Wolverine

James "Logan" Howlett, also known as Wolverine, is an anti-hero from Marvel Comics. He appeared in the 52nd episode of Death Battle, Wolverine VS Raiden, where he fought against Raiden from the Metal Gear series.
He also appeared in the 22nd episode of DBX, Raphael VS Wolverine, where he fought against Raphael from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. He returned for the 61st episode, Wolverine VS 100 Barakas, where he fought against Baraka and 99 of his kin from the Mortal Kombat series.
==History==
James "Logan" Howlett was born in the late 1800s, first awakening his mutant abilities when his father was killed in front of him. His life would be constant pain, serving in five different wars from the Civil War to the Vietnam War, with his healing factor maintaining his youth and keeping him alive. Logan was later taken into the Weapon X Project, their experiments lacing his bones and claws with Adamantium, one of the strongest metals in the universe, while also erasing nearly all his memories, which he would spend years trying to put back together. After escaping the project and briefly battling the Hulk, Logan was recruited by Charles Xavier to join the X-Men. Under the moniker "Wolverine", he would prove himself as one of the X-Men's most, if not the most prominent member, battling for the dream that humans and mutants could co-exist in peace.

**Wolverine had been planned to appear since the beginning of Death Battle, but Ben and Chad couldn't decide who he should fight until Torrian decided that he should fight Raiden.
***Alongside Raiden, Wolverine's most popular matchups at the time were The Shredder, Baraka, Vega, and Freddy Krueger. However, the last four were not chosen because they were deemed too weak for Wolverine, mainly in regard to being unable to deal with his healing factor.DEATH BATTLE LIVE!
