Wolverine's New Name: Why "Blades" is More Fitting for the Mutant
Is there a better name for the Wolverine than the iconic Wolverine Superhero Codename? Fans are always questioning this! The iconic mutant who made waves in Marvel Comics has a brand-new Nickname and some may say it's a far more appropriate representation! We're digging into why he might even switch names.
Why Might Wolverine Consider a Name Change?
Wolverine has become one of the most iconic Wolverine Heroes of Marvel Comics, and a key character of Marvel Comics Wolverine. The origins and history are well documented in the pages of the comics and movies, with most of it revolving around his past trauma and experiences in Wolverine Origin and his Wolverine History. Despite that, in Uncanny X-Men #1, his long time friend, Miguel, decides that a different name, "Blades", is far more fitting for Logan!
What are Some of Wolverine's Traits?
If you were to sum up Logan, it's usually by using a few traits. He's considered to be the toughest and fiercest Wolverine Fan-favorite who's known for being reckless and impulsive! He is not always a model citizen! These are elements that make him one of Marvel Comics biggest stars!
Why Would Logan Want to Switch to a Different Nickname?
Despite Logan's traits, some believe the Wolverine Moniker, and its close association with Wolverines isn't actually reflective of the Wolverine Character! That, of course, could lead some to question what exactly Logan's Nickname might change to. His new nickname "Blades" comes from a long friend, Miguel.
When Did Wolverine Get His Famous Name?
Fans might think this is new! This is actually one of the most iconic figures, whose Wolverine History, is based on how he gets his claws! From his earliest appearance in Uncanny X-Men #1 through Wolverine Adamantium Bonding, he's become one of Marvel Comics most iconic figures.
Will Wolverine Adopt a New Superhero Codename?
Wolverine's nickname is very tied to how Wolverine Branding occurs in the comics. Even though fans have been asking about a nickname switch, it seems the possibility is very unlikely at this stage. However, we all will wait and see, and even get the latest on what comes out of Uncanny X-Men 2024.
How Could "Blades" be More Suitable Than "Wolverine"?
As some fans have pointed out, Logan, especially since his transformation in Wolverine Adamantium Bonding, isn't always associated with animals like Wolverines. This makes "Blades" a more apt representation, with those iconic Wolverine Traits! While he still has many powerful, superhuman Wolverine Senses, a Wolverine Healing Factor, and a Wolverine Short Temper that often make him seem Wolverine Impulsive and Wolverine Reckless, there's a greater focus on his deadly blades and attacks! Will he make this name change or stay with the original Wolverine Name?
