More amazing and unexpected was that this freshly announced series, entitled Wolverines, doesn’t actually feature the Wolverine we all know and love.

Oct 14th
Before New York Comic Con started last week we shared some of Marvel’s many teasers for upcoming series and storylines they intended to publish come 2014 and announce at the show.
