Wolverine's Origin Book : IS IT OUT YET ?

[Chris Sanders MSX]

Has the wolverien Origin Book come out yet ? And if so i was wondering would anyone mind letting me know something "juicy" from it.

I plan on picking it up but I have no idea if it's out yet as I haven't read a comic in over 3 years. I still read Wizard however and I saw a page from the book and i was like I HAVE to get this book.

Where have you been?! It has waaaaaay been out. It's on issue 5 (of 6).

Nothing really juicy or particularly interesting. Looks like Wolverine is about 110-120 years old.

Issue #6 will be out likely at the end of April. Marvel will be releasing a hardcover edition of the 6 issues sometime in June. And if you want something juicy...well..without giving away any spoilers, he killed his first person at the age of 12. Now get the book - it rocks!

Wait for the hardcover. Unless you're an serious collector who has to have to originals, wait for the hardcover. The current price of the first issue alone is $5 more than the entire hardcover.

Plus ORIGIN #1 is near impossible to find. Even if you can, as kid_flash pointed out, expect to pay at least $30 - 40 dollar for it. Wait a few more months and get the hardcover that features 8 - 12 pages of extra material like sketches, original treatments, etc...

Thanks I guess I will wait for the hard cover. Like is aid i haven't really read a comic since 6th grade so I'm really out of the loop.

And I ALWAYS knew Wolvie was in his 100's a few years back like in 1994 Marvel released a book telling you stuff you didn't know about the X-Men and one of things it says was Wolveriene was like 98 or something..so I just counted the years to now.

I'll have to check that out. Not a big Wolvie fan, but it sounds like a good read.
