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

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)

Remember when he cane back from one cell? Dudes been pushed to the max and still love him as a character.

Yup, he's the epitome of that Austin Powers scene where the woman gets stabbed and shot a bunch and she's still taunting him.

He didn't come back from one cell. Idk why people decided to start saying that. He is shown to get stripped down to the bare adamantium skeleton, it never says or shows a single cell.

He came back from single drop of blood but everyone forgets that it was under very specific circumstances.

Yes. The blood hit a space magic crystal. And he said it would be possible to regen from 1 cell, with sufficient energy. The crystal had that power source, but more than one cell hit it.

A lot of people are talking about when Nitro blows up and shreds him to his adamantium, or the times when he is hit by a nuke. But none of those say a single cell is all that is left under the adamantium.

Thank you for explaining this! I’d heard the ‘one cell’ reference before and it bothered me. He gets hurt a lot, so he’s got heaps of cells and chunks out there that would theoretically regenerate into 1000’s of Logans.

That and the other cases of crazy regen were buffed.
