesis and the Dark Riders showing just how powerful he can become when he doesn't control his rage.
@@jeffmayo6002 Gunpowder is gunpowder, no matter what the slug is made of. The adamantium didn't make the gunpowder more powerful. Wolverine got shot in the forehead many times in the X-Men movies, with no brain scrambling. You don't owe the Origin writers the mental gymnastics it takes to make them appear unstupid.
3:20 he said Wolverine forgot his whole name. The official story should have been that: Logan forgot it, because his original brain was melted in getting Adamantium injection. That’d answer the question if he could heal from total brain loss. The Adamantium would have been molten for a while, inhibiting the brains cortex. After a long while, his healing power wouldn’t retain the thoughts of those brain cells. Prof X would only get so far He’d need Dr Stranges ability to look into a soul. That would clear everything up completely. Till then, he’s just a lost soul, no matter what he does.
When I first got into wolverine, with the graphic novel series back in the late 80's, I always thought that if there was a movie ever made about wolverine, Clint Eastwood would've been the perfect choice , because if you look at how his character is, and how he's drawn in the comics there is definitively a resemblance to the young eastwood. But at that time and for years before, wolverine was popular but not like how it eventually took off years later. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that the creators of wolverine modeled him off clint eastwood.
That's the movie version. Comic origins had the bone-claws as a hereditary nature of the Howlett family; probably related to how they got the name Howlett in the first place... James' healing factor might be unique to him though, seeing how his father was killed and his grandfather died of old age, with no indication of having lived extremely long.
its abit of a plothole because his healing factor keeps his cells young meaning aslong as it works he is kind of inmortal to aging but in the canon he technicly grows old very slowly.
"He was born in the 80s....that is the 1880s!" and then immediately shows a clip of him fighting in the American Civil War as an adult which took place the 1860s. Real good stuff guys.
I've loved every movie with wolverine. I would like to see a heck of a lot more, and if they find another replacement, he better be able to play the hell out of it like Hugh did lol. Keep me in the loop of potentials though
He was dead. It was only till kitty removed him and removed the adamantium from his brain,that he started to heal. They explain it in finding Wolverine and Wolverine lives
My favorite part of wolverine is even if you get past Professor X's defenses you still have to worry about every single wolverine that was locked away in wolverines mind. Like when demons took over his body and were fighting his mind for control. They weren't expecting a version of him who thought he was Jean. Aka the Phoenix
In the comics, he loses his healing factor due to a virus from another universe and starts developing blood poisoning from popping his claws and the wound getting infected...what were the movies supposed to do with that?
anytime a character gets too powerful they put a stopgap like for spider-man it is his strong convictions he battled wolverine once and wolverine told him that the only way to stop him was to use all his strength and break his neck but we both know that you don't have it in you to kill
Most humans shrug off covid-19 as though it were nothing. One doesn't need to have the healing abilities of wolverine for covid-19; a strong immune system of a fit human being will do.
So if just a drop of blood can remake him entirely, I have one big question, wouldn't that make him reborn as he was before the weapon x modifications? I mean the Adamantium was added to his bones during the weaponizing process, it is not a part of him naturally, so how could he regrow the metal not to mention it's not organic, it would just be his bones. So technically he would be himself before the weapon x program gave him the remarkable metal. Seems like a big thing to overlook.
In the one comic that he was regenerated from a drop of blood the drop was on top of the Adamantium skeleton. I would say if the blood was not near the skeleton, then yeah pre skeleton augments unless his healing factor can regenerate the adamantium which I don't think it can since that is what is actually killing him.
@@DANTHETUBEMAN in the comic he was only able to regenerate from a drop of blood from energy provided by either the shi'ar crystal or else Roma who had for some reason taken an interest in the x-men in general. without external power sources he could not do it.
If a single drop of Logan's blood can grow a new Wolverine, then if Wolverine lost a bunch of blood, would a horde of Wolverines grow from it? Seems like a plot hole to me.
There is something in the Marvel comic-verse that negates multiple versions. It goes for a lot of the Wolverine-level healers. Deadpool is one of the few that skewed this, but it took a heck of a long time and a lot of the random left behind parts.
my headcanon for this is that since souls are also a thing in comics, may be we can say that the lost blood wouldn't have a soul since the full body wolverine is still kicking around and wouldn't try to grow back
There was a story line where he regenerated from a single cell in less than a minute. It's the one where they're hunting for a rogue mutant who wipes out a whole city after taking a power enhancing drug. This was probably peak regeneration, I believe they toned it down not long after.
Wolverine is one bad dude, kinda miss seeing him in movies already, luckily I can see him in comics still, glad you made this video cause not many people really know how many abilities he really does have, I think the movies tend to make him more human-like, in actuality he’s a lot tougher and can’t be taken down so easily
What I didn't really like about the movies is they dumbed him down. One of the big appeals to Wolverine, at least for me, was the fact of how intelligent and formidable he really is. He's been around a long time and he knows quite a lot from covert operations, to languages, hacking, strategies, fighting styles and so much more. He's a pilot for god's sake and they make him out to be a nauseous person on flights in the jet. Love Hugh playing him, but really, really wish the writers would've gone way more above and beyond to capture what makes the character so great.
I always loved reading the Wolverine Saga, it was a comic book with a hard bound spine unlike most comic books with their 2 or 3 staples. Two of my favorite conflicts were Wolverine vs Cyber & Wolverine vs Sabertooth, but I haven’t bought comic books since the 90’s
I just want to point out 2 things: 1: with the weightlifting/strength building call-out, you could have mentioned him lugging around ~130lbs of adamantium; dude is never not working out! 2: Number 8's point. Wolvie has both been reduced to just a head, and had everything but his bones (and brain I think) burnt away, and recovered from both.
To point #4 and talking about how his healing factor eliminates the "curses" of being a Vampire or Werewolf because it replaces his damaged cell's the same thing would happen with his body being "poisoned" by the adamantium. It would have to poison him at a rate so high that the healing factor couldn't repair/replace his damaged cells quick enough to negate the poisoning, in which case he'd never have survived for as long has he did after the initial procedure was done.
I remember a very subtle detail from the X-Men cartoon when the team travels to the Savage Land to stop Mr. Sinister. When the heroes all lose their powers, Wolverine tells the villains, "There's nothing mutant about these!" He pops his claws, and it visibly hurts him to do so.
as a 40yr fan i kinda preferred it when we still had no idea about the exact details of his origin.. i also remember when his claws were drawn to spring out his wrists & not his hands & of course they were believed to be solid metal..also when it comes to the movies they haven't used his heightened senses ability enuff. & Jackman looks the part (except way too tall) but has never quite nailed my favorite character.
Totally agree with everything you said also 40 and remember those days too and Hugh Jackman did say that he had no idea who or how to play wolverine so there's that
Yeah, I am also a decades long fan of Wolverine, mutants, etc. and found it quite lame how Fox changed the claws to come out between his fingers. I am hoping when Marvel brings out Wolverine that they put Logan's claws back to how they have always been in the comic books, along with the original origins of all of their mutants being used too. Not the overly used rebooted versions of their characters.
I believe the claws are STORED in his forearms - but extend out through his hands. In fact, if I remember right, in age of apocalypse he got his hand blown off but still had the claws in his forearm
Yup originally, the design was to have the claws housed in the gloves he wore. But got messed up or improved along with his mask design as artists changed.
It wasn't actually the adamantium that was killing Logan. It was a chemical that was put in the corn. Being as Logan drank a lot, the chemical was inhibiting his healing ability. Also, wolverine was originally one of the founding members of the Canadian superhero group called Alpha flight. The comics back in the 1970's had several encounters between the X-Men and Alpha Flight because Alpha Flight wanted him back.
@@haljordan9607 It's mentioned in the movie Logan how they out something in the corn syrup (used in making whiskey, among other things) that robs mutants of their powers.
He feels pain, he's said multiple times it hurts when the claws come out. N comparison to being blown up etc, it's not as bad on his scale as it would b on ours
I like to think with that line, "does it hurt? When they come out?" He says "Everytime." I feel like he means that he does the hurting when they come out.
@@KootenaiKing no he's clearly talking about the pain he feels everytime he pops his claws. It would only last for a second and automatically heal as soon as they come out but the pain is still there everytime
1832 is when he was born He was 197 in logan logan was set in 2029 So 2029-197=1832 His powers started at a young age unsure what age In many comics on other universes he lives longer And necessarily if he never got the adimantim in his body and didn't have to fight so many people Logan could live to be over 600
i have a comic book that says he was born in 1867 the war you see him in was the first world war i think which started in 1914 but he has been in other conflicts aswel. even wiki says somewhere arround 1880 but my book says 1867,youre 1830 is from the movies not from the comics.
