X-Men Origins: Wolverine Summed Up in One Ludicrous Product
You are looking at the official — as in Marvel-licensed and approved — Wolverine golf club cover. Yes, the most savage mutant anti-hero in the Marvel U is adorably chubby and ready to help older white men protect their golf clubs from dust, rain and inadvertent scratches as they play the least active sport in the world. At $10, it’s quite the deal, which is why you can likely buy it at CrazeeDeals.com.
This Wolverine has been declawed on about 8 different levels, and if there’s a better image to represent the Wolverine movie, I don’t know what it is. Actually, I’m hard-pressed to think of a less appropriate product for Wolverine, period. Maybe a mobile that you can hang over a baby’s crib where he’s hugging Magneto? I await your ideas in the comments. Also, thanks to Fishdick for the tip.

He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.

Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
