[edit] Recent edits to Daken's page...

I added issue references and placed his bio in the chronological order of his ongoing story in "Wolverine: Origins"

My thanks to author(s) of Daken's page. I look foreward to seeing the image that will be selected for his article, as well as how this new character will develop in the future.74.244.63.126 00:58, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Removed some speculation

Daken probably does have some superhuman physical capabilities like superhuman senses, strength, stamina, agility, reaction time, etc. like Wolverine has. However, he hasn't shown any of them thus far in his appearances. Daken isn't a clone of Wolverine, so all of his powers might not be identical to those of Wolverine. He might not even have some of them. That's especially true since half of his genetic material comes from his mother Itsu. I admit that I'm not really sure entirely about leaving the superhuman speed reference in there. If I do remember right, Wolverine did say that he moved so quickly that he couldn't see him. Also, indicating that Daken couldn't take his father if Wolverine wasn't holding back by trying to reach him psychologically is POV. There's no evidence, at least not as yet, to suggest that Wolverine could take Daken, unleashed or otherwise.Odin's Beard 00:14, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] LGBT?

I notice that this page is listed under the LGBTProject, but there is no mention in the article of this character being Gay, Bisexual or Transgendered. Is this simply an oversite or should this be removed?--208.181.91.25 (talk) 18:58, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

He kissed another man in Wolverine: Origins #11, but later killed him. This could, I suppose, be confirmation of his bisexuality (or not, considering the circumstances). Tathunen (talk) 23:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

The character may be confirmed as bisexual at a later time, but what happened in #11 is too vague. He did lure a guy back to the room, under the pretense of a sexual encounter, but nothing sexual happened. He strangled the guy with his own necktie I believe. It's hard to say he's bisexual based on that. One could just as easily speculate that he killed the guy because of his sexual preference really. Odin's Beard (talk) 23:46, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