I want a “what if” with wolverine absorbing The Hulks gamma radiation ☢️....Thus becoming the “Incredible Wolverine”, Wolverines disposition, Hulks anger issues... Gimmie lmao 😂
Look Up Weapon H. Pretty nuts. It's a different person than Logan or Banner, but it's a person with all of Hulks abilities with Wolverines adamantium skeleton and abilities and Nanites in his body.
OMG so since he doesn't get tired imagine him in a 10 kilometre run. He will just sprint the whole time while others jog and take their time. OMG OMG OMG!!!
I thought that in Logan they was putting stuff in the foods and drinks that cancels out the mutant gene being the reason why mutants no longer exist and Wolverine and Prof. X were deteriorating being the last of the original mutants. Also the mutant children where protected due to experimental needs which is why Laura (X23) was instantly hooked on the food and drink from the gas station when she first tried it.
I feel as if he is one of the most tragic hero’s imagine being born sickly and poor in a time a judgement and pain getting powers at 12 killing his father then fighting world war 2 then getting and dealing with his animalistic and beastly urges then the weapon x programs
The science behind old man Logan. Having his bones completely covered in bone, and with bones being the only source of fresh new red and white blood cells. For Logan, he never received any new blood cells and with the metal graphs to his entire skeleton, any body including Wolverine's considers that a trauma or an injury. Therefore, his healing factor is constantly going, that doesn't include additional injuries. With both of these huge handicaps, his healing factor continues to try to keep him at "factory specs" and the lack of one critical biological function begins to wear on his physique, causing his healing factor to work harder and harder every time he gets injured. With 200 years of walking the earth, he didn't age at ALL since becoming a fully grown and mature. Then gets the adamantium in the late 70s-early 80s. Only about 50-70 years after that does Logan even begin showing signs of significant age. Ultimately, his death can be directly attributed to the adamantium, since his death was a result of far too much bodily injury (in Old Man Logan anyways).
His biology doesn't make sense at all. He would have to eat an insane amount of food nonstop to regenerate any damage he receives. Also, where do his claws retract? They are clearly longer than his palms.
They forgot to mention his other metabolic problem: Wolverine eats a LOT. (Which begs the question of why there aren't Wolverine droppings every 2 blocks in New York.)
I have always wondered how Wolverine is able to sleep since he regens instantly and constantly, how does he manage to force himself asleep. A real life Wolverine would probably go insane from his mind never being able to rest. Also if Wolverine actually tried lifting weights to bodybuild or increase strength he would be the largest and strongest human ever considering he heals instantly.
He doesn't forget everytime he heals that'd suk, if his brain is injured, specially in the memory area, the newly grown brain matter doesn't retain memory, it's new brain matter with no memory, get it?
@@brianrathbun8101 Depends. I think the current iteration isn't actually even sure if he is the original Wade Wilson after so many regeneration and is scared that he'll eventually lose the memory of his family.
Yeah... I remember that (kinda...)... He was like their gardener or a ranch hand or something, & the guy's other son, I think they called him "dog"...🤔
Still think that's bs. I know it's what the movie told us, but... That lady's husband was the spitting image of Hugh Jackman, and the gardener was the spitting image of sabertooth.
@@larrywilliams6116 I think I was mistaken. I think I got confused with when he regenerated from that crystal, which this video actually touches up on. You're good
Whilst Professor X did put certain Psychic protections in place, in Wolverines mind, it’s also known that his healing factor also makes it EXTREMELY difficult for even Omega level telepaths to read his mind, and that’s because his healing factor is constantly regenerating the cells in his brain. For example, in X Men #25, after Magneto ripped the Adamantium from his skeleton, it took the combined effort of Professor X and Jean Grey to keep his mind from registering the damage done to his body. So that shows the level of natural psychic protection in place, when it took 2 of the most powerful Omega level telepaths on Earth, and maybe the Universe, just to keep him alive…..
Originally, before they went a different way with the origin stories and it was unknown who/what Wolverine really was, the writers of Wolverine had his claws not be part of his body but an extension of his gloves. Originally they weren't long knives in his arms, they were telescoping tubes of adamantium that were just 1mm thick (since adamantium was so strong, they could still destroy things despite being so thin), that extended from his gloves. Wolverine was never seen with his claws without his gloves on back in the day, and everybody always wondered if they were really part of his body or not. This is why the oldest versions of Wolverine's claws didn't look like knife blades, but more tubular and ribbed (indicating the sections in their telescoping). Hell, it was years before Wolverine was even drawn without his mask. Later his claws were written to be part of his body, and not his gloves, because if anybody could wear the gloves he wouldn't be unique as a character. Wolverine was also originally kind of a "villain of the week" that just comes out of nowhere, is there for the Hulk to fight for a while, then be totally forgotten. Why a Wolverine? Because they're tiny short animals that are incredibly fierce, taking on animals many times their size. Later he became part of the X-men, but he was just kind of a filler extra character that was just there for the background, he was kind of comic relief and dumb. He'd get angry, charge the enemy, get beat up, and the reader would laugh. He was going to be written out of the books but then Canadian writer John Bryne felt a kinship with this Canadian character, didn't want to let one of these few Canuck characters disappear, so Bryne gave him much more purpose and depth. This was further elaborated and built upon by Chris Claremont. If Claremont has to keep this character that gets angry and rushes at the enemy like a fool, well dammit, Claremont was going to make damn sure to give this character purpose for doing so besides being comic relief. This is really when Wolverine took off as a character. His reasons for always rushing to fight became things like he was an angry killer with a horrible past, where he would constantly kill and fight. He wasn't a nice guy, he was a ticking time bomb. “He has to fight to control himself, but what would make him a hero in my vision of him was that he would be able to overcome his natural instincts to slit your throat. That was what really would make him a hero, not his abilities to beat you up. The fighting was what he lived for". The writers had to really push the envelope to justify this this character, an angry violent killer, into an honorable hero that people would look up to, while still keeping his blood thirst there. Such a balance of intense good and intense evil is probably what fascinates people to this character and made him such a fan favorite. He stopped being an angry idiot, and started being a viscous man who always had to hold his anger in check, but be honorable enough to stay with the X-men (a group meant to portray heroes). Then stories about his anger explaining his rage, how he was the loose cannon in the group always with a short fuse. The justification of claws being part of his body took his backstory places. What if he has a healing factor to allow him to survive popping his claws? What if he's really old? Lacing his bones with adamantium seems to have been inspired by the concept of "what if his bones didn't heal? How about we have his bones reinforced?" etc. There was also talk about Sabertooth being his father, but everybody had guessed that this was true back in the day, so there would be no twist. Thus Sabertooth was written to be his brother. The reason why he was called Weapon X (Weapon 10), was because he was the tenth attempt at recreating the super soldier, with Weapon I (Weapon 1) being Captain America. There's tons to talk about the character, but I think I'd better stop writing. Here's two links that go into detail about Wolverine secretsbehindthexmen.blogspot.com/2012/01/wolverines-secret-origin.html blog.gocollect.com/john-byrnes-best-wolverine/ Lastly here's a little tidbit about Wolverine's original name (Logan). He's the shortest Canadian character, and the twist is he was named after the tallest mountain in Canada, Mount Logan!
Did anyone know that Captian America also has a healing factor to his healing factor isn’t as fast as wolverines but cap can heal a hella lot faster than a normal human
Don't sleep on Hoskins, he has the chops to pull it off... that being said, I would've loved for Tom Hardy to take a crack at it. I think he would be an awesome Wolverine! 🤘🏼
Sabertooth: "Jimmy" I loved it and think James Howlett is actually a strong mature name! Logan is strong but a unisex name so I prefer James. Imagine him saying: "Heeerrrreeee'sss Jimmy!!!" with adamantium claws shooting out of his hands...
@@riderwelch7588 My Uncle thinks it is was also his father's name. Looks slot like Old Man Logan, height (5'5) and build apart from the waist. He doesn't have a healing factor, so unfortunately the beers have caught up.
Wolverine didn't stay dead when he was buried in the end of Logan. Considering that he has an aggressive healing factor and that X-24 is actually an upgraded clone that's immune to the virus that's slowly killing off mutants all over the world, X-24's blood would had eventually upgrade Logan's healing factor. With X-24 being brain dead but technically the rest of his body's still alive, Logan has a good chance of surviving a head transplant if he got some assistance in placing his severed head into X-24's headless body. X-23 could had helped him do the head transplant. Anyway with Logan being exposed to X-23&X-24's blood like an HIV infection, wouldn't stay dead after he was buried. Also technically X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine too so her healing factor should be compatible if Logan was ever exposed to her blood.
@@nishatebear-coolmanxx6475 Like everyone else, I'm still stuck inside the house because of CVD19 and got nothing better to do than watch things on youtube. I've rewatched the entire MCU films a couple of times already. Plus i've watched way too many HISHE too.

