WOLVERINE SHARPENS HIS CLAWS

UPDATE: THR has since changed their story to state that it was only announced at Cine Expo, so this may not be rushed for 2007 after all. Either way, it looks like Wolverine is still slowly entering a solo berserker rage. Did Fox learn a valuable lesson after dragging their feet for so long getting … Continue reading
