History: (I tried to type out my own history of Logan, from what I know, but there's too many holes in it still to get it right and in order, so this is copy and pasted from wikipedia.com.)
He was born James Howlett III, the son of wealthy Canadians John and Elizabeth Howlett in 19th century Alberta. As he was a sickly youth, his father hired a girl named Rose to take care of him. They were joined by a third youth whose name was not specified, but was often referred to as "Dog", who would later become James' bitter enemy. Elizabeth's first son was believed to have been born with the same claws as her second son James, but he died in an unspecified tragedy prior to the story's beginning. This traumatic experience caused Elizabeth to go insane and be committed to an asylum for some time. It is revealed that she had an affair with the groundskeeper of the Howlett estate, Thomas Logan, a man who looks exactly like the adult Wolverine. Years passed and she eventually gave birth to James Howlett.
Thomas Logan's son, Dog Logan, attacked Rose, leading John Howlett to reprimand Thomas Logan. After Dog murdered James's puppy Callie, Thomas was dismissed from the estate, but the father and son broke into the Howlett estate to abduct Thomas' beloved Elizabeth. Here Thomas Logan killed John Howlett. James' mutant powers, particularly his claws, emerged when he discovered his dead father and the murderer. With his new powers, James killed Thomas Logan and scarred Dog. Elizabeth chose to commit suicide, having lost her husband and lover and discovering her second son was also a monster (the existence of mutants was unknown to the world at large at the time).
James's grandfather blamed him for these events and sent James and Rose into exile. They made their way to a British Columbia mining colony, where James grew into a strong and ferocious worker. He also adopted the name Logan (originally given to him by Rose in an attempt to hide James' true identity) and acquired the nickname of Wolverine.
Years later Dog, who by now strongly resembled the adult Wolverine's adversary Sabretooth, tracked him down. Forced to remember his painful childhood, Logan fought Dog savagely. Logan had gained the upper hand in the fight but as Rose attempted to prevent the killing of Dog, she was accidently impaled by Logan's claws. Wracked with grief over the death of his first love, Logan's mind reverted into a more animal-type of nature and spent more time in the woods with wolves where he felt more at home.
Various writers have subsequently fleshed out and revised Wolverine's mysterious past. Within the current continuity of Wolverine's background, it has been revealed that he joined Nick Fury, Captain America and the Black Widow fighting the Nazis in Madripoor during World War II and afterward he joined the Canadian Army and participated in D-Day and the liberation of the Netherlands. He may have also been a spy for the allies and it was recently revealed that he may have been captured and spent time in the Sobibor concentration camp. Later, during the 1960s, he was placed on a government Black-Ops team which consisted of him, Sabretooth, Maverick, Kestrel, Mastodon, and Silver Fox. Wolverine had strong memories of loving Silver Fox and living with her in a cabin before they were recruited into Team X, but whether or not those memories were true would tantalize him for a long time before he learned the truth. Team X was apparently disbanded after a botched mission concerning Omega Red.
Wolverine was allegedly captured while off-duty and made an experimental subject in a government project nicknamed Weapon X after his captors learned of his regenerative powers. Surgeons grafted adamantium onto his entire skeleton and left his body to heal itself of the damage incurred by the procedure. It is likely that Wolverine's captors hoped to eventually draft him into their service as a close combat fighter; however, he escaped from the facility and fled into the wilderness. He was eventually taken in by James and Heather Hudson and recruited into their superhero work with the Canadian government as part of the operation which would eventually become Alpha Flight. The intention had been for Wolverine to lead this team, but his failed apprehension of The Hulk, tensions in Department H, and his growing love for Heather led to his abrupt departure. This precipitated James Hudson's adoption of the identity of Weapon Alpha (later Vindicator, and finally Guardian), leading to a number of typically hostile confrontations in which Alpha Flight tried to bring Wolverine back to Canada, whilst Wolverine attempted to retain his freedom. Wolverine would eventually make peace with Hudson and Alpha Flight while remaining a member of the X-Men
Claremont and other writers have added layers of complexity to the character over time. For instance, it was revealed that Wolverine can read and speak Japanese and that he has a strong sense of personal honor. Wolverine has also developed a close friendship with his teammate Nightcrawler, a character whose personality seems written to diametrically oppose Wolverine's. Comics from the early and mid nineties saw Wolverine nurturing a mentor-like relationship with the character Jubilee, who is often regarded as his unofficial sidekick.
