Wolverine by Claremont and Miller #[nn]

Wolverine returns to Japan, drawn by a painful reunion with Mariko Yashida, now married to another man, and soon finds himself locked in a brutal duel with her father, Lord Shingen. As the fight unfolds, the stakes rise beyond pride—honor, legacy, and the weight of a past that refuses to stay buried.

In "Debts and Obligations," Wolverine is drawn into a deadly web of loyalty and betrayal when he rescues Mariko Yashida from a performance of lethal Kabuki assassins. With Yukio serving Lord Shingen and the shadowy Hand tightening their grip, Mariko is torn between her past and the man she once knew—now a wilder, more dangerous force than she ever imagined.

In "Scarlet in Glory," Wolverine’s wedding in Japan quickly turns tense as the X-Men arrive, bringing their usual mix of camaraderie and friction—especially with Rogue’s presence. With the Silver Samurai prowling the shadows and Viper slipping through the shadows, Mariko’s secret ties to her father’s criminal past come to light, forcing Storm and Yukio into a desperate rescue. When the X-Men are poisoned, Wolverine’s resolve hardens, and with Rogue determined to stand beside him, the hunt for the Silver Samurai begins.
