I have  to admit I find it somewhat odd that I LOVE Fraction's Iron Man, yet can barely stomach his run on Uncanny X-Men (actually liked the Order too). Fraction & Larroca have done it again, delivering yet another solid issue of Invincible Iron Man, I really love this team on this title, hope both are around for quite some time on this run!!! Great work!!!

It happened in Uncanny X-MEN Annual # 11, a drop of his blood hit the Crystal of Ultimate Vision and was completely brought back from that. I don't think freezing and microwaving the blood's gonna do it..lol. The story was written in the 80's by Chris Claremont, now when he came back it should have been w/o the adamantium, but the crystal was magical in origin too, so I'm sure that had a lot to do with it. But, if you want to check out the front cover here's the link -

And the Synopsis of the issue: Horde captures the X-Men and forces them to try and steal the Crystal of Ultimate Vision, but they are tempted by their fondest dreams and wishes along the way; Wolverine's healing factor and the crystal completely restore him from a single drop of blood.

May 3, 2009 10:27 pm Great episode, this is the 1st time I've heard of it. Couple things to point out though, Storm actually really IS African-American, not just African. Her mother was princess of a tribe in Kenya, and her father was American, she was born in New York (Harlem), but her family moved to Egypt were her parents were killed and she grew up in Cairo. Also Wolverine can die, if he was incinerated to the point where there isn't any DNA left for him to heal back from then he's gone. It happened in an early Uncanny X-MEN annual, which he only came back because a drop of his blood hit some magical device and reformed him using his DNA, he was also incinerated in the classic Days of Future Past storyline.
