Wolverine: Weapon X Deluxe Edition by Barry Windsor-Smith
WOLVERINE: WEAPON X is the character-defining origin of the man known only as Logan. Written, illustrated and colored by auteur creator and master storyteller Barry Windsor-Smith, it is undeniably one of the greatest Wolverine stories ever told. After being taken hostage by an experimental Canadian military science outfit, Logan is transformed into Weapon X, an unstoppable killing machine with an indestructible Adamantium skeleton and razor-sharp claws. But Weapon X cannot be contained by his captors -- and trapped in their lab with the monster they have made, they will face his feral wrath It's a psychedelic horror story in the mold of Frankenstein, restored from original art and print sources for this stunning deluxe edition COLLECTING: Marvel Comics Presents (1988) 72-84, Uncanny X-Men (1981) 205, material from Wolverine (1988) 166In 1969, Barry Windsor-Smith began his career as a typical Marvel artist, drawing core Marvel characters such as the X-Men and Daredevil. But, when he began illustrating the Conan series in 1971, he defied Marvel's formula, turning heads with a fresh and controversial creative approach and won multiple industry accolades. Windsor-Smith was part of a new generation of painters that included fellow countrymen Berni Wrightson, Mike Kaluta, and Jeff Jones, and he went on to forge his own way. He created, wrote, and illustrated three separate series in the 1990s: The Freebooters, Young Gods, and The Paradox-Man. Opus volumes 1 and 2, autobiographical coffee table art books, were released by Fantagraphics in 1999 and 2001.
Monsters is his first novel since 2005's The Freebooters. He is currently based in New York City.
