Wolverine (birth name: James Howlett; alias: Logan and Weapon X) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, mostly in association with the X-Men. He is a mutant with animal-keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities, a powerful regenerative ability known as a healing factor, and three retractable claws in each hand. Wolverine has been depicted as a member of the X-Men, X-Force, Alpha Flight, the Fantastic Four, and the Avengers.
The character first appeared in the last panel of The Incredible Hulk # 180 before having a larger role in # 181 (cover-dated November 1974). He was created by Marvel editor-in-chief Roy Thomas, writer Len Wein, and Marvel art director John Romita Sr. Romita designed the character's costume, but the character was first drawn for publication by Herb Trimpe. Wolverine then joined a revamped version of the superhero team the X-Men, where eventually writer Chris Claremont, artist Dave Cockrum, and artist-writer John Byrne would play significant roles in the character's development. Artist Frank Miller collaborated with Claremont and helped revise the character with a four-part eponymous limited series from September to December 1982, which debuted Wolverine's catchphrase, "I'm the best there is at what I do, but what I do best isn't very nice."
Wolverine is typical of the many tough antiheroes that emerged in American popular culture after the Vietnam War. His willingness to use deadly force and his brooding loner nature became standard characteristics for comic book antiheroes by the end of the 1980s. As a result, the character became a fan favorite of the increasingly popular X-Men franchise,[4]: 263, 265  and has been featured in his own solo Wolverine comic book series since 1988.
He has appeared in most X-Men adaptations, including animated television series, video games and film. In live action, Hugh Jackman portrayed the character across ten installments of the X-Men film series produced by 20th Century Fox between 2000 and 2018, and will reprise the role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film Deadpool 3 (2024). Troye Sivan portrayed a young version of Logan in the 2009 film X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The character has often been ranked as one of the most popular characters of the X-Men, as well as one of Marvel's most popular superheroes.
James "Jimmy" Howlett, also known as Logan or by his codename, The Wolverine, (named after the mammal/mustelid) is a fictional character originating as the primary protagonist of 20th Century Fox's X-Men film series, and appearing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) media franchise produced by Marvel Studios. He is portrayed by Hugh Jackman and based on the Marvel Comics character Wolverine, created by Roy Thomas, Len Wein and John Romita Sr.
Logan has been the central figure of the film series, having appeared in nine films since his introduction in X-Men (2000). The character and Jackman's performance have been credited with helping to cement the series as a multi-billion-dollar franchise, with Logan's appearance often being considered the face of the X-Men.
For his portrayal of Logan, Jackman held the Guinness World Record of the "longest career as a live-action Marvel character," alongside Patrick Stewart, until this was later surpassed by Tobey Maguire and Willem Dafoe who reprised their roles of Peter Parker / Spider-Man and Norman Osborn / Green Goblin from Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy in the MCU film Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2021, though Stewart alone would retake the title later in 2022 following his appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Jackman is set to return to reprise the role in Deadpool 3 (2024), produced by Marvel Studios and set in the MCU, surpassing Stewart yet again.
Many actors were considered for playing the part of Wolverine in a film adaptation of X-Men. Viggo Mortensen was offered the role but turned it down as it conflicted with another role he was scheduled for. At one point in the 1990s, Glenn Danzig was approached for the role due to a slight resemblance, however, Danzig declined as the shooting would interfere with his band's nine-month tour. Bryan Singer spoke to a number of actors, including Russell Crowe, Keanu Reeves and Edward Norton, for the role. Fox ruled out Mel Gibson as being too expensive. Though Dougray Scott was cast but was forced to drop out due scheduling conflicts with Mission: Impossible 2 and was injured in a motorbike accident, the role went to Hugh Jackman. Despite what was thought to be a highly controversial move due to his much taller stature than Wolverine's comic depictions by a nearly full foot of height, Jackman's actual performance was well received; Wolverine's original depiction is said to be 5 feet 3 inches (160 cm) while Jackman is at 6 feet 3 inches (191 cm) and thus stands 30 cm taller.

I grew up during both periods of marvels best heroes. Hugh has been playing Wolverine a couple years longer than I’ve been alive. Wolverine was part of my introduction into superheroes, and I wouldn’t change it for the world. I hope Wolverine gets much more attention in the future and I hope I’m around to witness it.

[@theheadlessglen]

Since everyone else seems to be bringing this up, Raimi Spider-Man vs Fox Wolverine, battle of the classic and beloved versions of some of Marvel’s most iconic characters would be goated. Hell if you wanna make a story out of it, you could do a Web of Shadows-esque scenario with Toby getting the black suit.

