Wolverine: Origin

A century ago, two young boys grow up together. One is wealthy, one is destitute. One will be Wolverine!

Marvel Editor in Chief Joe Quesada rips it up with this visceral image of young Logan's initial claw unsheathing.

Death has come to the Howlett home - and young James, the Wolverine to be, must leave it! With Rose at his side, he finds a new home, a new life...and a new name!

Young Logan adapts to his new life, but his old one still haunts him. Does his destiny lie among humans or wolves? And which will prove more vicious?

When his enemy traps him in a cave-in, Logan learns how much his body can endure. And when Rose finds love with another, he learns what his heart can't. Now, an old enemy is on the way to find out what will kill him!

For the first time, Logan takes the name "Wolverine," the name under which he will face so much over so many years! Death began this portion of his life, and death has come to end it!
