X-Men: Codename Wolverine
![]() |
The Dealiest Mission, The Dealiest Women |
Wolverine,
Sabretooth, Silver Fox, Wraith, Maverick. Together they were Team X, the best covert-ops
team NATO had to offer. But a mission to retrieve a disk from a pair of Soviet
agents proved to be more trouble than they bargained for. A Soviet operative codenamed
Black Widow, a mutant Interpol agent Sean Cassidy and a shape-changing freelance spy
Mystique were also after the disk. Years later, Wolverine is a valued member of the Uncanny X-Men. The Black Widow defected and became a respected American superhero. Cassidy is Banshee, mentor to the next generation of young mutants. Mystique and Sabretooth have their own agendas. Wraith is still a covert-ops agent. Silver Fox is dead and Maverick is dying of the Legacy Virus. Each of them is kidnapped, one by one, starting with Sabretooth , by far the dealiest member of the former Team X. Wolverine must find out the terrible secret from that old mission, a secret that has remained hidden for years and could spell the death for all of them. Written by Christopher Golden, the bestselling author of the X-Men: Mutant Empire Trilogy, with cover art by Luis Royo and interior art by Darick Robertson. |
