Wasn’t that a Gruenwald for the HANDBOOK?

•••

Sounds like him.

He was the one who gave Smart Alec “Alexander” as a real name, even tho Alec is perfectly proper name.

And don’t get me started on “Buried Alien”……….

Awesome that it's been 40 years and I'm still learning things I didn't know about this era of comics.  I know I'm biased because of my age, but to me the 80's will always be my favorite comics era.

Came upon a poster suggesting a story in which Wolverine realizes he’s trans and attempts to become a woman, but his healing factor keeps changing him back to male.

See, that's a cool story idea but most definitely NOT a Wolverine idea. If that were in an anthology of, say, stories inspired by Ursula K. Le Guin's "Ekumen" universe, it would fit thematically and be true to the spirit of her work.

Best that a story like that is not done regardless, because there will be cries from people saying that there was nothing to "heal".
