I’m sure you realize this…well actually I guess you don’t. The fact that you said that means you obviously don’t pay much attention to the story of Wolverine. I mean, you got the healing factor right. However, the claws are also part of his power. The claws were originally bone up until the point that Weapon X got a hold of him and coated his skeleton in Adamentium, turning them into razor sharp blades and not just pointy claws made from his own bone.

*Maybe some spoilers be careful when reading.

If you take a look at Wolverine origin (Jenkins, Quesada, Jemas, Kubert .. who else am I forgetting?) it is shown that he has some sort of Animal Oriented powers, sense of smell, hearing etc… plus the claws if you are an animal you gotta have claws. That was before Weapon X an all that, when he was living with rose in the mining field and his powers just… appeared.. You can say that from the agility and endurance, as well as stamina yet he has those developed into a level beyond any “normal” human could train those senses that could be connected to his healing factor, meaning he doesn’t get tired that easy because of it, therefore train harder and longer… I Believe that Deadpool is a great example of this, he is no mutant, he was a Merc one hell of a Merc we must add, he was what I see as “powerless yet not normal humans in the comic world” Batman would be a great example of this, once he got mutated because of Weapon X then he was able to not only train beyond this levels but to complement what he already had with his accelerated healing factor which is his only “real” power the rest comes with this one..

Now as for Deadpool movie version… I must say this:
1. Ryan Reynolds as Wade …. perfect and the shooting part… just WOW.. plus we must be reminded that back then he didn’t had any powers.. so that was his “normal” being.
2. Swords in the hand… I kinda can live with that, only if you think of those as “removed” later on the story, because well he was an experiment after all.
3.The name deadpool and him being weapon XI…….. just kill the guy who though of that.
4. Teleportation, yeah I can take that, this even though is not a Deadpool power, is a constant ability in the comic, cable and deadpool, that device weasel did, and now what he stole from osborn.
5.Laser eyes……. just.. don’t.. don’t ever ever ever do that again plus how come he has those eyes and cyclops still have his eyes, didn’t they took out cyclops eyes and put them into him… the only semi good thing was when they burn those eyes.. now if they don’t put the freaking mask on his stand alone movie I am going to L.A and shoot people..

Does Wolverine sneeze? If he has healing powers, he wouldn’t get sick and I imagine he doesn’t get allergies. Would pepper make him sneeze? Find a comic with him sneezing and I’ll stop wondering.

Following the completely geeky conversation, I always though his enhanced senses was something that he trained to have. Kind of like a blind man has enhanced hearing and sense of smell. Also the agility and endurance: not part of his powers but something he trained to have.

Part of my knowledge of the character comes from a time when his power didn’t include giant needles coming out of his hands, so I guess I could be wrong or outdated…

Let’s hope he never eats too many beans…

That would be truly unfortunate!

Great comic, and deadpool is awesome. i hope if they do a deadpool movie that it would be better quality of deadpool, plus its his jokes that makes him great.
