Raven cofounder Brian Raffel understands the necessity of passion: “We wanted to take Wolverine and make him sing because no one had really done him justice, you know? He’s such a great character and has so much potential; we wanted to show what could really be done.” It may well be another eight years until superhero games make the strides of their theatrical kin, but Raven’s certainly endeavoring to do its part. Origins looks to be a solid step forward for superhero games — and deliver on the potential of a character who’s been so thoroughly engaging in more traditional mediums. May’s turning into a very important month for Wolverine fans — and we’re — ahem — “uncannily” excited to see how it all pans out.

Dead god! I hope this game is a lot of fun, my mouth was watering over this preview. Good find Joel!!

The music on the website is pretty cool too. And I love the Ultimate Alliance games, so I have really high hopes here.
