However, the mutant had more than just a hard time when Marvel decided to create a crossover between the Wolverine and the Predator. Covered in several issues, Wolverine had it rough and almost died on several occasions. Yet one issue, in particular, was so hauntingly terrifying for the mutant that even fans were shocked to see Wolverine’s pain tolerance.

When the Predator Nearly Killed Wolverine in an Epic Crossover

Wolverine is a one-man army and is one of the best at what he does. One of Marvel’s strongest characters, Logan is a formidable adversary for several Marvel antagonists and protagonists. However, in Predator vs Wolverine #3, the mutant faced a formidable adversary while trying to escape the relentless pursuit of the Yautja, resulting in one of his most grueling and dangerous fights.

Wolverine has faced several enemies, yet the Yautja has proved to be the fiercest of his enemies till now. After nearly losing his life in earlier issues, this issue focuses on the Predator coming to the Earth to find the greatest prey in existence.

Already having fought twice and nearly dying, the claw-clad mutant is tracked by the Predator to the Weapon X facility. Finding him unconscious, the hunter tears apart his skin and finds his adamantium skeleton. Just then Wolverine wakes up and attacks him only for the Yautja to spray acid on his face, making Logan’s face melt completely.

The hunter then carries back the body of Logan to add to his collection and soon is chased by the Weapon X jets as he scrambles to get his ship out of orbit. Meanwhile, Logan regains consciousness and somehow ends up jumping, and his body is then recovered by Weapon X.

Fans React to Wolverine and Predator’s Epic Crossover

After recovering, Wolverine gets another go at the Predator. After an epic fight, the mutant emerges victorious and finally gets his revenge on the Yujyta who has been brutally chasing him for centuries. While Wolverine finally wins in the next and final issue by Benjamin Percy, Ken Lashley, Kei Zama, and Gavin Guidry, the events of the comics were still too much for fans to take in.

Man not just his healing factor, but the amount of pain this guy can endure is crazy. –@justinstansberry7555
The sheer amount of pain he has gone through is enough to literally make someone crazy. The mental fortitude to live that long. The psychological stress that comes with his messed up family. No wonder he has anger issues. I would be angry every single day as well. –@zioncole3988
Wolverine is just like Spider-Man, he can’t catch a break. He goes through the most horrific deaths all the time, just cause he has a healing factor. His whole life is a massive pain. –@greenmumin
Wolverine has been to hell and back literally. -@kappadarwin9476
F**ken wolverine man this guy feels everything and goes thru hell yet always comes back tearing shit apart. It has always been my favorite character. -@georgez3354
As fans marvel over Wolverine’s immense pain tolerance and the dreadful life he has had, it is a no-brainer that the character is one of the best there is. After his epic fight with the Predator, fans also hope they can get to see a Predator vs. Wolverine fight in live-action too.
