COMICS: Get Your First Look At Logan's New "Hot Claws" In This RETURN OF WOLVERINE Preview
Some new preview pages for Charles Soule and Steve McNiven's Return of Wolverine #1 are now online, and they give us a first glimpse of the iconic mutant unsheathing his new white-hot claws. Check it out.
Wolverine is coming back, and he's bringing a set of new, while-hot claws with him.
When fans found out that Ol' Canucklehead would be sporting this upgrade the reaction was decidedly mixed. However, during an interview with CBR, writer Charles Soule revealed that this new feature won't be a huge part of the Return of Wolverine story, while also acknowledging that a lot of people thought it sounded like "the dumbest idea ever."
"It’s been fun to see the reaction of the fans to that idea – that Logan’s claws might, under certain circumstances, get incredibly hot, a la metal on a blacksmith’s forge,” Soul said of the fan response to the "Hot Claws". “Some people can’t wait to see how they come into the story, and others think it’s the dumbest idea ever (which I get). I mean, Logan’s claws can already cut through anything… why do they need to do this too? I guess we’ll all find out together."
Check out some preview pages and the solicitation for Return of Wolverine #1 below which feature Logan demonstrating his new ability.
