    Mutants typically gain their powers at puberty. If he was circumcized as a baby would it regrow when he gets his powers? Or just heal stuff from that point forward? Or was wolverine unique in that he always had his healing powers?

      He was born in a British colony long before circumcision would have been anything other than a religious rite.

          Christian circumcision wasn’t a thing back then, that didn’t start until the Kellog’s company sold the idea to christians alongside bland cereal to stop children from masturbating.

          Edit: This is not a joke, this is actual documented history.

              Just one asterisk on each side instead of two. Or an underscore (though that sometimes seems to randomly not work, at least on Connect).
