Wolverine #1 (1988) CGC 7.0 – First Ongoing Series

“At last—in his own monthly series!” Wolverine stands with claws extended above a heap of fallen opponents on the cover of his first ongoing series. The dark setting, pale moon and torn costume give the opening issue a gritty, battle-worn presentation, while the orange masthead adds a bold contrast.

Published by Marvel Comics in November 1988, Wolverine #1 launches the character’s monthly solo title. The CGC label identifies “First Wolverine as Patch” and credits John Buscema’s art, connecting this opening issue to a distinctive chapter of Logan’s solo adventures.
