Kieron Gillen And Adam Kubert Go Deep Into The Making Of The First X-Man In Wolverine: Origin II
Wolverine: Origin II was one of Marvel's biggest reveals at Comic Con this year, pairing Kieron Gillen and Adam Kubert on a sequel to the Origin blockbuster of over a decade ago now. Here's the cover and a few pr blurbs, with much more to come on this one I'm quite sure:
A few years after the events of ORIGIN finds James Howlett running with the wolves…until something unexpected brings him back into the world of men! Follow the first "X-Man" as he finds his way back to civilization and falls afoul of someone Sinister, who's just discovering mutantkind and the horrors he can visit on them.
"When we last saw Logan at the end of Origin, he was broken—barely straddling the line between man and animal," said series writer Kieron Gillen. "But how did he transform himself from a wild recluse and into the groomed warrior he is today? That was always been a transformation I've wanted to explore."
Plus, discover the secret behind James' greatest enemy! At some point, the mutant who will become The Wolverine must choose: is he man or is he beast?
"You don't play it safe when it comes to Wolverine's sketchy past," said editor Jeanine Schaefer. "That's why we've brought out the big guns—Kieron Gillen and Adam Kubert—to give Logan the superstar treatment he deserves."
