    Wolverine

    Character » Wolverine appears in 16078 issues.

    A long-lived mutant with the rage of a beast and the soul of a Samurai, James "Logan" Howlett's once mysterious past is filled with blood, war, and betrayal. Possessing an accelerated healing factor, keenly enhanced senses, and bone claws in each hand (along with his skeleton) that are coated in adamantium; Wolverine is, without question, the ultimate weapon.

    Why doesn't Wolverine's healing factor stop the zombie infection?

    In Marvel Zombies, how come he is susceptible to the bites and the virus? Shouldn't his healing factor stop the virus, or at least keep it at bay.

    I'm pretty sure they said why in the issue pertaining to him and Kitty in the past (in Return), but i can't remember off hand.
    but characters that are alot more resilient got the virus, as it had a very potent nature and could evolve around
    almost any adversity. the only exception seemed to be characters whose physical cells weren't interconnected,
    like Sandman and Manthing for example. I think it was because the virus worked faster than his hf, as it did to 
    characters like Hulks as well, but don't quote me for sure on that. It's been awhile since I read that volume.

    hardly. those books were ridiculously in depth, all things considering they had well over six volumes 
    to do that. and Kirkman doesn't do convoluted bad writing.

    Yes things do gladiators eye beams that are hotter then stars wolverine claws & so much more but it also that the virus stopped powers in a way so i understand wolverine but hulk juggernaut & all the other non  mutants shouldn't have been effected unless they got bitten .
