Waffe X

In 2018, Panini Deutschland launched Waffe X, a compact five-issue series that reimagined the Weapon X program through a distinctly German lens. The story focuses on a covert military project to create a super-soldier, blending classic Marvel mutant lore with a gritty, European espionage aesthetic. While the series draws on the legacy of characters like Wolverine, it carves its own identity by exploring the moral and psychological costs of state-sanctioned experimentation. A notable entry in Panini’s publishing line, Waffe X stands as a tight, self-contained thriller that adds a unique geopolitical layer to the Weapon X mythos.
