Fun Facts: -Wolverine was not the most popular member of the group in its early stages. In fact it was thought to kill him rather than Thunderbird. -If you try to start reading X-men comics today, you might feel a bit confused: Xavier and Wolverine are dead, X-23 now uses his suit, there is a old version of Wolverine from another universe / timeline, there one young version of the original X-men from another universe / timeline and mutants are in danger of extinction again (happens very often).

Problem was, DC didn't want him because they thought he was too ugly. So the artist gave him to Marvel where they thought that if society won't accept him, then he's perfect for the X-men.

The reason why X-Men #1 is the highest selling comic book in Marvel history is because it came out at a time when everyone thought they were going to be a comic book collector and get rich.

Also, the comic book of high value that is considered Wolverines first appearance is Incredible Hulk 181. He does appear in the final panel of Incredible Hulk 180, but that is not the one collectors are looking for when trying to find "Wolverines first appearance".
