UXM 38 & 39
Wolverine is all face on this cover. This was one of Finch’s early weaknesses, he drew people’s heads too small, like there wasn’t enough room in their skull for a brain. I…
UXM 36 & 37

The last of this blog’s 25th Anniversary covers. We’re treated to another issue by Rick Leonardi this month, now inked by Bob Layton with Nel Yomtov on colors. We open on Flash…
