Wolverine?
Meh, I've noticed alot of animosity towards him on the boards, and alot of people don't seem to know what he's fully capable of . . . But I would say that the hatred here and the love in the real world pretty much balance each other out.

Things that he should be capable of, i dont underrate him.
But when hes shown to be able to stab - a Thanos using the IG -, its goes off charts. Whats next, he can stab the Living Tribunal too?

Please, alot of people don't know what he SHOULDN'T be capable of, thats more of what it is.
You aren't really helping your credibilty.
Wolverine is a normal hero, he is a great character, but in an objective debate, where we lay them side by side, ability by ability...
go check wolverine vs metallo, carnage, godzilla, 5 elder preds.
Its insane.

Everyone has bouts of accomplishments they shouldn't do.
Stabbing thanos, standing up to(not being moved by) a Namor punch, yeah these are things that were done for the sake of the plot.
But everyone does things like this. . . Of course the higher up on the scale a person is the more they should be allowed to fluctuate.
However Wolverine probably doesn't have the most feats that should be outside of his described abilities. . .

Ummm yes he does, the problem is :
800 lifting weight,
peak human speed and agility
super senses and fighting skill don't equate to fighting galactus.

The REAL sad thing about Wolverine is...he is an interesting, deep, colorful and capable character who would still feature these qualities WITHOUT stupid writers, thinking a character has to act over his abilities constantly to be considered cool by the readers!!!
In fact they exactly causing the opposite effect on me!

agreed his best victories are when he didn't have the claws always out, or the super ultra healing, he used more skill to win...
But, sales counts, and marvel is in a writing slump trying to please fanboys.

The reason why people are in love wiht Wolverine is because he must have some of the best character writing and development ever. He isnt extradinary in anything but h2h, but he is still probably everyones favorite, why??? Because the people that write his Storylines write their ASSES off.... and hey i aint mad at him... dont hate the player hate the game...
WORD!

Re Wolvie: When he's written overpowered it's stupid and boring. The way he roughed up Namor in New Invaders made me want to put the book down. I didn't so much mind him stabbing Thanos in that it was totally ineffective, although it shows the general misunderstanding of how much force Logan should be able to put behind his claws. There unbreakable and quite sharp, but he still needs enough force to break an object's surface tension, which for Thanos, the Hulk, or other such creatures is far more than he should really be able to exert. Really, anything that can stop an AP rifle round ought to be claw-proof unless there's a super-strong arm behind it.
Bone-claw feral Logan was profoundly bad. Dark Pheonix saga through the Austrailia period was perfect.
For most overrated though, I'll take Professor X. Far all they yammer on about how powerful he is, he's hardly ever able to accomplish anything significant. There's always some plot device or another holding him back. I wouldn't mind that so much, since every story ending with "and then Charles mind controls the bad guy" would be lame, except that they're constantly hyping how big and powerful he is.
In both cases, less would be more.
