Weapon-X

A single, self-contained 1994 Marvel prestige-format story, Weapon X is the definitive origin of the government's secret mutant-killing program and its most famous subject, Wolverine. Written and painted entirely by the legendary Barry Windsor-Smith, this stark, psychological thriller strips away superheroics to depict the brutal, dehumanizing experiments that transformed a feral man into a living weapon. Its visceral, unforgettable art and grim narrative have made it a landmark in both Wolverine's history and the broader X-Men mythos.
