So the most obvious guess turned out to be the right one. But, those who thought that 'Savage' teaser might mean something to do with The Savage Land were also correct, as the story will be set there, and feature Shanna the She-Devil as a supporting character.
Cho spoke to Marvel about his plans for they series, which he first conceived as
"a cool Indiana Jones/Cthulhu type story". He says we will definitely see a more "bloody and savage" Wolverine, but that there will also be some humor there too..
"..The story takes place in the forbidden area of the Savage Land where an evil ancient god slumbers. Wolverine and others accidentally unleash it, while trying to get back home.
..I come from a humor background. I did Liberty Meadows daily newspaper comic strip for five years before I was recruited by Marvel. So you'll see lot of action and humor in this story. This isn't just a solo Wolverine story. It's actually a team-up story with Shanna the She-Devil. Both Wolverine and Shanna have similar assertive personalities. The story is not just a quest to get home; it's a story about surviving each other's company and the Savage Land."
Unfortunately for Ka-Zar fans, Cho says that character won't be appearing, but to keep an eye out for some other staples of The Savage Land - giant apes and dinosaurs. Click on the link below to check out the full interview.
