This eagerly anticipated series, spanning four issues, is a direct response to the resounding demand from fans who were captivated by Percy’s initial introduction of this incarnation of Logan in Wolverine #36.

Wolverine’s transformation into the hellfire-infused Hellverine occurred when the demonic entity known as Bagra-ghul descended upon Earth, thrusting Logan and Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze into battle against malevolent forces. However, the situation took a turn when Bagra-ghul possessed Wolverine, giving him his Hellverine form. As Benjamin Percy and Julius Ohta embark on their new series, the pivotal question arises: How will Logan once again assume the mantle and powers of Hellverine, and what path will his hellfire-laden claws tread — one of righteousness or evil?

Logan reassuming the mantle of Hellverine promises to deliver a storyline that is not only entertaining but also undeniably badass, particularly with Percy leading the charge. Yet, what truly heightens the anticipation surrounding the return of Wolverine’s fiery form is the exceptional artwork that awaits. With Ohta, renowned for his immensely talented contributions to the Venom and Alien runs, at the helm, there’s no doubt that he will bring his A-game to this series, crafting some of the most captivating depictions of Hellverine to date.

While the anticipation surrounding Hellverine’s return is undeniable, what truly amps up the excitement is the debut of the all-new Hellfire Warriors. Percy and Ohta have tantalizingly teased only the group name of these enigmatic characters, leaving fans eager for more details. Given Hellverine’s hellfire-infused nature, it’s plausible that the Hellfire Warriors may share a similar fiery essence, potentially comprising other Marvel heroes adopting infernal forms. Imagining characters like Storm embracing a hellfire incarnation of her powers and joining Wolverine adds an extra layer of badassery to the possible future of Hellverine.