Now imagine this. Deadpool brings Wolverine back to life by giving Wolverine Deadpools powers to regrow everything and anything and the healing process as well. Meaning tat Wolverine would be able to come back to life and be able to be himself again just with more healing powers and regrowth power as well making him none kill able anymore. So that means the poison that killed Wolverine would be no more because how stronger his healing process is and how fast everything can regrow.
You know Deadpool has Wolverines healing factor right? Deadpool literally had Wolverines mutation injected in him. Plus even in the comics Wolverines had to deal with the adamantium poisoning. It's only because his healing factor that it took almost 100 years.
the thing ids i belive there is a person for each character like Chris even IS capatin America and none else can be it , thor, wolverine, superman, spiderman, vision, gean grey , flash, arrow, and even iron man are all those characters that have found their forever dudes or galls, i wont watch another movie if they arent in it as their characters so if ya chjnage i ain't EVER watching it. btw no more batman since the vampire diude from twilight is gonna be him next !! i ain't intersted
Wolverine can eat himself temporarily to sustain his healing factor. He does need to eat normal food tho in the long run because he cannot regen without the nutrients.
![Megan Thee Stallion - Roc Steady (feat. Flo Milli) [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/HozPPyqW0dY/mqdefault.jpg)
He was also very strong because his bones weighed so much from the adamantium. Lugging around hundreds of pounds of metal on your body and having accelerated muscle regen made him a beast
fun fact, Spiderman could be used to launch Wolverine for the fastball special. since cannocally Spiderman can lift up to 10 tonnes.
Wait I’m not really smart but wouldn’t it be smarter if they only added adamantium to his bone claws
@@malraz2297 no. Because his bones would break every time he used his claws. Making his Bones coated actually makes his bones unbreakable
SKEEZO THEREALSKEEZO but his bones would just heal very fast so he wouldn’t be poisoned but still have adamantium claws
Wow nice facts
One thing I love about wolverine, when he tries to focus and fight collected he's good. But when he rages out.........he's literally unstoppable.
His also 5’3 ft in the comic and cartoon. This was to represent his similarities to a Wolverine, small but ferocious. You’ll notice this in the cartoons and comics where people always call him little man, where he responds “how about I cut you down”
I really hope they make his next big screen representation a short person. We don't have a super hero to brag about.
According to the original marvel superheroes series about the heroes and villains and their powers, Wolverine was 5 foot even.Can't even remember what the name of the series was or when it came out. late 1970's, I think
Not saying you’re wrong in that. I just know that everything I’ve ever read since I was a kid has said he was 5’3”. Either way, that’s pretty short.

