Logan Howlett (Wolverine) II

He becomes Wolverine, one of Canada's first superheroes. On his first mission, he is dispatched to stop the destruction caused by a fight between Hulk and Wendigo. Later, Professor Charles Xavier recruits Wolverine for his new iteration of his mutant superhero team, the X-Men. It is later revealed that Wolverine had been sent to assassinate Xavier, who erased Logan's memories and forced him to join the X-Men. On an advanced mission, the supervillain Magneto removes the adamantium from Wolverine's skeleton, causing his healing factor to wear off and also leading to the discovery that his claws are actually bone. Wolverine, for a time, embarks on a series of adventures during which his healing factor returns. Feral by nature, Wolverine's mutation process eventually led him to degenerate primarily into a more primitive, bestial state. After returning to the X-Men, Cable's son, Genesis, kidnaps Wolverine and attempts to reattach the adamantium to his skeleton. This fails, causing Wolverine's mutation to spiral out of control. He is temporarily transformed into a semi-sentient beast form. Eventually, the villain Apocalypse captures Wolverine, brainwashing him into becoming the Horseman of Death. He successfully reattaches the adamantium to his skeleton. Wolverine overcomes Apocalypse's programming and rejoins the X-Men.

Wolverine, also formerly known as James Howlett, was born in northern Alberta, Canada, in the late 1880s. He was supposedly the son of wealthy plantation owners John and Elizabeth Howlett, though he was actually the illegitimate son of Elizabeth and the Howletts' caretaker, Thomas Logan. After Thomas is expelled from the Howlett estate for an attempted abuse perpetrated by his other son, simply called "Dog," he returns to the Howlett mansion and kills John Howlett. In retaliation, young James kills Thomas with bone claws that emerge from the backs of his hands as his mutation manifests. He flees with his childhood companion, Rose, and lives into adulthood in a mining colony in Yukon, adopting the name "Logan." When he accidentally kills Rose with his claws, he escapes the colony and lives in the wilderness among wolves until he is captured and placed in a circle. Saul Creed, brother of Victor Creed, now known as Sabretooth, is drafted into the Canadian military during World War I. Logan spends his time in Madripoor before settling in Japan. During World War II, Logan joins Captain America and pursues a career as a mercenary. He serves with the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion during the Day of War, later with the CIA before being recruited by Team X, a black ops unit. As a member of Team X, Logan receives false memory implants. Eventually freeing himself from their mind control, he joins the Canadian Ministry of Defence. Logan is subsequently kidnapped by the Weapon X program, where he remains captive and experimented on until escaping. It is during his imprisonment by Weapon X that he has adamantium fused to his bones. James Heather Hudson helps him regain his humanity after his escape. Logan begins working as an agent for Canadian intelligence called Department H.

Wolverine was a solitary and gruff individual with a strong sense of personal honor. He also had a wild, animalistic nature and an uncontrollable rage, which he always tried to keep under control. He also felt perfectly at home in the jungle. He is known as one of the most fearless, courageous, and dangerous men in the world, according to Steve Rogers. Wolverine quickly established himself as one of the X-Men, being the most willing to permanently confront his adversaries. He developed a close friendship with his teammates Nightcrawler, whose personality was completely the opposite of Wolverine's, and Colossus, who often performed the "special throw" with him. He was a father figure to Natasha Romanoff, Kitty Pryde, Rogue, X-23, and Jubilee.
