Look who finally came in the mail🥳🥳🥳

Ignore my hand reveal xD This is a screenshot from my ig story cuz I was so hype for him to finally get to me I had to post him🤤

There are soooooo many details on the sculpture that I love. The whole thing itself isn't hollow so it has a nice weight to it but it's not heavy. The little bolts in his body and his claws feel like real metal (they probs aren't but his claws are sharp enough to be convincing). I genuinely sat for like 30mins just running my fingers all over him (😏) and the stand just cuz he looks so cool and he's my first proper sculpture for display instead of just an action figure.

Once again I am asking you to take a fucking look at this shit right here.

This issue even lands a joke, even while that joke ratchets up the tension between the scientists. The wordless panel of the two of them trying not to laugh is really fucking funny, but also, you're genuienly scared of how the Professor (did I mention he's called the Professor? He's called the Professor. How interesting) is going to respond.

Anyway, this Logan dude, they can't really control him.

They can read his psyche though, with a probe, and put it up on a big screen. It looks like this.

This is so fucking good. Somehow reading it in these little eight-page snippets makes it even better. Scenes from a nightmare.

Here’s a piece of trivia for ya’ll!

One of the few ways Wolverine can actually die despite the presence of his healing factor is via drowning. Not only because his healing factor is derived from the brain which needs oxygen in order to function, but he can’t swim because his adamantium skeleton is too heavy and will cause him to sink.

It’s basically the same reason as to why Stitch from Lilo & Stitch can’t swim either:
