The Death Of Wolverine, Today
Bleeding Cool first reported the Death Of Wolverine almost two years ago. We then gave you two words to tell you how "Star Wars" We could have used four other words instead but then it may have just been too obvious. You'll see why when you read the comic book today. But two other Death Of Wolverine comics[...]
NYCC: The Death Of Wolverine Panel And What's Next
Jake Barlow writes for Bleeding Cool: So have you heard Wolverine is dying? Charles Soule is leading the charge with Steve McNiven and Wolverine will become worm food this coming Wednesday with the release of Death Of Wolverine #4, and we're reliably informed he won't be coming back any time soon That aside, if you thought that[...]
The Statistics Of Batman Vs Wolverine From A Retailer Perspective
He posts, Take Batman 3D versus Death Of Wolverine shiny #1. In my store we ordered 100 of both…. Batman 3D cost us $187.50 for 100 copies, Death Of Wolverine #1 cost us $149.70 for 100 copies We normally sell 20 Wolverines and 30 Batman so both of these orders were a risky decision. Batman sold 37 copies at[...]
Weaponising Kitty Pryde In The Death Of Wolverine
And it also let to some excellent fighting moves… But, just as her powers have changed allowing her to breathe – or not need air – when phased, as well as travel by phasing out of synch with the rotation of the Earth, so tomorrow's Death Of Wolverine #3 sees her weaponised even further. Unphasing while still[...]
Speculator Corner: Wolverine #80 – The Real First Appearance Of X-23?
We have already run the rumour that X-23 will take over the role of Wolverine in the Marvel Universe, following his death – and a stint in the colours by an inverted Sabretooth. But if so… could her first appearances get a little speculator attention? The obvious one, featuring her first appearance  in NYX #3, already[...]
Death Of Wolverine Dominates Advance Reorders
But that just gave retailers even more chance to up their orders on the final issue of The Death Of Wolverine and the Logan Legacy issues that followed, with orders for separate covers dominating the charts, with the Original Sin Annual, Axis and Spider-Verse, taking the top nine advance reorders for Marvel, with a third[...]
The Moral Maze: Commission And Be Damned
But famously, Murphy got in a little hot water with Marvel's lawyers for his wonderful Wolverine ABC work.     The smart move there, of course, would have been for Marvel to buy the original and publish it themselves and for both parties to make a small mint But since Murphy's original even had an ISBN number, they came[...]
We're Getting A Female Thor… But What About A Female Wolverine?
So yesterday's article on Sabretooth replacing Wolverine during – and after – Axis, was based on reading solicitations, looking at cover images, the usual. This isn't. A Marvel source gets in touch to tell me that Sabretooth is, indeed, becoming the new Wolverine in the Marvel Universe. But not for long. Because after around six months, he too will[...]
Could Sabretooth Become The New Wolverine?
"An old foe must claim the mantle of his greatest enemy to save the lives of all he cares for!" Could Sabretooth become Marvel's new Wolverine? Let's take a closer look… This is nothing but speculation Mindless speculation No sources leaking things No rumour Just joining dots. Take the solicitation for Axis #9 in November. AVENGERS & X-MEN:[...]
Wolverine Gets A Stay Of Execution – And Gets To Live Until Mid-October
The Death Of Wolverine series was originally intended to ship an issue every week in September, and orders were made even further in advance by retailers due to the enhanced covers. However, it seems that something, whether it be cover, art of shipping processes has delayed the book The first two issues came out in the[...]
So How Did Nuke Come Back For The Death Of Wolverine #1 Then?
We had a kind of time loop in Rick Remender's Captain America with the appearance of a Worthy Thor and an Aged Cap together. Well, could this be another? From Captain America #17… we had the death of Nuke. xxx   And while those agents may not be coming back, in Death Of Wolverine, Nuke has[...]

Let's Face It, They're Only Doing This To Make Storm Cry Lots, Right?
At the end of last month's Wolverine & The X-Men did a thing.   So, yes, just before his impending death, Wolverine asks Ororo out on a date Does it go well?

Seems a long way from those days when they couldn't have recognisable brands for anything… like DC's "chirper". Black Dynamite knows it when he hears it. And Francis Manapul does cool things with comics in Detective Comics, showing off the the way Batmans technology lets him see the world, through analysis, magnification and basically cool stuff. In Amazing X-Men,[...]
The Death Of Wolverine #1 – More For Your $4.99
Do you think there is too much death in this world? Or not enough? Death Of Wolverine #1 will be 56 pages, rather than the solicited 40 pages, and will remain $4.99. Death Of Wolverine #2 to # 4 will be $4.99 and just 40 pages each. And Wolverine will still be dead. Sorry.   Do you think there is too[...]
Wolverine, In Memoriam
Often when Marvel relaunches a prominent book, they run a retailer promotion called a "party", to get a little audience participation going on. Well, that might be a little tasteless when it comes to The Death Of Wolverine. So, instead they are planning a "Memorial" for September 3rd for comic stores to participate. Whether that means turned up[...]
