Question: When did he kill Wolverine? Because we just had a big death and absence and return of Wolverine, but he wasn't killed by Daken for that, was he? The sword is supposed to bypass Logan's healing, but the recent death of Wolverine arc had him lose his healing factor and get suffocated by adamantium, or at least that's what I remembered. Guess we'll find out in the epic "Introducing Old Man Daken" starting August 13th! Spoiler (ish) alert: This is a Demiurge original character, so looking to the comics for his backstory will get you nowhere.

HoundofShadow said: The repeater acts as a check for passive damage. When the repeater reaches 1, check the board for between *2 to 4 special tiles that are not OLS's repeaters. If there are 2 to 4 non-OLS repeaters, deal damage to the target. My interpretation is that each repeater deals 6000 damage. This ability is going to be terrible if you have four of his repeater tile but the total damage dealt is only 6000.*Depends on build.

His mother was a Japanese woman that Logan married back in the 1940's when he was training in Japan. Unfortunately she was murdered by the Winter Soldier while she was pregnant with Daken.I mean, he is actually an Asian person, I'd say. I realize race is a social construct and all that but why is his background an issue here?I never had a big issue with Wolverine's Japan links as I found the idea of using their discipline mindset and training to control his wild side a compelling approach to his character.

The problem with the logan-in-japan is one of perspective. It's a bit hard to summarize concisely (go read Edward said's "Orientalism" for a full treatment), but the quick and dirty expansion is that Japan is treated as an inherently exotic location full of ancient teachings and knowledge, but essentially static. And Logan (or here Daken) is there to delve its secrets and lay them bare to the (dynamic and vital) West. It's a genre of western storytelling that goes back at least as far as Marco polo and has many pernicious side effects (intentional or not).
