This was more than just the tale of how Wolverine got his adamantium skeleton and claws. Legendary creator Barry Windsor-Smith challenged fans' expectations of super hero stories and created Marvel's most brutal and beautiful comic. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 1991, when \u003ci\u003eWeapon X \u003c\/i\u003ewas first published, Wolverine was one of Marvel's most popular super heroes. For \u003ci\u003eWeapon X\u003c\/i\u003e, creator Windsor-Smith reimagined the super hero origin story as a cyberpunk horror story. A shadowy organization abducts Wolverine in order to create \"the ultimate killing machine,\" and we are plunged into a story of basic, animalistic survival. As Wolverine endures more and more trauma, the lines between reality and consciousness disappear. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIllustrated with full-color art from this legendary storyline, Jim Rugg's entry in the\u003cb\u003e Marvel Age of Comics\u003c\/b\u003e takes a deep-dive into one of Marvel's most experimental and singular comics, and what many consider to be the definitive Wolverine story.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-13: 9798765138762\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Rugg, Jim\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Jun 2026)","offer_id":46414439874757,"sku":"9798765138762","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9798765138762.jpg?v=1781865536","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/wolverine-weapon-x","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
