15 Hidden Powers Of Wolverine That Even The Die Hard Fans Forget About It - Explored

[@NEUR0MANCER_]

Got some stuff right, other stuff wasnt well elaborated on. Wolverines powers didnt manifest until about 10-13. about the age boys go through puberty. He was able to grow to maturity soon after, and his appearance was more or less the same. Wolverine is NOT immortal. He does age. But it slowed over time due to the effects his healing factor had on his physiology. Before his powers manifested logan was actually a sickly child. He was always made to stay inside and his only playmate was his half brother dog logan. This was changed to sabertooth in the wolverine origins film. But before we knew it was dog, it was strongly implied sabertooth WAS his half brother. Considering the similarities between Dog logan and victor creed. The reason for this is the kind of mutation wolverine and sabertooth has. They come from a race of feline/canine hybrid like hominids, meaning they had characteristics of both. This lupine gene pool would include other feral, and wolf or cat like mutants. Wolverine, has the X gene, but his mutation, is differnt in nature. Being that it turns a human more animalistic, almost like they were spliced with a lion or a panther. Logans mother was over protective, but when his power manifested she feared him, and he accidently killed her, in a blind berserk rage. Wolverine is 5'3, so technically he stopped growing once he entered his preteen years. This is why he is so small in stature, but has all the characteristics of a man in his late 30s. This was apart of his mutation, very much like when night crawler, and other mutants powers manifested. Once they reach a certain age, the X gene activates and their physical appearance adapts to their mutation and this can occur in a number of differnt ways. Colosus, was a preteen when he grew to nearly 7 foot tall, and developed staggering muscle mass. same with toad, beast and daken. Daken actually explains how wolverine aged. When daken was born, it was the 1900s, he was adopted by a japanese family, and grew to develop his mutant powers, and while physically he grew to his peak in a short period, he still had the body of a teenager up until he joined weapon X. The same occured for wolverine, and X23. They age slower. they are NOT immortal. Also wolverine knows almost every kind of martial art, which he incorporates into his fighting style with claws. Including martial arts with the ninja sai, acrobatics, and many differnt forms of martial arts. In the comics wolverines fighting style has to be the coolest. Because he is such an effective fighter, that he can beat even the most gifted super heroes in combat. In fact, the concept of weapon X in the weapons plus program, was a designated anti super hero weapon. With super humans growing in number, since cap, they wanted a weapon that could kill any super hero and penetrate their defences Hence why wolverines bones was laced with adamatium and not vibranium or titanium. They have special properties that can penetrate even the most powerful super hman defenses. In fact, wolverine claws can pierce the skin of the hulk AND thor, because he IS an anti super hero, super hero.

[@Psy8ern3t1k]

Didn’t Logan’s healing ability also adapt to regrow the adamantium on his skeleton after it was ripped out by Magneto?

[@shanegreen9511]

@@Psy8ern3t1k not was replaced after he spent a period without the adamantium while utilizing bone claws Logan began to grow more feral as apparently the experience of getting your skeleton ripped out can seriously test a person. But like everything in marvel that which dies or goes away always comes back when a clever enough writer can figure out a good excuse and storyline. Too bad none of the movies seem to utilize these excellent writers because the storylines in most of the movies suck horrendously. Make mine somebody else because Disney ruined Marvel ☹️

[@AlejandroRamirez-rx1py]

That's how it was in the early stages of Claremont run and into Jim Lee's run. It wasn't until the movies that they portrayed him as a brawler that instead of using his array of martial art skills set and other forms of fighting.

[@firatmengi5715]

Wolverine is like the superman of mutants only less powerful with no flying laser stuff but with skillful ablities supersoldier Level and useful animalistic powers

[@newsmith]

I've been reading X-men and Wolverine comics on/off from the late 80's. His healing factor is truly remarkable but it has now grown to the point of insanity. Case in point: he used to take hours to recover from a gunshot and days from major combat such as having a sword thrust through him. Now, he can regrow his entire body when it was burned to his skeleton from the Civil Wars books. I remember that he was able to regrow his body only when a certain powerful crystal was involved or else he would have died.

