“I Am Lady Mandarin”

In "I Am Lady Mandarin," Wolverine and Jubilee land in Hong Kong to find the city's underworld under new, chilling control—led by a figure who calls herself Lady Mandarin. With Jim Lee's dynamic art and Chris Claremont's sharp storytelling, the issue unfolds as the truth behind this enigmatic ruler begins to surface, setting the stage for a confrontation that blurs loyalty, identity, and the cost of manipulation. The cover by Jim Lee captures the intensity of the moment, perfectly framing the clash between past and present.