Early in their run on The Uncanny X-Men, Claremont and Byrne created a subplot wherein Wolverine became romantically interested in Jean Grey. Jean was in fact strongly attracted to Logan, but her heart truly belonged to Scott Summers a.k.a. Cyclops as they would later marry and Wolverine's feelings went unreciprocated. Wolverine later fell in love with and was engaged to Lady Mariko Yashida, heir to an extremely powerful yakuza family in Tokyo. He was forced to kill her father in a duel, and he also destroyed the father's crime cartel. Mariko and Logan became estranged due to the honor customs of her family and the manipulations of the villain Mastermind. Once they were finally reunited she was poisoned by Reiko, an assassin for the Yakuza. She asked Wolverine to end her life quickly rather than let her die a slow and painful death from the toxin and he reluctantly complied. This changed Wolverine's character significantly, making him more disciplined and emotionally distant.
Shortly after Mariko's death, he joined his former Team X members Sabretooth, Maverick, John Wraith, Mastodon, and Silver Fox, along with Jubilee and Hines of the Weapon X Program, in hunting down Aldo Ferro a.k.a Vole, the man who masterminded many of their memory implants, which Team X's overseers implanted to ensure their control of their soldiers. Wolverine was shocked to learn that Silver Fox was alive, since he had a particularly haunting memory of Sabretooth killing her on his birthday years ago. Silver Fox, however, believed Wolverine had wronged her in the past due to her own memory implants. She was killed by Sabretooth, who was being controlled by Ferro, a powerful psi-talent, before Wolverine could figure out what she believed he had done. Ferro died soon afterward.
Suffering the deaths of two of the women he loved in such a short time sent Wolverine over the edge. Ever since he learned of Weapon X's mind-tampering, Wolverine had become grim and bitter because he wasn't sure if his happy memories were true or not. When the bad times came, he believed he had nothing to fall back on. He was overjoyed when he learned, thanks to John Wraith, the cabin he and Silver Fox shared was not an implant.
Wolverine suffered a mental breakdown which stemmed from the deaths of Mariko and Silver Fox and Weapon X's mental tampering with him. Thinking he was on a prior Team X mission to assassinate a "Terry Adams", Wolverine broke into a Russian space program facility. There he encountered Epsilon Red, a genetically-engineered cosmonaut with powerful psychic abilities. Red, who was the "Terry Adams" Wolverine had once been sent to assassinate before the mission was scrubbed, broke down many of the mental blocks in Wolverine's mind in return for some assistance breaking free from the facility. Now with a greater knowledge of which memories were true and which were false, Wolverine was finally able to pick up the pieces of his shattered life.
This happiness was short-lived for at the culmination of the "Fatal Attractions" crossover, the adamantium in Wolverine's skeleton was forcibly removed by the supervillain Magneto. The act inflicted injuries to Wolverine's body so devastating that his mutant healing factor burned itself out in order to keep him alive. As a result, many of Wolverine's other natural mutant abilities such as his heightened senses, strength, stamina and agility were burned out as well.
Soon thereafter, it was revealed that Wolverine's claws were actually made of bone and part of his mutation, not created by the Weapon X program (this revelation would be later revisited in the Weapon X serial and the Origin limited series). For the next several issues, Wolverine would be unable to extrude these bone claws without severe tissue damage and blood loss which would force him to wear heavy bandages on his hands and forearms (whereas any damage caused would have normally been healed instantly had his healing factor not been weakened).
However, it was revealed that after sufficient time had passed (enabling his body to recover from its severe trauma) his mutation actually began to accelerate. As a result, Wolverine not only regained his normal superhuman abilities, but discovered that his powers had actually increased from what they had been when he had had the adamantium in his skeleton. Eventually, it was revealed that adamantium was highly toxic. This meant Wolverine had been able to use only a fraction of his healing power, since the rest was constantly healing the poison released by the adamantium. Unfortunately, these changes also made Wolverine more feral.
