Wolverine and Jubilee were in the Australian Outback where they fought up against Sentinel 3.14159, which was a holdover from Trevor Fitzroy's reality. Wolverine sliced off its hand, but the Sentinel blasted him in the back, requiring a bit more time than usual for his healing factor to kick in. Jubilee and he pursued the robot to the Ant Hill - an old Sentinel factory. Wolverine swiped at the robot, slicing its head off, but not before the machine managed to revive the disabled Sentinels that were left behind. ^[13]

Notes & Trivia[]

The character of James Howlett was created by writer Len Wein and artists John Romita, Sr. and Herb Trimpe. Most comic fans credit writer Chris Claremont with truly defining the character, however.

James Howlett was born in Alberta, Canada.

An early concept for the character was going to establish that he was raised by a family of wolverines, hence his code-name. The idea was likely dropped out of sheer stupidity.

Wolverine is the first Earthling to encounter the alien race known as the Brood. ^[15]

Uncanny X-Men #102, "Who Will Stop the Juggernaut?", is the first time that Wolverine is addressed as Logan. It is revealed by way of a Leprechaun who, for reasons that are unknown, was privy to Wolverine's actual name. ^[16]
