Wolverine

BACKGROUND: Wolverine. Easily one of the most popular comic book characters in the last twenty years. Maybe it's the fact that he's only five-foot-three, and he's kicking as for the little guy. Is it his affection for cigars? Or is it his snappy dialogue? For example, he's the only guy who can call anyone bub, and live to tell the tale.

Logan belongs to the X-Men, and being part of that group earns you the right to fight the meanest, toughest villains in the universe. Wolverine's locked claws with the scrappy Sabretooth, the invincible Juggernaut, gone toe-to-toe with the Hulk, and for the love of God, he's even had his admantium skeleton torn out of his body courtesy of Magneto. That's a respectable resume for a hero.

SMUDGE SAYS: Logan has no fear and jumps into any situation hoping to eviscerate his opposition. Wolverine has super fast healing factor. Despite this fact though, Wolverine feels every ounce of the pain. An admirable trait to this power is that he willingly takes the punishment in hope of dealing it back to you twice as bad. If you shoot him in the face, he feels it. Everytime he pops his claws, he feels it. That means you've pissed him off before you've even traded one punch.

The first two X-Men movies were pretty awesome, but let's face it. I've crapped better than the third one. Luckily, with the failure of the third film, it launched Wolverine to get his own Feature Film. Wolverine: Origins.

I've gotta say, I was never a huge Wolverine fan, but lately, he's been growing on me. Growing on me just like his awesome pork chop sideburns.