Some time later, another maniac named Genesis, kidnapped Wolverine and attempted to re-bond the metal to his skeleton. This was unsuccessful and caused Wolverine's mutation to accelerate out of control. He was temporarily changed into a semi-sentient beast-like form in which he possessed greater physical power than ever before, which came with the price of part of his humanity. Genesis did not survive the battle following his failed experiment. Wolverine, with the help of Elektra and Stick, found a way to regain his humanity and reverse the bulk of his feral regression.
After several years of continuing to exist without the benefit of the adamantium to reinforce his skeletal structure, Wolverine was kidnapped by the villain Apocalypse, who set up a contest between Wolverine and his arch nemesis, Sabretooth, with the victor to become the new leader of the Four Horsemen, the Horseman of Death. Wolverine barely emerged victorious, and Apocalypse extracted the adamantium from Sabretooth, bonding it to Wolverine. Although initially brainwashed into serving Apocalypse, Wolverine eventually overcame Apocalypse's programming and returned to the X-Men. Meanwhile, his place in the team was taken by a Skrull imposter working for Apocalypse and brainwashed to believe he was the real Wolverine. The imposter was killed by the real Logan himself, while he was still under Apocalypse's control. Ironically, the imposter died heroically protecting several characters who would have otherwise been slain.
Recently, Wolverine was recaptured by the Weapon X program (which is under new leadership). It was then revealed that the mental implants installed by the original Weapon X program were still functional because the new director had used Wolverine as a sleeper agent to track down and eliminate the old members of the Weapon X program. However, it would seem that during his assassination of Senator Drexel Walsh, the previous director of the Weapon X program, Wolverine's mental implants were destroyed under the stress of the situation. Hints in this series point towards the opinion that Origin is in fact the true story of Wolverine's past.
Grant Morrison's run as writer for the "X-Men" title (temporarily renamed New X-Men during Morrison's tenure) also brought revelations about Wolverine's murky life story: The "X" in "Weapon X" was a Roman numeral, making Wolverine "Weapon Ten" in a sequence of living super-weapons that began with Isaiah Bradley (Weapon 0) and Captain America (Weapon I). The Weapon X program that experimented on Wolverine was in fact spun off from a larger "Weapon Plus" program, leading Wolverine to join Cyclops and the mysterious Fantomex (himself Weapon XIII) on a mission to bring down Weapon Plus and discover Wolverine's true identity. During the assault on Weapon Plus, the three heroes fought against the latest creation of the program: Ultimaton (Weapon XV).
Wolverine then gained access to the Weapon X files that describe his genesis, though he does this largely off-panel and it is not clear to the reader precisely what he learns. What is known is that he was intended to be a kind of Sentinel to hunt down mutants and that he had been forced to exterminate the populace of the small Midwestern town of Roanoke as a test of his abilities. This revelation led Wolverine to believe he was a monster and that his only purpose was to kill, but Jean Grey persuaded him out of this mentality while they were trapped on the abandoned Astroid M by the Magneto imposter (Xorn) during the Planet X story arc of Morrison's X-Men run.
Despite Jean's death at the hands of Xorn, Wolverine did not leave the X-Men, though he considered the affair between Cyclops and Emma Frost (aka White Queen) to be an insult to Jean's memory.
As of today Wolverine remains an integral part of the X-Men. He is also an officer of the mutant law-enforcement agency the X-Treme Sanctions Executive (XSE) and in 2005 joined the reconstituted Avengers alongside Captain America, Iron Man and Spider-Man.
At the conclusion of Marvel's 2005 company crossover House of M, Wolverine's memories were completely restored - which caused great panic for some of the major powers and governments across the Marvel universe, not only because of their involvement in Wolverine's life, but also because of the knowledge Logan has recovered. The United States and Canada have purged their records of any trace of Wolverine and Weapon X in anticipation of Wolverine's revenge. The consequences are set to be explored in the Wolverine: Origins ongoing series.
