That X-MEN splash by Dave gives one of the clearest views of the capital D cross section of Wolverine’s claws. No, they’re not shaped like kitana, with the cutting edge on top!!

Cockrum's Wolverine claws must be the strangest case of an artist clearly thinking about a character's design and actually having it make sense instead of going for some crazy Kewl design instead.

+++++++++++++++
No. It's not strange at all. I was being sarcastic. It's that nowadays I find costumes are designed solely to look good without a thought about the character they're designing for. Cockrum clearly thought out Wolverine's costume hence the claws actually looking like claws from a real life wolverine instead of the Kitana type thing that Miller(?) designed.

Superhero costumes have followed an arc not unlike that of the starship Enterprise. From what seemed practical (except maybe those capes) the have become busy and even clumsy. “Cool” outweighs logic.

I bought X-Men 114 off the spinner rack as a kid. Somehow I missed 115. I waited a good 10 years to read the end of that story!
*edited to fix issue numbers

I bought X-Men 214 off the spinner rack as a kid. Somehow I missed 215. I waited a good 10 years to read the end of that story! ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------
For the record, the issue is #114 (not 214)