[@Murrf]

Maybe that comes with age. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@mrjayz94]

There’s an actual in-universe reason for this. When Mags removed his adamantium in the 90’s, his healing factor went through a second mutation of sorts and became much more powerful as adamantium wasn’t hindering his healing factor.

Movies have not yet showed his berserker rage, his face literally changes(eyes and all) and he will attack everything, like a wild rabid, mindless animal. Hopefully, they show it in the DP3 movie. Only that Xmen Japanese anime series, depicted Logans Berserker mode...minus the comic books of course.

You still have forgot a few Powers. like his Heat Claws. yes he can overheat his claws and make them extreemly hot. 18:54 and this is still one of the coolest stand offs in Movie history. His flesh ripped away and instantly healing looks absolute amazin to this day.

[@AlejandroRamirez-rx1py]

The heat claws were short-lived in the Return of Wolverine series. It could be utilized at the expense of his healing factor.

[@rob9241]

Forgotten mention is that Wolverine’s metal skeleton is radioactive. His healing factor is constantly healing the radioactive. Meaning he should be able to heal to unbelievable speeds were his healing factor not being use to heal radioactive damage. Radioactivity eventually ends meaning Logan should have the strongest healing factor once he stops combating radiation.

[@jefferywise1906]

I like the Wolverine wears his tin foil hat under the skin theory. It could be that it’s just an initial layer of protection and others developed and/or were installed over time.

[@julesmasseffectmusic]

Logan was born with powers, his healing factor was ehy he was a sickly kid, it reacted to everything at max levels for his age and that lead him to be also full of flem in a cold environment. It also tired him out and he was feed at 17th century diet. It took his childhood to train his system and strengthen it. The more you use a power the stronger it gets.

[@scottlambert2949]

One thing most people overlook is that "aging" starts after your body reachs maturity (around 30 years). So, biologically, it's accurate when stories show people keeping their 30ish looks and saying they don't age

Anybody irl can go into a berserker rage, they call it blacking out. It might not include fictional mutant powers but can have just as deadly results and consequences.

Wolverine is a extraordinary character and I'm always amazed at what Abilities he have but that depends on the writers but I do have two questions....Logan and Dead pool have extra healing abilities but first question if they both had a tooth knocked out who's tooth would come back first?and how long would it take to regenerate or what ever it is that it does?

[@OscarASevilla]

Deadpool's healing factor is stronger/better in Canon. Also, wolverine's healing factor is always limited by two things, the adamantium poisoning that his body is always working against 24/7, and his state of mind. The more he leans into his animosity and detaches from his humanity, the stronger his healing factor gets.

I believe that the "slow aging" isn't actually a "power" persay, it's just his healing ability keeping his body as close to it's prime as possible. Hence him aging normally as a child but sticking around late 20s in appearance once there (appears older in movies because Hugh does actually age).

Professor x did give him level 9 resistances.. atleast in the old main line comics.. also Logan is literally emotionally damaged and when pushed to his limits he goes nuts on whatever is in front of him and he has the " feral component" that helps with his battles. Logan also has phantom pain syndrome, some of his injury were so severe he can feel the same as a strong memory years later. Hes also part of a subtype of mutant Lupine/lupus (wolf ) thus his superior senses and low light vision. His mutant genes actually come frome Romulus , like a distant relative.

I think if he develops a newer power it be from all of his lesser abilities that seems little to do with much other than story telling. If you combine that lie detector senses with other higher sense of the smell, touch, hearing, sight, and sound. Training him self i think he should be developing a forsight of combat more so on the lines of beyond what physic abilities could do. Sure someone could read a combatant plans. However going beyond that with all senses in a higher state of alertness. One could foresee many provable factors and possibilities. I mean a century or so of combat experience then many years of fighting mutants. It be natural instincts for him to go past all others in hand to hand and tactic.
