The present-day part of the issue keeps interrupting those memories with the people around Patch. Jessica Drew and Lindsay McCabe are there. Jessica is concerned about him, but he isn't exactly giving her the whole explanation. Then other t...
The chase afterward is particularly nasty. Logan gets away and pushes himself through the wilderness. He climbs a cliff even though he's exhausted. When he reaches the top, Sabretooth is already there. Logan has put everything into getting...
In the memory we're shown, Logan finds Silver Fox dead and carries her into the bar. Sabretooth admits what he's done and keeps provoking him. Logan goes after him, and Creed beats the hell out of him. I'm keeping this to the way #10 presen...
We already went through Sabretooth's early defeats and how much more threatening he becomes in the Mutant Massacre. Wolverine #10 gets into another part of it: what this guy has done to Logan personally. The story is called "24 Hours." Loga...
The rest of #139 matters to that change too. Kitty is joining, Storm is taking charge after Scott leaves, and the team is still dealing with Jean's death. Wolverine and Nightcrawler head to Canada so Logan can try to straighten things out w...
Then X-Men #139 gives him the brown-and-tan costume. The shoulder pieces and the stripes from the yellow outfit are gone. You've still got the pointed mask, the boots, the exposed arms and the same short, heavily built guy underneath it. It...
By #127, Wolverine is badly shaken. Scott notices and deliberately starts a fight with him. He insults him, gets him angry and gets him moving again. Kurt and Storm get pulled into it too. Scott is taking a hell of a risk. Logan is furious,...
In X-Men #126, Logan and Nightcrawler are tracking Proteus. Logan can follow the distinctive scent associated with the bodies he's been using. Then they encounter a police officer, and Logan notices something wrong with the scent situation...
There are a couple of things from Wolverine's earlier X-Men issues that deserve more attention than they got in the first thread. Especially the Proteus fight and the change to the brown costume. The Proteus story gives you a good look at h...
Warlock keeps helping the team after Doug is gone. Then X-Tinction Agenda puts him in Genosha, where Cameron Hodge wants to take his shapeshifting ability for himself. Being transported through Pipeline has left Warlock dangerously depleted...
Doug's death is where Warlock's difficulty understanding humans stops being funny. In New Mutants #64, he takes Doug's body and tries to bring him back. From his perspective, giving somebody energy is how you help when they're depleted. He...
The Magus eventually catches up with him, and Warlock can't just keep running. The fight goes through Limbo and into space, with the Magus infecting what he touches and threatening far more than his own son. By New Mutants #50, he's powerfu...
By New Mutants #21, Doug helps establish communication with him, and Rahne helps him recharge. Once the team can understand him, he becomes their friend and a student rather than just a strange thing loose in the mansion. A lot of the humor...
Warlock first appears in New Mutants #18, and the basic reason he's running is pretty straightforward: his father expects them to fight to the death. That's how the Technarchy works. Warlock doesn't want to kill his father, and he doesn't w...
That catches up with him in New Mutants #60. On the Ani-Mator's island, Doug steps in front of a shot meant for Rahne and is killed. It's a gunshot. After alien threats, magic and everything else this team has survived, that's what kills hi...
Being close to Warlock also has risks. Doug starts having nightmares about being changed by the transmode virus and becoming something like Warlock himself. He's getting protection from a friend whose biology can transform other living thin...
New Mutants #35 makes Doug's position pretty clear. Magneto doesn't want him in combat because he doesn't have an offensive power. Doug ends up working the Danger Room controls instead. And sure, there's an obvious reason an adult would be...
Warlock's arrival gives Doug a job nobody else can do nearly as well. In New Mutants #21, the team is dealing with an alien they can't properly communicate with. Doug helps them understand him, and the situation changes once they're able to...
