In one of the brutal X-Men comic book storylines, an angry Magneto strips Wolverine of his adamantium. The character, played by Hugh Jackman in live-action, almost dies when the precious metal is removed from his body. However, it was later revealed that adamantium stopped the mutant’s powers from maturing. Fans see a more feral and violent Wolverine in the subsequent issues.
In theFatal Attractionstoryline in Marvel Comics, Magneto unleashes his villainous self and intends to destroy humanity. When the government tries to curtail Magneto’s powers, he retaliates with a massive attack on the Earth’s power source. When the X-Men, including Wolverine, tries to stop him, the clawed mutant becomes subjected to Erik Lehnsherr’s torture.
Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine Turns More Feral After Being Stripped Of Adamantium
If fans thought thatHugh Jackman‘s role inDeadpool & Wolverinewas the most feral version of Logan, they should read one Marvel Comics storyline of the character. TheFatal Attractionstoryline in theUncanny X-Mensees the most villainous side of Magneto, who is mad at humans for initiating attacks on mutants.
The government who foresaw his attack initiated the Magneto Protocols, a protective measure againstthe powerful mutant. The X-Men villain is not happy about it and immediately destroys these measures from a floating base in space. He then retaliates with an EMP attack on Earth, leading to the death of thousands in hospitals after their life support machines stopped functioning.

Wolverine and the other X-Men confront the villain in Avalon, whereMagneto forcibly removes the adamantiumfrom the clawed mutant’s body. His healing factor goes into overdrive after the metal is stripped from his body. It almost brought him to the verge of death in the comics.
When Logan wakes up from the near-death experience, with a little help from Jean Grey, he feels something different about himself. He noticed that his feral senses were enhanced and he didn’t feel any sensation of pain. This Wolverine storyline was explained in an Instagram post by@ton_comics_blog.
Charles Xavier later revealed in the comics that the character’s adamantium metal in his body was poisoning him and holding back the natural progression of his mutation. Logan subsequently became larger, stronger, and faster. His bone claws also became larger and his animalistic side became more prominent.
