“Happy”

In "Happy," Wolverine gets a surprise he never expected: a real birthday party on the actual date of his birth, sparked by his girlfriend uncovering his long-hidden birth certificate. But as he tries to celebrate, a pair of relentless backwoods brothers have other plans—making for a day that’s equal parts heartfelt and horrifying. Written by Jason Aaron and illustrated by Jefte Palo, with colors by Nathan Fairbairn and letters by Virtual Calligraphy and Cory Petit, the issue’s cover by Paolo Rivera captures the uneasy mix of warmth and danger.
