The Two Most Disturbing Images From Infinity Prime Countdown (SPOILERS)
Today sees the publication of Infinity Countdown Prime. As we told you before, there is an awful lot of Wolverine in it, despite Marvel publicity trying to hide that fact.
As Wolverine, in possession of the Space Infinity Stone gets targeted by all sorts, shows how adept he is using both the stone and his powers in conjunction with it. No wonder he attracts the attention of Loki, who has a thing for such stones, with a mission established in Marvel Legacy #1.
Wolverine has, however, met Loki before. Knows he's an immortal. Knows that he's a bit… tricksy. And basically does the "nuke them from space, it's the only way to be sure" move.
I believe that's known as an "injury to eye motif". Well, Loki, it appears that Wolverine has at least got your eye.
Is that the most disturbing image in the comic book? Possibly, there are a few others from Mike Deodato's pen to challenge it. But possibly no more than this page.
Which shows that the short, stocky Canadian thug has a Thigh Gap. I'm not entirely sure how that's possible. Maybe he created one with that Space Infinity Stone he's stuffed down his jeans? Neat trick if so…
