10 Things Marvel Wants You To Forget About Wolverine

5. He Tried To Sleep With Another Teenager

For most of the time, the Ultimate Universe presented Marvel heroes as living in a more realistic and grounded world than the classic comics. Other times they just said "sod it" and copied Freaky Friday.

In one story arc of Ultimate Spider-Man, Peter Parker and Logan find that their minds have been swapped and they are now stuck in each others bodies. While things are mostly a wacky comedy about an awkward teenage Spider-Man stuck in the body of a grumpy mass-murderer and vice versa, things get pretty sleazy when Mary Jane shows up.

In this universe, Peter and MJ are a couple and, to reiterate, both 15-16 years old. As soon as Logan sees her, he gets a look on his face usually only seen in pictures used for police manhunts and sets to work.

Yes, Wolverine not only tried to convince a teenager to sleep with him, but tried to do it whilst pretending to be her boyfriend. Fun fact: both of those things count as sex crimes.

Also, it's eventually revealed that Logan's mind was swapped by Jean Grey, who in this universe is in her late teens-early 20's, because he kept hitting on her.

It's sure going to be hard for Wolverine to fight crime once that adamantium ankle monitor is strapped to him.

I was just a mild-mannered NCTJ accredited journalist until one day I found out the truth... that I could share my nerdy ramblings with people on the internet! It's just like mumbling to myself on the train, but without all the strange looks.
