• A new look at Wolverine’s past!
Fans have been crying out for a MAX take on Wolverine for a long time now, after all, if any character qualifies for the more mature imprint it's surely Logan. Well next week (Oct 24th) we will finally be getting a new ongoing MAX series from writer Jason Starr, with art from Connor Willumson and Roland Boschi as well as covers by Jock. Speaking to
CBR in a recent interview, Starr revealed a little of what we can expect from
Wolverine MAX..
"I definitely looked for a realistic version of Wolverine and not a superhero version. I wanted a down to earth guy who could function in the real world. I wanted to give him a back story that really explains how he's been able to do that for centuries -- to integrate into society. To me, that's what those stories have -- a kind of realistic bent where this stuff could actually be happening. My main story line is about a robbery even though it will include some elements like his claws, healing factor, etc. But you would believe this could all happen in the real world. I really wanted that."
