Please makes sure you check out the guidelines, especially steps 4, 6 & 10. (Everyone misses it).
That said. Looks like you’ve got a nice start here. Nothing really comes to mind to add…I have mapped the Wolverine Origins series, search the site for it.
I hope the changes I just made are more to the guidelines. I will add the next few planned volumes later today.
I am kind of stuck on Vol. 5 and 6 because issue 113 changes over to the smaller books and 112 is regular sized but part of the story continued in 113. I decided to have 112 trimmed to match the smaller profile. I used the 1/2, ’95 to try and make vol. 5 closer to the other volumes in size. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Yeah the size change is something that can be hard to work through…I have a MAX series like that. But you don’t have to match the size of the other binds.
Did you not want to include the Loeb/Bianchi issues of Wolverine where Sabretooth bites it? I know it isn’t stellar but it looks like you’re trying to go for the complete run in your volumes. You also don’t have to squeeze Wolverine Origins in here if you don’t want to, you can create a separate post for that and link to it.
It’s crazy how hard it is to find Incredible Hulk 8…I refuse to pay $20 for it…
What series and issues are you talking about Sabretooth? I put the origins in here because yours is great I just have my own take on it. Also I got the hulk #8 for $9
Wolverine 50-56, I just wanted to make sure you knew about the issues. Romulus makes an appearance too.

I didn’t realize that it had anything to do with the origins series. I somehow completely missed that on your map when I read through it. Thanks for the tip.
I just updated the map again as I have been going through the issues to prepare them for binding. Some of the X-Men and Uncanny stuff may not be right as I do not have those issues yet. I’m not going for a complete bind really just enough that all the notes throughout the main books are covered.
If you’re trying to include X-Men titles then you’ve got to include X-Men 4-6(?)…first appearance of Omega Red and possibly Maverick. It fits right after the story that starts in Wolverine #50.
Thanks for the tip, I will have to think about including them.
The Maverick back ups in X-Men 10-11 also lead up to his appearance in the mid 60s of Wolverine. Plus those issues return Wolvy to the Mojoverse. He actually says something about “Not Again” in either the X-Men issues or the Wolverine issues in the mid 50s or 60s.
After prepping the issues I have been able to eliminate 1 volume due to using several TPBs.
