Story Synopsis & Impact

Considered one of the greatest, most influential Wolverine narratives ever crafted, this storyline provides the character-defining origin of how Logan obtained his indestructible skeleton.

Before this arc, Logan's past was largely shrouded in complete mystery. The dark, psychological narrative unfolds within a secret underground laboratory in Alberta, Canada. A ruthless team of military scientists—led by the enigmatic Professor, Dr. Cornelius, and Hines—abduct Logan with the intention of stripping away his humanity. They subject him to a brutal experimental procedure, forcibly bonding the cosmic alloy adamantium to his skeletal structure to construct the ultimate sleeper agent. Windsor-Smith utilizes a distinct, cinematic layout to capture the body-horror and psychological breakdown as the project spirals out of control and Logan gives in to his raw, feral instincts to execute a bloody escape
