Guggenheim (the writer) said that there was a possibility of his skull protecting his brain, true, but we don't know for a fact if that happened.

His skeleton is made out of organic metal that happens to be indestructible, so there's always something to regenerate from.

In that instance isn't he also somehow moving despite the fact that all his muscle is burned away?

You're thinking of a Wolverine annual, I'm talking about his ongoing, Civil War arc to be precise.

Well, it's PIS. Adamantium beta doesn't make him able to move without any muscles or anything like that.

I'm glad we agree on this.

Couldn't someone take out Logan indefinitely by locking him in a really high power incinerator?

Or burying him under lots of rock...I mean I know writers would probably have him dig his way out or something even though he'd be unable to move his limbs...

Wolverine had this happen a few times, ever time he dugg his way out. Happen pretty recently I believe. In fact I ment to post it in the respect thread, because it was a pretty decent strength feat, but now I can't remember the issue.

he could be neutralized pretty easily by being buried alive or dumped in the bottom of the ocean

u be surprised how many times he been burried alive, once I believe he was burried for over a month.

But how does that work?

Digging your way out from dirt/rock if its more than just a few feet is something that would take much more than the low end superstrength Wolverine has.

If he can't move his limbs he shouldn't be able to dig his way out.

Plus, wouldn't he suffocate underneath all that rock/dirt?

He digs?

Rocks different, there spaces, and it depends upon how they fall. Yes there can be a lot of weight, but also a lot of room to manuaver. Dirts different, but even then he can deal with more then a few feet. Yes there may come to a point were he can't but there been several scenarios presented in comics in which he escaped

Wolverine a lot stronger then people give him credit, to be honest. (spidermans another character who comes to mind)

He stated a few times he not sure he can suffocate and the very least he last extremely long time.

He been described similarly to DS in that manner.

also why are we talking about wolverine beeing burried alive, what relevance does it have with the thread?

If his arms and body are pinned, if there's no room for him to manuever then he'd have to be able to move however many tons of dirt/rock are above him or just push his limbs/body through the dirt/rock like you or I would push through air or water. But both of those would probably entail at least Spider-Man level strength, in the latter case you'd need to be a full on Class 100+

None, just wondering if Wolverine writers actually think things out before they make Logan do "badass" stuff.

Meh I guess. I suppose I just hold streets and low metas to a higher standard of "credibility" than Heralds and such.

Assuming they are pinned, which is not forgone conclusion. U can be barried alive by rocks, and still have room to move. Also u don't have to lift the entire weight of something to shift it. How strong do u think Spiderman strength entails (becuase I have a feeling u think spidermans a lot weaker then he is)

Clearly he can't do the things he consistently does, it jsut to make him badass 🙄

Some streets and low meta, other not so much.......

The funny thing is, Logan could of regenerated outside or in weird position onto his skeleton (metal).
