Old Man Logan Reading Order

In the Marvel Universe, Wolverine is so popular, there’s more than one! We are not speaking of X-23 today but of Old Man Logan. He is an aged version of Wolverine coming from an alternate future universe where the supervillains overthrew the superheroes, Earth-807128. He is a creation of writer Mark Millar and artist Steve McNiven.

This Old Man Logan – he in fact no longer calls himself Wolverine – was introduced in a storyline published in the regular Wolverine series (in 2008-09) set after the Death of Wolverine story – at that time, X-23 took the Wolverine mantle. His own solo series started later, during the Secret Wars event (reading order here). After that, Old Man Logan came back in the newly rebooted Marvel Universe.

Here is the story: Fifty years from now, Logan will have endured many atrocities: The Marvel Universe’s villains will have banded together and rid the world of its heroes. Logan’s closest friend, Hawkeye, will have been murdered in cold blood right before his eyes. And driven mad by the same radiation that gave him his superhuman strength, Bruce Banner will have fathered a family of hillbilly Hulks…that eventually went on to slaughter Logan’s wife and two children. But now, in the present, Old Man Logan wakes up to discover himself in a world before these atrocities, before the Wasteland. And he’s going to seize this opportunity and change history to ensure that his future never comes to pass…

Once Old Man Logan finds his place in the regular universe, he joined Jeff Lemire’s team of Extraordinary X-Men. Later, he also appeared in X-Men Gold, Weapon X, and Astonishing X-Men. Of course, he also appeared in major events of that time like Civil War II, Inhumans vs X-Men, and Secret Empire. His story ended with the 2018 miniseries Dead Man Logan.
