About the series

During Marvel's 2009–2010 run, Dark Wolverine spun a taut, morally complex saga centered on Akihiro, the son of Wolverine, as he stepped into his father's legacy under the shadow of Norman Osborn's Dark Reign. Written primarily by Marjorie Liu and Daniel Way, with kinetic art from Giuseppe Camuncoli, Stephen Segovia, and Mirco Pierfederici, the series explored Akihiro's violent struggle for identity and redemption against a backdrop of shifting alliances with figures like Karla Sofen and Ms. Marvel. It matters as a key chapter in Wolverine's extended family drama, offering a darker, more intimate counterpoint to the era's larger superhero conflicts.
