Welcome to the Wolverine Gallery! It’s an ongoing project, so just click Wolverine Gallery to see everything in this virtual exhibition!

Continuing our glorious mission to document every single fight Wolverine has ever had with a dinosaur, Mars Will Send No More presents this goodie from artist Mike Mignola.

In Wolverine: The Jungle Adventure, Mignola and author Walter Simonson take our favorite reptile-ripping mutant to the Savage Land! Wolverine joins a primitive tribe and totally scores with a curvaceous jungle babe who doesn’t mind posing in her underwear when T. Rex comes to call.

We’re not really sure why Wolverine ever came back from there?!?!

Collector’s Guide:
– From Wolverine: The Jungle Adventure TPB.

Hats off to Marvel for finding fresh ways to sell a gazillion Wolverine stories to today’s newer fans. We’re glad our favorite mutant can keep the lights on at the House of Ideas! But things were simpler before all this “Wolverine Origins” explosion. Part of Wolverine’s appeal was that we did not know all of his past! Bill Mantlo (with artist Sal Buscema) pulled back the veil ever-so-slightly in the first volume of Alpha Flight. We learned a little bit more about how Wolvie got his adamantium skeleton.

For those without photographic recollection of the plot lines, all you need to know is this: James MacDonald “Mac” Hudson was the founder of Alpha Flight. Alpha Flight was the name of a government project to create a Canadian super-team. Logan and Mac were buddies back when the team was coming together. Mac’s wife Heather donned Mac’s costume following his death in Alpha Flight #12. Here, Wolverine and Heather have a heart-to-heart in the forest before they get jumped by a horde of P.O.-ed samurai/ninja creeps.

Collector’s Guide:
– From Alpha Flight #33-34.
