Book Synopsis

The devastating aftermath of Wolverine's death -- and his remarkable return from the grave!

Logan is dead -- but what will happen to his mortal remains, encased in Adamantium? The battle for control of this valuable artifact has begun -- with Mystique, Mister Sinister, Daken, X-23, Sabretooth and Lady Deathstrike among the players in this deadly game! But just as the X-Men finally come to terms with Wolverine's death, a shocking revelation reopens old wounds -- and an epic quest begins across the Marvel Universe. But who will solve the puzzle first? Will it be Daredevil, Misty Knight and their crack squad of investigators? Or Logan's fellow New Avengers: Iron Man, Spider-Man, Jessica Jones and Luke Cage? The upshot is that Logan is alive! But how? Why? And how has this chilling experience changed him? Wolverine awakens in a destroyed lab, his memories fragmented, his claws burning hot and his identity in doubt. Can he handle the truth of what he's done? Now that Logan has risen, how far can he fall? And does he have...an Infinity Stone?!

About the Author

Based in Brooklyn, New York, Charles Soule has written novels, comics, screenplays and stories of all types. Also a musician and an attorney, Soule somehow finds time to be one of the busiest writers in comics. Among his Marvel credits are Thunderbolts, She-Hulk and the landmark Death of Wolverine, as well as its immediate follow-up (Wolverines) and its eventual sequel (Return of Wolverine). Soule brought his legal expertise to the pages of Daredevil and assembled a blockbuster squad in Astonishing X-Men. Following solo series starring Darth Vader, Lando Calrissian and Poe Dameron, Soule turned his attention to the iconic rebel crew in a new volume of the flagship Star Wars title, and he was one of the select group of authors chosen to chart the unseen era of the High Republic.

Artist Steve McNiven parlayed a chance trip to San Diego Comic-Con into a position at CrossGen Comics, where he quickly earned a regular assignment on Meridian. When CrossGen ceased publishing, McNiven moved on to Marvel Knights 4 with writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa. Next, he joined Warren Ellis on Ultimate Secret. In 2006, McNiven and Mark Millar shattered the Marvel Universe's status quo in Civil War. His next assignments included Brian Michael Bendis' New Avengers and the initial story arc of Amazing Spider-Man's "Brand New Day" era. McNiven and Millar reteamed for "Old Man Logan" in Wolverine and the creator-owned Nemesis, published under the Marvel Icon imprint. With Ed Brubaker, McNiven helped relaunch Captain America; his later Marvel work includes Guardians of the Galaxy with Bendis and Uncanny Avengers with Rick Remender. McNiven cemented his reputation as one of the all-time great Wolverine artists on the climactic series Death of Wolverine.

Artist Declan Shalvey cut his teeth in the UK small-press scene and soon gained mainstream attention for his work on 28 Days Later. Shortly afterward, he made his Marvel debut on Thunderbolts, followed by well-loved arcs on both Venom and Deadpool. He went on to illustrate the critically acclaimed Moon Knight relaunch with writer Warren Ellis; the pair again collaborated on the creator-owned Injection for Image Comics. Hugely in demand for his covers, Shalvey resides in his native Ireland.

Artist Juan Doe has brought a fresh style and skill to spare to Marvel Comics. After his trendsetting debut work on the covers for X-Men: The 198, Doe went on to interior work with a trilogy of Fantastic Four one-shots set in Puerto Rico.
