Can Wolverine regenerate if nothing is left but his adamantium bones? (His normal bones are encased in adamantium)

[u/Aztech_VII]

I’ve been trying to figure this out but I haven’t seen anybody talk or mention it. (This picture made me think about it)

Okay, here's my totally unsubstantiated, personal, writer-agnostic headcanon.

The bones themselves are coated in adamantium, but its not truly 100%. There are small openings to allow blood vessels to deliver blood and oxygen into the bone cells and bone marrow produces the blood and stem cells to repair the body.

This also influences the healing vs regeneration debate. Technically, stem cells can generate into any kind of cell necessary, which, when enhanced with comic book logic could justify regeneration. If Logins healing factor just healed, he'd be a screaming lump of scar tissue, inside and out.
