Capullo also opened up about the creative process behind Wolverine: Revenge, most notably that he and writer Jonathan Hickman have been “working in the way that I was trained: Marvel’s plot style.” Capullo explained, “Jonathan affords me a lot of room to break things down in a way that feels right to me. Most of the dialogue is crafted after he sees the pages I’ve turned in. It’s very freeing. I feel that this is some of my best work in years as a result.”
Wolverine: Revenge introduces readers to a version of the Marvel Universe with little to no technology. This shift came after Magneto’s space-bound fortress, Asteroid M, crashed in Canada. The blast destroyed much of North America. Worse still, the ensuing electromagnetic pulse similarly wiped out nearly all technology, leaving the Avengers and their allies with a lack of resources to gather information and fight back against the various threats that have risen in the wake of Asteroid M’s fall.

Wolverine
Wolverine first appeared in The Incredible Hulk #180, where he battled the Jade Giant to a standstill, before joining Marvel’s X-Men in 1975. Since then, the short-tempered berserker with unbreakable claws has proven himself as one of Marvel’s most popular characters. The mutant hero was also the backbone of the X-Men film franchise, which ran from 2000 to 2020, and critics consider his solo film, Logan, one of the best superhero movies ever made.
Known as an unstoppable tank who can cut through anything, Wolverine isn’t technically one of Marvel’s most powerful heroes but he’s one of the deadliest characters on their roster. Even villains like Magneto and the Juggernaut have learned to be wary of Wolverine’s claws.
