Okay, seriously, do you have any idea where those things have been?

    I vote we move this to the “Ewww” file.

    Then shouldn’t the header have been “BBQewww”?

    One might assume Logan’s healing factor acts as an ultimate sanitizer?

    Nope, still “Ewww!”

    Freezer, that’s what I thought, but then, does he regenerate the adamantium? or just his human parts? And even if he does regenerate the claws each time, they still have to burst through his flesh…ewww indeed…

    I would think that if, say, Wolverine cut someone up with his claws and then retracted the bloody claws into his own body, his healing factor would kill any foreign objects like viruses and bacteria.

    Chennette, he doesn’t regenerate the adamantium, as it is not a natural part of his body. He was born with the healing factor and the bone claws, but adamantium was grafted onto his skeleton as an adult.

    I would have to assume that when the claws pop through his skin, any bacteria living on his skin gets on the claws. But not any more than any normal knife would have on it anyway.

    Wow. This is about the most ridiculous discussion I’ve ever heard. Carry on.

    @Scott: “Not any more than a normal knife would have on it”? Nonsense. Wolverine’s claws rip through his skin and are therefore covered in his blood.

    I dunno about you, but I prefer my Memorial Day barbecue to include as little cannibalism as possible.

    Most people wash their hands before cooking. I think we can safely assume he’s washed his claws before skewering food items on them. Therefore, no cannibalism, no germs. And it’s getting cooked anyway, so it’s not like one would have to worry much about germs.

    I have come to the realization when anyone begins a statement with “Okay, seriously”, that it is a clue that the forthcoming message, on the contrary, does *not* merit any serious consideration.

    Sure, and if Wolverine didn’t wash his hands and claws before cooking, then Cyclops could sterilize his claws with his eye beams. Or Prof. X could kill the germs with his mind.
    OK, seriously–or rather, honestly, if Wolverine says he’s cooking the kebabs, who’s going to tell him no?

    Why would he celebrate an American holiday anyway?

  12. eeyore19 May 25th 2009 at 07:16 pm 12

    Just because Wolverine’s a Canadian living in the US, doesn’t mean he can’t join in on the barbecue with everyone else.

  13. Michael May 25th 2009 at 08:14 pm 13

    Presumably he’s been holding the claws over the grill in order to cook the kebabs. I’m sure the heat would have killed any bacteris.

  14. Seth Finkelstein May 25th 2009 at 08:15 pm 14

    Heck, washed Wolverine claws are probably much cleaner than a lot of utensils used for grilling. It’s like having some kind of super-Teflon cookware.

    But the heat conductivity of the adamantium must be very low, because I can’t imagine it would be fun to have hot blades in your hands, even with a healing factor.

    Wolvie’s clearly an extreme masochist, though. Nobody who doesn’t like pain would throw himself into it as often, or as enthusiastically as he does.

    I especially like Cyclops’ sporty casual get-up.

  17. Jordan May 26th 2009 at 12:40 am 17

    Shouldn’t it be “shiska-bubs”?

    “I’m the best at what I do. And what I do is well done.”

  18. Craig May 26th 2009 at 03:45 pm 18

    Why didn’t Cyclopsjust open his visor a bit and cook the ka’Bubs?

    No grill needed.

  19. Cidu Bill May 26th 2009 at 03:49 pm 19

    Craig, when Cyclops cooks, everything comes out well done. Wolverine likes his meat rare. You wouldn’t like Wolverine when he’s angry.

  20. mdgoldrush1984 May 26th 2009 at 09:07 pm 20

    Cyclops’ eyebeams don’t generate heat, just physical force, so he couldn’t heat up anything with them.

    Yay, I’m the biggest nerd on CIDU!
