The Press Release:
Wolverine has been a loner, a killer, a hero, an Avenger, but can he be…happy? Watch Wolverine navigate Jonathan Hickman’s new mutant paradigm in the Wolverine #1 trailer featuring writer Benjamin Percy, Editor in Chief C.B. Cebulski, and Senior Editor Jordan D. White!
Wolverine has returned from the dead and finds himself in a world he no longer recognizes. Now all mutants are deathless, and have a safe, gilded nation all to themselves. Is there a place for someone like Logan in this world? All Wolverine knows is that there are innocents that still need to be protected, and criminals that need to be brought to justice – and after all, he’s the best there is at what he does.
“Adam Kubert has been a legend at Marvel for so long. He’s done so much great work, and it’s great to have him back working on Wolverine,” praises White.
“I am having so much fun bringing to life this character who, to all the fans out there, is one of the most exciting characters in the Marvel Universe,” says Percy.
Wolverine #1 by Benjamin Percy, Adam Kubert, and Viktor Bogdonavic is on sale February 2020 in comic shops, on the Marvel Comics App, and on Marvel.com! To find a comic shop near you, visit www.comicshoplocator.com or call 1-888-comicbook.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Back when this new series was announced at the New York Comic Con of 2019, I pointed out that I wasn’t really following many of the adventures that were leading to it but with that being the case I’d still entertain adding the first-issue to the collection. While my vibe on this remains the same, I wonder if you all need to see that announcement again for good measure and if you’re nodding “YES” please click “HERE” so you can do that while I continue along. As 2020 gets underway, I don’t have much more to add to the mix about this one but I will say that I hope the New Year has started out to be a good one for you. There’s been a number of cool announcements already and in case you missed the alert that I did, the PiercingMetal outlet will be once again returning to the incredible Toy Fair at the Javits Center as one of the nerdtastic members of the media. Though I’ve attended the overwhelming trade show since 2011 its safe to say that the 2020 event will be awesome since its my 10th straight year but back to the topic of “Wolverine” since that is what the post is all about. So I wonder if the trailer launched any additional excitement in you readers because I found that it was making me even more curious about the issue and maybe even enough to follow it along for a few more months. When we started looking to feature more comic book content for you back about nine or ten years ago with a monthly solicitations missive I had no idea that this would end up being what it has but hey I love this stuff so the more the merrier. I am all about content here at the command center and on that note I ask once again for you to chime in about the new “Wolverine” series and especially if you have not done so in the original post. See you next time my friends. Keep on reading.
