Podcasting is all the rage of late. You can listen to them while you're doing virtually anything, and you can practically find a topic to suit just about anyone. Recently, several entertainment companies decided to get into the game and release scripted episodes, including Marvel.
Shows like Serial and S-Town had proven that the formula could be fruitful, so Marvel took a chance with one of their most popular characters last year and released a ten episode scripted podcast revolving around the mutant berserker and long time X-Man, Wolverine. Wolverine: The Long Night starred Richard Armitage (The Hobbit) as the title character.
The second season, titled Wolverine: The Lost Trail, will find our hero traveling to New Orleans while discovering his ex, Maureen, is missing, and encountering thieves, biker gangs, and a mutant named Jason Wyngarde, otherwise known as Mastermind.
Check out the trailer below.
Wolverine: The Long Night introduces listeners to a pair of FBI agents as they travel to the remote town of Burns, Alaska, where several people have been killed. Once there, they find Logan / Wolverine, who’s trying to escape civilization as he recovers some of his lost memories, and they suspect he might be connected to the deaths. The series is widely available on all podcast platforms.
Wolverine: The Lost Trail will be released on March 25th for Stitcher Premium, and will be available on all other platforms later in the year.
