Wolverine: Netsuke #1

In "Netsuke Part 1," Wolverine is drawn to the Yashida family home in Japan by the lingering presence of Mariko, where a small netsuke—a traditional toggle used to fasten a purse or container—ushers him into a vivid, unexpected journey through Feudal Japan, thrusting him into the midst of a battle that feels all too real. Written and illustrated entirely by George Pratt, this issue blends intimate mystery with historical spectacle, as the cover by Pratt captures the eerie, otherworldly moment of transition with striking precision.
