Various stories depict Wolverine's experiences in various historical and fictional wars such as World War Ithe Spanish Civil WarWorld War IIthe Vietnam Warand various Cold War conflictsas well as attempts to train him or brainwash him into a weapon to be controlled by larger institutions or entities. Logan adheres to a firm code of personal honor and moralityand he generally only responds in a violent or deadly manner to enemies attacking him with deadly force.
He often tries to restrict killing to a "last resort," though he will often respond to deadly force with deadly force. Wolverine is frequently depicted as a gruff loneroften taking leave from the X-Men to deal with personal issues or problems. He is often irreverent and rebellious towards authority figures, though he is a reliable ally and capable leader, and has occasionally displayed a wry, sarcastic sense of humor.
Andrew Deman points out that while Wolverine is commonly associated with hypermasculinityat least in Claremont's characterization he also "consistently demonstrates an emotional intelligence and sense of empathy," to an extraordinary degree. Psychologist Suzana E. Flores writes that Wolverine demonstrates clinical psychological symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorderbipolar disorderantisocial personality disorderdissociative disorderand even sociopathybut does so in a way that can be understood and empathized.
Logan has an extremely reactive temper, but he's also a kind person. The violent mood swings are a symptom of trauma, not a reflection of his character. Yarbrough also observes Wolverine's habitual smoking and drinking, as coping mechanisms for this experience of trauma. Wolverine is the best known Canadian superhero. In civilian clothes, he usually dresses in Western wear characteristic of Saskatchewan and Alberta one of the early Wolverine artists, John Byrnewas raised in the latter of these provinces.
One of Wolverine's nicknames is "Ol' Canucklehead ," a variation on a slang wolverine marvel death character for Canadians. Wolverine is a mutant with a number of both natural and artificial improvements to his physiology. Wolverine's primary mutant power is an accelerated healing process, typically referred to as his mutant healing factorthat regenerates damaged or destroyed tissues of his body far beyond that of normal humans.
In addition to accelerated healing of physical traumas, Wolverine's healing factor makes him extraordinarily resistant to diseases, drugs and toxins. However, he can still suffer the immediate effects of such substances in massive quantities; he has been seen to become intoxicated after ingesting significant amounts of alcohol, [ ] and has been incapacitated on several occasions with large amounts of powerful drugs and poisons; [ ] S.
His healing factor allowed him to survive the experimental surgical binding of the virtually indestructible metal adamantium to his bones and claws, to which he was subjected under the Weapon X program in later comics called the Weapon Plus program. While the adamantium in his body prevents or reduces many injuries, such as broken bones and decapitation, his healing factor must also work constantly to prevent metal poisoning from killing him.
When his healing powers were rendered inactive, Beast synthesized a drug to counteract the adamantium poisoning. Wolverine's healing factor also dramatically affects his aging process, allowing him to live far beyond the normal lifespan of normal humans. Despite being born in the late 19th century, [ ] he has the appearance, conditioning, health and vitality of a man in his physical prime.
While seemingly ageless, it is unknown exactly how greatly his healing factor extends his life expectancy. Although Wolverine's body heals, the healing factor does not suppress the pain he endures while injured. Depictions of the speed and extent of injury to which Wolverine can heal vary due to a broad degree of artistic license employed by various comic book writers.
Originally, this was portrayed as accelerated healing of minor wounds, [ ] though Chris Claremonthead writer of the X-Men comics from the mids to the early s increased Wolverine's healing factor substantially, though not nearly as much as later writers would. During the s, Wolverine's mutant healing factor is depicted as being able to heal massive levels of trauma, though his recovery time could extend to days, weeks or months before fully healing; often depending upon the severity of the injuries, their extent and the frequency with which they are inflicted.
In the series, Wolverine is referred to as an "adaptive self-healer" after undergoing numerous traumatic injuries to test the efficiency of his healing factor. Wolverine has endured so much trauma, and so frequently, that his healing factor has adapted, becoming faster and more efficient to cope with increasing levels of trauma. It is possible to suppress the efficiency of Wolverine's healing powers; for example, if an object composed of adamantium is inserted and remains lodged within his body, his healing powers are slowed dramatically.
It has been suggested that Wolverine can be killed by drowning. Due to a combination of Wolverine's healing factor and high-level psionic shields implanted by Professor Xavier, Wolverine's mind is highly resistant to telepathic assault and probing. It acts as a type of natural defense, even against a psychic as powerful as Emma Frost.
While it is not clear whether this is an actual canon event or simply a hallucination, Wolverine vol. Wolverine's mutation also consists of animal-like adaptations of his body, including superhuman senses, such as an increased sense of smell and hearing; pronounced, sharp, fang-like canines; and three retractable claws housed within each forearm.
While originally depicted as bionic implants created by the Weapon X program, [ ] the claws are later revealed to be a natural part of his body. Wolverine's hands do not have openings for the claws to move through: they cut through his flesh every time he extrudes them, with occasional references implying that he feels a brief moment of slight pain in his hands when he unsheathes them.
Wolverine's senses of sight, smell, and hearing are all superhumanly acute. He can see with perfect clarity at greater distances than an ordinary human, even in near-total darkness. His hearing is enhanced in a similar manner, allowing him to hear sounds ordinary humans cannot and also hear to greater distances. A perfect example is him being able to hear the heartbeats of hostile living things before conflict begins.
Wolverine is able to use his sense of smell to easily remember and track targets by scent, even if the scent has been eroded somewhat over time by natural factors. This sense also allows him to identify shapeshifting mutants despite other forms they may take. For instance, in many cases he has been depicted as smelling the gun oil, gun powdersmokeless powderor specific metal scent emanating from a concealed or distant gun or other weapon prior to an attack, as well as hearing the increased heart rate and smelling the increased perspiration of an individual preparing to attack.
