Alors première précision, Wolverine gagne les affiliations de tous les persos de la table, pas seulement des personnages que son propriétaire contrôle.
Deuxio, et si j'interprète bien la règle, hors de la zone "in play", son pouvoir est inactif.
210.5 Text can be either active or inactive. Active text generates powers and/or keywords; inactive text does not.
210.5a Revealed cards have active text in all zones unless otherwise specified, even though the powers described by their text may not function in all zones. (See rule 500.2.)
500.2 Some cards have powers that function in a zone other than the in-play zone. These powers will have specific instructions from where a player may play them or where that power exists. Unless a card specifically indicates that a power may be used in another zone or can only function from another zone, powers only exist on an object.
