Written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Paul Smith, with inks by Bob Wiacek and colors by Glynis Wein, this pivotal story builds toward a storm of betrayal and vengeance—set against a cover by Frank Miller and Joe Rubinstein.

As the experiment unfolds, the process takes a dangerous turn when Logan begins to absorb adamantium in ways no one anticipated.
In the shadowed labs of Weapon X, Professor Thornton grapples with a revelation: his latest test subject, Logan, is a mutant. As the experiment spirals, Logan awakens in a fury, his body betraying him with the sudden, brutal extension of adamantium claws—while Dr. Abraham Cornelius watches, calculating the next move.
In the shadowed halls of the Weapon X facility, Dr. Abraham Cornelius faces a volatile challenge as Logan, driven by rage and instinct, resists control. Professor Thornton reveals the truth behind Logan’s origins—his mutant nature—and the chilling potential he represents as the next evolution of the ultimate weapon.
In the shadowed corridors of a high-security facility, Logan faces a new kind of torment as Professor Thornton initiates a dangerous neural experiment. Through a direct link, visions of violence unfold—Logan confronting his captors in a haze of blood and memory—while Dr. Abraham Cornelius watches, and Carol Hines observes from the edge of the fray.
In "Weapon X: Chapter Seven," Logan [Wolverine] is sent on a remote-controlled mission to confront a bear, testing the limits of his conditioned obedience. When he returns to the facility, the Professor’s control slips—and Logan’s violent instincts begin to take over.
In "Weapon X: Chapter Eight," Logan—still haunted by his past—finds himself caught in a deadly game orchestrated by the shadowy forces behind the Weapon X project.

In the ashes of a collapsing facility, a wounded Logan stumbles through the wreckage, his mind fractured and his senses fading. As the Professor’s plan reaches its climax, Logan’s path crosses with Hines in a final, desperate confrontation—only to be swallowed by fire and memory.
Logan awakens from the Weapon X transformation, disoriented but sharp, as The Professor, Dr. Cornelius, and Hines celebrate what they believe is a flawless mind control scheme—convinced Logan remembers murdering them. But the truth is far from what they’ve programmed. With a mind still his own beneath the scars and memories, Logan slips free from their grasp and vanishes into the wilds of the Canadian wilderness, leaving behind a trap he’s already outsmarted.
In the frozen wilds of Canada, a desperate quest unfolds as Marie Cartier and Georges Baptiste seek to undo the curse that turned Paul Cartier into the Wendigo.

The past is never truly buried when debts demand payment—and some obligations are paid in blood.
In "Scarlet in Glory," Wolverine’s wedding in Japan takes a dramatic turn when the X-Men arrive to celebrate—only for tensions to flare, especially between Wolverine and Rogue.

In "High Tide," Wolverine tracks down his old ally Charlemagne, believing her responsible for the deaths of KGB agents tied to a past mission, leading him to Germany. There, Peter Parker and Ned Leeds arrive to report on the story, unaware that Ned’s life is about to end in a brutal ambush by the KGB.
