Wolverine’s Family Tree — Explained

Wolverine is the kind of success that few could have planned. He first appeared as a third wheel in a battle between Hulk and the Wendigo. At this period in Marvel history, debuting characters weren’t the cream of the crop like in the Silver Age. Not every character was meant to be a blockbuster, and Wolverine definitely felt like someone who might never be seen again. Then Giant-Size X-Men #1 happened and Wolverine was a part of it. The rest is history.Since 1974, Marvel has built a multi-decade tale about the unkillable mutant. While he spent many of those years alone, Wolverine has a rich family tree. During his man of mystery years, Wolverine’s family was only hinted at in the barest terms—basically that they existed—but later years would create what many readers would refer to as the Wolverine Family, a group akin to DC’s Batman Family or Flash Family. Wolverine’s family tree is very interesting, as much because of how it’s developed as what it is.The earliest days of Wolverine’s past were shrouded in mystery, but later years would shine light on them in comics like Origin and Wolverine Origins. The true story of Logan’s family tree begins long before his actual family existed, with a mutant named Romulus. Romulus and Wolverine’s relationship is complicated, and Romulus seems to be the first of a certain subset of mutant—more animalistic and wolf-life, with super senses, a healing factor, claws, teeth, and sometimes superhuman physical capabilities. Romulus once claimed to be the first of Lupines, a group of mutants that evolved from canines. This was proven to be false, as far as the mutants evolved from canine stuff, but there’s no doubt that Romulus was the precursor to a new type of mutant. Romulus would lead to the Logan family by some route over the millennia, and the first members readers ever encounter comes from Uncanny Avengers #7 in a flashback story that sees Apocalypse and his Four Horsemen battle Thor in London in the year 1013. A character introduced in that time period was Folkbern Logan, a pagan who served the English king. Folkbern Logan had the characteristic Logan family look and outlook on life – fighting, drinking, and women were the point of life.RELATED: Wolverine’s Adventures in a Nightmarish Dystopia Inspired a Manga Series
