Synopsis: James Howlett and his best friend Victor Creed abandon mid 19th century Canada to take up arms in the American Civil War, fighting on behalf of the north. Both are blessed with mutant powers and the friends (aka Wolverine and Sabretooth) endure the hell of war unscathed, proving their worth against the Germans in two World Wars before supporting Uncle Sam in Vietnam. This tour of duty leads to a spell in a covert government operation alongside other gifted mutants. Compelled to leave the fold, Wolverine tries to forge a life away from the program but the men in charge refuse to let their prize asset leave without a fight, pitting the hirsute, clawed warrior against his one-time best friend.
