Logan learns from Maverick that the mercenary organization Blackguard has gained control of the old Weapon X files. When Wolverine investigates, he learns that Blackguard has put a number of its members through the adamantium bonding process.

Publisher’s description

"THE ADAMANTIUM MEN" Part 1 (of 5). In the jungles of Colombia, people are turning up dead, whole villages brutally slaughtered by a team of soldiers who move through the shadows like ghosts. On the streets of San Francisco, Logan learns that the files from the old Weapon X program, the blueprints for building Adamantium-laced super soldiers like himself, have fallen into the hands of the evil corporation, Roxxon. Once again, it seems, someone is looking to build the perfect killing machine. That means it's time for Wolverine to step in, and remind them that someone already did. Plus 8 pages of Director's Cut Extras!
