Now, Marvel is officially celebrating his 50th birthday with several comic mini-series, where he meets old friends like Captain America, old enemies likehis rival Sabretooth, and old frenemies likethe Spirit of Vengeance himself, Ghost Rider.
It’s his friends that are the topic of today’s conversation though, as a new mini-series calledMadripoor Nightswill see the mutant team-up with the patriotic hero Captain America, and the sneaky super-spy Black Widow.
Logan actually has a long history with Captain America, as well as a deep respect for the super-soldier. The pair fought alongside each other during World War 2, and would work as partners on several different occasions afterwards, most notably when Wolverine briefly joined The Avengers.
