sorry........im not into x-men
was never into x-men even as a kid i thought they were stupid
no pies, that was your reflection :tongue:
somone better tell me betsy comes back :D
They're still making those comics? =o Wow.
I hope they didn't make Rogue get the claws due to her touching Wolverine. That would have been really stupid, given that they aren't a mutation.
Loony Bob, I am afraid you are mistaken. Wolverine's natural bone claws ARE a mutation, just like his healing factor. The adamantium is the only unnatural part of him, that's why Rogue gains bone claws, not metal.
Yeah, I collect comics. And no, they are not stupid. Not like TV...

I thought they were also adamantium? =o It's kinda weird for someone to have a mechanical mutation. Then again, I suppose there were guys made out of metal, too. Man, it's been ages since I read the comics and collected the cards. Good times.
They are laced with adamantium.
I've been reading the Ultimate X-men series. Yeesh, that reminds me, I haven't picked up my subscription issues from the comic shop for over a month! :aimsurp:
I was reading Xtreme X-men untile a couple months ago when it became all dumb and boring. Last I read, Rogue and Gambit had both lost their powers (maybe they got them back though... I dunno), and uhh... nothing else really important. The X-men continuity is all messed up anyway.
That's what happens when you try to keep a story going for four decades... there's only so much 'outlandishness' the writers can come up with before they start to run out of, or worse recycle, ideas.
Fortunately, now we have the X-Men movies to showcase all the good and original ideas, without the convolution and murky continuity that comes from an on-going comic series...
Actually, I've never read an X-Men comic, although I did plenty of research into them (inspired by the films) and I once read a cross-over novel combining the X-Men with another fictional cast.
The issues from the late 80s-early 90s were best.
actually Big D, the movies are inferior compared to almost all of claremounts issues of teh x-men, best stuff, check out when he worked with Lee and the dark pheonix saga.
it's only recently within teh last couple of years did the x-men continuity really fall apart mainly instigated BY the movies...as marvel sold tier soles to cash in. unlike DC who simply delt with continuity problems with CRISIS on infinite earths and zero hour. theres no comparison that DC is better at teh moment.
Wolverine whos history dates back to long long ago was born with bone claws and a healing factor. eventually teh canadians were making their own super soildger projects and trapped logan...infusing his skeleton with adamantium and sending him off the deep end....eraseing his past history. at somepoint rogue must have touched him since she now has bone claws
does anyone know how old wolverine is? because i've seen issues of him in world war 2
i belive he predates teh american depresstion.....if i remeber right his origin stems from the "little house on the priari" period and before that. Marvel did a Origin story...i didnt read it, but then they will reinvent that any time they want. during WW2 he served in teh canadian secret service
Yeah, Matt's right. Wolverine actually had bone claws, they got covered in Adamantium. I stoped collecting X-Men comics ages ago.Quote:
