Wolverine is one of the best characters ever created in fiction. I blew it by not coming up with the idea first.

  X-Men  
My thoughts on this series as a whole have not entirely been formed yet, at least not so far as I would feel comfortable making them public. But anyway, I highly doubt that you came here to read what it is that I may or may not have thought.

Blowback
Beast wakes up in an ambulance along with Rogue, Gambit, and Jubilee. They manage to break free, but can\’t stop a second ambulance that they believe is carrying away Wolverine. At the War Room in Xavier\‘s Mansion, Forge picks up a signal from Cerebro that a new mutant signature has been detected. Cyclops, Psylocke, and Colossus go to find the source of the signature. Colossus and Cyclops arrive in enough time to stop the other ambulance from getting away, but the Hand causes it to explode. In the debris they find Wolverine\’s mask, but they know it\’s a red herring, trying to lead them in the wrong direction and they head back to the mansion. In a briefing, the X-men decide that the Gold team will head to help Emma Frost at the Hellfire Club, while the Blue team will go after Wolverine. Beast finds that the airplane carrying the new mutant signature was headed towards Berlin. At Fenris\’ secret lab in Berlin Wolverine is being held hostage while Dr. Cornelius examines his memories to find what Logan, Victor Creed and Maverick have done with the Carbonadium Synthesizer they had stolen thirty years ago from this same lab. Meanwhile Maverick is watching all this from the ventilation system and shuts down the lights in the facility, giving Wolverine the chance to break free. He quickly disposes of most of the guards, leaving only him and Omega Red standing. Wolverine knows that he would not win, so he runs from the fight and jumps out a window and drops ten stories down where Maverick rescues him. Meanwhile the Blue team breaks into the facility to try to save Wolverine. In Malibu Lila Cheney, tries to get Dazzler to remember her life with the X-Men. Suddenly Longshot arrives, hunted by Spiral, who is trying to take him back to Mojo and Lila teleports away with her friends.

The Camel's Back
The X-teams defeat the entire MLF, but have casualties among their own. Boomer\’s jaw is broken, and Rogue is blinded by Strobe. At the mansion, Beast and Moira have no idea how to save Xavier from the techno-organic virus that is ravaging his body. In Newfoundland, Cable convinces Bishop and Wolverine that he might not be responsible for the assassination, and so they team up. Elsewhere, Stryfe toys around with the captive Jean and Scott and accuses them of having been bad parents. Later, Stryfe travels to Egypt where he runs into the Dark Riders. He easily defeats them and then confronts Apocalypse.

Conflicting Cathexes
The X-teams make their way to Stryfe\’s lunar base and defeat all his minions. Meanwhile, Stryfe leaves the base with Scott and Jean to finish “it.“ The heroes split up to search for them, and Logan and Betsy trace them to the door they left by. Opening the seal, they find the vacuum of space, but are able to close the hatch in time. Cannonball, Cable, Havok and Polaris use the spaceship to scout the lunar surface and find a mysterious tower. A forcefield around it allows only Havok and Cable to pass; the others are knocked out. Stryfe welcomes his “failed brother“. Apocalypse wanders off and has to face the Dark Riders, who try to kill him. On earth Xavier wakes up, free of the techno-organic virus; he perceives images of some of the events on the moon.
