Presented for the first time in North America: an amazing tale by two of Europe's top creators, starring one of the world's most popular super heroes! While on holiday in Brazil, the X-Man known as Wolverine has his motorcycle stolen by a group of young boys — one of whom has a secret. When a brutal gang kidnaps the boy, Logan sets off on a quest to find him — leading to a deadly encounter with a corrupt faith healer who may not be what he appears! WOLVERINE: SAUDADE is a vicious saga of bloody revenge as only Wolverine can deliver! Date Available: 09/10/2008 REVIEW by Brian Fisher  Hey, kids, ever wanted to see Wolverine swear? I know I have. In this mature readers take on Wolvie, we find him on holiday in Brazil, investigating the emergence of a new mutant. What he finds is a street kid exploiting his new gift for monetary gain, a miracle healer whose powers may not be that miraculous and a gang war that he gets himself stuck in the middle of. What we get is a violent story of life in the barrio and the kill-or-be-killed mentality that comes along with it. Originally published in Europe, Saudade is a perfect example of Wolverine done right. The story is heartfelt and honest and the artwork is top notch. I don’t usually recommend Wolverine stories, but when one comes along as good as this one it’s hard not to. I give it 8 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINTWritten by JEAN-DAVID MORVAN
