Έχει περάσει πολλά στα τριάντα και βάλε χρόνια από τότε που τον δημιούργησε ο Len Wein. Άλλαξε τρομακτικά από την αρχική ιδέα - ο Dave Cockrum κι εγώ τον παραστήσαμε πιο γέρο, κάναμε τα νύχια του από αδαμάντιο, ενώ ο Dave δημιούργησε τα ξεχωριστά χαρακτηριστικά του προσώπου του καθώς και τα μαλλιά. Ο John Byrne κι εγώ ενισχύσαμε την παρουσία του μέσα στους X-Men, ΠPOΛOΓOΣ καθώς σταδιακά (αλλά και αναπόφευκτα) έκλεβε την παράσταση. Ο Frank Miller κι εγώ πήραμε αυτά τα αρχικά στοιχεία του χαρακτήρα του και τα τα εμβαθύναμε, εκπληρώνοντας έτσι τη φιλοδοξία μας να τον καταστήσουμε έναν όλο και περισσότερο τρισδιάστατο και αληθινό χαρακτήρα. Aυτός είναι ο Wolverine -ο “Logan”- που διαλέγω να θυμάμαι. Για μένα, αποτελεί το παράδειγμα της σύγκρουσης που αντιμετωπίζουν όλοι οι X-Men - μόνο που στην περίπτωσή του αυτό έχει φτάσει στο απόλυτο όριο. Aντιμετωπίζει την πανάρχαια μάχη μεταξύ καλού και κακού - όμως δεν είναι μια εξωτερική πρόκληση, είναι εσωτερική, είναι μια πάλη για να καθορίσει τον εαυτό του ως άνθρωπο και, ίσως, ως ήρωα. H πάλη, γι’ αυτόν, είναι να καθορίσει τους στόχους της ζωής του και μετά να δει αν υπάρχουν τρόποι για να τους επιτύχει. O συνεχής πειρασμός γι’ αυτόν είναι αν θα παραδοθεί στη “ζωώδη” πλευρά της φύσης του, ή όχι, και αν θ’ ακολουθήσει τα βήματα του Sabretooth. Yπάρχει ένα μέρος του που θα ήθελε πολύ να παραδοθεί σ’ αυτό το τραγούδι των σειρήνων, όμως εμποδίζεται από το υπόλοιπο που είναι το ίδιο παθιασμένο στην αναζήτησή του να αδράξει την ανθρώπινη φύση του και να ζήσει τη ζωή του σαν άνθρωπος στο μέγιστο βαθμό. Δεν είναι η πιο εύκολη πρόκληση, είναι όμως μία που έχει καθορίσει την ουσία αυτού του ανθρώπου εδώ και δεκαετίες και τον έχει καταστήσει έναν από τους πιο ενδιαφέροντες χαρακτήρες στους X-Men. Eλπίζω να διασκεδάσετε μ’ αυτό το βιβλίο όσο κι εγώ εξιστορώντας αυτές τις ιστορίες τις ζωής του. CHRIS CLAREMONT 8-9 KEΦAΛAIO ENA O Xαρακτήρας του Wolverine ...ΠENTE ΠPAΓMATA ΠOY ΠPEΠEI NA ΓNΩPIZETE ΓIA TON WOLVERINE... 1 Tο πραγματικό όνομα του Wolverine είναι James Howlett, OXI Logan το οποίο ήταν ένα ψευδώνυμο που υιοθέτησε αφού το έσκασε από το πατρικό του. O Thomas Logan ήταν ο επιστάτης στην οικία Howlett, στην Aλμπέρτα του Kαναδά. 2 O Wolverine είναι πάνω από 100 ετών, όμως οι αξιοσημείωτες αναγεννητικές του δυνάμεις τον κάνουν να φαίνεται όπως όταν ήταν στα σαράντα του. 10 3 Tα νύχια του Wolverine είναι κόκαλο, μέρος του ίδιου ...ΠENTE ΠPAΓMATA ΠOY ΠPEΠEI NA του σκελετού, και τα ελέγχει μέσω των μεταλλαγμένων ΓNΩPIZETE ΓIA TON WOLVERINE... δυνάμεών του. Tο άφθαρτο υλικό αδαμάντιο, που έχει συγκολληθεί μαζί τους, αυξάνει την ελαστική τους δύναμη. 4 O Wolverine είναι στην πραγματικότητα πανέξυπνος, όταν θυμώνει όμως μπορεί να πέσει θύμα μιας άγριας και πρωτόγονης λύσσας, πάνω στην οποία δεν έχει κανέναν έλεγχο. 5 Όταν ήταν μικρό αγόρι, ο James Howlett είχε μια φίλη ονόματι Rose, την οποία αργότερα ερωτεύθηκε. Σε μια παράξενη, τραγική τροπή της μοίρας, η Rose κατέληξε νεκρή στα χέρια του, αφού είχε τρυπηθεί κατά λάθος από τα θανάσιμα νύχια του Wolverine. ΓIA NA MAΘETE ΠEPIΣΣOTEPA, ΣYNEXIΣTE THN ANAΓNΩΣH... 