To celebrate Logan's return to theaters this summer, Marvel Comics is unleashing a massive hardcover collection called Wolverine: Adamantium Collection that pairs together 720 pages and 16 pounds of essential Wolverine comics in a deluxe oversized hardcover with a slipcase (think DC's Absolute format) and a bunch of supplemental material.
The stories included in the Adamantium Collection are:
- Wolverine: Origin by Paul Jenkins and Adam Kubert
- Wolverine: Weapon X by Barry Windsor Smith
- Wolverine by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller
- Wolverine: Not Dead Yet by Warren Ellis and Leinil Yu
- Wolverine & The X-Men by Jason Aaron and Chris Bachalo
- And unforgettable single issue stories by Larry Hama, Mark Millar, Dave Cockrum, Jim Lee and Kaare Andrews!
" Wolverine is the Clint Eastwood of comic book characters, an enigmatic loner with a sin-riddled past that he's desperate to atone for, even if he won't outright admit it,” explained Axel Alonso, Editor In Chief, Marvel Entertainment. “With such a rich history, fans of the character are in for a real treat, because even if they’ve read all the stories before, with the ‘Adamantium Collection’ – they’ve never read them like this!"
“We have never compiled a collection as massive in terms of page count, size AND weight, so fans better prepare their coffee tables and bookshelves for this one,” said Ruwan Jayatilleke, Associate Publisher, Marvel Entertainment. “With this collection, we’re giving fans the ultimate collection, the ultimate collectible and ultimate guide to one of the most popular characters in comics today!”
The book will retail for a hefty $200 and include a free digital copy through the Marvel Comics app. It's available for pre-order now from your local comic book shop, and will go on sale June 5.
