New Mutant

so I read the all new Wolverine saga released in September and it got me thinking that I want to start reading more x-men and i have a couple questions 1. I see he's in both Wolverine and Uncanny X-Men now does the solo series take place in the Uncanny time line or is it just better to accept them as different series and read them individually. 2. In this book it says Wolverine' Healing Factor was dialed back due to breaking a deal with the angle of death, was it ever restored to being well amazing again? xD |

His healing factor was supposedly dialed back, but to tell you the truth we haven't seen any real evidence of that yet (unless you want to count the part of him turning into a vampire and his healing factor not preventing that). Of course, he hasn't had a nuke dropped on him for a while, so who knows? I can tell you one thing--it definitely hasn't slowed him down. Wolverine is in his own solo series and Uncanny, along with the new X-Men title (that's doing the vampire thing right now). He hasn't been around much in Uncanny, but he has a pretty central role in the Vamp Storyline. Technically all of these stories are supposed to take place at the same time . . . but obviously that's impossible (but this isn't a new thing with Wolverine). So try to imagine the stories independent yet loosely connected at the same time. Like in Uncanny the X-Men are still on the island in San Francisco bay, and Hell-verine just visited there himself in his solo series. So they're technically in the same continuity . . . just don't try to figure out how and when they fit together. So approach them as independent, but recognize that some of the bigger things that are happening in the X-Men's world may loosely affect Wolverine's solo adventures. |

yup, it's stated there that it's dialed back but it really hasn't taken effect in any of the stories following that..maybe the closest thing to seeing a dialed down healing factor was during the adamantium men story line..wherein wolverine collapsed after fighting one of them.. i try not to worry about the continuity..just wait for the next wolverine saga to come out and you'll see how all those events are arranged. haha. |

yeah that's essentially how I'm approaching this I'm just taking Wolverine and Wolverine:Origins as him trying to fix his past and some solo adventures here and there and I'm also using this topic http://forums.wolverinefiles.com/topic/1652531/1/  And yea I'm trying to get into Wolverine because despite him being my favorite comic book character I haven't read nearly enough xD Edited by Coco292, Nov 11 2010, 09:37 PM.

Essentially the big complaint was Wolverine coming back from a burnt out skeleton. We saw In the Days of Future Past that he couldn't do it and suddenly he could. People complained and the whole Death thing came of it to explain the difference essentially. Considering he does it again as a far future version of himself in Fantasic Force, doesn't seem to matter much. As to what Wolverine is involved in. Here's sort of the guideline. Wolverine solo(s) are in canon but tend to be outside of the main stories. Occasionally crossing over but for the most part don't expect to see major story lines from the team books in the solos and vice versa. This includes appearances in the rest of the line (X-23, Daken and the new series next month). He will appear in any and all team books as needed and when they want the extra sales. Expect him to be in X-Men, Uncanny regularly and Legacy in the bigger events. These stories are all part of the bigger X-Men tapestry that he is part of. Uncanny X-Force is his new book which is canon but probably following the solo rules with it not really intersecting with the rest of the titles much. The same goes for any Astonishing X-Men stories. They are meant to be in a compressed time frame in and amongst the other stories. Avengers and New Avengers (mostly New now that the first arc is over) and over Avenger stories are their own thing and won't interact with the X-Men pretty much ever. But as a member in good standing of those teams, he will appear in generally one title a month and maybe some limited or special stories like the Children's Crusade going on now.

wasn't the accelerated healing factor pretty much his secondary mutation? anyway, other than him growing back from nothing but his adamantium skeleteon..the civil war story was actually very good.. |

In the sense that he wasn't born with it (unlike the claws), yeah. |

I like the civil war story but the artist bothers me. He likes to draw wide open, gaping mouths, often. There was one splash page with like 10 figures on it and almost every one of them was like that. Silly I suppose but it really distracted me. |
