Wolverine #1 was inevitable as a solo turn for Wolverine after the Canadian mutant became the break-out star of the revamped X-Men back in the 1970s. Marvel still took their time in making the book a true event. Fans were already excited to see beloved X-Men scribe Chris Claremont writing the Limited Series, and then Marvel announced Frank Miller would join the book as penciller and co-plotter — with Miller already in the midst of his own run as the creative force behind a revitalized X-MenDaredevil.

This acclaimed first issue includes the 1st appearance of female ninja Yukio, as well as Logan's 1st utterance of, "I'm the best there is at what I do..." The book also sent Wolverine to Japan for a modern-day noir that further liberated the hero from traditional superhero settings. From here, the character would continue an offbeat path that would make Wolverine the inevitable face of serious super-hero cinema. The character's continuing pop-culture impact was once again confirmed in 2024, with Deadpool & Wolverine breaking box-office records (including the record for the highest-grossing X-Men film).
