Wolverine's character and backstory were initially created by writer Len Wein, and his appearance was designed by Marvel art director John Romita Sr. X-Men writer Chris Claremont played a significant role in Wolverine's later development, as did artist/writer John Byrne, who had the idea to make the character older than other X-Men. For a period, Wolverine was pencilled by David , who was later dropped fro mthe project because his vision for the character did not line up with his co-workers' expectations. Wolverine was born in Northern Alberta as James Howlett. His wealthy, plantation-owning father abused him, and he ended up taking up residence with a tribe of Blackfoot Indians. When Silver Fox, his dearest Blackfot companion, was killed, James Howlett (then going by the name of Logan) was ushered into the Canadian military. During WWII, he teamed up with Captain America to fight HYDRA and became a member of Team X. He was later kidnapped by the Weapon X project and forced to undergo brutal experiments during which he obtained his adamantium skeleton. The conflicts undergone by his character often revolve around the false memories implanted into his mind during this period of experimental cruelty. The two stories of Wolverine's intended origin are very interesting. Co-creator Len Wein originally intended for Logan to be a mutated wolverine cub, evolved to humanoid form by the High Evolutionary. This intention is evident in X-Men #98 and #103. Wolverine's second intended origin is rather fascinating to X-Men fans. John Romita Sr. drew the face of Wolverine which appeared in most comics, but John Byrne actually used the face of Sabretooth as a reference. He then came up with the idea of Sabretooth being Wolverine's father due to the similarities in their healing abilities and temperaments.Together, Byrne and Chris Claremont came up with the idea Wolverine being around 60 and having served in World War II after escaping from Sabretooth. Sabretooth was supposedly around 120 years old and had beaten Wolverine as a child, which explained the character's hostility. They planned for Wolverine to be almost crushed in an only to find taht his healing factor does not work on bones. His legs are shattered. He was to spend over a decade in a hospital bed, almost going mad (another reason for his rages) when the Canadian Government would approach him with the idea of replacing his skeleton one bone at a time with solid Adamantium - the claws being an extra surprise. This origin was obviously never used.

Wolverine has several natural abilities. The best known is his extreme healing ability. He also has several other "animal" type senses. They include heightened sight, smell, and hearing, strength, stamina, agility, and lightening fast reflexes. He is resistant, but not completely immune, to telepathy. Due to his natural healing abilities, he became the subject of human testing. He had the almost indestructible metal adamantium fused to his own skeleton. This was complete with his notorious retractable claws.

Wolverine Origins is a comic in which Wolverine discovers about his past.

And starts his journey to look for his son Daken and other fearful things of his past.

The Origins movie completely screwed up Wolverine's true origin (although it was fun to watch). I recommend reading Weapon X and Origin for what his life was like before he joined the X-Men. Also, the Claremont miniseries is a very well known series, so check that out.


Very quickly, James Howlette (Wolverine) came from a wealthy family, but when groundskeeper Logan kills James' father, he is forced to run away with his friend Rose. They find refuge in a small mining town in where both James and Rose work pretending to be cousins for several years. Eventually, Rose falls in love with the manager, and they go their separateways. That is Wolvie's childhood story. He then goes on to fight in the Canadian army and becomes a secret agent, and then gets abducted and goes through the 'weapon x' procedure where he gets his adamantium.

Most of wolverine's Origin had always been a mystery in the marvel comics dating back from the time he first appeared in The Incredible Hulk #180 & #181 it was only in the 6 issue mini series publicised between November 2001 to March 2002 in titled Origin that shows wolverine fans part off his back story of Wolverine

wolverine was born with the ability to have bones coming out of his knuckles

so he was born superhero

This is not even close to true,... Wolverine ( Logan) was captured by an evil scientist who conducted experiments on people to make them into super fighting/killing warriors, known as project Weapon X, sabertooth ( wolverines nemisses) went throught the same process, only sabertooth did not have the adamantium bones until later.
