Wolverine. Logan. Weapon X: by any name you choose an anti-social
savage that kills with gratuitous precision, a self-identified
assassin who by his own words IS the best at what he does,
regardless of what he does not being very nice. Marvel Comics's
most complex and captivating antihero Wolverine is paradoxically
the most deviant yet humane of all mutants. Rejected by the balance
of mankind ludicrously termed humanity, experimented on by his own
corrupt government, universally misjudged yet esteemed by his
myriad fans, this beer-loving and cigar-smoking Canadian character
has steadily ascended in popularity since his first appearance in
the last panel of The Incredible Hulk #180. Wolverine's uniquely
amalgamated psyche of man and mutant, reveals in many ways our own
human complexities and contradictions. His journey is a
thought-provoking, indeed inspiring reminder of our own
transformational power of resiliency through trial and torment.
From his greatest triumphs to his most disheartening downfalls,
through loves and losses, victories and defeats, Untamed delivers,
for the first time, the psychological exploration of a myth, a
purposeful creation, a modern legend that peels the layers of why
this legend rises to the level of allegory, and why we ascribe to a
current pulp antihero the status of time-honored parable.
