Ok, you all know Wolverine, but for those of you who don't know Sabertooth, he was the animal-like guy played by Tyler Mane in X-Men.
Summing up their relationship:
Sabertooth is the Ying to Wolverine's Yang. He's always been a thorn in Wolverine's side. They both went through the Weapon X program, they both have similar powers, although Wolvie has the adamantium (Sabertooth had some for a bit too). Most of the women Wolverine has ever loved died brutally at the hands of Sabertooth. Every year on Wolverine's birthday, Sabertooth tried to kill him.
I don't know that two characters have ever fought more in any form of literature, radio, or film. I damn sure know no two characters have ever done as much damage to one another as these two.
That being said, I stated the timing was interesting on the Wolvie film because Sabertooth and Wolverine are no longer dance partners. In fact, their whole history and relationship has been revealed (and it SUCKED, not in a good way...horrible, horrible writing), something that has never been explained and added to the mystique is gone.
Now all Wolvie fans are speculating on a new foe: Romulus.
Speaking of Maervel, their timing is all fucked up. They're working on a Captain America film despite the fact that Captain America just died earlier this year in the comic.
