This week, Wolverine finally makes his long-awaited (by someone, presumably) return from his "death" in the Return of Wolverine mini-series But this isn't the first time Wolvie has returned from the dead, and if we know comics, it won't be the last And no matter how hard Steve McNiven is trying to draw like Barry[...]

In a rare move for the comics industry, superstar artist Steve McNiven has taken the #ArtBlame for being unable to draw all five issues of the upcoming Return of Wolverine mini-series, requiring fellow artist Declan Shalvey to step in and draw Return of Wolverine #2-4 Though Wolverine's return was teased last year during the Marvel[...]
Just no.
Return of Wolverine
By all rights, we should be up to our elbows in Wolverine cameo appearances, Wolverine joining every super-team in the Marvel Universe, and sanctimoniously criticizing better characters like Cyclops, oblivious to his own murderous hypocrisy But when Marvel decided to stretch out Wolverine's return with the extended cash-grab Hunt for Wolverine event,[...]
Infinity Wars roars onward as Loki tries to talk Gamora into helping him, and Gamora creates the Infinity Warps. Is it a good read?
When Wolverine finally (and we do mean finally — it took five mini-series and three one-shots) returns in Return of Wolverine, he'll be gifted with a brand new mutant power: hot claws Yes, you heard that right, Wolverine's claws now get hot when he gets angry.
But while the new-and-improved(?) Wolverine may have hot claws, that's[...]
He's shot on the approach, and he receives help from an unlikely source: Frank Castle himself.

Hunt for Wolverine: Dead Ends #1 cover by Marco Checchetto
Hunt for Wolverine: Dead Ends doesn't exactly give a lot of information about where Wolverine is Thanks to the four Hunt for Wolverine minis, particularly Claws of a Killer and[...]
We feel pretty safe at this point in calling the Hunt for Wolverine series of minis and one-shots a transparent cash grab Originally launched with the implication that this would be the return of Wolverine, we later learned that the return would actually happen in the Return of Wolverine mini-series, rendering all of the hunting[...]

Much has been said about the debacle surrounding the return of Wolverine, much of it negative, and much of that negativity by us personally Look, it's not that we begrudge Marvel killing off characters only to resurrect them in event comics within a few years We understand how the business works But this one, in[...]
And it features quite a few bullet points, but perhaps the most interesting is the following:
A key revelation concerning the resurrection of Wolverine!
Of course, Marvel readers hoping to learn about Wolverine's resurrection have had a difficult time of late After first appearing in Marvel Legacy #1, Wolverine began popping up in pointless X-tra credit scenes[...]
Todd Nauck has revealed his party variant cover for Return of Wolverine #1, and it looks like he may have taken inspiration from what is possibly the most iconic Wolverine image of all time.
No, we're not talking about this image by Barry Windsor-Smith…
Nor this, by John Byrne, Terry Austin, and Glynis Wein…
Nor even this, by Phil[...]
Of course, it might also feel a bit like a fridging, though all signs indicate that we might expect Cyclops and the rest of the X-Men Blue team to follow suit before this event is done, along with more mutants.
The road to the next era of the X-Men, and the Uncanny X-Men relaunch, has begun,[...]
