- Notice: spoilers del cómic Weapon X-Men #1
The healing power of Wolverine It can be very annoying for your enemies. The mutant can withstand almost anything and you have to get very creative to kill it before you end up impaled in its claws. According to Powers of X, its life expectancy can be around 1,000 years, as long as it lives in acceptable conditions. However, it has its limitations.
Drowning in water shouldn’t be the only thing Wolverine is worried about. The comic Weapon X-Men #1 by Christos Gage and Yildiray Çinar (available now) has brought together different multiversal variants of the mutant to combat a version of the powerful Onslaught. Among them is a very characteristic one: Wolverine Zombie, belonging to the Marvel Zombies branch. If you’re not familiar with the comics, check out 1×05 of What if…?
The rest of the Wolverines are surprised and one of them asks the zombie version: “So, the healing factor didn’t help with the bite?”, and the latter responds with a “Nope”. “See? It’s a healing power, not a magical power,” says another version. It’s certainly not news to Marvel Zombies fans, but it is the first time we’ve heard Wolverine verbally admit that his incredible healing power is of no use against the zombie virus. There was no special plot for him to end up infected.
All multiversal versions of Wolverine are vulnerable to turning into zombies, as indicated ScreenRant. This is a terrifying revelation and one that reveals the power of the infection in Marvel. In fact, not even the Hulk is able to resist it. Almost nothing can do it. It was so powerful that The Watcher ended up deducing in Marvel Zombies Return that it can’t be eradicated, so he contained it. And as a detail, he is not immune to vampirism either.
