TK does nothing to the mind of the person/object being held, it restrains them like a physical force.
It makes sense that the person using it, sure, needs to have will. I don't think the will of a person simply being held, would matter, unless they were using some type of psionic force back to resist the hold.
Like, when jean picks normal things up, she isn't doing anything to their non-existant mind.

it's kinda how i see it anyways.
Wolverine has no mind powers, thus he can't extend his mind to attack the TK force or Jean, he would have to use normal strength and whatever. Actually, wouldn't that be how Hulk breaks TK?
There should be no "will energy" comming out of regular characters, and I'm not sure you would find scans to back it up.
Like, im not arguing that this isn't how it works in comics, I'm totally willing to accept that. If I can accept unbreakable skeleton, I can accept "will energy". I'm just saying, that sounds ****ing stupid to me. A character like wolverine should have no TK resistance that isn't physical /meh

Maybe. Julian's problem seemed more a lack of training than I guess they do it because it's one of the more gamebreaking powers, but I agree. StyleTime universe TK would work on everyone. If I can levitate a car and rip off the door simultaneously, I should be able to hold Wolverine and take his sword. Or just make him hold it. Or at least block/deflect the throw.

I would be impressed (at the continuity of Marvel/DC comics) if it wasn't commonly used in that way as well