[@MatthewVasquez-mt2se]

This is way I want Toby to be in the fox universe

[@kingzrjaygaming8536]

1st it's not due to the adimantium poisoning that he lost his healing factor. It coated his bones it was stated in Logan what was killing him was the food that suppressed the X gene. And wolverines healing factor he could regenerate from a single drop of blood. So yes he should get a big upgrade better healing and the hot claws

[@Peved]

7:42 I'm convinced that some part of Jean was in control at this moment and holding back, otherwise Logan would and should have been atomized, adamantium skeleton included

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

That’s not what was happening. The novel just asserts that Adamantium’s binding is so strong that Jean couldn’t break it down immediately, unlike everything else. Over time she could eventually, but the whole point of the final act was that Logan is the only person that could kill her because of how much he can survive.

[@Peved]

@@CRISIS_COMICSI stand by what I said lol that is MY interpretation of what happened

[@uncle_pepe14]

@@CRISIS_COMICSdoesn’t the novelization also state that the outrush of Jean’s power was amplifying Wolverine’s power (presumably his healing factor) which is their explanation for how Cyclops was killed as well? While Adamantium was anchoring him and keeping him from being immediately unmade I don’t think his base healing factor would scale the same way

[@impoverlord3049]

I love X-MEN. My favorite Marvel IP. I hope mutants will be given more attention. From the last really cool one, I can only remember House of X 2019

I know this would sound weird but... could the Net flix heroes beat Loki in Avengers 1? I would guess not but I could be mistaken 🤔

[@jprice6419]

Wolverine is weak to duck tape, but who isn't. Just keep his teeth, toenails and Claws away from the tape. That being said he is hard to beat using bullets, heat, cold or punches from the Thing level power houses.

[@CptAhab-cg6ku]

Is this building up to a wolverine vs Raiden matchup? 👀 noticed the MGR music in the background and I think its a pretty cool idea. Death battle did it a while back but itd be cool to hear what someone like yourself would have to say on it

Is that statement at 3:23 talking about Wolverine or Jean? Also if it is talking about Wolverine i think its saying that he is second to Xavier as a parental figure, not in terms of power.

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

He's called the most powerful among them AS WELL as the second highest parental figure. Sabertooth is also called the strongest mutant of all - cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/933863516857860146/933864495049236540/unknown.png

I think it’d be cool to see your take on ranking various film/tv superhero teams. Like from the Avengers to the X-Men, to the Justice League either their animated or live action versions, Guardians of the Globe from Invincible- you could even throw in some fun/joke picks like the Heroes Association from One Punch Man (And before anyone feels the need to comment about “oh such and such would CLEARLY be the worst/best. Don’t. We already know how powerful OPM is. Please just try and have a little fun)

[@theoneaboveall3884]

Hey Crisis, some concept art from NHW has been released publicly, and some shows that Norman would have used parts of Tony Stark's armor in his suit (it looked like Mark VI), but the idea was clearly not used. Do you think if it had been used, it might have amped Tom's spidey compared to other characters as he would have faced a more powerful Green Goblin?

[@shararrahman154]

Tobey Maguire Spider-Man vs Fox Wolverine, great battle

[@kingdon7795]

They probably know each other since Tobey Maguire's spiderman does appear in the x2 wolverines revenge game.

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

@@kingdon7795that game isn’t canon to the X-Men movies, it’s not even based on the films. It’s like Arkham Asylum where it’s a spin off of the comic continuity, also the Spider-Man cameo was a deleted scene; so it’s not even canon to the game at all.

[@debater452]

You can make the argument that Jean was holding back the Pheonix's full power so that Logan could kill her. There is no concrete evidence for that, but it's an interpatation

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

The novel just says that she couldn’t do it immediately like she could with everything else, she’d need time to break it down.

8:15 You're honestly overestimating it, if Jean had really tried to disintegrate Wolverine with all her power, don't you think only the adamantium skeleton would have been left in the end? And speaking of which, according to you, adamantium can withstand multiversal level attacks, so superheated adamantium has multiversal level attack power? 7:59 Are you seriously saying that Wolverine can absolutely withstand all of Ultron's attacks with the infinity stones? I'm sorry, but it's like you're saying that Spiderman is physically on the level of Hulk or Thor just by being able to stop Cull Obsidian's blows (Who was able to destroy the hulkbuster armor)

[@narrogers1571]

Not strong at all. He actually gets his a$$ kicked most of the time. I hate when he cries out in pain as he's getting beat up by Lady Death strike and Mystique in the first two movies. The sad thing is that I absolutely love Hugh Jackman as an actor, but he never should have been cast as Wolverine. For starters, he's way too tall (6'1) and skinny. He got jacked in the later films, but again, just too tall. Also, there is nothing feral about Hugh Jackman. Every time he did those primal screams in the movies, I cringed. I can also make an argument that Hugh was hurt by being encouraged to NOT read the comics. If he truly knew Wolverine as a character, he would NEVER have winced in pain when he put out the cigar on his hand. That was the most un Wolverine thing I've ever seen on film.