>*"a healthy, buff bod"*
... is not what he had. He got the ripped look the same way wrestlers and MMA fighters fake their weight, by severe dehydration. For the earlier movies it was at least 24hrs without drinking water, by the time he hit Logan he was up to 3 days. That's borderline lethal territory. Henry Cavill does the same thing for The Witcher which, again, is very unhealthy.
Putting on the mass for those muscles is a bit more of a grey area, but short version it's a lot more protein than the average person is consuming and has been linked to heart disease. It's kind of funny. A healthy and fit person looks nothing like what you see on TV or in cinema.

What nobody realized is that he carried the whole xmen franchise by himself
hopefully MCU can do it properly
That he did, my friend. Just the same way as Robert Downey Jr. IS Ironman, Hugh Jackman IS The Wolverine. No one else will be able to portray the beast the way Jackman did for quite a long time to come. We saw that raging beast for the last time in the climax scenes of "Logan", and his final line was no less a classic than Tony Starks' in Endgame .. Logan: So that's what it feels like ..
@@oqtave.studio Logan R rated was the best thing, wasnt it :)
@@WarriorPleb Indeed !!!
And Cyclops is the leader of the X-Men, not Wolverine.
That was a lot of the problem, it was not the "Xmen". It was the Wolverine series. I hated the way Fox handled the movies. I just can't understand the reasoning behind buying the rights to an established series like that, then just ignoring the vast majority of the source material. Like First Class or whatever ..... that was NOT the original team of Xmen. The destroyed the comic story and cut out a huge story arc that would have been great to see ... The Morlocks. Of course they would have had to use Angel which they did not seem to like to do. Seeing Angel lose his wings in the comics gave a much deeper understanding of why he accepted the offer from Apocalypse.
*spiderman and wolverine are UNDOUBTEDLY the most iconic/popular marvel characters EVER*
I always thought of Spider-Man and Hulk as most popular until RDJ started playing iron man. I feel like spidey and iron man are the most popular now. Idk I guess it depends who sells the most toys
They are and a long time ago I read a comic called Wolverine vs Spiderman. That was my all time favourite
No. Ppl love Cyclops the most.

Hulk, Spiderman, Wolverine, Ironman, and Captain America, are the most iconic popular characters in the Marvel universe?
On his power letting him forget, it was better described on "how to kill Deadpool." His healing factor can repair his brain, but not necessarily regenerate the nerve patterns which encode memories. So, every serious head injury that would liquify the brain, he heals but would have it affect his memory.
Some things you missed:
He's Peter Parker's uncle on his father's side, and was actually there when Pete was born, congratulating his father.
Deadpool's healing factor _is_ Wolverine's as well.
He had a tryst with Squirrelgirl when she was around 18.
He animalistic side prevents him from committing suicide and has forced him to survive several times when he wanted to die.
He's met, and killed, several alternative versions of himself. Not just clones or robots, actual hims from other earths.
He and Dr. Doom have a peculiar relationship of mutual respect and have played chess together more than they've fought.
so logan and peter are related?

The craziest thing about wolverine to me is that he's actually the lowest class of mutant, but is still strong enough to stand up to a ton of much stronger mutants.
Lowest class in what sense? Only a handful of mutants can survive Wolverine at close range. This guy is an unstoppable killing machine.

In Logan the fact that he was losing his healing abilities was not connected with being poiaoned by his skeleton. The main plot why mutant were gone was causing him to lose his powers, as he also ate and drank a lot of corn syroup which was geneticly modified to suppress Gene X

The MCU needs to highlight Wolverine's martial arts background. That is pretty much the only thing I felt was missing from the great Hugh Jackman's performance.
Why? Because he wasn't karate chopping or tiger dancing? Real martial arts are effective, not pretty.
@@penname8380 so martial artists cant be street fighters also or combat tacticians? Wolverine is not just a martial artist, bub. He is a trained killer, spy and soldier. So the things you said about karate chopping or tiger dancing are nothing but cringe, dude. 😂
I recall Wolverine going through pain every time he used his claws, it even would vary when and how fast he would heal. One point in an Alpha Flight issue, he was going through the hardest time using his claws because he wasn't healing as well at that time.
for sure. With some of these characters that have been around for decades and decades, there's SO MUCH comic book lore. Sometimes to keep things fresh, they vary or re-invent their powers all together.

