I feel like Wolverine’s adamantium probably shouldn’t be ferrous, and if that’s the case he wouldn’t be magnetic, right?
His powers in the comics were explained that he controls magnetic fields or something.
I can’t remember the exact details, but for a while he and Rogue were able to have a physical relationship by projecting a thin magnetic field around himself, so he can pretty much do whatever. 🤷🏻♂️
I also can’t remember if that was 616 or an alternate universe.
Controlling magnetic fields he couldn’t physically move non ferrous metals, but he could sure cause a lot of energy to be dumped in due to induction. Essentially cooking wolverine, and then melting his adamantium into a pile instead of being bone/blade shaped
I immediately knew what that would be and I was not disappointed
Yeah I dunno, I explained the extent of what I understand. I don’t really get it either, but that doesn’t really matter. He can manipulate any metal.
Yeah, I assumed that the master of magnetism would know a few tricks when it comes to laying pipe.
Magnetism technically has nothing to do with metals in general, only unpaired electrons. For example, Oxygen can be magnetic
Wait so air is stronger near a magnet ?
What do you mean, “stronger”? Air doesn’t get steroids from magnets. It doesn’t even lift, bro.
I thought it was obvious I meant has more oxygen. You know… the thing in air that matters to us humans.
If he got one of those demagnetizing things and rubbed it all over his body … then he’d be able to fight Magneto.
Magneto controls all metals from what I understand, even stuff like gold.
Magnetic fields, which is part of electromagnetism. He can directly influence one of the fundamental forces of the universe. Magneto is definitely one of the strongest mutants.
If he’d learn to do things besides bend and move metal, he’d be able to do almost anything depending on how acutely strong of a field he could make. With how field lines snap in the sun and make for huge discharges of charged particles, I think Magneto would be able to do a lot even without making hugely powerful fields if he’d learn some science.
In some stories he does pretty bonkers shit. I know for a fact he makes a meteor fall on Earth in one story, and if I’m not mistaken, learns to become invisible in another.
He can also hypnotise people with his magnetic personality.

Non-ferrous metals are still subjected to forces in the presence of changing magnetic fields through a combination of Lenz’s Law and the Lorentz Force.
It’s why when you drop a magnet through a copper pipe it falls slower than it would in open air.
