Hiya, Chuck! You can fool some of the people all of the time, but you can’t f%#$ with Wolverine’s sense of smell. He is the bullshit detector of the Marvel Universe, sniffing out aliens, robots, holograms, phantoms, fake costumes, and psychic projections. This is a Jim Lee panel we like so much that we cut it out and put it on the wall.
Collector’s Guide: from X-men #1; Marvel, 1991.

Travis Charest draws Wolverine and Zealot taking on the daemonites from the WildC.A.T.s series. Only here, the nasty aliens inhabit the bodies of Nazis in the 1940s. Aliens masterminding the Third Reich may not be the most original science fiction idea, but Charest and Scott Lobdell make it a solidly entertaining tale in the vein of Indiana Jones. Cool Jim Lee cover, too!
Image and Marvel made four WildC.A.T.s X-Men crossovers: Golden Age, Silver Age, Modern Age, and Dark Age, each with a different creative team. The first three also came in 3-D, and look pretty awesome.
In these pre-adamantium days, Wolverine doesn’t pop his claws. He opts for strapping some nasty hardware to his wrists, even though we’d seen four years earlier in Fatal Attractions that the claws were part of him. In these carefree days before Wolverine’s past became laid bare by Origins, he is also shown going by the name Logan in WW2 — not James Howlett. But don’t worry. You don’t need to be a continuity expert to kick back and enjoy this story! You can enjoy the first 1/3 in our gallery below.
Collector’s Guide: From WildC.A.T.s X-Men The Golden Age #1; Image/Marvel, 1997. Also available in 3-D. Reprinted in Wildcats/X-Men TPB #1.

After becoming a fan favorite for his work on X-men, Jim Lee helped found Image Comics in 1992. He began work on his own super-team, the WildC.A.T.s. Jim unleashed his artistic creativity on numerous mind-blowing splash pages, double splashes, and four-page fold-outs. This week we’ll take a look at some of our favorites!

Welcome to the Wolverine Gallery! It’s an ongoing project, so just click Wolverine Gallery to see everything in this virtual exhibition!
Collector’s Guide: From the interior of the back cover of Wolverine #50. It’s the one with the cool “ripped” cover that looks like a manila file folder with claw marks in it. Yes, they really put holes in the cover – you can see the first page through it!
Dig Jim Lee? So do we. Click Jim Lee if you don’t believe us. We have some sweet posters and wrap-around covers from his X-men days.

Marvel did a reprint of good old X-Men #1, but with the four separate covers as one complete wrap-around. It’s been re-colored as well, and on high-quality paper. The inside cover (pictured here) is a second poster, and Jim Lee drew a number of additional two-page spreads for the interior. The coolest one is the one with all the villains.

Yes, we found a copy in our top-secret 50-cent bin, and took the staples out and everything before taping it to the office wall. Maybe you don’t want to obsess that hard, but you can view the magic right here and at least right-click to make it your desktop for the day. The inside cover is a second poster, and Jim Lee drew a number of additional two-page spreads for the interior. The coolest one is the one with all the villains.

Uncanny X-Men #275 featured an awesome three-page fold-out wrap-around cover. Today’s post features that cover — and let me tell you, it wasn’t easy, what with my scanner only being big enough for one page at a time. So take advantage of my hard work, click on the image, blow it up to relish the detail, and set it as your desktop background.
Uncanny X-Men #275 sets the artistic high water mark for the team of Chris Claremont and Jim Lee. Very soon, their take on Marvel’s mutants would earn X-Men #1 the record of highest sales for any one comic book, ever. The records still stands.

Jim Lee‘s take on the Fantastic Four wasn’t our favorite. But you gotta admit: Brett Booth draws a mean statue of Galactus. Throw in some dinosaurs and guys on fire rampaging through space, and you’ve got our attention for twenty-eight pages.
