Ever wondered where Wolverine comes from? I certainly did as I used the cartoons but being so remotely located in NZ didn't follow the comics too closely. So this be the best back story ever as it delves into the distant past where young Logan tries to survive the flu under the watchful eye of his brother Victor. After a tragedy at home both boys run away from home and find they are immortal. They live through every war and battle, even get executed several of times just for the thrill. After a couple of hundred years like this Logan tires of this but his brother Victor wants to continue. In the Vietnam war a bitter fight separates both. Logan volunteers for an experiment where a special alloy gets grafted over his bones. Only he can survive the transplant much to the chagrin of his brother Victor. The ‘Island’ houses experiments and captured mutants. Believing his wife got murdered by his brother Victor, Logan seeks to find the ‘island’ to destroy it and deal with his brother once and for all.
