Wolverine (1988 1st Series) 150A CBCS 9.8 Skroce

Paper: White

Label #20-2C1A2CC-023

White cover; green sidebar to the right thet reads "Revolution" THE SCOOP: A bold new era for the X-Men begins! THE STORY: "Blood Debt." The next chapter in Wolverine's life starts in this double-sized extravaganza! While old friends return to Wolverine's life, some brand-new?and decidedly vicious?enemies make their move! It's been six months since the war with Apocalypse, the return of his adamantium, the taking of his free will and the heartrending sacrifice. Now, as Logan grapples with the emotional repercussions, a new evil arises that targets his very heart! Who is Lord Haan, and how might his vile bloodline consume Wolverine? Plus: What are Silver Samurai and Yukio doing back in Logan's life? THE CREATORS: Starting with this double-sized issue, Steve Skroce takes over as both writer and penciler. Steve is best known for his kinetic art on AMAZING SPIDER- MAN and GAMBIT and for his work as storyboard artist for the hit movie, The Matrix. Skroce's thoughts on Wolverine: "He's a man with a shady past that's still torn between his animal and his human sides. I want to explore that without walking too much on worn territory. I want to focus less on the one-liners and more on the quiet beats between events." Inks by Lary Stucker. Skroce cover. THE FORMAT: 48 pages, with ads. Cover price $2.99.

Cover by Salvador Larroca. Written by Chris Claremont. Penciled by Salvador Larroca. Humanity is at a crossroads, and will choose a future of glory... or of utter annihilation. The path they face was mapped a century ago by the blind mutant seer known as Destiny, and recorded in her 13 volumes of The Books of Truth. As seen in X-MEN #109, one volume has come into the possession of Professor X's charges and now Rogue, Beast, Bishop, Thunderbird, Psylocke, Sage (an all-new character) and Storm choose to leave the safety of the X-Mansion and search for the missing volumes. But what they don't know is that another force is embarked on the same quest, a man who is the first manifestation of the true homo sapiens superior the rightful inheritors of Earth and he considers mutants his mortal enemies... to be killed on sight! Cover price $2.99.
