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. <ref>[[Wolverine Vol 2 73]]</ref>

== Body Count ==
* [[Drexel Walsh]] <ref>[[Wolverine Vol 2 162]]; Skewered him while brainwashed.</ref>

== Notes & Trivia ==
* {{Createdby|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]]. <ref>[[Uncanny X-Men 155]]</ref>

* [[Uncanny X-Men 102|''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. <ref>[http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2014/05/28/if-i-pass-this-way-again-we-first-learned-wolverines-real-name-from-a-leprechaun/ Comic Book Resources]; [[May 28th]], [[2014]]; "If I Pass This Way Again – We First Learned Wolverine’s Real Name From a LEPRECHAUN?!"</ref>
