These photo-edits below may not have turned out the best but while I was creating them it got me thinking… if the studios were ever to introduce a mask or a suit for Hugh in The Wolverine, it would be really interesting if they incorporated some elements of a samurai warriors face guard to the overall look as a way of Logan paying homage to the lessons he learnt and the people that that helped changed his life while in Japan. (“The Samurai had a code of honor called bushido. This warrior code called for honor, loyalty, and bravery”)
Within the comic universe, Wolverines’ experiences in Japan affected him immensely and contributed to the depth of his character. I think introducing a mask in context of these connections could be a fascinating approach to bring his well-known mask or a suit into the cinematic universe in a real and grounded way.
Just some thoughts…
Thanks for popping by and having a gander guys, this was my first article here at CBM so I do apologies if it’s not up to scratch. Although I’m a long time visitor here this was my first time at submitting something other then comments and photoplasties - CorronZenith30
