Of all the superheroes in the world, film fans think that Wolverine of X-Men is the most impressive thanks to his quick healing ability. CS tells you what makes him so cool:
>>u00a0The character, played in the X-Men films by Hugh Jackman, also has retractable claws to fight his enemies. The claws are naturally sharp, allowing Wolverine to cut through most types of flesh and natural materials.
>>u00a0Wolverine is a mutant who possesses the ability to regenerate damaged or destroyed areas of his cellular structure at a rate far greater than that of an ordinary human. The speed of healing varies in direct proportion with the severity of the damage he suffers.
>>u00a0His healing also affords him virtual immunity to poisons and most drugs, as well as an enhanced resistance to diseases.u00a0
>>u00a0Wolverine's healing factor gives him an extended lifespan by slowing the effects of aging. Although over a century old, Wolverine is as healthy and physically fit as a man in his prime.
>>u00a0He also possesses superhumanly acute senses, making him capable of seeing things that are really far away.
>>u00a0He can't die if he has his flesh burned away, as seen in X-men 3.
