six years later, Victor went on a mutant under his old commander Colonel Stryker, for a weapon 11 project.
he looked for James and supposedly killed James' girlfriend and snapped his bone claws. James woke up and Colonel Stryker was in front of him saying that Victor is hunting him too. so he made a proposition and promised two things.

1. he will go through more pain than he has ever been through

2. he will get the tools kill creed

after that, James had a rare metal called adamantium infused with his bones. in the lab, he was known as Weapon X . After he left the Weapon X facility, he became known as either Logan or Wolverine.

Longer story short, he lost all his memory from an adamantium bullet to the skull.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
