Wolverine Origin #1

In "null," Rose arrives at the Howlett estate to care for the ailing James Howlett, a boy caught between a jovial father, a troubled mother, and a cruel grandfather. With James and his loyal dog—son of the estate’s drunken groundskeeper Thomas Logan—she finds unlikely friendship and quiet rebellion in the shadow of privilege and decay.

In the shadowed halls of the Howlett estate, a young James grapples with betrayal and rage as old wounds resurface. When Dog's cruelty toward Rose sparks a violent chain of events, James is thrust into a deadly confrontation that awakens something far older than his own fury. As secrets unravel and blood stains the manor’s floors, the line between justice and vengeance begins to blur.

In the haunting story "null," James Howlett—now known as Logan—grapples with the violent truth of his past after killing Thomas Logan, his father’s murderer, his hands now pierced with bone claws. Haunted by his mother’s rejection and her tragic end, he flees with Rose, who shields him from the world as they journey toward a distant mining camp, her concern growing with each passing mile. As James struggles to understand the strange changes in his body and mind, the weight of his new identity begins to take hold.
