wanna know what's funny? it turns out titanium is rejected by the human body, so Wolverine couldn't have had titanium plating on his bones...

It wasn't titanium that was bonded to his skeleton..it was ADAMANTIUM.

Besides, Wolverine is a FICTIONAL CHARACTER and NOT a REAL PERSON. Therefore, he could technically do ANYTHING, including changing gender for no real reason at all and randomly growing fluorescent pink hair with fluorescent yellow and green streaks in his hair..if that's what the folks at Marvel Comics think would make comics sell... neutral

True, but it wouldn't make sense. It would have to symbolize something in society. *Knows how comic makers think* xd

True..

There was one thing that I've never really understood about Wolverine, though. When his claws extend, it's supposed to paralyze his wrist. Well, the bone would become rigid as the metal claws that are normally stored in the forearm would come straight down the forearm, crossing through the wrist and out of these little silvery thingies on the back of his hand(Yes, I'm referring to the Old-School Wolvie from the comics..not the movie one..). So, considering as these massively long blades would be crossing through the wrist as seen here, wouldn't it be impossible to move/bend the wrist or to even really move the fingers at all for that matter?..Yet, on the other hand..

We see pictures like this which shows us that for whatever reason he can still use his hands. My only question is..How? Wouldn't those claws force your hand to clench a fist?

Ah well..Whatever the case, we love ya Wolvie. =)

Thank you for bringing that out. 3nodding
Maybe the comic makers forgot all the logic they used. dramallama
It's very possible.

Maybe. But then again, comics are only really supposed to be semi-realistic anyway. I'm still trying to figure out how Cyclops' super special rose quartz tinted glasses of doom help keep the lazer beams from going on through, and why those eye lazers haven't pierced his eyelids yet.

On a random note, though, wouldn't that power suck so bad to have until you find a way to control it? Just imagine waking up one morning and to open your eyes to state at the ceiling when you suddenly fire a red laserbeam at the ceiling with your eyes and a chunk of ceiling falls on your or something?

But yeah..Long story short; overanalyzing comic book logic leads to headaches. sweatdrop

Tis okay.

Yeah, it would be terrible.

rofl Nice.

Though, while on the topic of X-Men..It's been mentionned a few times that Wolverine had lived in/been to Alberta. It even showed that in the movie when he met up with Rogue. My only question is..WHERE in Alberta? I actually live in the aforementionned province, and would love to go for a long car drive to some little nowhere town just to have the ability to say "Oh yeah, I was here! Which is where Wolverine was in *insert comic name and issue number that I probably dug off the internet here*" Because I'm a geek like that.

It was funny though, in the theatre when it said "A town in Alberta" a few people in the theatre laughed and a few kinda made a gasp of surprise. I giggled and was rather entertained. I was all like "Maybe that place is around here somewhere!" xd

EDIT: Isn't it funny how we went from talking about putting a psi-ball into a kid to talking about X-Men? xd

-Yes, it is rather interesting, but they both kind of tie in together-

That would be pretty awesome. I would love to go to some part of New York and then go back home and tell all my friends, "yeah, I went to the newspaper place where Spiderman worked."

Would that be sweet or what?

That would be so awesome. I'd just want to buy an issue of the Daily Bugle. That would be an amusing find in itself.

Actually, I went to a restaurant once, and they had these fake Daily Bugle front page clippings hung in frames on the walls. They had articles like "Spiderman Strikes Again!". It was very awesomeable. 3nodding I was all like "Nice!".

Did you get one?

You could have gotten one and then posted it on your front door. Then, a very not-so-bright criminal who was about to break into your home would look at the newspaper and think, 'Spiderman, eh?' Which would give you enough time to call the police. wahmbulance

xd That's brilliant!

But no, the only time that I'd ever seen them was in that restaurant, and I highly doubt that the restaurant owner would have sold them to me..or appreciated me taking them off the wall, tucking them under my arm and quickly running for the door. Not to mention the Karma fee that I'd have to pay for that afterwards.

But, this reminds me of something..There was a dude in a Spiderman outfit at the local mall a couple of years ago. Kids could get their picture taken with him. xd

That's pretty cute. You could have gotten your picture taken and used that for the doorway thing as well. Maybe you can get one of your friends to. 3nodding
