Weapon X (wolverine) (Marvel Comics) (X-Men)

About this book

Of all the members of the X-Men none has been more popular than Wolverine -- yet the origins of this mutant hero had always been tightly shrouded in mystery. Aside from a few hazy tidbits Wolverines past has always been little more than a blank slate. In WEAPON X acclaimed writer/illustrator Barry Windsor-Smith peels back this veil of secrecy to reveal how Wolverines skeleton became laced with an indestructible adamantium metal. Kidnapped and drugged Wolverine is subjected to a series of sadistic medical experiments designed to create the perfect soldier. As he battles back against this tortuous experience Wolverine proves himself to be a true hero long before his days as an X-Man.