11 H IΣTOPIA TOY WOLVERINE “AN ΣT’ AΛHΘEIA ΘEΛEIΣ NA TA BAΛEIΣ ME KAΠOION... ...ΔOKIMAΣE THN TYXH ΣOY ENANTIA... ...στον Wolverine!” O Wolverine μπορεί ν’ αντέξει μια σφαίρα. Mε τη μεγάλη του αντοχή στον πόνο και τη μεταλλαγμένη ικανότητα ίασης έχει αποδείξει πως μπορεί να αψηφήσει όσα πυρομαχικά κι αν αναλωθούν πάνω του. Ωστόσο, όταν πρωτοαναπτυσσόταν ο χαρακτήρας από το συγγραφέα Len Wein και τον καλλιτέχνη Jon Romita Sr, φαινόταν ότι η μεγαλύτερή του δύναμη ήταν το να αποφεύγει τις σφαίρες. H πρώτη σφαίρα ήταν το όνομά του. O Yπεύθυνος Eκδόσεων Roy Thomas αποφάσισε πως το Σύμπαν της Marvel χρειαζόταν ένα χαρακτήρα, οι ρίζες του οποίου θα ήταν φυτεμένες βαθιά στους αγριότοπους του Kαναδά. O Thomas έπαιξε με το όνομα Badger, προτού επιλέξει το Wolverine, μια ιδέα που ανατέθηκε στον Wein για να την αναπτύξει. Όσο ο Wein συνεργαζόταν με τον καλλιτεχνικό διευθυντή, John Romita Sr, ο χαρακτήρας του Wolverine απέφυγε τη δεύτερη σφαίρα του. Mη γνωρίζοντας τίποτα για το υπό μελέτη ζώο, ο Romita νόμιζε πως το Wolverine είναι μία λύκαινα. Eυτυχώς αυτή η παρανόηση ανακαλύφθηκε γρήγορα, όταν ο Romita άρχισε να κάνει έρευνα για το πλάσμα. H τελευταία σφαίρα που απέφυγε με επιτυχία ο Wolverine κατά τη δημιουργία του ήταν η προέλευσή του. Aρχικά ο Wein είχε σκεφτεί τον Wolverine απλώς σαν μια πολύ εξελιγμένη εκδοχή του συνονόματού του ζώου. Παρόλα αυτά, η ιδέα ενός ομιλούντος πλάσματος του δάσους απορρίφθηκε σύντομα και στο χαρακτήρα δόθηκε ένα πιο ρεαλιστικό υπόβαθρο. Tα νύχια του Wolverine είχαν σχεδιαστεί απ’ την αρχή για να μαζεύονται ωστόσο, o Len Wein δεν είχε ποτέ την πρόθεση να αποτελούν τμήμα του ίδιου του σώματός του. Aντίθετα, έβλεπε τα νύχια σαν μέρος των γαντιών του Wolverine, κάτι που απορρίφθηκε από το συγγραφέα Chris Claremont, όταν ο Wolverine έφτασε μέχρι τους X-Men. O Claremont σκέφτηκε πως τα φυσικά νύχια έκαναν το χαρακτήρα αναντικατάστατο. 12 H πρώτη εμφάνιση του Wolverine ήταν στο The Incredible Hulk #180, το οποίο είχε γράψει ο Len Wein και σχεδιάσει ο Herb Trimpe. Στο σύντομο ντεμπούτο του, ο Wolverine πήδηξε στο τελευταίο καρέ του κόμικ δίνοντας στους αναγνώστες μια ιδέα για την τιτάνια μάχη που θα ακολουθούσε στο επόμενο τεύχος, μεταξύ του εαυτού του, του Hulk, και του Wendigo. THE INCREDIBLE HULK #180 (OKTΩBPIOΣ 1974) Len Wein John Romita Sr. Herb Trimpe Διάσημος ως συνδημιουργός του Ένας από τους λίγους αποφοίτους Έχοντας σχεδιάσει όλους σχεδόν Wolverine, καθώς και του σταρ των της Marvel που έφτασαν τη φήμη τους χαρακτήρες της Marvel, ιστοριών τρόμου της DC Comics, τους σε μυθικά επίπεδα, ο John ο καλλιτέχνης Herb Trimpe είναι Swamp Thing, ο Len Wein είχε μια Romita Sr, άφησε για πρώτη φορά κυρίως γνωστός για τη δουλειά εντυπωσιακή καριέρα τόσο στην Marvel, το στίγμα του στον κόσμο των κόμικ του στο The Incredible Hulk.

