While Wolverine has led an exceptionally violent comic book career from the very beginning, his early battles with the likes of the Incredible Hulk still pale in comparison to the horrors he has faced in the years since. Wolverine has just experienced what may very well be the most gruesome event of his entire life, all thanks to none other than his worst enemy. Worse still, this is just the latest in a long line of moments that have come to define the relationship between Wolverine and Sabretooth, and what comes next isn’t going to be any better.As the titular hero of Wolverine #41 (by Victor LaValle, Benjamin Percy, Geoff Shaw, Cory Smith, Oren Junior, Alex Sinclair, and VC’s Cory Petit) makes his rounds across the Arctic hideaway known as Krakoa North, a decidedly less friendly figure is preparing to get the lay of the land for himself. Not only has Sabretooth led his army of variants in one attack on Krakoa where they killed Quentin Quire, he has now led them through the frozen tundra of the North Pole for an even more gruesome assault. By the time the villains are finished, all that remains of Wolverine’s allies, including his son Akihiro, are a pile of body parts spelling out precisely the kind of birthday message Logan has come to expect from his old enemy, and it could be the last that Sabretooth ever gets the chance to leave behind.Unsurprisingly, all it took was a single tragedy for Team X to be disbanded, and with it any hope that Sabretooth had of being more than a villain. Then again, the idea of Sabretooth finding true redemption was always a long shot when stacked up against the character’s wider, bloodier history as a whole. While he and Logan were indeed friends with one another during their time with Team X, that chapter in their lives was never going to set any sort of precedent for their futures, especially not when so many of their prior encounters were already rooted in death and destruction. If anything, it was the first encounter between the two that set the tone for their relationship for nearly the entirety of the rest of their lives, not to mention the most brutal annual tradition that any pair of Marvel characters have ever been a part of.