On one occasion, he is made aware of several yakuza members waiting for him outside of a bar by picking up the scent of their gun oil, the smell of their tattoo ink, and the smell of the daikon they ate before arriving. On more than one occasion, Wolverine's entire skeleton, including his claws, has been molecularly infused with adamantium. Due to their coating, his claws can cut almost any known solid material, including most metals, wood, and some varieties of stone.
The only known exceptions are adamantium itself and Captain America 's shieldwhich is made out of a proto-adamantium- vibranium alloy. Wolverine's ability to slice completely through a substance depends upon both the amount of force he can exert and the thickness of the substance. His claws can also be used to block attacks or projectiles, as well as dig into surfaces allowing Wolverine to climb structures.
Wolverine's healing factor also affects a number of his physical attributes by increasing them to superhuman levels. His stamina is sufficiently heightened to the point that he can exert himself for numerous hours, even after exposure to powerful tranquilizers. During and after the Return of Wolverinehe showcased a mysterious new ability where the adamantium in his claws can heat up to incredibly high, yet undisclosed, level of temperatures.
During Wolverine's time in Japan and other countries, he became proficient in many forms of martial artswith experience in many different fighting styles. He is proficient with most weaponry, including firearms, though he is partial to bladed weapons. He has demonstrated sufficient skills to defeat expert martial artist Shang-Chi [ ] and Captain America [ ] in single combat.
He also has a wide knowledge of the body and pressure points. In contrast to his brutish nature, Wolverine is extremely knowledgeable. Due in part to his longer lifespan, he has traveled around the world and amassed extensive knowledge of foreign languages and cultures, being fluent or near fluent in JapaneseRussianSpanishFrenchBlackfootand Germanamong other languages.
Wolverine was originally introduced as an antagonist of the Hulk. In particular, he has a complex ambivalent relationship with Cyclopsfor whom he was initially a rival for the affections of Jean Grey. He has been a mentor and father figure to several younger women, especially JubileeKitty Pryde and X His first love was Rose O'Hara, a close friend who did not reciprocate his affection.
She died accidentally at his hands when she intervened in Wolverine's adolescent fight with an adversary, Dog. He also married Viper as part of a debt, [ ] then later divorced her. He describes Elektra in particular as a "kindred spirit. He has two children: His daughter, Xand his son, Daken. Wolverine was groundbreaking among comic book superheroes in demonstrating the traits of an antihero.
As Suzana Flores describes it, an antihero is "often psychologically damaged, simultaneously depicted as superior due to his superhuman abilities and inferior due to his impetuousness, irrationality, or lack of thoughtful evaluation. Flores has identified that Wolverine's extraordinary popularity partly stems from his illustration of various mental health challenges, particularly recovery from major trauma or psychological trauma.
She argues that his first formative trauma was his poor relationship with his mother, who was unable to properly attach to him because she lost her first son. He exemplifies values and aspirations of resilience for his audience. However, Flores says that she also found the character therapeutic in her own recovery from rape. While Wolverine is straight within the Earth or main continuity of the comics, he has been depicted as being of differing sexual orientations in alternate timelines.
Main continuity Wolverine's relationship with Cyclops had often been acknowledged as homoerotic in both the comics, [ ] and in media adaptations. Outside of his relationship with Cyclops, Screen Rant ' s Alex Schlesinger has argued that taking into account their history in comics, there is "some precedent set for Wolverine and Nightcrawler to be in an intimate relationship together".
InComicsAlliance assembled a panel consisting of various LGBT cartoonists, writers, editors, and journalists, to vote on which comics and characters had the biggest impact on them. As a group, the X-Men came in 13th place, with science fiction author and Doom Patrol writer Rachel Pollack stating that "the X-Men's themes are indelibly queer".
Writing for Bleeding Coolcomics writer and columnist Rich Johnston described Wolverine as a "gay icon amongst many", [ ] arguing that this was the case before Hugh Jackman first played the character in the live-action film series. Most significantly, Weapon X is missing a hand, cut off by Cyclops who in turn is missing an eye thanks to Weapon X.

Consistent with the main characterization, this version is also shown to be a loner, his back story presenting him as an unwilling recruit to the X-Men. Later he offered himself to the Celestials to prevent the planet's judgment and was further augmented by the Celestial technology, yet while he had ascended in form and power, his mind had become so twisted to the point of assembling a deadly group of genetically modified warriors known as the Black Legion and sent them to kill Charles Lehnsherr, the infant son of Magneto and Rogue.
He also captured his teammate Storm and renamed her as Orordius after using the Celestial technology on her, enslaving and transforming her into a blind seer made of living stone. He also intended to do the same to Jean Grey, by turning her into the Horseman of Death, but his efforts were prevented by the Uncanny X-Force from the Main Reality, who had traveled to the Age of Apocalypse seeking a celestial life seed.
In the Age of X reality, Wolverine's powers have been virtually lost after he was forced to ingest a mutant 'cure' to dispose of it; although his healing factor can stop the cure totally affecting him, it is now so focused on fighting the cure and the adamantium poisoning of his metal skeleton that he cannot fight anymore, as any additional strain placed on his system could kill him.

Rick was later killed when his attempt to defend himself from the Maestro with Captain America's shield caused him to be thrown out of his wheelchair and impaled on the skeleton's claws, the Maestro grimly commenting on the amusing irony of Rick being killed by one relic while defending himself with another.
