\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>How are you on this fine Wednesday, or in this case Wolverine Wednesday? \u00a0I am writing this post to tell you about an awesome comic series you should be reading. \u00a0I understand that there are a lot of Wolverine fans out there so I am sure this titles sells pretty well, but I want to speak to all of you whether you get this title or not because I think it is that Awesome! \u00a0The title I speak of is Savage Wolverine. \u00a0This is definitely one book that is worth reading. \u00a0I know there are several Wolverine titles out there including his work with the Avengers and X-men, but Savage Wolverine deals with the time periods between those issues. \u00a0Hell, sometimes the book tells a tale that you may not have known that Logan was involved with.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/66ae3e0895bb484dca3b686d2c260aef.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"

to start off a series. \u00a0In later issues you had a kick ass team-up with Elektra which made your heart race with every turn of the page. \u00a0We have also seen Spider-Man make an appearance or two and just recently Jubilee and Professor X from the X-men made and appearance (event took place way before Civil War and A vs X).\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a

\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Another reason to love the Savage Wolverine series is its attempts to include historic accuracy in the timelines. \u00a0For example, they mention the Dust Bowl, Great Depression, assassination of President Kennedy, St. Valentine&#8217;s Day Massacre, and are currently talking about the Great War (WW I). \u00a0I feel that is important because he helps us remember the important events in life and how things shape up around them.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/STK644070.jpg\"><img

reason to love Savage Wolverine is its use of humor when it is needed. \u00a0You know the one liners or in the case of Spider-Man, site comedy. \u00a0If you haven&#8217;t read any of Savage Wolverine, the Spider-Man reference is shown in the image below. \u00a0Basically, Spidey thinks Logan has some cool stuff and he was caught red handed playing with a sword (Issue #6, if I remember correctly).
