X-Men Universe Relationship Map
UncannyXMen.Net has a relationship map of the characters in the X-Men universe(s). The color of the lines mean such things as "one sided infatuation" and "single date/kissed/one night stand." A dashed line "signifies one of the parties is from an alternative reality." X-Men Universe Relationship Map (Thanks, COOP!)

ha! i think i found an error. they showed tyger tiger on there twice and she was only linked to wolverine on both of them hmmmm
Dayum!!! Wolverine is a slizut!
Wolverine's pimpitude, now in handy infographic form!
"Relationship map" is that what the kids call 'em these days or is it just a more pc-oriented term?
When I was in collage we never called them anything other than "f***charts", and yet they were much more elaborate than this one even though they hardly ever involved any fictional characters.
There must be something wrong with me... I already have seen thigs like this earlier but I don't suggest it because it was not really interesting to me. When I find somethins really amusing and suggest it no one seems to care about it or will publish latter when another person suggest it...
Once you go adamantium, you never go back.
Wow, I actually need one of these! Thanks!
Lol - this just makes me think of "The Boys".
@Eeyorex: "f***charts", eh? Sound like rather an interesting collage class, that one.
That explains how the Legacy Virus spread so quickly.
I was going to make a comment about the fact that these are fairly common among manga series, when I got hypnotized by all the crazy lines and microscopic pics.
What snapped me out of it was spotting Dazzler. DAZZLER! Instant embarrassment.
When you need a flowchart to keep track of your comicbooks storyline, then it's time to go.
I hear Mystique does it til she's blue in the face.
Cyclops indeed.
Multiple Man? Right...
Looks like Cable lays some.
Okay, sorry. I'll stop.
Where's Northstar and who's he connected to?
-S
@seanpatgallagher
Northstar's towards the bottom, crush on Iceman
How is Professor X missing from this? Major oversight, unless I just missed him. (But there's not connection to Jean, which is the logical place to start.)
For someone who can't touch people, Rogue gets around a bit. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)
The only thing more confusing is the Summers family tree.
Wolverine has got to have a few mutant fun babies out there somewhere.
Just from skimming, it looks like a connected graph. This means every character on there probably has a Wolverine Number.
I wonder if their data is up somewhere so some nifty "What's your wolverine number?" app can get set up :)
Deadpool clearly has commitment issues.
I was right when I first read the title. To find Wolverine, you just look for the biggest batch of lines and follow them... :P
"Deadpool clearly has commitment issues."
You realize Deadpool can hear you, right?

I thought Jubilee had a crush on Wolverine at some point... I can't replace the timeline / period / universe or whatever, but really I'm sure she had her girl crush on him...
Coming this Fall to CBS..."Everybody Loves Wolverine!"
Watch mutant hijinks when Wolverine tries to manage all the women in his life. Co-starring Betty White as Wolverine's Mother who lives next-door.
This perfectly illustrates why I can't stand to read superhero comics any more.
Mystique -> Wolverine -> Storm -> Nightcrawler. *shiver*
Also,
Scarlet Witch (two paths to) Wolverine (two paths to) Magneto. *twitch* (Quiksilver connects to Magneto also)
Also,
Jean Grey -> Wolverine -> Storm -> Cable *ergh*
Thankfully, Siryn is completely cut off from Banshee (except for an alternate reality)
Does anyone know where to find the original data source for this image? Ideally something that's not in narrative, paragraph form?
For something similar check out the Marvel Universe collaboration network:

Those guys wrote a paper claiming the Marvel collaboration network is not much different from empirical, non-fictional collaboration networks.
@22,
I think Jubilee was palling around with Wolverine during the time when the Xmen were exhiled in Australia and first encountered the island of Genosha. This would have been in the early 90s, after Mark Silvestri stopped doing pencils, possibly during Jim Lee's tenure and before Claremont left. I don't remember her explicitly having a crush on him, but that would be when it happened, if it did.
I'll be yet another person going "Wolverine LOL" - I'm glad to see my semi-casual following of the X-Universe gave me the right impression, and he really IS one of the busiest characters out there...
The lack of cannon-babies would be by the Secret Real Origin Story Of The Moment, where it was planned to reveal that he was a mutant wolverine, not a mutant human. It got scrapped with only a few clues dropped, no new explanation has been provided.
Probably it's either "adamantium poisoning his gametes" or something utterly mundane like "all his ninja superspy girlfriends have the spine to insist on condoms, mutant disease immunity notwithstanding."
(I also can't see many women buying the line anyways - "Of course I don't need a condom. My mutant healing factor protects me and so protects you by extension! Oh, and all the metal in my bones means no risk of pregnancy."
Her: "Sure honey, pull the other one."
Wolverine has a son. Named Dakken.
Ahem. Did I miss this?
Scarlet Witch & Quicksilver
Maybe they disregarded because it's Ultimates.
