Yeah, I find Gambit to be more of an intriguing...and yet again, Claire Beckett is watching me post this....*sigh*
Anyway, I find Gambit to be more of an intriguing character, but Wolverine does have some really cool aspects.
Oh, and yeah, Magneto has some major ass magnetism....he'd have to to be able to tilt the Earth's axis. Really.
Wolverine pretty much basically died after his adamantium was pulled out of his body. The whole storyline was called "Fatal Attractions" and every issue was around an anniversary issue of an X-men spin-off title, or on an anniversary issue of a regular X-men title.
X-men #25 had Magneto end up pulling out his adam.
Wolverine #75 had Jean Grey basically holding Wolvie together with her telekenesis as their flying back from Magneto's exploding headquarters to the mansion so that Wolvie could get some real help. At the end of the issue, Wolvie wakes up in a berserker rage and tries to pop his claws....and finds out that they are bone. Yup, Wolvie's claws weren't really adam. at all, they were bone, with adamantium on them.
It was a story that was marketed as a big event, and it was, but all the issues had those really pointless holographic covers and the prices were jacked up cause of it. I wasn't collecting comics back then, but I've done some back reading. :0
