    He has impressive regenerative capabilities. He takes more damage than most other characters would be able to, and recovers. He can take hits from people like Hulk and Juggernaut that would take a lot of time for Deadpool/Wolverine/etc. to heal from. My thinking is that he takes more damage and recovers, so his healing abilities must also be better.

    He is more durable, but he still sustains injury. Since it takes more to inflict that damage, it makes sense (to me) that it takes more to heal that damage. For instance, Luke Cage is extremely durable, but if he sustains serious internal injuries he's in trouble because he can't heal them.

    Wolverine's healing factor fluctuates more than any other character on these lists except maybe Hulk. There are instances where Wolverine's healing has far surpassed anything Deadpool has done with his. I think Deadpool's is better, but you could make an argument for either side.

    Healing factor

    The Hulk's healing factor

    Despite his body's high resistance to damage, it is possible to injure the Hulk. He has been hurt numerous times by opponents wielding weapons composed of adamantium. However, he can regenerate damaged or destroyed tissue with far greater efficiency than an ordinary human. He has proven capable of regenerating his eyes, skin, and most of his muscle tissue within moments of having it flayed from his body by Vector. His future "Maestro" incarnation proved capable of eventually reconstructing himself after being blown to powder. Like his strength, his healing factor varies in proportion to his emotional state.

    He has displayed great resistance to unwilling transformation of his physical form. For instance, he was immune to direct genetic manipulation from the High Evolutionary. Additionally, he fought off the effects of being shrunk by Goom, was quickly restored to normal by his healing factor after he was turned to stone by the Grey Gargoyle, and he immediately tore free, completely unscathed, after having his limbs phased into solid concrete. As a possible side effect, he has been shown as functionally immortal by human standards in terms of long lifespan.

    So it was a trick question. Also, Deadpool's immortality doesn't mean he has the best healing factor. He can still be "killed". He will just be sent back.

    No he won't...he just heals from anything.Wolverine has a better chance of dying than Deadpool.He was in Cable's stomach and got thrown up and was back to himself in a few panels.

    Originally, yes. Since then he has had Hulk's healing factor applied to him. Possibly other things were done with Weapon X and such more recently.

    You know this is a good topic for my question. A wile back I was having a converstion with one of my friends and we were talking about Wolverine's healing factor and he said that in one comic Wolverine was blasted by a mutant forgot his name. Anyway after words there was nothing left of Wolverine but one cell of him and he fully Regenerated of 20 years. sounds kinda stuped to me but I was wondering is it true?

    Sadly true.  I've seen comics where he takes a day to recover from a beating, then I see comics where he gets reduced to a skeleton and he's back within a few panels.. its absurd.

    Sadly true.  I've seen comics where he takes a day to recover from a beating, then I see comics where he gets reduced to a skeleton and he's back within a few panels.. its absurd."
    It's not true.Wolverine can actually be killed..most of the people I named as being above him can't.
