The mutant brawler known asWolverinemay be ' the best he is at what he does , ' but a abbreviated visit to aDC Comicsproperty bear witness even his vaunted healing factor has a bound - one that Marvel after confirmed in its own canyon .
Top 10is a comic serial from Alan Moore , Gene Ha , and Zander Cannon , taking space in Neopolis - a city where every individual citizen has some form of world power . The series - bring out under America ’s Best Comics and later DC ’s adult - orient Vertigo imprint - keep abreast Robyn " Toybox " Slinger as she joins the city ’s police personnel , partnering up with fantasy - themed ball of fire Jeff Smax .

After Robyn is injured , Smax visits her to check on her condition inTop 10 # 11 . As he goes to pass on , buff get a coup d’oeil of two very distinctly drained figures being carried inside . However , on close review , these are n’t two number , but rather two parts of a role intelligibly intended to be Wolverine , with Logan ’s metal skeleton , claws , and touch coiffure . Wolverine ’s adamantium skeleton and empty skinhave understandably been separated , killing him despite his extreme healing .
While Wolverine has healed from some uttermost situations in the past times , Marvel recently confirm that reducing him down to his frame is indeed an effective way to kill him - something the advance Sentinel know as Nimrod has done several time ( acallback to his iconic deathin the famous ' twenty-four hours of Future Past . ' ) Wolverine has as well been belt down by being dropped into the sun , showing that once his muscular structure is fully stripped or incinerated from his skeleton in the closet , his injuries become permanent - albeit with the exclusion of his notorious competitiveness against Nitro , which make some majormisconceptions about his healing potential .
Top 10 ’s references are particularly brazen , often recreating iconic characters with just a pallette barter to maintain deniability , but even so it ’s noteworthy to take such an obvious swipe at an iconic character without really changing anything about his design . Alan Moore ’s enmity with Marvel Comics is well known , and his writing for the publisher ’s characters therefore unfortunately rarefied , but fans of the House of Ideas can spy plenty of apparently playful reference in the pageboy ofTop Ten , as well as a invitee appearance from reality - hopping characters Captain Albion and Captain England which impliesTop 10takes place in the same multiverse as Marvel Comics .
Despite being known for his healing factor , Wolverineseemingly faced a challenge he could n’t fit in the universe ofTop 10 , showing that while he may be the top dog-iron in the Marvel Universe , DC Comicsis way less welcomingto the Ol' Canucklehead .
