I like how wolverine is better known on the chart for his claws then his regenerative abilities (he only shows up under claws), where as Emma Frost gets listed twice (for Telepathy and Diamond Transformation)

Couldn't he just eat the guards?

Its always bugged me about him. His claws are not his mutant ability. Healing scent and such are. |

His Original Bone Claws are. Though a very minor one compared to the others.

Oh, then you are completely right. Its easy to get confused with all that retcon bullshit going on in Comics.

Hahaha, thanks for the laugh. I needed that today. His Original Bone Claws are. Though a very minor one compared to the others.
That was added later. I think making that distinction is a losing battle. 90% of things in comics are added later by writers. |

Unless at some point during the 90's it was retconned that he wasn't born with bone claws? It's the other way around. In the 90s he was retconned to have bone claws (the issue where Magneto ripped his adamantium out) but before that he didn't have them. |

In the 90s he was retconned to have bone claws (the issue where Magneto ripped his adamantium out) but before that he didn't have them. Yeah, it had somethin to do with the idea that after magneto ripped his skeleton clean out of him, his healing factor decided that when it grew him a new one, it would add the claws in anyway, even though the claws (up to that point) were not part of his original "pre-adamantium graft" skeleton. |

Oh, so he's had bone claws for 20 years, not 30. Forgive me.  My point is that there should be a statute of limitations on how long a retcon is a retcon before people start to get the fuck over the fact that Wovlerine's had these bone claws literally for decades now. |

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

I notice two issues. That PC is going to roast him slowly inside that box, and also I don't see a way for him to power his electronics.

By "shipped" they probably mean "In a rented van or truck" which will probably include stuff like power hookups. Somehow I don't think they're Fed-exing him (mostly because I don't think Fed-ex or anyone else wants the liability). I suspect that regular bathroom breaks will somehow happen. And food. There probably just won't be any 'communication' or at least not any that counts. Then again, I don't get performance art in general. |

When I was first studying theatre, I was open to all kinds of ideas. I thought everything had equal merit. This was at the same time as Ultima 7 came out, and Richard Garriott put an NPC in the game who was part of a performance art group, and demanded the audience throw chicken feathers at him while he bemoaned his own existence. Or something like that. Put in the context of his fantasy D&D world, I realized how fucking stupid almost all that shit is.
