Stories

  • Our War Part 1 · 22 pages

    Mourning Captain America's death, Wolverine reminisces about his first meeting with Captain America in 1941 Madripoor where they saved young Natalia from Baron Strucker and the Hand.

  • Madripoor Nights · 23 pages

    Story cuts between a 1941 battle where Wolverine and Captain America are trying to save a young Natasha Romanoff from the clutches of Baron Strucker and a present day tale where Wolverine, Captain America, Black Widow and Psylocke face off against Strucker's children.

Publisher’s description

Wolverine's history with Captain America revealed! In the early days of WWII, before America's "official" involvement in the war, Captain America, still wet behind the ears, embarked on a clandestine mission to the island nation of Madripoor. Guess who he met there? And guess what? It wasn't a coincidence. Plus Logan & Cap's first WWII meeting from Uncanny X-Men #268.
