Wolverine (Podcast) | comment |
A scripted podcast written by Benjamin Percy and Marvel's first attempt to get into scripted audio dramas since The Fantastic Four audio drama in 1974. Richard Armitage stars as Wolverine in an investigative mystery.The first season, called Wolverine: The Long Night, is set in Alaska, where FBI agents Tad Marshall and Sally Pierce investigate serial killings that have been plaguing the small town of Burns, with Logan as the prime suspect. But as the investigation proceeds, the town reveals its layers as the investigators discover more of Logan, the wealthy Longrock family that seems to run Burns, the mysterious Aurora cult and the local mythology...The second season is called Wolverine: The Lost Trail, bringing Wolverine down to New Orleans where he investigates disappearances with the help of none other than Gambit. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
Wolverine (Podcast) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: The superhero audio drama genre has generally stayed in a more light-hearted and adventure tone (as made famous by the Superman serials that codified the genre). Wolverine: The Long Night is very grim and gritty, approaching themes like drug trafficking and serial killers. This also applies when it comes to mainstream adaptations of Wolverine, as this audio drama is one of the few (alongside Logan) where he's allowed to curse and inflict graphic wounds with his claws. | |

Wolverine (Podcast) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Keeping up with X-men traditions of heavy-handed social allegories, this season features The Cold-Blooded using some very transparent versions of real-life bigot rhetoric. One of the most noticeable allies Logan has is also a drag queen operating out of a gay bar. | |

Wolverine (Podcast) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: As befitting of the noir influences, the ending has a bleakness to it. Logan escapes and some measure of justice is done (with the destruction of the Langrock clan), but Logan himself remains a suicidal mess who is forced to leave town after the events attracted such attention to him. Agent Marshall, the Weapon X operative sympathetic to Logan and the town, ends up being executed in cold blood while trying to protect Wolverine. Hudson Langrock, the serial killer with a trail of bodies in his wake, effectively gets away scott-free to commit more crimes. | |

Bolivian Army Ending: This season has a more ambiguous ending and yet hopeful than the first. Wyngarde is stopped when Logan lobotomizes him, and the people he kidnapped (Marcus, his mother, Gambit and Maureen) included all walk free. Logan makes a deal with Agent Pierce to re-join Weapon X, but not before making sure they won't ever go after Maureen again. The season ends with Logan in Weapon X captivity, acting as a Trojan Prisoner. The last scene of the season is Logan uploading a virus to the Weapon X mainframe and, as Master Mold starts to malfunction, unsheathing his claws and charging headfirst into the Sentinel army, claiming "Weapon X...is officially cancelled!". | |

Wolverine (Podcast) / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: The fact it is an audio drama (and obviously you have no visual of anything) is used to make the violence and horror all the more foreboding and disturbing. In season 1, for example, the monstrous killer all the more foreboding, as you only get vague descriptions and animalistic, ominous noises of his presence. | |

Spotting the Thread: There appears to be some effort (on the part of the culprit) to frame the killings as having been done either by a feral bear or Logan, but as the story progresses several clues start to bring down those possibilities: the animalistic killer displays much more intelligence than a bear is supposed to (and walks on two legs) and is described as being at least six feet tall (when Logan is notoriously small in stature). | |
