I am honestly surprised at how deep the wolverine well appears to be that you can staple parts of him to literally anything and it seems to be working out pretty well on the page.

Yeah, but the last run's end really did go too far with it. Duggan had a good mix of happy and sad stuff happening to Deadpool

I liked it, but Duggan's run was basically this:

One story starts with Deadpool making fun of Sabretooth's hair and ends with Deadpool killing his parents and burning their house down

Including mundane stuff. Like 'Are we out of milk?' makes him remember the time a milk-mutant was tragically imploded, and a Levis ad has him pining for Jean.

Wolverine is a good archetype. You can throw him into any sort of plot, and he fits.

He's a classic mythological figure. To the dying-and-resurrected harvest god, the trickster, and the culture hero who brings forbidden knowledge from the underworld, we can add: the short dude with knives for hands.

During Greg Pak' s run on Herculse (where he took over the Hulk's book.) He got together a team of Heroes to take on Olympus.
There was an entire bit about how a number of Heroes (Spider-man, Wolverine and Spider Woman) were mythological archetype.
Wolverine was like Cú Chulainn, the Beserker warrior who is consumed by violence but doesn't want to be trapped in it.

I assume Spider-Man was Anansi, even though it doesn't fit that well, what was Spider-Woman?

Yes Spider-man was Anansi. (And trickster God who prevails through his wits is a decent fit for Peter.)

I think Jessica Drew was Kali (possibly Shiva.) I can't remember the rational for it. But I really liked the Pakk/ Fred Van Lente run on Herc.

Spider-Man doesn't actually trick people that often, he usually succeeds through sheer determination. There's definitely stories where he's tricked someone, but it's not his M.O.

I think it's less about tricking and more about outsmarting, which Pete does quite a bit of.

I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.


The main thing that makes Peter not a trickster archetype is that those guys make as many problems as they cause and constantly outsmart themselves and have their schemes collapse on their heads in the end. Peter does have a poo poo life due to deciding to be Spider-man, but that's not really the same.

Hanakaku - The Last Girl Standing, vol 1 ch 6

A manga following smol girl Hanaka who wants to get stronger but is rejected from all the sports and martial arts school clubs because she's too weak, joins an all girl MMA gym at the recommendation of a girl from her class that saves her from a street harasser named Koharu (the blonde with the ponytail). This scene takes place after Koharu won a competition fight in the previous chapter (flashback on the 4th page). I know it's a bunch of pages and maybe it'll be lame for everyone else but as a smol girl too I had feels

Hanakaku - The Last Girl Standing, vol 1 ch 6


This one resonates with me a lot because I'm a smol boy who decided to start working out a couple of months ago on and off but I noticed I was actually making some progress and went "Why don't I go the entire week?" and it has been great :)

This sequence from OPM also is a good one for me:

There's a Hero Association in OPM where people can apply too and are classified in Ranks: C, B, A, and S. A lot of members in the first two are normal humans or people with some sort of lesser ability while the A and S are the usual superpowered anime characters.







The Blizzard Bunch is a group of B Class heroes who take down villains by sheer volume size but when things go south they rely on Blizzard, who has a minor superpower. But this time even that isn't enough.











It seems to be over and the new guy can't keep it up anymore but the monster rises again. But this time he has the backup of a Class-C Hero.

Not chimps, per se, but Gorrila Grodd, Monsieur Mallah or the Ultrahumanite may have probably ended up bleeding on his car at points.
