That's Yet Another Wolverine Thread, by the way.
This has probably already been covered by now, as the book in question (Wolverine #43 I think. Whatever the newest one is) is a few weeks old now, but I've been away. Did my eyes decieve me, or did wolverine get all the flesh and organs burned off of his body, and recover fully within a few minutes?
I think this is going a bit too far. What happened to the days when he healed like a normal person, just faster. How exactly does the healing work?
And how does Deadpool's work, while we're at it?
And another thing. Not two weeks after this, in Origins 4, Cap does something to wolverine's tendon's so he can't get the claws out. Why doesn't he just carry round a flamethrower, and blast off anything that's not working. A minute later it'll be sweet, apparently.
Mmmmm continuity....

Ever since Morrison was writing X-Men, Wolverine is pretty much able to regenerate his entire body around his skeleton if his brain is intact. I thought Nitro would have killed him for sure. (I mean, didn't Guggenheim read Days of Future Past?)
DP's healing factor varies with how he's feeling at the time and who the writer is. It's been shown he can regenerate whole limbs in a short time, and heal his body when all his bones are broken.
All healing factors are generally subject to artistic liscence.
Wolvie regenning from a skeleton was bad art, not a depiction of him being unkillable.

I guess, that in theory if he can always regenerate as long as his brain is intact, then he can always regenerate from flame/explosions. With adamantium being virtually indestructable, and it being bonded to his skeleton, then it's always protecting his brain.
Mostly unbelievable, but at least Marvel has set it up for their cash cow to never be killed.

I wouldn't say bad art, I think Ramos took it over the top a little bit.

I much prefer the way Way used the healing factor in Origins 4. He didnt instanly heal when fighting Cap. I thought that was total crap in the last Wolverine issue. No way should he have regenerated that quickly or at all for that matter. I have hated how most people use Logan's Healing factor lately. I find its poor story telling.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Marvel has decided we're willing to swallow anything pertaining to Logan.
That Nitro thing was ridiculous, they're basically saying Wolverine is indestructible......makes him a LOT less interesting IMO, but hey, I don't own the character........

I say some new supervillain (let's call him The Castrator for completely innocent reasons) should catch Wolverine and test out just which organs he can regrow.

Deadpool's healing seems to get better as time goes on. At the beginning of his series it was failing and he couldn't even regenerate a finger. Then later on in the solo series I believe he regenerated from just a hand and then in c&d he melted and was a puddle of goo on the floor and almost immediately completely regenerated. There were other times when he was completely indestructable like when loki made him look like thom cruise and then thanos cursed him with eternal life.