Me:
That implies there are multiple angry Canadians, but there is only one mad Canadian, Wolverine
One of my favorite comic book arcs is Wolverine #100 where Genesis tried to put adamantium back into Wolverine (Magneto ripped it out) to make him a horseman of Apocalypse. Because of the intense pain, he rejected the adamantium and entered an unstoppable rage, killing Genesis and the Dark Riders showing just how powerful he can become when he doesn't control his rage.
Yeah, I remember that lol Logan for a bit turned into a large, feral beast thing. That was a great issue and arc.
The best there is at what he does. Indeed.
Man, I’m so glad Hugh played Logan, he was and is the best!
Other than Hugh Jackman playing Wolverine is questionable.
Hugh Jackman carry that character to the next lvl.
Hugh Jackman couldn't do a Yukon/Albertan Canadian accent at gunpoint.
When I heard about an X-Men movie coming out, my first choice for Wolverine was the wrestler Chris Benoit.
Adamantium bullets don't penetrate adamanium skulls. Just one of many derps that made that movie stupid.
you could say it just hit his head with enough force to turn his brain into smoothie
@@jeffmayo6002 Gunpowder is gunpowder, no matter what the slug is made of. The adamantium didn't make the gunpowder more powerful. Wolverine got shot in the forehead many times in the X-Men movies, with no brain scrambling. You don't owe the Origin writers the mental gymnastics it takes to make them appear unstupid.
Adamantium can't break adamantium?
@@mech-dragon1445 That's correct.
@@mech-dragon1445 Once it solidifies no nothing can and only vibranium is harder.
3:20 he said Wolverine forgot his whole name.
The official story should have been that: Logan forgot it, because his original brain was melted in getting Adamantium injection.
That’d answer the question if he could heal from total brain loss. The Adamantium would have been molten for a while, inhibiting the brains cortex. After a long while, his healing power wouldn’t retain the thoughts of those brain cells.
Prof X would only get so far
He’d need Dr Stranges ability to look into a soul. That would clear everything up completely. Till then, he’s just a lost soul, no matter what he does.
We are mere mortals to this man you sir are the equivalent to the man who Rickrolled Rick Ashley
@@bigjahthegreat1086 100 percent not how it was in the comics.
When I first got into wolverine, with the graphic novel series back in the late 80's, I always thought that if there was a movie ever made about wolverine, Clint Eastwood would've been the perfect choice , because if you look at how his character is, and how he's drawn in the comics there is definitively a resemblance to the young eastwood.
But at that time and for years before, wolverine was popular but not like how it eventually took off years later.
In fact, I'd go as far as to say that the creators of wolverine modeled him off clint eastwood.
I always cast Mel Gibson in the role. late 80s early 90s Mel
Logan was the name of his real father who happened to be the grounds keeper
I still laugh at my friends who named their sons Logan after Wolverine. Should be James! Also, Logan is a berry that rivals lichi.
or Logan James
Thomas logan was the groundskeeper name.
That's the movie version. Comic origins had the bone-claws as a hereditary nature of the Howlett family; probably related to how they got the name Howlett in the first place... James' healing factor might be unique to him though, seeing how his father was killed and his grandfather died of old age, with no indication of having lived extremely long.
@@Blitzo2876 Off-topic: Did you mean longan? IMHO, those fruits are longan and lychee (at least in my country).
"Who knows how long he would live?"
Uhhh, Albert and Elsie Dee. They tracked him through literal centuries. About 300 years past the X-Men era.
its abit of a plothole because his healing factor keeps his cells young meaning aslong as it works he is kind of inmortal to aging but in the canon he technicly grows old very slowly.
"He was born in the 80s....that is the 1880s!" and then immediately shows a clip of him fighting in the American Civil War as an adult which took place the 1860s. Real good stuff guys.
In the movies his dob is 1832 I think
The movie begins in 1845 so may be right about DOB in 1832. Yeah very dumb as the Civil War takes place in the 1860's!
😂
I guess they don't do proper research before making these list
Lol
I've loved every movie with wolverine. I would like to see a heck of a lot more, and if they find another replacement, he better be able to play the hell out of it like Hugh did lol. Keep me in the loop of potentials though
Wolverine was trapped in some kinda silver stuff for like 2 years and he still LIVED WITH NO AIR
He was dead. It was only till kitty removed him and removed the adamantium from his brain,that he started to heal. They explain it in finding Wolverine and Wolverine lives
My favorite part of wolverine is even if you get past Professor X's defenses you still have to worry about every single wolverine that was locked away in wolverines mind. Like when demons took over his body and were fighting his mind for control. They weren't expecting a version of him who thought he was Jean. Aka the Phoenix
I always hated the adamantium poisoning him thing. Marvel can never leave well enough alone.
It’s actually the regen. Just like Xavier’s abilities killing him.
In the comics, he loses his healing factor due to a virus from another universe and starts developing blood poisoning from popping his claws and the wound getting infected...what were the movies supposed to do with that?
they wouldn’t be doing it if hugh jackman wasn’t getting old
and why would that matter when hes got a crazy deadpool level of healing (deadpool actually gets his healing factor from wolverine in the comics)
anytime a character gets too powerful they put a stopgap like for spider-man it is his strong convictions he battled wolverine once and wolverine told him that the only way to stop him was to use all his strength and break his neck but we both know that you don't have it in you to kill
Watching Hugh's body transformation is insane. How you bring up the aging factor and werewolves and don't mention feral wolverine
Even with the steroids I'm impressed
Hugh & his scream/ howl. No one else could've played this role the last 20 years.
Born in the 1880s yet was full grown fighting in the civil war which ended in 1865.
Yeah he messed that one up...
that's a movie plothole. In the movies he was born in the 1830s, comic wise he was born in the 1880s

