      Die I miss something? That guy is called Mangione, which is: “Gluttony”

      But… if translated into German and then to English it’s “Wolverine”

        I think the joke is on the pronunciation.

        The G is followed by an I, making it “soft” in Italian, so Mangione could sound sort of like mansion-eh.

        Not really, but close enough.
