bone claws option?!
BrownandYellowWolvie - 3/18/2013, 11:50 AM
Wolvie's origin + Magneto removing his adamantium were soem of the dumbest stories to happen to the character. I hope bone claws are NOT in the movie. Only reason i could see is b/c of a flashback.

I'm almost positive in the end battle he'll have to wear a samurai armor which will resemble his comics uniform.

We know some of the movie takes place before XMO:W... there's your answer for boneclaws
theSHOCKER - 3/18/2013, 11:59 AM
Yep still looks like shit
Hellsing - 3/18/2013, 12:04 PM
Boneclaws are in the movie Brown and Yellow isn't so you can start crying now.

I stopped reading comics, altogether, because of Wolverine losing his adamantium. I think, in retrospect, I was at a point where it was time to quit but that was just the push I needed. I have since started re-reading again but the mention of bone claws still makes me salty...

It is from Flashback.Where Logan falls into the pit with bamboo spears and get saved by the Japanese soldier ...just to sword fight with him!
astromerc - 3/18/2013, 12:11 PM
Everything but the trailer...This movie is going to suck butt just like the last one. Wolverine is 5'3!!!!!!
AlexRival - 3/18/2013, 12:14 PM
Wait he has bone claws now? Isn't this after The Last Stand?
HAQ - 3/18/2013, 12:18 PM
Horrible indeed.
jimoakley666 - 3/18/2013, 12:20 PM
Looks bloody cool.

Are you dip-shits not paying [frick]ing attention, or what? We've seen photos from the movie's opening set in World War 2 Nagasaki where Logan has bone claws.

It's not [frick]ing hard to follow. Good grief.
TheGambitFreakIsBatmanOfCBM - 3/18/2013, 12:22 PM
Some of you guys pay no attention to articles posted here whatsoever. Do you not remember the set pics from the movie featuring Logan with bone claws in the atomic-bomb like sequence? There is going to be flashbacks, it takes place post-Last Stand. There you've got it.
Screwger - 3/18/2013, 12:27 PM
@AlexRival It is Flashback!!!!
INFO - 3/18/2013, 12:45 PM
yep @jimoakley666
GAH - 3/18/2013, 12:47 PM
Would be cool to see bone claws again...
IronLantern79 - 3/18/2013, 1:22 PM
I actually liked the Adamantium being removed storyline, mostly because they went with it for a really long time. It was almost like they killed Wolverine and left him dead for years before bringing him back. That takes guts to do to a major character. Especially a fan favorite like Wolverine.

2Challa - 3/18/2013, 2:52 PM
Soooo this confirms wolverine will have nothing that resembles a "suit" in the movie?
IIIAdamantiumIII - 3/18/2013, 6:05 PM

UltimateTypeface - 3/19/2013, 4:56 AM
