Wolverine<\/a> made a name for himself as a member of the X-Men, growing into one of the most popular heroes of all time. While Wolverine has become known for his solo adventures, one of the things that made him so popular was the way he worked with others. Wolverine worked well with numerous heroes; these relationships helped Wolverine grow as a character, changing him from a mouthy loner to someone who has become one of the most important heroes in the Marvel superhero community. Wolverine\u2019s partnerships are some of the best in the history of the Marvel Universe, giving readers some of the coolest friendships ever.<\/p>\n

Wolverine\u2019s popularity meant that he\u2019s had crossovers with just about every major and minor Marvel hero. Wolverine doesn\u2019t go perfectly with every hero, but there are some he meshes with beautifully. These ten Marvel heroes are Wolverine\u2019s coolest partners, giving readers some of the best Wolverine team-ups ever.<\/p>\n

10) Puck<\/p>\n

Wolverine is known for his diminutive stature, but he\u2019s not the shortest Canadian superhero out there. That title goes to Alpha Flight strongman Puck. Puck was given his powers and longevity by finding the Black Blade of Baghdad almost a hundred years ago, and met Wolverine back in the early 1900s. The two became best friends and would eventually end up working together for Canada\u2019s Department H. Puck and Wolverine work well together as heroes, and are perfect drinking buddies. Puck doesn\u2019t get too many appearances, which is a shame. Honestly, the best thing that could happen for Puck is him getting a full-time guest-starring role in a Wolverine solo series, so readers can see how awesome the two of them are together again.<\/p>\n

9) Cannonball<\/p>\n

The \u201990s were a great decade for Wolverine<\/a>, and he made friends with one of his most underrated partners during this period. After \u201cThe Age of Apocalypse\u201d, Cannonball graduated from the New Mutants and X-Force into the X-Men. Whenever a new mutant joins the X-Men, they usually spend some time hanging with Wolverine, and Cannonball was no different. Cannonball and Wolverine hung out in several issues of Wolverine (Vol. 2) from issue #91 to issue #100, cementing a friendship that kept getting better and better. Cannonball and Wolverine made an excellent team together. Cannonball was already an experienced hero at this point and was able to quickly earn Wolverine\u2019s respect, their differences making them stronger. It was such a cool team-up, but it\u2019s been all but forgotten by most X-Men fans since the late \u201990s.<\/p>\n

8) Elektra<\/p>\n

Elektra is most well-known for her relationship with Daredevil, but her and Wolverine also had an excellent relationship. Wolverine\u2019s feral mutation took effect in Wolverine (Vol. 2) #100, and the issue ended with Stick sending Elektra to help Wolverine regain his humanity. Elektra and Wolverine didn\u2019t spend a lot of time together \u2014 their partnership was meant to put more eyes on Elektra for an upcoming solo series and she was shunted over to that series after a few months \u2014 but they were the perfect partners. Later, SHIELD recruited her to help battle Wolverine while he was under the control of the Hand, and once that control was broken, they worked together to take revenge on the ninja clan. Elektra and Wolverine are one of those team-ups that work well, but for some reason, Marvel has mostly kept them apart.<\/p>\n

7) Kitty Pryde<\/p>\n

Kitty Pryde is one of the best X-Men<\/a>, and a big reason for that is her partnership with Wolverine. Kitty began one of the most venerable Wolverine tropes \u2014 Wolverine training the youngest members of the team. Wolverine took Kitty under his wing, and the two of them made a great team. Wolverine trained Kitty in the martial arts and helped her see the world differently. The two of them have since become one of the X-Men\u2019s best duos. They care about each other and the mutant race deeply, and they are always there for each other, whether it be Kitty needing to take to Wolverine about her latest failed relationship or Wolverine needing Kitty because the tragedy of his life had made him forget that he deserves love. They are awesome in combat, and awesome just hanging out together and talking.<\/p>\n

