Wolverine: First Class

Set during Wolverine's early years with the X-Men, this Marvel series from 2008–2010 pairs the gruff mutant with Kitty Pryde for a series of adventures that blend action with a lighter, mentor-student dynamic. Written primarily by Fred Van Lente and Peter David, with art by Salva Espín, Ronan Cliquet, and Francis Portela, the 21-issue run offers a more accessible, character-driven take on Logan’s past alongside teammates like Colossus. It’s a fond look back at the formative days of a fan-favorite partnership.
