About this Collection

This volume collects the Wolverine stories from the initial issues of the 2005 Marvel Comics Presents series, featuring the feral mutant in solo adventures that highlight his savage nature and complex past. The collection includes tales by various creative teams, offering a mix of action and character-driven narratives from the early 2000s Wolverine run.

In "Save the Tiger Part 1: The Good Guy," Wolverine and Jessan emerge from a perilous escape, returning to the lawless streets of Madripoor just as a power struggle erupts. With Roche's forces closing in, they confront a new threat: the enigmatic crime lord Tyger and her mutant enforcer, while uncovering a dangerous mix-up that’s left O'Donnell in captivity. Written by Chris Claremont and brought to life with dynamic art by John Buscema, inks by Klaus Janson, and colors by Glynis Oliver, this gripping start features a striking cover by Walt Simonson.
