Pop the claws for new ‘Wolverine’ #50 preview

On sale May 29, WOLVERINE #50 celebrates both 50 years of ‘Wolverine’ and 50 issues of Benjamin Percy’s acclaimed run.

Marvel Comics has shed new light on Wolverine #50, along with a preview of the issue. Hitting the milestone 50th issue is well-timed, given it’s the 50th anniversary of the character. Packed with bonus material, the giant-size issue presents the explosive final chapter of Percy, Victor LaValle, Geoff Shaw, and Cory Smith’s 10-part epic “Sabretooth War” storyline plus a story co-starring Jubilee from legendary Wolverine scribe Larry Hama and a special sneak peek at Wolverine’s upcoming adventures in the From the Ashes era!

On closing out his run, Percy shared, “Fifty issues of Wolverine is a hell of a lot to be thankful for. But the math gets hairier when I do some accounting. I’ve actually been writing Logan — in the audio drama, in X-Force and Wolverine and all the crossovers and spin-off events — for seven years, twenty episodes, and a hundred thirty-ish issues. That’s a whole lot of SNIKT. That’s a big part of my life and career, and I feel nothing but gratitude for the experience. I can’t believe I’ve been lucky enough to serve as the custodian of a character who is so important to me. Thanks, bubs, for joining the mayhem.”

So what’s Wolverine #50 about?

Having masterfully guided Logan over the last few years, Benjamin Percy will also bid farewell to the character in WOLVERINE #50. After closing out Wolverine’s Krakoan age adventures in the main story, Percy will team up with artist Javi Fernández in a special send-off that explores Wolverine’s incredible legacy.

Given the stakes raising Wolverine #48 out today, we’re in for a treat.

Check out the preview below.
