American Update: Wolverine #1 1988 – First ongoing Wolverine series
*Marvel: Response to the Claremont/Miller Wolverine mini-series of 1982 was such that Marvel began working on a Wolverine ongoing title almost immediately, but owing to editorial clashes, the series didn’t actually make its debut until 1988. Chris Claremont continued the scripting chores on the adventures of Marvel’s favourite mutant, now an entrepreneur/crimelord in the rogue nation of Madripoor, with art by the superlative team of John Buscema and Al Williamson. This is a superior NM- pence copy, with only the very lightest of spine stresses (not breaking cover colour) preventing a still higher grade. On sale at £40.
