The start of a beautiful friendship.

Hello. My name is Roily Rogue and I am a Logurt fan. Logurt, for those who don't know, stands for Logan/Kurt aka Wolverine/Nightcrawler. I am hopelessly hooked on these two and their friendship in any way, shape or form. Recently, I got a hold of the first Essential X-men volume, because I wanted to study how the bond came about. After reading the beginning, I have more questions than I started with.

Behold the very earliest examples of Logurt.

And early it is. This is from Uncanny X-men #95 - only two issues (and a few weeks in the comics) after the All-New-All-Different X-men are formed. Kurt and Logan are already displaying signs of some serious buddyhood:



But Kurt has yet to know who he's dealing with. One issue later (how I love that first panel) :



Five minutes later or so, they're attacked by the demon K'ierrok (released from his lair by Cyclops' angst). The entire team is taken out, one by one. Then this happens:





(And people say the Cyclops/Wolverine relationship is intense). Now, if Kurt had any sense, he would get very far away from this gentleman and snuggle up with Colossus instead, but since he clearly has a death wish, Wolverine became his best friend.


(From the 4th Uncanny X-men annual)

407 issues later, Kurt can even bamf in Logan's precious car and call him "liebchen" without any serious repercussions. Can love get any truer?
