a combo. Pretty sure wolverines don't break their own bones to grow knuckles
Well the comic character also doesn't do that, so that kinda is my point actually. Maybe we can compromise on Wolverfrog.
...i can see someone didnt even bother to look at the diagrams or read any deeper about this frog
frog has been around well before the character
I can see someone entirely missed the point of the exchange, but still possesses the irrational need to appear correct in insubstantial discussion. What else are you noticing?
i dont believe in your fantasy that wolverine invented the claw coming out of the knuckles and some random frog just watched marvel and thought woopie ill try that.
the intellect in these forums is dismal.
I've never been more complimented by a downvote by a group of trolling idiots. certainly makes it easier which bad actors to block.
The character does not break his bones to weaponize them, and the frog had no role in naming itself. Other people did that, just like other people in this thread pointed out the wolverine part of this species name came much later on and was clearly inspired by popular culture. This bit you're doing of being absurdly, intentionally incorrect and then gaslighting everyone around you to get negative engagement is like a toddler smearing their shit on the tablecloth to get a reaction; It is tiresome. This is where we stop talking.