Covid-19: I'm here
Wolverine: hold my beer
No wolverine be like "hold ma cigar man"
*holds beer*
*infects Wolverine with Covid-19 and extracts antivirus from Wolverine's blood. Goodnight Covid-19!
Most humans shrug off covid-19 as though it were nothing. One doesn't need to have the healing abilities of wolverine for covid-19; a strong immune system of a fit human being will do.
So if just a drop of blood can remake him entirely, I have one big question, wouldn't that make him reborn as he was before the weapon x modifications? I mean the Adamantium was added to his bones during the weaponizing process, it is not a part of him naturally, so how could he regrow the metal not to mention it's not organic, it would just be his bones. So technically he would be himself before the weapon x program gave him the remarkable metal. Seems like a big thing to overlook.
In the one comic that he was regenerated from a drop of blood the drop was on top of the Adamantium skeleton. I would say if the blood was not near the skeleton, then yeah pre skeleton augments unless his healing factor can regenerate the adamantium which I don't think it can since that is what is actually killing him.
Dude. This happened in The Wolverine movie. His adamantium claws got cut off. They regenerated as his original bone claws.
@@hotshotbt2005 i dislike this reference but you're right. bone claws
Wouldn't the entire earth be over run with wolverines from every time he bled?
@@DANTHETUBEMAN in the comic he was only able to regenerate from a drop of blood from energy provided by either the shi'ar crystal or else Roma who had for some reason taken an interest in the x-men in general. without external power sources he could not do it.
If a single drop of Logan's blood can grow a new Wolverine, then if Wolverine lost a bunch of blood, would a horde of Wolverines grow from it? Seems like a plot hole to me.
You're talking about super heroes dude. It's all one big plot hole 😂
There is something in the Marvel comic-verse that negates multiple versions. It goes for a lot of the Wolverine-level healers. Deadpool is one of the few that skewed this, but it took a heck of a long time and a lot of the random left behind parts.
my headcanon for this is that since souls are also a thing in comics, may be we can say that the lost blood wouldn't have a soul since the full body wolverine is still kicking around and wouldn't try to grow back
They did that with sabertooth in the old man logan or dead man logan series.
Needs the energy to regrow. Deadpool however because of the cancer will and ha done it
Great, showing an image of Wolverine fighting in the civil war circa 1860, while saying he was born 20 years later. Awesome editing job.
Also, did Canadians fight in the Civil War?
wel in the movie he might have been born earlier because canon wize he is technicly born somewhere 1864
His DOB in the movie is 1832
Wolverine was born in 1832 and was the result of an affair between the grounds keeper and rich man's wife who lived in America.
There was a story line where he regenerated from a single cell in less than a minute. It's the one where they're hunting for a rogue mutant who wipes out a whole city after taking a power enhancing drug. This was probably peak regeneration, I believe they toned it down not long after.
Wolverine is one bad dude, kinda miss seeing him in movies already, luckily I can see him in comics still, glad you made this video cause not many people really know how many abilities he really does have, I think the movies tend to make him more human-like, in actuality he’s a lot tougher and can’t be taken down so easily
What I didn't really like about the movies is they dumbed him down. One of the big appeals to Wolverine, at least for me, was the fact of how intelligent and formidable he really is. He's been around a long time and he knows quite a lot from covert operations, to languages, hacking, strategies, fighting styles and so much more. He's a pilot for god's sake and they make him out to be a nauseous person on flights in the jet. Love Hugh playing him, but really, really wish the writers would've gone way more above and beyond to capture what makes the character so great.

I just want to point out 2 things:
1: with the weightlifting/strength building call-out, you could have mentioned him lugging around ~130lbs of adamantium; dude is never not working out!
2: Number 8's point. Wolvie has both been reduced to just a head, and had everything but his bones (and brain I think) burnt away, and recovered from both.
To point #4 and talking about how his healing factor eliminates the "curses" of being a Vampire or Werewolf because it replaces his damaged cell's the same thing would happen with his body being "poisoned" by the adamantium. It would have to poison him at a rate so high that the healing factor couldn't repair/replace his damaged cells quick enough to negate the poisoning, in which case he'd never have survived for as long has he did after the initial procedure was done.
I remember a very subtle detail from the X-Men cartoon when the team travels to the Savage Land to stop Mr. Sinister. When the heroes all lose their powers, Wolverine tells the villains, "There's nothing mutant about these!" He pops his claws, and it visibly hurts him to do so.
'woarrrr'
as a 40yr fan i kinda preferred it when we still had no idea about the exact details of his origin..
i also remember when his claws were drawn to spring out his wrists & not his hands & of course they were believed to be solid metal..also when it comes to the movies they haven't used his heightened senses ability enuff.
& Jackman looks the part (except way too tall) but has never quite nailed my favorite character.
Totally agree with everything you said also 40 and remember those days too and Hugh Jackman did say that he had no idea who or how to play wolverine so there's that
Yeah, I am also a decades long fan of Wolverine, mutants, etc. and found it quite lame how Fox changed the claws to come out between his fingers.
I am hoping when Marvel brings out Wolverine that they put Logan's claws back to how they have always been in the comic books, along with the original origins of all of their mutants being used too.
Not the overly used rebooted versions of their characters.
I believe the claws are STORED in his forearms - but extend out through his hands. In fact, if I remember right, in age of apocalypse he got his hand blown off but still had the claws in his forearm
Yup originally, the design was to have the claws housed in the gloves he wore. But got messed up or improved along with his mask design as artists changed.
Mel Gibson but years b4??
It wasn't actually the adamantium that was killing Logan. It was a chemical that was put in the corn. Being as Logan drank a lot, the chemical was inhibiting his healing ability.
Also, wolverine was originally one of the founding members of the Canadian superhero group called Alpha flight. The comics back in the 1970's had several encounters between the X-Men and Alpha Flight because Alpha Flight wanted him back.
I wonder how people don't realized that yet, he has no problem with adamantium
@@haljordan9607 It's mentioned in the movie Logan how they out something in the corn syrup (used in making whiskey, among other things) that robs mutants of their powers.
He feels pain, he's said multiple times it hurts when the claws come out. N comparison to being blown up etc, it's not as bad on his scale as it would b on ours
I like to think with that line, "does it hurt? When they come out?" He says "Everytime." I feel like he means that he does the hurting when they come out.
@@KootenaiKing no he's clearly talking about the pain he feels everytime he pops his claws. It would only last for a second and automatically heal as soon as they come out but the pain is still there everytime
wolverine was actually born in the 1830's, since he did fight in the civil war in the 1860's
One alt. Universe has him fighting in the war of 1812
That's where u are wrong wolverine has served as a soldier in the Ming dynasty as well read the weapon x novel
1832 is when he was born
He was 197 in logan
logan was set in 2029
So 2029-197=1832
His powers started at a young age unsure what age
In many comics on other universes he lives longer
And necessarily if he never got the adimantim in his body and didn't have to fight so many people
Logan could live to be over 600
Yeah, I was like what?
i have a comic book that says he was born in 1867 the war you see him in was the first world war i think which started in 1914 but he has been in other conflicts aswel.
even wiki says somewhere arround 1880 but my book says 1867,youre 1830 is from the movies not from the comics.