All of the things that we see on television and read about in books and newspapers are vividly planted in our minds for us to decipher and do with what we will, to our advantage or to our disadvantage. In all of this downloading of exposure to the modern world, we tend to pick out people that we admire, that we wish we could be like, and that we might call our heroes. But how many of them are really worthy of our admiration or of our imitation or exhibit a heroic character that one might call Christ-like? Wouldn’t you want your hero to be an extraordinary person? Heroes can come in all shapes and sizes, are of all ages and kind, and might be living or dead. It is good to have those people in our lives who’ll help us work toward striving to be that better person, to have that better life, and who’ll inspire us to reach the ultimate goals that we seek to accomplish.

  • Wolverine Wikipedia
    Wolverine (character) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Wolverine (born James Howlett[1] and commonly known as Logan) is a fictional character appearing in American Wolverine comic books published by Marvel Comics, mostly associated with the X­Men. Wolverine is a mutant who possesses animal­keen senses, enhanced physical capabilities, and powerful regenerative ability known as a healing factor. He has been depicted variously as a member of the X­Men, Alpha Flight, and the Avengers. The character first appeared in the last panel of The Incredible Hulk #180, with his first full appearance in #181 (cover­dated Nov. 1974). He was created by writer Len Wein and Marvel art director John Romita, Sr., who designed the character, and was first drawn for publication by Herb Trimpe. Wolverine then joined a revamped version of the superhero team the X­Men, where eventually writer Chris Claremont and artist­writer John Byrne would play significant roles in the character's development. Artist Frank Miller collaborated with Claremont and helped to revise the character with a four­part eponymous limited series from September to December 1982 in which Wolverine's catchphrase, "I'm the best there is at what I do, but what I do best isn't very nice", debuted.

C. DEDICATED TO THE ITINERANT METHODIST PREACHERS OF NORTH CAROLINA ; PREFACE The life-story of Ivey, Dow, and Doub must be of con- tinued interest and value to all who appreciate heroic and unselfish service in men whose hearts burn with a master passion for God and humanity. Though separated in time and place and strikingly unlike in personal characteristics and temperament, these men responded to one common impulse. Each one is somewhat typical of a class. George Washington Ivey holds a high place among the golden-hearted who have spent their lives in the obscurity of the country circuit Lorenzo Dow rides well to the front of those gospel mes- sengers whose long journeys carried them to the borders of human habitation; Peter Doub shines as a star of the first magnitude among the sturdy Methodist itin- erants in an age that cared little for men in soft raiment. A prophet's message and a preacher's conscience kept each to his distinctive task on the long^ unbroken jour- ney. Hearts afiame could not rest. The study of the Circuit-Rider of Knightly Soul and of the Sturdy Itinerant has been made by Marion Tim- othy Plyler.
