Or someone even worse? When Logan discovers that his mystery foe wants him alive, he turns on the offensive. As the hunted becomes the hunter once more, he's determined to die the way he lived. The Wolverine will go out fighting. Collecting Death of Wolverine #1-4.

While it is almost certain not to last, Wolverine is dead! His vaunted healing factor gone, Wolverine's impending doom was hyped for months. The story arcs leading up to the current collection are Wolverine: Three Months to Die Book 1 and Wolverine Volume 2: Three Months to Die Book 2 , so it didn't come as a surprise that Wolverine died--yet it was shocking all the same. This event will shape the Marvel universe for a long time: Wolverine's first appearance was in 1974, and he met his demise in 2014, but I doubt this will be his final appearance!

Charles Soule's Wolverine story was a pleasure. The return to some of the elements from X-Men: Kitty Pryde and Wolverine was smartly done and rewarding for fans of classic Wolverine storytelling. Even with the outcome certain, I kept hoping that Wolverine would have an "out" and escape his fate. The story takes Wolverine to Madripoor and features some of Wolvie's best nemeses such as Sabretooth, Ogun, and Lady Deathstrike.

The artwork throughout this collection is top notch.  The Wolverine in this collection is wounded and without his healing factor. Every SNIKT makes him wince and artist Steve McNiven captures that pain well.  If you're a fan of the X-Men or even just Wolverine, this story is a "must read".
