    Gonna nerd out here for a second.

    Magneto actually did pull Wolverine’s adamantium skeleton out once. And it was a massive heel turn after Magneto had been a “good guy” and worked with the X-Men for years.

      Holy Christ, can we get some spoilers on what happens after? He couldn’t possibly have survived that… right?

        There’s only one substance more powerful than adamantium in Marvel comics: popularity-induced plot armour.

        The adimantium was actually poisoning him, and his healing factor was fighting it the whole time. So when he lost the metal he became ultra powerful and developed bone claws

          Same exact thing happened to me except instead of adamantium it was my virginity and instead of becoming super-powerful I became a dad.

        Logan burned out his healing factor to survive that (he was fine in the end, though), Xavier retaliated by wiping Magneto’s mind but in doing so he created Onslaught, a sentient psionic entity created from the darker parts of their consciousness (Xavier and Magneto’s)

    I feel like Wolverine’s adamantium probably shouldn’t be ferrous, and if that’s the case he wouldn’t be magnetic, right?

      Non-ferrous metals are still subjected to forces in the presence of changing magnetic fields through a combination of Lenz’s Law and the Lorentz Force.

      It’s why when you drop a magnet through a copper pipe it falls slower than it would in open air.
