The X-Men have found a new home in the sunny city of San Francisco , but that doesn't mean everything's fine for Wolverine!  The past catches up with everyone's favorite Canadian Canucklehead once again in Wolverine: Manifest Destiny #1 (of 4), from acclaimed writer Jason Aaron (Wolverine, Ghost Rider) along with rising-star artist Stephen Segovia (Wolverine: Origins), as a bounty is put out on Wolverine's head! Logan 's ex now leads the Triads, gathering four mystical warriors with the power to kill Wolverine-guess he should've stayed in New York ! The snikt is about to hit the fan!

 

Fans and critics couldn't be more pleased with Aaron's return to Wolverine, following his acclaimed "Get Mystique" storyline:

 

"Add Jason Aaron to the list of X-writers returning these characters to what they do best as individuals and ensembles." - Bryant Frattalone of ComicsBulletin.com

 

" Jason Aaron has himself an appropriate niche, telling a solo Wolverine action story that showcases the character's brains as much as his brawn." - James Hunt of ComicBookResources.com

 

"To put it simply, Wolverine is an extremely torn character, and it just so happens that Jason Aaron is outstanding when it comes to writing irresolute characters." - Daniel Crown of IGN.com

 

Setting the stage for major events to come, make sure you pick your copy of Wolverine: Manifest Destiny #1 (of 4), bub!