every time.
*Correction* Logan does feel the pain of his claws popping out but due to his healing factor it doesn't last long

Just because you play an character for a long time doesn't make you the most dedicated.
Christian Bale is way more devoted to his roles
You need Dead pool to fight you
RBJ is the the GOAT
Adam West...
I thought that in Logan they was putting stuff in the foods and drinks that cancels out the mutant gene being the reason why mutants no longer exist and Wolverine and Prof. X were deteriorating being the last of the original mutants. Also the mutant children where protected due to experimental needs which is why Laura (X23) was instantly hooked on the food and drink from the gas station when she first tried it.
Just imagine a guy watching this named james and has a brother named Logan who everyone likes better than him
I feel as if he is one of the most tragic hero’s imagine being born sickly and poor in a time a judgement and pain getting powers at 12 killing his father then fighting world war 2 then getting and dealing with his animalistic and beastly urges then the weapon x programs
The science behind old man Logan. Having his bones completely covered in bone, and with bones being the only source of fresh new red and white blood cells. For Logan, he never received any new blood cells and with the metal graphs to his entire skeleton, any body including Wolverine's considers that a trauma or an injury. Therefore, his healing factor is constantly going, that doesn't include additional injuries. With both of these huge handicaps, his healing factor continues to try to keep him at "factory specs" and the lack of one critical biological function begins to wear on his physique, causing his healing factor to work harder and harder every time he gets injured. With 200 years of walking the earth, he didn't age at ALL since becoming a fully grown and mature. Then gets the adamantium in the late 70s-early 80s. Only about 50-70 years after that does Logan even begin showing signs of significant age. Ultimately, his death can be directly attributed to the adamantium, since his death was a result of far too much bodily injury (in Old Man Logan anyways).
His biology doesn't make sense at all. He would have to eat an insane amount of food nonstop to regenerate any damage he receives. Also, where do his claws retract? They are clearly longer than his palms.
2:05 my dude literally foreshadowed wolverine in the battle pass
They forgot to mention his other metabolic problem: Wolverine eats a LOT. (Which begs the question of why there aren't Wolverine droppings every 2 blocks in New York.)
What if the droppings healed their self and became more wolverines
I have always wondered how Wolverine is able to sleep since he regens instantly and constantly, how does he manage to force himself asleep. A real life Wolverine would probably go insane from his mind never being able to rest. Also if Wolverine actually tried lifting weights to bodybuild or increase strength he would be the largest and strongest human ever considering he heals instantly.
I just hope when the new wolverine comes out we would see an agile and expert fighter as he is supposed to be.
And a Hugh jackman look

Whilst Professor X did put certain Psychic protections in place, in Wolverines mind, it’s also known that his healing factor also makes it EXTREMELY difficult for even Omega level telepaths to read his mind, and that’s because his healing factor is constantly regenerating the cells in his brain.
For example, in X Men #25, after Magneto ripped the Adamantium from his skeleton, it took the combined effort of Professor X and Jean Grey to keep his mind from registering the damage done to his body. So that shows the level of natural psychic protection in place, when it took 2 of the most powerful Omega level telepaths on Earth, and maybe the Universe, just to keep him alive…..

Originally, before they went a different way with the origin stories and it was unknown who/what Wolverine really was, the writers of Wolverine had his claws not be part of his body but an extension of his gloves. Originally they weren't long knives in his arms, they were telescoping tubes of adamantium that were just 1mm thick (since adamantium was so strong, they could still destroy things despite being so thin), that extended from his gloves. Wolverine was never seen with his claws without his gloves on back in the day, and everybody always wondered if they were really part of his body or not. This is why the oldest versions of Wolverine's claws didn't look like knife blades, but more tubular and ribbed (indicating the sections in their telescoping). Hell, it was years before Wolverine was even drawn without his mask. Later his claws were written to be part of his body, and not his gloves, because if anybody could wear the gloves he wouldn't be unique as a character.
Wolverine was also originally kind of a "villain of the week" that just comes out of nowhere, is there for the Hulk to fight for a while, then be totally forgotten. Why a Wolverine? Because they're tiny short animals that are incredibly fierce, taking on animals many times their size. Later he became part of the X-men, but he was just kind of a filler extra character that was just there for the background, he was kind of comic relief and dumb. He'd get angry, charge the enemy, get beat up, and the reader would laugh. He was going to be written out of the books but then Canadian writer John Bryne felt a kinship with this Canadian character, didn't want to let one of these few Canuck characters disappear, so Bryne gave him much more purpose and depth. This was further elaborated and built upon by Chris Claremont. If Claremont has to keep this character that gets angry and rushes at the enemy like a fool, well dammit, Claremont was going to make damn sure to give this character purpose for doing so besides being comic relief. This is really when Wolverine took off as a character. His reasons for always rushing to fight became things like he was an angry killer with a horrible past, where he would constantly kill and fight. He wasn't a nice guy, he was a ticking time bomb. “He has to fight to control himself, but what would make him a hero in my vision of him was that he would be able to overcome his natural instincts to slit your throat. That was what really would make him a hero, not his abilities to beat you up. The fighting was what he lived for". The writers had to really push the envelope to justify this this character, an angry violent killer, into an honorable hero that people would look up to, while still keeping his blood thirst there. Such a balance of intense good and intense evil is probably what fascinates people to this character and made him such a fan favorite.
He stopped being an angry idiot, and started being a viscous man who always had to hold his anger in check, but be honorable enough to stay with the X-men (a group meant to portray heroes). Then stories about his anger explaining his rage, how he was the loose cannon in the group always with a short fuse. The justification of claws being part of his body took his backstory places. What if he has a healing factor to allow him to survive popping his claws? What if he's really old? Lacing his bones with adamantium seems to have been inspired by the concept of "what if his bones didn't heal? How about we have his bones reinforced?" etc. There was also talk about Sabertooth being his father, but everybody had guessed that this was true back in the day, so there would be no twist. Thus Sabertooth was written to be his brother.
The reason why he was called Weapon X (Weapon 10), was because he was the tenth attempt at recreating the super soldier, with Weapon I (Weapon 1) being Captain America.
There's tons to talk about the character, but I think I'd better stop writing. Here's two links that go into detail about Wolverine

