When was this Bryne interview? Because until around UCX 141-142, Wolverine technically didn't have a healing factor. When Guardian thrashed him in 109, Wolverine was relying purely on durability.And he'd have to be stronger then 1.5 ton to punch Wolverine "a few miles"... especially considering they were in the forest and there where lots of obstacles to slow Wolverine down.
Few months after UXM #109, it was a joint interview about the upcoming members of Alpha Flight. It was in a transcript form.
Well that's what the "handbooks" say, and yeah their pretty inaccurate but there was no set limit limit or many lifting feats for Guardian. That's were the 1.5 comes from.

actually I thought we were talking about daredevil or cap "taking it to him" or knocking him out, since that's what you were talking about...
Naaaa...there were comment earlier about only a Hulk level bruiser could take Wolverine out. Street levers have gone toe to toe with Wolverine, but the poster earlier made it seem no one could touch him

I have no argument against that..though it should be noted that a clawless wolverine has level rogue before.. so.. that's impressive.
and Roughhouse, but earlier someone said Hawkgirl without the mace is completly useless. The mace is merely an instrument just like Wolverine's claws you remove either they can still fight.

I'd also like to point out that story wise Wolverine didn't rely on his claws, or healing factor for that matter for the vast majority of his career. Seeing as mutants weren't common sight he didn't use his claws or healing factor when he was a secret agent/soldier/weapon x agent. It wasn't until after he was bonded with Adamantium, escaped, and Heather and James found him that he did. Its hard to say how long ago that was because of Marvels vague time-line but less then 20 years... might even be less then 15. Wolverine likely has more experience with daggers, swords and firearms then he does with is claws. He can make do just fine with out them.'Sides he beat the crap out of the chick that lead the Neo with his bare hands. And she took on the entire X-Men and made them look like amateurs, she even shrugged of Colossus' punches. 😉
Oh no I'm not saying Wolverine's is useless without his claws. The claws just like Hawkgirl's mace are instruments they don't define the character.
