Features Wolverine back when he was working for Department H! So I figured that I would post this in the "news" section. Its pretty sweet actually. It recounts the whole "Wolverine Vs. Hulk" thing and he talks about how he wanted Heather to get rid of the whiskers on his cowl. Its also drawn old school. It took me back to the good old days! ...Before I was born.

It looks to me like this could be a way for Marvel to subversively promote Omega Flight! (And its a fun story.)

It actually annoyed me, "I hate Canada", what the hell was that? Also Wolverine directly stated Alpha Flight was a good idea, and they should continue doing what they do. Yet he makes it seem here like they were pointless, and Wolverine has directly stated on multiple occasions he still feels he is Canadian, hell he roots for the Toronto Maple Leafs

I did like the "dream" scene of the U.Hulk vs. U.Wolverine rip scene

X-Men Deadly Genesis #1 shows an annoyed Wolverine who was pulled away from the Leafs game on tv.

I remember a Weapon X - Team 7 crossover where Wolvie mentions the Habs. Maybe he just watches whatever team is on the CBC that night :wink:

Could be, one of his minis was called "Wolverine: Son of Canada" after all.

I believe he was being sarcastic. (Jeph Loeb usually bombs in his attempts at humour, Wolverine just ended up sounding like Ben Grimm) His Canadianess has been played up alot lately. The fact that alot of bad stuff has happened up in Canada might have caused him to say this thoug. I wouldn't mind a statement from Jeph Loeb on the issue anyway. I still liked the issue though.

As for his nationality, I think he wears two hats:

Sorry it was a one-shot

Blaastar was the main villian and Hulk, Wolverine, Spider-Man and somone else had to work together to free all the heroes.

An item is worth what soemone is willing to pay. Even if a store is selling it for $150, if no one's buying, it really isn't worth that much!
