Plot
Overview[]
Once he was a valued key operative in Canada's special forces. Now the man known only as Logan has been forever transformed into "Weapon X" -- an unstoppable, indestructible killing machine, a bringer of mayhem with retractable harder-than-diamond-steel claws and the ability to recover from any wound.
It has been months since Logan escaped the secret research complex in the Canadian Rockies where he was held captive, breaking through punishing psychological conditioning, slaughtering all those who stood in his way, and fleeing into the wilderness. Now, at the clandestine agency known as Department K, the director of the Weapon X program decides it's time to reclaim the most successful experiment for his group. But before Weapon X is to be brought in, the director opts to present Logan with a few more challenges to see how this modern-day Frankenstein's monster has adapted to its new abilities...and magnifies the intensity of external threat in order to gauge Logan's full potential....Notes
- In this book, the Weapon Plus program is said to have had a rival project called Weapon Null, which attempted to bio-engineer human soldiers into living weapons.
- This book is the official sequel to the earlier Wolverine: Weapon X novel, also by Mark Cerasini.
- Despite its connections, this story is missing from the Wolverine: Weapon X Omnibus collection, which instead gathers Weapon X, Road of Bones and Lifeblood into a single omnibus.
