6 Reasons Why Logan Has Ruined Wolverine Going Forward

The Fabled Costume Means Nothing Now

The biggest disappointment of Jackman’s run as Wolverine is that he never got to wear the famous yellow costume that the character had become popular for. Yes, we did get a glimpse of it in a case in 2013’s The Wolverine (see above), but he never suited up in the gear in a live-action scenario. And frankly, this sucks.

We’ve seen some of the most atrocious outfits brought to life (for example, Mystique’s attire in X-Men: Apocalypse), so why not Wolvie’s? As one of the most distinct superhero costumes around, it’s a travesty that it never made a major appearance in any film. It basically cheapens the value and prestige of it. Have you ever seen a Batman movie where the actor hasn’t worn the suit? Also, think about it this way: some day, someone will put on this fabled costume, but it won’t be Jackman. Surely, he deserved better for his legacy?

As something that’s become part of the character’s tradition, you’d think he would’ve at least suited up in it at some point, but nope, it was like he preferred a vest and jeans instead. There will be those that argue how it wouldn’t look good on the big screen, but the fact is that superheroes wear costumes. Whether it makes aesthetic sense in the real world or not is beside the point, because these characters aren’t real. Who wouldn’t laugh if they saw some guy swinging from building to building wearing a red and blue spider-themed costume? Yet, we’d rage if Spider-Man wore anything else in a movie.
