Just as the killing blow seems inevitable, the real Wolverine arrives, stepping in to protect his wayward son—setting the stage for a clash of legacy, vengeance, and identity. Cover by Simone Bianchi and Andrea Silvestri.

Daken battles Franken-Castle through the sewers of Tokyo and, once he learns that a Bloodstone is powering Frank's patchwork body, redoubles his efforts so he can rip the stone out for himself. Thanks to his new modifications and undead status, Franken-Castle gets the drop on Daken and prepares to return the favor of killing the man who hacked him to pieces and forced him into his current frankenstein like state. Just as he is about to drop the killing blow, however, the real Wolverine shows up and takes issue with someone trying to murder his wayward son.
