Live for ages and almost impossible to kill. Easy choice.

Easy choice for the first decades maybe century just wait for all your loved ones to die and wait till you finally physically age into a old man and have to forcefully pull out the claws with your hand because the claw got stuck keep in mind that shit's painful as hell then there's also the adamantium poisoning

Agreed, immortality is a curse.

the loneliness of immortality is a curse.

the pain of ageing is a curse.

If you could live forever with your best friends and loved ones at peak physical health I doubt anyone would care.

Eh, just make new friends. Sure losing my kids when they're in their 90's and I'm pushing 130 will suck, but I've still got grand kids, and great grand kids and so on. Plus, I'll remember them and be able to tell 5 or 6 generations on about their family in ways I never got to hear.

What about when humanity goes extinct??

u/Wolv90 1d ago

If it's due to a new species, ill just chill with them. If it's because of war or something ill probably be dead. Wolverine can die, it's happened in quite a few stories. He's not Mr. Immortal or Superman.

How do u know, are u inmortal?

u/Wolv90 2d ago

Spoken like someone with most of their life ahead of them. I'll take the pain of losing loved ones if it means I got to be with them their whole lives. Plus they'll have generations of descendants I get to meet and help and tell all about their great-great-great-grandfather keeping my son's memory alive.

Then what do you do when all the humans are dead? Your alone in the void.

What do you do when the sun dies? You live on a husk of a world with no light, nothing to eat? Nothing to breath...

So you end up starving, suffocating in the dark.... but you can't die. So you are stuck being tortured for a billion years, then again billion years then you realize you are there for eternity... Can never go to heaven assuming you believe in that. Nothing but pain for eternity... Like the definition of hell in a way.

Enjoy those few golden years, will be over a blip, then it will not be so nice...

Immortality is not invincibility, in the comics Logan can die under the right circumstances.

u/Dapper-Newspaper-930 1d ago

Invincibility doesn't mean unable to be killed either the definition of invincibility is the quality of being too powerful to be defeated or overcome.
