DescriptionAll the Wolverines GatheredThis was a gift from my partner’s parents for the holidays during 2020. They knew I had recently started the amazing hobby of collecting comic art and they wanted to get me a page. When I was hunting for a page, I came across this really odd but beautiful piece. It was a nice stamp in time for the Laura Kinney character as the All New Wolverine. It featured all the current incarnations of Wolverine at this time (since the original Logan was currently dead); the All-New Wolverine (Laura Kinney formerly X23, clone of Logan), Old Man Logan (time displaced Logan), Daken (son of Logan), and the newest incarnation of Wolverine, Honey Badger (Gabby Kinney, clone of X23 Laura Kinney). This page also hit hard for the emotional reasons, when comics and real life converge. Years before the COVID Pandemic, this series dealt with a highly contagious pandemic of their own. Everyone in a quarantined city was dying after a space craft landed carrying a transformative and deadly disease. The only cure for the disease was the mutants with healing factors letting the corrosive disease leech onto their body and they could take the effect away from those dying. So all the healers gathered together to help wherever they could. Taylor’s story with Kirk’s art and Hamscher’s inks compliment each-other so well. This page features a very exhausted group of “Wolverines” doing all they can to help the humans that would normally hate and fear them. The newly featured character Honey Badger (currently known as Scout in the New Mutants series) is desperately trying to revive a person that has died, asking why it isn’t working when she tries to take on the disease. She is gently told that it’s too late for these people and they need to move on (see the colored published page for the tender dialogue that is rarely seen from the Wolverine Clan). It’s these tender moments and character family drama that I really enjoy and tend to revisit; which tends to be forefront in the lives of the X. Social/Sharing |

Incredible reminder that a heroic deed may not lead to success. In defeat, a hero remains.

I too love Kirk's art and Taylor's writing :)
(But I find that Hamscher was a strange choice for inking him).

Fabulous page! Love all the characters Kirk manages to include and Hamscher's inks are appropriately dark and dramatic! Great pick-up!

Great gift for sure! Emotive piece, to say the least. Gotta appreciate when comics and art can really make you FEEL something - good, bad, all of it. Nice example of that here, James. Congrats!

Kudos, James, for the excellent description! I love tender moments in comic book stories as well. In fact, I like them far more than fight sequences because the tender stuff has far more emotional gravitas and therefore the ability to pull me into the story. Wonderful page!
