Where (and Who) is Wolverine – and What Did He Just Do in Uncanny X-Men #12? (Spoilers)

Today sees the final issue of Return Of Wolverine #5. The first issue of Hulkverines #1. The first issue of Wolverine And The Infinity Watch #1. And the new issue of Uncanny X-Men #12. And Wolverine is, as you would expect, everywhere. Spoilers on, obviously.

We have seen different versions of him of late. Wolverine. A evil-controlled Wolverine. Old Man Logan. And Phoenix Wolverine from the future.

And there's lots to learn. For a start, which is which, and who is who.

Return Of Wolverine #5, which sees the real Logan, revived from the dead by Perpetua Persephone, trying to escape her clutches.

And, thanks to Return Of Wolverine, a timeline that has now been averted. We wouldn't want him killing all his teammates, would we? Return goes straight into Wolverine & The Infinity Watch #1. Which sees Wolverine meet Wolverine Phoenix. And a revelation we had pretty much all expected.

And now his story is ending too.

Which should leave us with just one Wolverine now. In Uncanny -Men, who follows up on Matthew Rosenberg's New Mutants mini-series which left them all techno-virused and shipped off to Colonel Callahan and the military division O.N.E. Remember?
