Edited by Bob Harras.
Cover by John Buscema with colors by Glynis Oliver and lettering by Jim Novak.
“And The Wind Howls... Wendigo!” (22 pages), written by Chris Claremont with pencils by John Buscema and inks by Al Williamson — Wolverine encounters the Wendigo creature in the Canadian wilderness. Claremont strips Logan down to his primal essence, pitting him against the legendary cannibalistic beast in a brutal confrontation that defines what a Wolverine solo book should be. Buscema's powerful figure work captures both the savage fury of the Wendigo and Logan's feral intensity, while Williamson's inks add a noir-like atmosphere to the frozen landscape.
The launch of Wolverine's ongoing solo series, establishing the template for decades of Logan stories and proving that the breakout X-Men character could carry his own monthly title.
Condition [GRADE PLACEHOLDER] with minor corner wear upper left and slight edge wear along spine, complete interior, structurally sound, and unrestored.
We use AI to research and write our descriptions — we think Klaatu would approve of this miniscule relinquishment of power to the robots. Details are verified where possible but comics are complicated and we're not infallible. Every book is graded by a human collector who has actually held it. If something looks off, just ask.
