12 Essential R-Rated Wolverine Moments

1. Drowning In Adamantium (The Death Of Wolverine)

If they really are looking to wind up Jackman€™s involvement with the X-Men franchise, there are few better ways to do it than killing off his version of the character. While Logan has come back time and time again from pain and injury that would have sent many other heroes to their (often temporary) deaths, this isn€™t to say that there aren€™t ways of offing Wolverine. The Death of Wolverine follows the titular character losing his healing factor due to a virus and a bounty being placed on his head now that he can be killed. Logan is offered the chance to try and restore his regenerative powers but instead he chooses to accept mortality and goes after whoever is trying to have him bumped off. Unsurprisingly, the hunt takes Wolverine back to where he underwent the Weapon X treatment and brings him face to face with one of the doctors who experimented on him Abraham Cornelius. Of course he manages to sabotage the evil scientist€™s plans but in the process he is covered head to toe in liquid adamantium. Due to his lack of healing ability, this hardens in the sunlight and suffocates the once indestructible mutant. Drawing inspiration from this arc would be a powerful way to end the Wolverine trilogy, Logan finding redemption and finally making peace with himself at the very end. This depends on whether Jackman really wants to close the door on his involvement but here€™s hoping Fox have the guts to go with an ending as challenging as this one.
