I'll just humor you, BAV, with a post.
Physics, biology and chemistry are all jobbing for the sake of the plot, so that a mere [metal/human] called [adamantium/Bruce] can rise above the other [metals/humans] and thus, be stronger/faster/tougher than anything else.
Therefore, as per forum rules, physics/chemistry/biology are being jobbed, for the sake of the plot - the definition of PIS.

What's your progress on driving abhi mad?
Does it not? I thought that's when you FIRST work it, it is in liquid form - and you had to keep it liquid. That would be its melting point. Afterwards, then it becomes solid and then never has one again.
BP was lucky she didn't kill him. Proof of her superiority 👆
Driving? He already was.

Yes, correct. Just making sure you remembered about the underlined part 😛

She didn't use her tiara, did she? While not as deadly as that of Wonder Woman, it can and has been used as a throwing weapon.

Heh, true.

Wonder how they got his claws so sharp. Stalactites, for example, are formed by drips of water carrying microscopic mineral particles which are deposited molecule by molecule - IOW, as sharp as you'd get. They are hardly Logan-esque.
If I dripped paint, or wax, and it solidified, it would never get that sharp.
You COULD say it was bonded to his claws - but his claws aren't shaped like that.
With regards to Storm, had she used her tiara, Shuri would be the only BP left 👆

Do you remember saying this?
I might as well say that Spiderman/Hulk/most of Marvel are all PIS, because radiation does not work that way - it does not give you powers.
A character's origin cannot be PIS. Maybe you got carried away. PIS is a made up term pertaining to a character not performing to normal standards in a fight with another character to preserve a plot. A character's origin is simply not PIS. Comic book physics is not PIS.
If you want and example of PIS, ironically, a great example is the BP Storm fight.

They were made from a mold like any other metal.

Also wondered about it. We were never given any details.
Weapon X - excluding the real mastermind hiding in the shadows (Apocalypse? Romulus?) - had no idea about Logan being a mutant.
Yet Wolverine said that his claws were *somehow* honed so keen they could cut through anything. Handbooks describe the adamantium-bonding process as "enhancing the already razor sharp edge of the claws". The only thing Weapon X-ers did for Logan's claws was installing the penetration slots made out of surgical stainless steel.
I guess it's just one of those little comic things we just accept and move on...

Stilt, you just got schooled by BAV. He is now the foremost Logan expert here.

Are those "penetration slots" those silver things between his knuckles? Does he still have those? It would make sense to have those to keep his blades from ripping through the back of his hands.

Yes.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no... after the FOX films and the whole Bone Claw "era", generally not. But his gloves often have them attached.
Some artists/writers still choose to have the metal sheathes inside Wolverine's forearms, the way it was originally intended.

Exactly. That was the whole point behind them.
I thought they gave up on those slots decades ago and only brought them back for TAS so that kids won't freak out when blades penetrate his skin. Then some artists started drawing them again out of pure nostalgia. I remember reading a bio (a shield bio I think) where they specifically stated that claws come out through his skin. I could be wrong though.

I feel like i remember seeing some artist renditions showing a small bar inbetween his wristbones to keep the blades in place.
