I'm not sure I understand the question. Wolverine joined in Bendis' "New Avengers" and is a member ever since. There were of course a couple of issues without him. But basically he is around since the NA had their little encounter with Sauron and the Mutates in the Savage Land. Even Hickman kept him around.
