  2. A Look Back at Wolverine #50 (1992)

    Welcome back, superhero enthusiasts, 1990s culture enthusiasts, X-Men fans and comic book collectors! Today we revisit the Marvel Comics universe to examine one of the many tales of the Wolverine monthly series.  

    Before I start the review, I have to say out loud that the very woke and shameless game developer Insomniac Games ruined the superhero icon in the new Wolverine game on PlayStation 5. They inserted woke and homosexual elements into the game. That said, Insomniac Games never intended to make a Wolverine game that was fun and accurate to the source material. I urge you fans of X-Men and Wolverine to BOYCOTT the Wolverine PlayStation 5 video game!

    Times like these, it is best to go back to reading the comic books published from the 1970s to the 1990s that featured Wolverine.

    With those details laid down, here is a look back at Wolverine #50, published by Marvel Comics in 1992 with a story written by Larry Hama and drawn by Marc Silverstri.

    The cover.

    Early story

    The story begins with Wolverine forcibly going up a New York City skyscraper with his motorcycle. It turns out that S.H.I.E.L.D.’s Helicarrier is secretly floating by the top of the building and Wolverine – who caused a lot of disturbance along the way – used his motorcycle to leave on to the floating structure. Wolverine crashes through the Helicarrier’s window and makes his way to Colonel Nick Fury. Wolverine tells him that he is aware about El Tigre and Emilio Garra’s activities in Cuba and he wants him to hand over his security dossier.

    Minutes after Fury makes a call to secure the dossier, pawns of Hydra inside a building nearby gets alerted and retrieves from the National Security Agency (NSA) files of S.H.I.E.L.D. that have not been pulled in over twenty years.

    The next day in Washington, D.C., Wolverine arrives at the office of the Department of Agriculture wanting to talk to Professor Thornton who is behind the closed door of his office…

    Quality

    A barrage of images from Wolverine’s memories drawn in great detail by Marc Silvestri.

    The best way to describe this particular story of Wolverine is that it is a mystery and suspense tale (with a touch of political intrigue) told in the form of a superhero tale. More notably, this one reconnects to Wolverine’s past with Weapon X and it strong emphasizes the sinister nature of Weapon X and how is ruined the memories and lives of its living objects (including Wolverine and Silver Fox).

    As many fans are already aware, it was during the Weapon X project when Logan was held against his will, got heavily experimented on and had Adamantium installed into his skeleton (note: the sharp Adamantium claws were installed on Logan).

    In this comic book, Larry Hama went further with the mysteries by focusing on the memories Wolverine remembers and how the people behind Weapon X cleverly staged scenes (complete with physical sets, props and movie cameras) and implanted false memories into their minds by having neuro-synthetic implants placed in the cerebral vortex.

    The X-Men led by Professor X bring Wolverine to Canada where the Weapon X warehouse is located at.

    That said, this comic book explores moments from Wolverine’s past which will challenge readers to think if such moments are real or somehow fabricated. Considering Wolverine’s legacy as an aged superhuman who could not figure out his own personal history, this tale offers readers a cerebral reading experience that is truly one of a kind.   

    Of course, this comic book would not be complete with action scenes of the icon. Wolverine’s battle with Shiva is indeed action-packed and Marc Silvestri’s art style made it look dynamic and gritty at the same time. I should state that the action did not happen in a random fashion. Instead, the action happened within the context of the story complete with moments of intrigue and revelations (note: pay close attention to the dialogue and other details during the action scenes).

    Conclusion

    This page’s message is clear: never mess with the tough and rough Wolverine.

    Wolverine #50 (1992) is indeed a very compelling read and it still is a great, standalone Wolverine tale to follow from start to finish. The story has a good amount of intelligence, mystery, political intrigue and twists carefully blended. In my experience, the tension gradually built up as Wolverine’s quest for answers and the truth went on. I can also say the payoffs are rewarding. More notably, this old comic book will make you think deeply about Wolverine and his past, and how Weapon X violated him to the point of ruining his memory. This comic book could also make you sympathetic towards the tough and violent Marvel icon in ways that other forms of media (notably the movies) could not.

    Overall, Wolverine $50 (1992) is highly recommended!

  4. Marvel Ultimate Alliance with Perry Constantine (Superhero Cinephiles, Japan on Film)

    This week on play comics we ask ourselves what happens if you you can’t decide what you want to make a game about. Should you just give up? Should you really dig into your soul and decide what you’re super passionate about? Should you look and see if there’s any other related media coming out that you can tie this game into? Or should you act like you’re at the end of five different boxes of sugary cereal and justice dump the mall into a single bowl and see what happens?

    There’s certainly one thing that I made my mind up about this one, and that’s how Perry Constantine from Superhero Cinephiles and Japan on Film needed to come by and help me make sure that I kept everything straight here. And it’s a good thing too because with more playable character than I want to count spread out across 7 consoles upon release and a few more as back catalogs were taken advantage of it would have been really easy to miss something here.

    So was there an actual story for this game? Or was it just a giant excuse to squeeze in as many tidbits as they could so the other kids would think they’re cool? You’ll have to listen to find out!

    Learn such things as:

    • Is it possible to have too many characters to pick from?
    • What happens when there’s an actually good original story?
    • Are there any deep cuts that didn’t make it into this one?
    • And so much more!

  6. #DatoCurioso

    ¿Sabían que, aunque S.H.I.E.L.D. y su director Nick Fury son pilares de la ficción geopolítica de Marvel, sus orígenes y capacidades tienen espejos tangibles —y a veces más asombrosos— en las agencias de inteligencia reales?

    En los cómics (debut en 1965), S.H.I.E.L.D. nace como una respuesta a la necesidad de una vigilancia global tecnológicamente avanzada. En la realidad, su contraparte más cercana no es solo la CIA, sino la NSA (Agencia de Seguridad Nacional) de EE. UU. y el GCHQ británico, quienes operan bajo el marco de la alianza "Five Eyes" (Cinco Ojos). Esta red, establecida tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, comparte inteligencia de señales a nivel global de una forma que la "interconectividad" de S.H.I.E.L.D. apenas llega a sugerir.

    • El Helicarrier vs. El Proyecto Cloud:
      Mientras que Fury dirige desde un portaaviones volador, la inteligencia actual opera desde la "nube" y cables submarinos. El programa PRISM, revelado en 2013, demostró que la capacidad de interceptar comunicaciones globales en tiempo real no requiere de una base física imponente, sino de algoritmos de procesamiento de datos que superan la ficción del "Proyecto Insight" de las películas.

    • Nick Fury y la figura del "Spy Master":
      La personalidad de Fury —un estratega que opera en las sombras y oculta información incluso a sus aliados— recuerda a figuras históricas como Sir Francis Walsingham, el jefe de espías de Isabel I, o James Jesus Angleton, el paranoico pero brillante jefe de contrainteligencia de la CIA durante la Guerra Fría. Al igual que Fury, Angleton creía en la existencia de "topos" profundos (similares a la infiltración de HYDRA) y construyó una arquitectura de secretismo que definía la realidad según sus propios datos.

    La transición entre el riesgo del espionaje humano (HUMINT) y el dominio de la inteligencia técnica (SIGINT) es el verdadero puente donde la ficción de Marvel y la realidad de las agencias modernas convergen.

  12. Card 063: Nick Fury

    After Dirty Harry.

    Probably my fav Nick Fury card yet. Given that his most visually interesting aspects (eyepatch, gray temples, cigar) are all on his face, doing a closeup makes a lot of sense.