6) Jean Grey<\/p>\n

Jean Grey is one of Marvel\u2019s most overpowered characters<\/a>. While this is usually chalked up to her relationship with the Phoenix Force, Jean Grey is one of the most powerful psi talents on the planet even without the fiery cosmic bird. Jean Grey and Wolverine have a complicated relationship. Wolverine fell in love with Jean Grey immediately, because she resembled his first love Rose, which formed the X-Men\u2019s most popular love triangle between her, Cyclops and Wolverine. However, there\u2019s more to their relationship than just the fact that Wolverine has a crush on her. They\u2019ve become the best of friends, two people who love each other deeply and will do just about anything for the other. Wolverine and Jean Grey are the perfect duo; their powers work well together, and they have perfect chemistry.<\/p>\n

5) Deadpool<\/p>\n

Deadpool is one of Marvel\u2019s most popular characters<\/a>, and has become one of Wolverine\u2019s most popular partners. Deadpool and Wolverine go together like oil and water; Wolverine is straight to the point, and Deadpool is always dropping mile-a-minute jokes. However, they both have a lot in common when it comes to their lives, which has made their partnerships work so well. Their relationship has grown a lot over the years, as Wolverine has warmed up to Deadpool\u2019s rather annoying style. Wolverine and Deadpool have basically the same powers and abilities, and this makes their team-ups a lot of fun. They are both indestructible engines of violence, and the different ways they treat that violence is what makes their odd couple relationship so much fun. Since the success of Deadpool and Wolverine, they\u2019ve gotten even more popular as a duo.<\/p>\n

4) Spider-Man<\/p>\n

Spider-Man and Wolverine were once the opposite of friends. Their attitude toward killing is completely different, and they clashed numerous times over the years because of that. However, their relationship changed when they both joined the New Avengers. The two of them clashed, but they got to know each other better and started bonding. Since then, Wolverine and Spider-Man have become best friends. Their differences make them an excellent team. They have an understanding now that they didn\u2019t have before, and this has helped make them one of Marvel\u2019s coolest duos.<\/p>\n

3) Storm<\/p>\n

Storm\u2019s mutant elemental powers make her one of the most powerful members of the X-Men. At first, Wolverine and Storm didn\u2019t get along the best, but the same can be said for Wolverine and all of the X-Men. However, they got closer and closer, and when Storm became the leader of the X-Men, Wolverine ended up becoming her trusted second in command. The two of them got closer and closer, even entering into a romantic relationship, and have since become one of the X-Men\u2019s most iconic duos. Wolverine and Storm are a near-perfect team, their powers complementing each other well, and their different approaches to heroism work well together.<\/p>\n

2) Nightcrawler<\/p>\n

Nightcrawler is one of the coolest X-Men<\/a>, and that\u2019s all there is to it. Nightcrawler and Wolverine bonded immediately thanks to their similarities. Both of them have been thought of as monsters; Wolverine because of his violent actions and feral powers, and Nightcrawler because of his demonic looks. Wolverine\u2019s cynicism and Nightcrawler\u2019s religious beliefs make a good contrast, and they\u2019ve mastered using their powers and skills in battle together. Wolverine and Nightcrawler are the best of friends, and their partnership has become one of the X-Men\u2019s most iconic.<\/p>\n

1) Jubilee<\/p>\n

Jubilee and Wolverine quickly became one of the X-Men\u2019s most popular duos. Jubilee thought Wolverine was one of the coolest people ever, and the two of them became inseparable. Wolverine helped toughen Jubilee up, and Jubilee helped Wolverine keep his connection to his human side. Jubilee\u2019s bright and sunny nature contrasted well with Wolverine\u2019s darker attitudes. As Jubilee has grown as a hero, she\u2019s used the example of Wolverine to become a greater hero. The relationship between Wolverine and Jubilee has made both of them greater heroes, and they\u2019re probably the most fun partnership on this list.<\/p>\n
