WOLVERINE | Before They Were Famous

Due to Wolverine's abilit to heal it has actually slowed down the aging process that this dude has been around a long long time. He's well over a 100 and has lived many a different life, fighting in many a war. He fought in World War 1, World War 2 where he met Captain America, he also fought in the Vietnam War and it is believed that he trained as a Samurai in Japan. It wasn't untill 1974 that Wolverine made it into the pages of a Marvel comic and initially he was a villain fighting against the incredible Hulk. Marvel knew they had a massive Canadian fan base and they wanted to create a hero for their neighbours to the North but early ideas had him being an evoled humanoid from that of an actual Wolverine – like animal. As a Canadian I'm proud, I'll take Logan over Steve Rogers 8 days a week. Oh ya and if you think Hugh Jackman is the perfect Wolverine he's way too tall for the character and initially there were plans to have the late Bob Hoskins to take on the role
