Wolverine can die, he's died and resurected many times in the comics along with all the X-Men, which the comic series is widely mocked for, every X-Men unless recently introduced has died in the series run and I have no doubt that even the new ones will die and ressurect within sometime.
BTW about the chopping off his limbs, that'd be impossible unless Magneto ripped his adamantium frame, because I don't think anything can chop through the adamantium laced over his skeleton, maybe they can chop through his flesh, but that'd be it.
But he could die from amssive blood loss, suffication, drowning, Magneto, Dark Phoenix dissintegrating him or even Storm overloading his metal frame with electricity and all that etc...

The only way you could kill Wolverine is by severing his head thats why Silversamurai is one of his worst enemies Omega red came close to killing him to but Punisher hunted him down like a fox

thanks, I never knew that
No not techincally
Most of the people in this thread are talking about his physical structure. Wolverine has been physically dead probably hundreds of times. During a Civil War comic book based primarily on Wolverine, he explains what happens when he dies. He can never go up to the light or heaven, even when he's flat out dead. He will always come back. When a girl asks him why he can't ever die he says "Yeah I do. But that's a secret I'm not ready to tell." Probably hinting that Wolverine has some past secret that makes him immortal, and will be told later on or maybe never to add to wolverine's indestructible image. Oh and even if he is completely destroyed, if his skeleton is left in tact he comes back, no question.
Oh here he is without any flesh or internal organs except for his brain, he can come back from this - http://image.comicvine.com:8000/item/2000/1440/5762-wolverine_400.jpg

However that gift was stripped from him recently.
Originally posted by BattlehammerIt was also only revealed fairly recently. so it sounds like a bs excuse. if you look at a plot synopsis of origins then its like each writer wants to reveal something big and dramatic about the character. Oh, Wolverine had a pregnant wife, oh he can only be killed by this weapon, oh he has a son, oh he beat the angel of death. Oh that gift was stripped from him.
They all ready revealed the secret. His soul can come back over and over due to winning a gift from defeating the angle of death.However that gift was stripped from him recently.
Fact is they CAN'T permenantly kill a character that such a great source of income for them. Killing Captain America was a mistake for example and had a negative impact on them.
Originally posted by GenoshaDeadpool and wolverine have the same exact healing factor. The only reason Wolverines is slower is because adamantium is a poisonous metal and it handcaps his healing factor a bit so it doesn't work as well as its supposed too.
Yeah, I think he does, but slowly. I know Deadpool can, and he's esentially made of the same stuff, though his healiing factor is supposed to be better than Wolverine's.
In fact, Deadpool got his healing factor from Wolverine.
By the way, the only way I know to kill wolverine is drowning him. You can break his neck to put him down for a long time (all his joints are connected by adamantium chains but his neck is kind of bare I guess) and it takes him a long time to recover from broken necks.
I knew that DP got his healing factor from Wolvie, I was under the impression that a lot of the WeaponX test subjects did, but I thought that DP's was for some reason more intense, thus accounting for his scarring.
BTW, In Wolverine Origins ...24 I think, DP is talking about the difficulty in killing Wolverine and mentions that drowing is the only way to do it. As a matter of facte he shoots Logan in the head in the preivious issue seeming to know ahead of time that it's not going to kill him.
For anyone who cares, that story arc runs from issue 21 to 25 (Which I think comes out this week). I don't normally do wolverine, but I've been interested in deadpool lately., and it's pretty fun.
i believe the original "healing factor" template weapon x used was taken from wyre, and not wolverine.
also, if wolverine's powers operated within any sensical biological limit, massive tissue loss or trauma would kill him. but he's regenerated from a skeleton, which makes no scientific sense, so really it's just up to whatever the writers want to say. it's non-sensical to the extreme.
in the xavier protocols, xavier surmised that decapitation was the best and only reliable way to kill wolverine. this way when he was without his adamantium, and xavier was unsure how the changes in his healing factor would account for the difference.
