Things to know
- LaValle’s two miniseries form a connected prison and escape story. The final Creed hook continues in the separately authored Wolverine: Sabretooth War.
- The much larger Sabretooth War omnibus would append Wolverine #41–50. That is a different content choice, not an equivalent format upgrade.
