So Wolverines been gone for about 2 years now, and I've been having fun in my off time (waiting in lines, traffic, and pretending to listen to co-workers talk to me.) thinking up all the different ways Wolverine could return.So since i'm bored and the modern thread isn't helping, i'm hoping we can come up with some cool ideas!
So, lets look at facts. In Death of Wolverine, he is covered in molten adamantium which hardens around him. he has no healing factor (at the time of this) and the adamantium itself is poisoning him. So, Personally i think it's safe to say that however they do it, it will involve either clones, or time travel because that Logan is D.E.A.D..
I'm not sure if there is another Logan floating around from all of the time travel stuff that happened with the X-Men (Age of Ultron, All NewX-Men, the young ones i mean)
So my guesses are that Department K or whatever letter it is now, had taken wolverine and have him iced, winter soldier style, AND did successfully clone him (mostly) like they were trying to do with X-23. IF the dead Wolvie is a clone, it would be easy for them to say his healing factor failed because he was not complete or some cr@p, and would have died from adamantium killing him anyway unless they recovered him. I also think that this would give X-23 a chance to discover Logan (the real one) and free him again creating a symmetry or mirroring of events from when he found her. full disclosure I've only seen how he finds her from the Wolverine and the x-men cartoon and i'm not really sure how it actually happens.
I also think that this would/could possibly be used as a catalyst for the return of a more modern Alpha Flight or some version of that.
That's what I got. That's how I would do it. I mean, aside from not killing him in the first place.
your turn.
