Can Adamantium claws be real? Can someone have tremendous healing powers? Can a skeleton in someone’s body be changed into a skeleton made of another material? This week I am taking on the task of debunking the realism level of X2: Wolverine’s Revenge.

    We have a superhuman man named Logan and he has superhuman healing powers, a skeleton made of adamantium and a badass hairdo. It was said that Wolverine’s original skeleton was changed into an adamantium skeleton which could be possible but not completely possible just yet (the strongest metal in the XMEN world). Well as many doctors and partly educated people know, the skeleton consists of a countless number of minuscule vein and artery chambers to house blood vessels for the utmost efficiency of blood flow to the muscles and cells in the body. The human skeleton also houses marrow which contains stem cells that produce red blood cells, white blood cells and other life critical components. Without the human skeleton in the body the blood would not contain red and white blood cells, nor would it be able to heal itself from virus attacks or even something as simple as a paper cut.

    Now we have Wolverine’s superhuman curative powers. A power such as this is somewhat possible and could be granted to someone who had been dealt a genetic royal flush. We must remember that the only thing preventing the human lymph system from being able to heal itself quickly is just the fact that the human body basically has to differentiate between a body critical substance and a dangerous one. One of the ways the body could do this is to already have the sufficient “data” needed to destroy the bacteria in an extremely efficient manner. This can be done by actually had fought off every single strain of bacteria that exists in the world, or a genetic history of the like which could have been granted by the passing down of the genetic information from parent to child. Another way this could be possible would be to have an extremely proficient immune system in which the white blood cells could have an actual judgment procedure to be able to discriminate which matter is positive and which is negative to abolish the substance on the spot.

    Now on the subject of adamantium claws, these could in fact be a possible presence in the human body. If someone were to take these claws and somehow connect them to the ligaments and tendons in the human hand and forearm to control it with muscle response to extend and retract upon command. This could be done if a process could be developed to fuse the claws to the ligaments and tendons, but it would be a very time consuming and delicate process to achieve. On the subject of Wolverine’s hairdo I believe this is completely possible in the real world and all you would need is about a handful of the strongest hair gel available with a nice blow-dryer.

    In conclusion, I give the realness level of Wolverine a 3 out of 10. I think the creativity of the people behind Wolverine thumbs up for creativity and a general bravo for the ideas of Wolverine’s inner workings and absolutely scientific past. Although the lack of marrow and blood cells would terminate Wolverine’s existence, I definitely think Wolverine’s creator had a love for science and the human body and had a yearning to push the limitations of the human body over the bar.
