X-MEN #132: What That Famous WOLVERINE Sewer Panel REALLY Should Have Looked Like
SUNDAY FUNNIES WITH KERRY CALLEN! So, y’know that famous panel at the end of 1980’s The X-Men #132, where Wolverine is in a sewer all growly, vowing to kick some Hellfire Club ass the next issue (which would become his star turn)?
