Since legendary artist Greg Capullo returned to Marvel Comics last year with incredible variant covers, fans have eagerly awaited the announcement for what his first series project would be! Earlier this month, they got their answer with the reveal of WOLVERINE: REVENGE, a five-part limited series launching in August.
Capullo will team up with visionary writer Jonathan Hickman to put Wolverine through the most brutal adventure of his life just in time for the character’s 50th anniversary. The series will also be available as Red Band Editions, bloodier and more violent than ever and polybagged for the protection of innocent eyes! To mark this monumental launch, best-selling cover artist extraordinaire Stanley “Artgerm” Lau has drawn a stunning variant cover. Artgerm’s breathtaking depiction of Logan will also be available as virgin variant cover.
WOLVERINE: REVENGE will be five issues of pure, unadulterated Wolverine action as Capullo and Hickman pit Wolverine against a cadre of foes who will turn his world upside down, including Sabretooth, Omega Red, Deadpool, and more. He’s been beaten! He’s been bloodied! And Logan only has one thought on his mind: REVENGE!
“I’ve finally returned home to Marvel, and I’m ready to raise some Hell. And, who better to do that with than the Hitman Hickman?” Capullo told Polygon, who also shared an exclusive preview. “To celebrate, Marvel has removed the fences and let us off our leash so that we can bring the most vicious and punishing Wolverine story possible to the fans this summer. I hope they’re prepared.”
“Well, obviously it’s such a privilege to get to work with a legend like Greg,” Hickman added. “When we first talked about the project, our number one concern was taking the readers on a high-octane, no-hold-barred Wolverine story that was a proper celebration of both the character and Greg returning to Marvel. And like he said, the bosses cut us loose and the result is an absolutely wild book. Honestly can’t wait for everyone to get to check it out.”
