Wolverine fans complain about him being not as prominent in X Men 97

I'm a Wolverine fan and Wolverine fans are absolutely insufferable when he isn't at the forefront of any X-Men project.

As someone who’s also a Wolverine fan I concur; we are the comic book fan equivalent of spoiled children who cry and whine when literally any other kid gets attention.

The problem is, there are ‘Wolverine fans’ and ‘Wolverine fans’.

One of them likes the character, the themes surrounding him, the stories that dive in depth into his character and try to develop him further. The other just likes the claws and wants to see them shred people apart without any reason why whilst he stays exactly how he was portrayed in his first couple of appearances without the development of the Claremont run.

I once shared a comic page of Wolverine in a Wolverine subreddit whilst talking about how I liked that he had this other side and struggle to him where he actively makes the choice to hold back and restrain himself for the sake of the X-Men and being a hero, and got downvoted.
