I kind of enjoy Raven more, most of the time I find Wolverine to be kinda...........overrated?, Overloved?, I dunno, I just don't like him as much as I use to....

I'd say overloved. He is a fascinating character, with a rich history and (depending on the writer) a surprising amount of depth. The fact that he's lived so long allows them to write him into scores of historical events, which I've always found interesting.

When they write him in a way that shows how world-weary he is, how much guilt and regret he lives with, how he is afraid to love or open up to others because everyone he's ever loved ends up dead... he can be a very deep, sympathetic character.

Angsty teens fall in love with berserker characters, because it appeals to their helplessness and revenge fantasies. I love when Wolverine goes on a violent killing spree as much as the next fan, but where I really love Wolverine is when a *good* writer can reveal his humanity.

sums it up perfectly.
