20 Mind-Blowing Facts You Didn't Know About Wolverine

1. He Was Almost "Badger"

Had history played out in a slightly different way, this feature would have been titled "20 Mind Blowing Facts About Badger". Doesn't quite have the same ring to it, eh?

He had been asked by Marvel to come up with a superhero who could potentially increase the company's sales in Canada, and decided to base this new mutant on of the animals that call the Great White North home. Eventually, the writer was left with two choices; "Wolverine" and "Badger". It's fair to say that he ended up making the right choice with the former! Are there any other surprising facts about Wolverine that you know? Share them down in the comments.
