Stories

  • Born in Blood Part Two · 22 pages

    As Wolverine heads out to confront Nuke, he recalls a time in Viet Nam when he pushed the crazed super soldier over the edge so he would destroy an entire village. The government learns that Wolverine has the Muramsa Blade, a sword that cuts through things on a molecular level.

Publisher’s description

The new ongoing series continues! By mounting a full-scale assault on the White House, Logan has now clearly shown that both no one is beyond his reach. Knowing that Logan is coming for them and knowing that he will stop at nothing in order to achieve his mysterious objective, the world governments now prepare to take the offensive. The U.S. government, having the most to lose, strikes first and strikes hard, fighting fire with fire. Who better to combat the Weapon X program's most successful specimen than with its most bloodthirsty? One hint: Gimme a red.
