| Description: | Marvel Comics's most complex and captivating antihero Wolverine is paradoxically the most deviant yet humane of all mutants. From his greatest triumphs to his most disheartening downfalls, through loves and losses, victories and defeats, Untamed delivers, for the first time, the psychological exploration of a myth, a purposeful creation, a modern legend. Wolverine. Logan. Weapon X. By any name, Marvel Comic''s savage, brooding antihero is, in his own words, the best at what he does--killing with gratuitous precision. Paradoxically violent yet humane, the beer-swilling, cigar-smoking mutant with retractable claws is universally misjudged in the Marvel Universe yet esteemed by fans worldwide. The author explores Wolverine''s development from bit character to modern legend over more than four decades, with a focus on his enduring appeal as an allegory for resilience through torment. |
