WOLVERINE & JUBILEE #1 (OF 4) | |
---|---|
MARVEL COMICS Written by Kathryn Immonen Art by PHIL NOTO Cover by NIMIT MALAVIA Variant Cover by NIMIT MALAVIA STRAIGHT OUT OF THE PAGES OF X-MEN AND RIGHT INTO THE JUGULAR! Jubilee is about as far away from the ideal X-Man as it is possible for a 17-year-old minty fresh vampire to be. While the X-Men try to find a way to give her as normal a life as is inhumanly feasible, her decidedly abnormal vampire cravings will not be denied. Between that and her newfound powers, she's winning the fights but not the popularity contests among most of the other X-Kids. Most...but not all. And just when Jubilee starts to think that there is no place for her anywhere, a group of vampire women make her an offer she can't refuse. It seems like the perfect solution...unless Wolverine has anything to say about it! 32 PGS./Rated T+ |
