Written by Chris Claremont with art by Frank Miller, marks the first solo comic dedicated to Wolverine. In this issue, Logan travels to Japan, only to discover that his beloved Mariko Yashida has been forced into an arranged marriage by her powerful crime-lord father. Torn between his love for Mariko and his struggle with inner rage, Wolverine faces betrayal, heartbreak, and deadly battles that test both his warrior’s skill and his humanity. This iconic debut sets the stage for one of Marvel’s most defining character arcs, exploring Wolverine as more than just a member of the X-Men—showcasing him as a lone, conflicted hero.