Lastly here's a little tidbit about Wolverine's original name (Logan). He's the shortest Canadian character, and the twist is he was named after the tallest mountain in Canada, Mount Logan!
I would like to see Hugh Jackman back as The Wolverine, that would be Awesome.
For the hell of it, I want a comedy where Danny DeVito is Wolverine.
Did anyone know that Captian America also has a healing factor to his healing factor isn’t as fast as wolverines but cap can heal a hella lot faster than a normal human
The family friend he killed was actually his real father whose name was logan.
If he fought in the civil war he was born way before the 1880"s.
Rogue? Captain Marvel? Then end of Brie Larson? Yes!! 😀😀😀😀
Please
😄😄😄
Wow butthurt incels much?
That would be nice.
Lol
Don't sleep on Hoskins, he has the chops to pull it off... that being said, I would've loved for Tom Hardy to take a crack at it. I think he would be an awesome Wolverine! 🤘🏼
John burthenal all the way bro
NOBODY but Jackman could have played Wolverine. Nobody else could be so gentle a person and portray such a savage killing machine.
James Howlet does sound cool actually.
Yea but imagine if Logan was called "James" instead
Sabertooth: "Jimmy"
I loved it and think James Howlett is actually a strong mature name! Logan is strong but a unisex name so I prefer James. Imagine him saying: "Heeerrrreeee'sss Jimmy!!!" with adamantium claws shooting out of his hands...
@@riderwelch7588 My Uncle thinks it is was also his father's name.
Looks slot like Old Man Logan, height (5'5) and build apart from the waist.
He doesn't have a healing factor, so unfortunately the beers have caught up.
Wolverine didn't stay dead when he was buried in the end of Logan. Considering that he has an aggressive healing factor and that X-24 is actually an upgraded clone that's immune to the virus that's slowly killing off mutants all over the world, X-24's blood would had eventually upgrade Logan's healing factor. With X-24 being brain dead but technically the rest of his body's still alive, Logan has a good chance of surviving a head transplant if he got some assistance in placing his severed head into X-24's headless body. X-23 could had helped him do the head transplant. Anyway with Logan being exposed to X-23&X-24's blood like an HIV infection, wouldn't stay dead after he was buried. Also technically X-23 is a female clone of Wolverine too so her healing factor should be compatible if Logan was ever exposed to her blood.
Jon Bonda you don’t have a fuqing life do you
@@nishatebear-coolmanxx6475 Like everyone else, I'm still stuck inside the house because of CVD19 and got nothing better to do than watch things on youtube. I've rewatched the entire MCU films a couple of times already. Plus i've watched way too many HISHE too.
Jon Bonda I like your logic! Hope everyone is staying healthy and safe
The only issue is that hugh jackman thinks it’s over
Damn that was a gud comeback
Wolverine actually killed all of them in the comics.. that’s how powerful and skilled he is
Wait if his healing factor builds immunity and adaption over time how did his adamantium poison him?
Old age slowed his healing ability. So it couldn't stop the poisoning completely..
Logan was born in 1832
1882*
@@JimHowlett-yp5pm No if you have watched the movie wolverine origins logan was a kid in 1845
JimHowlett 1804 that and he couldn’t have been in The US Civil War in the 1860s

Doit toit FUCK YOU ASSHOLE
Ha ha his memory was blocked on the orders of his past boss pack leader Romulus he can heal from bullets ripping his brain up
Finally someone said something about where rogue got like half her powers. Thank you. Can't wait to see rogue wrap her hands around Carol Danvers throat.
Now imagine this. Deadpool brings Wolverine back to life by giving Wolverine Deadpools powers to regrow everything and anything and the healing process as well. Meaning tat Wolverine would be able to come back to life and be able to be himself again just with more healing powers and regrowth power as well making him none kill able anymore. So that means the poison that killed Wolverine would be no more because how stronger his healing process is and how fast everything can regrow.
You know Deadpool has Wolverines healing factor right? Deadpool literally had Wolverines mutation injected in him. Plus even in the comics Wolverines had to deal with the adamantium poisoning. It's only because his healing factor that it took almost 100 years.
the thing ids i belive there is a person for each character like Chris even IS capatin America and none else can be it , thor, wolverine, superman, spiderman, vision, gean grey , flash, arrow, and even iron man are all those characters that have found their forever dudes or galls, i wont watch another movie if they arent in it as their characters so if ya chjnage i ain't EVER watching it. btw no more batman since the vampire diude from twilight is gonna be him next !! i ain't intersted
Jean grey*
I can't wait for Rogue to take Captain Marvel's powers, lol
Imagine , X-Men vs Avengers
Without ironman and wolverine..
Woa that's deep 4 me
Wolverine can eat himself temporarily to sustain his healing factor. He does need to eat normal food tho in the long run because he cannot regen without the nutrients.
Wouldn't this turn him (temporarily as we have seen how curses stick with him) into a wendigo? I believe those creatures are cannon to marvel....
X-Men would've heavily flopped without Hugh Jackman
Title of video:
