Damn, when does it get so buffed? Reading 80s comics and his healing factor is "can sleep off a knife wound in a couple days" strong, not "regrows muscle in the middle of a fight"
I think you're misremembering. In 1978 the X-Men went to the Savage Land and a dinosaur seriously chomped his arm. He basically shrugged it off saying he "heals real fast"
His healing has been dialed up and down over the decades, but unless it's disabled (and he starts getting heavy metal poisoning), he heals from serious cuts in minutes at the most.
I think the gloves must've helped with the dino chomp, as well as his general macho attitude
I'm at around 1990 nowadays and although he says he is fine, other characters (who well know his powers) keep commenting on how rough a shape he is in and how he seems to be dying from the injuries he takes from nonstop adventuring
To me it seems like his healing factor can do a sprint to close a wound so he can finish a fight, but it can't do the marathon of keeping him alive from constant injuries, unless given time to regenerate itself. And the regrowing flesh thing to me looks like the effort of running a marathon in the span of a sprint
Sure, but they constantly reference how difficult that was, how his healing factor was the only thing that let him survive it, but how it also required all kinds of machines and doohickeys to somehow introduce the adamantium into his skeleton so that it wouldn't be rejected.
But, once they came back he'd heal back to wolverine: mutton chops, wings of hair, a hairy chest, and all the other typically male wolverine characteristics.
Y doesn't contain "dick information" it contains "dick infrastructure schedule information". The infrastructure builds and maintains dickindustry.
The only thing that makes a dick and balls is a hormone signal at a specific stage in a fetus' life. Wether or not a fetus gets that signal dickindustry or pussyindustry will continue as the existing structures dictate. There are plenty of XY pussy-ovary births and XX dick-testes births due to this fact. The people usually never find out, as they lead normal lives.
Though I agree with you that her dick would show back up, that's because her regeneration is magic, not science, and the comic gods said she had a dick and that's that. It would take a big arc for her to get a pussy, old gods or time travel or dimension hopping or something.
Maybe a deal with Loki that gave wolverine a snarky, chaotic neutral pussy with its own agenda? Also, stop misgendering our beautiful wolverine!
isn’t the whole point to not associate plumbing with pronouns?
if we're taking this thought experiment to the logical end we should continue to use existing directed pronouns until told otherwise, or ask for clarification politely
If you ever think you've found a binary in biology you've probably just found a bimodal distribution. And if there's any complexity to it whatsoever it's probably a cluster of them that are interrelated. Biological sex is really fucking complicated and our species has a ton of possible intersex conditions because of it, some of which most people who have will never know.
Yeah, I think trans Wolverine would be even more trapped by biology than other trans persons. She would need some cutting-edge gene-editing treatment to remove/replace the Y across much of the body. As a native CA person, I believe she'll have quite the wait to get that treatment, and I don't think there's a DIY option that could work for her.
Those are different things, though. Hormones would be closer to vitamins, the body uses them if they're present without necessarily causing harm to the body. The body produced hormones, but, chemically, if the hormones are made or introduced, chemically, they're the same. Ethanol is a poison that works by affecting the brain by attaching to GABA receptors, so it is a threat to the body.
That's all science though. Wolverine's healing ability is basically magic. I mean, it regrows his hair to a certain length in a certain style too.
The backstory for his character is that his healing factor not only "heals" him, but basically restores him to the way he previously was whenever there's a change to his body.
But is that blueprint dependent on hormone levels? Maybe wolverine would just rapidly grow a full female reproductive system and boobs on HRT, which then would mean that to revert, masculinizing HRT would be needed.
Wolverine has lost a hand before in Age of Apocalypse and it did not grow back. However he has regrown eyes before along with regenerating after firebombing charred him to a cinder so we can likely assume his cock and balls would also grow back.
Additional discussion question: It can be inferred that Wolverine regenerates blood, and it is known that beer has minimal effect on him due to his enhaced bodily functions related to his regeneration. With this in mind, does Wolverine have a refractory period or can he fuck all night?
The more you ask questions the more the unreality of the situation shows, so I guess it would depend on the writer.
You couldn't normally cleave or smash an adamantium bone, so it would much harder to dismember Wolverine. You'd have to cut ligaments and tendons carefully to avoid the bones, while fighting the regeneration at the same time. But, I think if you figured out some way to separate part of the adamantium skeleton from Wolverine, when the a new part grew to replace the removed part, the new part would contain "normal" bones.
But, I think if you figured out some way to separate part of the adamantium skeleton from Wolverine, when the a new part grew to replace the removed part, the new part would contain "normal" bones.
That’s what happened when Magneto stripped him of adamantium. It fucked Wolverine up bad but he recovered and went back to how he was until Apocalypse put it back in him.
The bones are coated in adamantium if memory serves right so presumably if you cut through his bone it would just regrow normal bone then everything else. Wolverine has had the adamantium ripped out before and while excruciating he did heal back up, he has also been disintegrated down to just his adamantium skeleton at least once before which seems to have effectively killed him but that was also the days of future past storyline so who knows maybe he could've regenerated from his eyes, but also there's a version of wolverine who's down to a stump on one arm but then again Apocalypse was involved so who knows what was going on with that.
You'd have to cut ligaments and tendons carefully to avoid the bones, while fighting the regeneration at the same time.
What about a powerful explosive device? Perhaps delivered with a significant amount of kinetic energy. Like a HEAT round from a 120mm cannon? To that should be able to rip limbs off. Maybe we'd be entering "ship of Theseus" territory here? Or multiple wolverines, each with their respective adamantium parts?
I can only imagine that some part of the brain has to be involved for the regeneration to produce a Wolverine. But, I could imagine at least two Wolverines, one non-verbal, regenerating from different parts of the brain.
Wouldn't the brain regenerate completely? That is if the cranium is split.
The premise for my thought experiment was, that every bone was intact, and they were just separated at the connecting tissue.
Wouldn't the entire body is able to regenerate from a single part, without every tissue type present? I mean not much point in regeneration, if all it takes to disable you is removing both your eyes simultaneously. Actually that would answer the original question on the removal of external sexual organs. I mean, cut off the balls and there are no balls to regenerate from. Remove the penis and there's no cavernous tissue etc.
Wolverine's bones would like to regenerate, but the adamantium is in the way. This prevents regeneration. The implications of this should be obvious. Wolverine's gonna need an adamantium dilator.
The dick thing (there's a reason "he" is angry), also lots of super heros are thwarted trans people. It's why they're always meeting their "girl" versions, life is trying to tell them something.
"This bright lycra outfit makes me feel like I'm flying! But I also have rage issues."
"Oh wow, a girl version of me, I'll have to try extra hard not to have any realizations about who I am".
depends if he still has adamantium skeleton, since adamantium is what slows his healing factor. he would probably regenerate his penis, balls instantly. his healing factor apparently isnt the most advanced. i think deadpool and another mutant has a more powerful one(at least in last stand, he fought a mutant that instantly regenerate his limbs in 1 second, which wolverine cant do. as he cant heal from brain damage apparently.
The movies change it based on what creates tension or is funny in the current situation.
In X-Men the Last Stand he is able to survive disintegration that goes through people around him in about a second by constantly healing the damage back (and his pants repair themselves too I guess). And a similar thing happens when he survives a nuclear bomb in the Wolverine. In Origins: Wolverine he is able to heal back from an adamantium bullet to the head fairly quickly but loses his memories.
Deadpool is supposed to have a stronger healing factor but it still takes something like hours to a day for his hand to finish growing back after it gets cut off in his movie.
I doubt the comics are much better about being consistent with the amount of retcons and changing writers that happen.
oh yea, WOLVERINE had plot armor during last stand, dark phoenix could've easily have disintegrated him, but she was likely still emotionally attached to him, and dint want to kill him, so hey "slowly killed him" while everyone else was thanos'ed, it made sense his adamantium armor was actually hindering his healing, as stated in the comics/97(DOFP). Deadpool likely has a similar handicap, as he has CANCER, and his healing is constantly healing from it, kinda wierd it doesnt heal the cancer, unless its also being healed by his mutant ability too.
