Owner's Description
Here it is, the book that ended my youthful boycott of the Wolverine title after what I still consider to this day to be the travesty that is the events of X-Men 25.
Anyhow, one fine day in the fall of 2000, I took a walk across the train tracks from work to my local comic shop and picked up a gold foil edition from the back issue box. I asked the owner what was up with the storyline lately, and he kindly informed me that the adamantium had returned. So...
Apocalypse? Wolverine, Horseman of Death? Adamantium? Let it begin anew...
As for this particular book, I'd originally bought it as a Universal 9.8 many moons ago. As time passed however, I eventually found myself in a quandry -- no Signature Series copy of 145 gold, and no Erik Larsen signature on any of my other 145 covers.
So, once Mr. Larsen popped up on the guest line-up for Mike Carbo's Big Apple Con, I figured it was time to once again roll the dice. Once again, the dice giveth. The man who wrote a very pivotal story in my comic journey signed this book on 3/5/2016, and it returned to me an SS 9.8.
