How many people has wolverine killed in comic books only anyone know?

it should be counted, if not for simply the fact that he has undoubtedly killed more people than anyone else in the entire marvel universe

....Galactus....

galactus can suck a fart out of my ass...
(that is my reasoned retort to your logical conclusion

I was coming here to post a picture of Galactus, but I see someone beat me too it, sort of.

That's funny since it seems to be how he was cast for his movie appearance.

Up until the Wolverine miniseries, no one, according to Jim Shooter, at the time. Because "if hehad, he would be a villain and they would have to hunt him down and bring him to justice".

Since then, you would need to use scientific notation.

I'm thinking something along these lines. Exponents just don't cut it, and Knuth Up Arrow Notation is awesome anyways.

Wasn't he supposed to find and murder every single member of Hydra at some point?

That was always pretty weak sauce, since when fighting agents of the Hellfire Club back in the Claremont & Byrne era (and what a grand era that was) he pretty clearly shoves his forks right through a dude (poking out the back of his shirt).

And that's well before any mini-series, or back-in-time stories, etc.

But you are correct, later staff basically hand-waved it away.
