This week’s Wolverine #10 is the next chapter of Logan’s final adventures in his solo book by Paul Cornell. Then in September Death of Wolverine #1 by Charles Soule and Steve McNiven reveals the final battle of the once-immortal mutant.

 

Soule explains how McNiven’s cover for Logan’s final story pays homage to the X-Man’s previous epic stories.

 

“The cover for #1 really developed from Steve’s interpretation of some earlier ideas we were kicking around—like the silhouettes he mentions—bringing more of the specific story of this issue into it. Each part of the DEATH OF WOLVERINE has a different location and even genre, to an extent, and the covers came to reflect each of those impressions in a very cool way. The idea here, with #1, is to focus on the idea that Logan has been associated with the wilderness for as long as we’ve known him. To get more specific, I wanted to reflect stories like ORIGIN with this issue, and it does that in spades. There are elements more directly connected to the plot of this story that you’ll understand when you read the issue, but let’s save that for September,” Soule told Marvel.com.

Marvel revealed the cover for Death of Wolverine #2 with Logan and a haunting image of a mystery woman. This geek’s first guesses are this is Madame Hydra or Tyger Tiger and this issue will take Logan back to Madripoor one last time.

 

As Soule teases, this mystery woman could be any number of femme fatales from Logan’s long list of romantic conquests.

 

“Part of the fun of this story is its many cameos. We aren’t bringing in every last character Logan’s ever met, but we’ll see a bunch of cool folks. However, cameos work in part because of the element of surprise, so I think it’s good that we aren’t ruining it too specifically here. That said, anyone who knows Wolverine’s history could probably put two and two together here to figure out where he is, who those eyes belong to, why green is a major color element,” Soule told Marvel.com.

 

Death of Wolverine #1 by Charles Soule and Steve McNiven arrives on September 3rd.
