**James "Logan" Howlett**, also known as **Wolverine**, is an anti-hero from *Marvel Comics*. He appeared in the 23rd episode of DBX, Raphael VS Wolverine, where he fought against Raphael from the *Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles* series. He returned for the 62nd episode, Wolverine VS 100 Barakas, where he fought against Baraka and 99 of his kind 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.
