"He's the best there is at what he does. But what he does isn't very nice." -Chris Claremont
Inspired by Cradea and Flatline I decided to try photograpihing some Marvel guys. When I was a kid this what Wolvy wore and is still my favorite costume of his. I'm sure it's obvious this is the same set as the recent Watchmen pic I did, and once again I added mist just for some atmosphere. I really gotta make some more set pieces. Oh and I'm using Cobra Ninjas as Hand Ninjas. ;)
I think this was a graphic novel starring Wolverine. Just a cover of a comic book from my visit to my local comic book shop, Funny Papers
He didn't mean to kill the rat, now he's sad.
Drawn for the Wolverine comp at Nostalgia and Comics today...except I only just remembered it was on today...oh well.
This guy was trotting backwards and forwards, round and round. Always partly in bad light or partly hidden, except when he posed for the camera just at a moment when I had my focal length in a twist. Darn. Well, here's the best I did, anyway.
Wolverine: gulo gulo
Nothing fancy, just a basic arms outstretched pose with blood splatter everywhere I had to get out of my head late one night as an exercise.
Next to his leg is actually a little of my *own* blood, so it's a DNA enriched.
Whacked it up on Ebay since so many people expressed interest in this one. ( And because paying rent is fun )
Met up with some people I attended high school with in 1986 to ride the Wolverine 200. We're standing in front of the Scott Fountain. Picture was by one of their dads.
The Wolverine 200 is a 24 hour "bicyle marathon" in which the participants try to ride the most number of miles. Goals are set at 25, 50 , 100 or 200 (of course) miles. Up until the mid 1990s, the Wolverine 200 used to draw more than 2,000 participants with thousands more camping in support. The now defunct Detroit Grand Prix put serious limitations on the course and particpation has shrank to 400-500 people a year.
(Sorry about the poor picture quality; I was using a snapshot camera.)
Made legends of Michigan Wolverines football desktop wallpaper. Includes: Charles Woodson, Jim Harbaugh, Braylon Edwards and Desmond Howard
Left upper canine of a wolverine (Gulo gulo).
The top image shows the outer surface, the second shows the back of the tooth, the third shows the inner surface, and the last shows the front.
Note the ridge visible in the second and third images. Also note how much of the tooth is root.
A tooth is an amazingly topographical piece of work, and it never fails to frustrate me how many people draw and sculpt them as simple cone shapes. They are beautiful structures, highly evolved after millions of years of natural pressures, each tooth designed to do a particular thing, and yet function as part of a whole. Teeth are wonderful things, and are sadly underrespected.

Logan: a photographic portrait
July 2011
Nashua, NH
Photography based on the comic book franchise "Wolverine"
starring Matt Smigiel as "Logan"
Personal portfolio project
Blog post HERE
This continues a series of personal work that started with the Legend of Zelda portfolio. I've been hoping to start a series of images based on my personal passions related to video games, comic books, movies, etc.
Matt Smigiel is a graduate from the New Hampshire Institute of Art who does amazing comics, cartoon and comic book style artworks. He's currently shopping around his first completed graphic novel, "Iris".
Matt pretty much IS Wolverine. He's a big Wolverine fan, I'm a big Wolverine fan. Hey, let's get together and make you Wolverine. I couldn't even get the complete sentence out of my mouth before he said "OMG YES!!!!"

Look at the paws on this guy! Last summer, a visitor reported to our Butterfly Monitoring Crew Lead, Michelle Toshack, that they had seen a wolverine chasing a marmot while hiking just to the west of the Park boundary in the Skagit watershed. Michelle told our wildlife biologists, and Roger Christophersen set up a scent lure to attempt to attract the wolverine to a hair snare and motion camera. The remote camera captured these photos of a male wolverine and the snare caught a useful hair sample.
Keith Aubry, Wildlife Biologist with the US Forest Service had the hair sample analyzed and recently reported that the DNA analysis confirmed this report as the westernmost verifiable record of a wolverine in the last 15 years! In addition, the hair sample identified this wolverine as "Special K", a previously captured wild study animal. Special K was caught in a trap near Bridge Creek back in February of 2012, but would not go down during immobilization and had to be released without a radio-collar intended to track movements across its home range. Luckily, biologists had taken a hair sample that allowed this identification that gives researchers another example of how wide-ranging these animals are - the two sites are separated by more than 45 miles and a mountain range!
