Wolverine: The Death of Wolverine #[nn]

In a stark, isolated facility, Wendell Rayfield maintains a grim routine: firing a machine gun at a feral mutant trapped in a pit, keeping the man’s healing factor perpetually overwhelmed. His monotonous existence cracks when the man in the pit begins speaking to him—first with grunts, then with words that unsettle the fragile order Wendell has built. The line between captor and captive blurs as silence gives way to something far more dangerous.

In "Logan Dies Part 1," Wolverine is lured into a brutal ambush by a shadowy terrorist cell, forced into a deadly clash with one of their elite operatives. After a devastating explosion leaves him dead to the world, SHIELD recovers his body—only to find his healing factor has restored his flesh, but not his mind. With the line between life and death blurred, a fractured Logan faces a battle he can’t remember, hunted by enemies and haunted by a past he can’t reclaim.

In the aftermath of his final death, Wolverine’s soul remains stranded in limbo, caught in an endless cycle of battle with the angelic Lazaer—his first true defeat. Dr. Strange, aided by Iron Man and Wong, ventures into the afterlife to uncover why Logan’s spirit won’t return, uncovering a haunting truth: the man who never truly died has finally lost.

In "Logan Dies Part 3: Odyssey," Wolverine, guided by Dr. Strange through the shifting realms of purgatory, confronts fractured versions of himself while unraveling the true identities of his foes in the Scimitar group. With the echoes of past battles and the looming presence of Lazaer, Gorgon, Shogun, Phaedra, and The Hand haunting his journey, Logan must piece together the truth before returning to life with a clarity that could change everything.

In the shadowed streets of Tokyo, a wounded Logan pushes through the city’s underbelly, hunting the Scimitar agents who ended his life—Shogun and Phaedra. But as he closes in, the truth twists: the mastermind behind the assault is a man long believed dead, Mariko’s father, Lord Shingen, pulling strings from the dark. With the Hand and ancient vengeance at play, Logan must face a past he thought buried.

In "Logan Dies Part 5: Soul Survivor," Wolverine faces the final reckoning of his long war against death itself, confronting Phaedra—the woman who defies the natural order by resurrecting the fallen—and the dark legacies of Lord Shingen and Shogun. With his soul fully restored by Lazaer, Logan walks free from the afterlife, his healing factor now fragile, knowing the next death may be his last.
