There is suddenly a League Of Extraordinary Sabretooths in the Wolverine comic book from Marvel. Sabreteeth? They gathered from multi-dimensions and worked together to wreak their terrible revenge.

Ah yes, Sabretooth, tossed into the bit way back in House Of X #6 in 2019.

And he made a promise…

I mean, looking back, he didn't make that promise per se.

But maybe he did in his head. In another dimension.

The Most Horrifying Wolverine Yet? (Spoilers) — House Of X #6

And it's not as if Wolverine was even part of the Quiet Council. But he did follow through with the thing about Wolverine's kids, anyway. And a few others as well.

And so we have Wolverine strapped permanently by Omega Red's carbonadium coils, suspended in mid-air and looking rather like that classic Marc Silvestri cover.

But Wolverine is the best there is at what he does, and what he does isn't pretty. And today, in Wolverine #42, it may be the least pretty it has ever been.

Chopping off his hands, while the claws are retracted into his forearms. And then extending them again. Oh, and his feet for good measure.

Leaving us with a Boxing Helena version of Wolverine. And one that is still coming for you.

He will heal back, Eventually. But for now, we have one of the greater examples of Body Horror Wolverine going. Even Sabretooth will freak out a bit at this one, right? Wolverine #42 by Benjamin Percy, Victor Lavalle and Cory Smith is published by Marvel Comics today. Will that panel above be the second printing cover???
