The first Wolverine: Origin book was weird. Set in the 19th century, Wolverine was given the name James Howlett and made to be a sickly young lad whose family were wealthy landowners. Through a series of bizarre events, James and his childhood best friend Rose run off together and struggle to survive in Canadian mining towns.
Through another sequence of bonkers events, James – or Logan as he’s now known – is left alone, goes a bit mad, and runs off into the Canadian forests to run with the wolves. The end!

It was an origin story that didn’t make Wolverine more interesting as a character, nor did it tell a very interesting or original story, and in fact took away his mystique – there’s a reason why we never know Joker’s origins,...
