This March will see a shocking cliffhanger in WOLVERINE #40 that leads directly and pointedly in to April’s WOLVERINE: ORIGINS #1, the newest Marvel ongoing series. Witness a twist in Wolverine’s world that will eternally alter the rules he lives by day-to-day.
In the aftermath of HOUSE OF M, Logan has regained his memory. He knows his past -- all of it. Armed with a clearer sense of who he is, why he is, and who done him wrong, Logan’s got a whole new set of priorities. WOLVERINE: ORIGINS will see Logan don his brown costume and embark on a private mission to set wrongs right, get some revenge, deal with some demons, rekindle some lost relationships, and come to terms with major revelations about the complicated tapestry of his origin...and the patterns he seems doomed to repeat.
"In short, fans should expect major revelations about Wolverine’s past."
BONUS REVIEW by DAL BUSH
If you only buy one book with Wolverine this month...you're only buying 11% of the available new Marvel comics that feature the Wolverine, not counting trade paperbacks. Also, you might as well buy this one. Realizing the scrutiny that a 2nd solo Wolvie book is likely to draw, writer Daniel Way pragmatically/sadly decided to aim right for the middle of the road with this typical, formulaic Wolverine "adventure". The Wolverine begins his Origincentric tales in an assault on the White House (damn Canadians!) that draws in SHIELD, because God knows we haven't seen them enough these days. Mediocre, but inoffensive. Bonus points for including an awesome underused character on the last page. Give me a red! 6 Grahams
