What could you REALLY acomplish with a Healing Factor?

Pfffft. Who wants to help people?

I'd become an unstoppable serial killer. Anyone who spoke out against something I liked on TV, ASSASSINATION!

Of course that would require some kind of ridiculous amount of training and such.....So I'd probably go with that disease for money thing Wild Shadow went on about.

Make millions as a pro athlete - likely in boxing or MMA, where you just have to outlast the other guy.

Then volunteer for dangerous military missions in Iraq or Afghanistan - put the fear of God into the Taliban bastards as you laugh at their bullets as you keep firing. This gets you more fame & hero worship.

i could become an over night billionaire with the fact that my body could produce anti bodies for aids, and other viruses hell they could find a cure for cancer with my blood.. but i would need soe one i trust or just go into a pharmaceutical company and be a secret and get paid for the rest of my life.

I sure as heck wouldn't tell anyone about it. And, if you get arrested, take the plea bargain...like that episode of Twilight Zone, the guy was immortal and he got a life sentence.

I was just about to ask, am I the only one in this thread who wants to help people without making lots of money in the process??? 😉

The pharmaceutical companies would be paying billions just to figure out how to kill you so you don't screw up their free ride.

that's why you do a secret deal with them and dont preach the contract of confidentiality. a pharmaceutical company would rather pay you and keep you on their payroll, slowly manufacturing cures and slowing down the effectiveness so that they can profit more from the cure.

Yeah well, there are mortgages in the real world. When's the last time that was an issue in comics?

That sounds like a deal actually.

I'd take risks.

Wha...why...what?! Help people and...and not profit? Is that possible? I mean, I guess you could help them... and give me the money?

Beat up/kill gang members, murder murderers, rape rapists and so on.

That's "only" like 40 years. If you don't get out earlier.

Okay so tomorrow your in a accident. It can be something pretty much minor or something huge but immediately you start healing as quick as Wolverine. Then you learn its not jus a one time deal but you've actually gained a HF all your own.

My question is what could you or anyone actually do and accomplish with that kinda healing factor in the real world?

How would life quickly change for you? Could you keep it a secret? Would you want to? What would come of it if you did or didn't?

I'd get myself a costume and go all law-enforcer.

There are a worrying amount of people on these boards who would jump at the opportunity to be a vigilante 😕

It's not like you can be a police or something and help people that way with assistance of your power. Working on your own would be the only option, given your "situation". If people found out about your ability, not only would you never be left alone, but you would become a test-monkey if the wrong people got hold of you.

I say that if you get such a great power as a Wolverine HF, you should use it to help your city against crimes or something like that. Just having it would be a waste.
