Marvel going back to the Wolverine: Origin well for another adamantium dip
Wolverine: Origin III — The Dark Age #1 slices into comic shops on December 16.
Marvel Comics has announced a new Wolverine story, Wolverine: Origin III — The Dark Age, a five-issue limited series that delves deeper into the character's pre-W Weapon X past. The series, written by Paul Jenkins and illustrated by Carlos Alberto Fernández Urbano, promises to explore Logan's life in the 1950s, a time when he was free from his berserker rage and violent tendencies.
After years of participating in World War I and II, Wolverine is shown settling down to a life of peace and service. He eventually meets a compassionate young doctor who helps him uncover the secrets behind his newfound happiness. However, just when things seem to be going well for the Wolverine, tragedy, terror, and heartbreak await him.
Paul Jenkins, the writer behind this new series, expressed his excitement in a press release, stating that after 25 years, he is privileged to share this story that he has longed to tell. He hinted at parts of Logan's story that were previously unknown and promised that the answers will not be what readers expect.
While the series is expected to be psychologically driven and harrowing, it will also be a departure from the ferocity and violence that characterized Wolverine's more recent adventures. Wolverine: Origin III — The Dark Age #1 is set to be released on December 16.
