Road To ‘Armageddon’ Begins In Chip Zdarsky’s ‘Wolverine: Weapons Of Armageddon’

Marvel is promising big things for the upcoming summer 2026 event Armageddon. And while we’ve known that seeds will be planted in Chip Zdarsky’s run on Captain America, it seems he’s leaving seed all over the place, as the publisher has announced a four-issue miniseries titled Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon.

“The Road to Armageddon starts with super soldiers, starts with the Weapon X program. And Wolverine is going to kick off the end of everything,” Zdarsky teased via press release. “For readers of Captain America, this is essential! For readers who want to know where the Marvel Universe is going, same. I’m pretty thrilled to get to tell this massive story, starting in Cap and really kicking it off here in WOLVERINE: WEAPONS OF ARMAGEDDON!”

Alongside art by Luca Maresca, the series will find Wolverine tracking down “the latest victim of a new superhuman experimentation program.” Unfortunately, he’s a little late — and that victim has a strange power at their command.

“People often ask me who my favorite character is to draw, and my answer is always the same: Spider-Man and Wolverine,” Maresca added. “I love drawing Wolverine in action, capturing his expressions, but I also love drawing Logan and giving him all the nuances of his tormented soul. What makes it even better is working with Chip Zdarsky, who I got to know and love during his run on Daredevil with Marco Checchetto.”

Wolverine: Weapons of Armageddon #1 hits stores on February 18, 2026. Check out the synopsis, solicit info, and covers by Leinil Francis Yu, Zdarsky, and Inhyuk Lee below.

ARMAGEDDON STRIKES THE MARVEL UNIVERSE!

When an old acquaintance drags Logan into the search for a new abducted mutant subject, the terrifying methods of the defunct Weapon X program are revealed to be alive and well. As Wolverine follows the scent of the feral Tyler – and the scent of his own trauma – he finds himself in a deadly race against a super-soldier-creating corporation called PRIMEWARRIOR…which has just hired a very familiar face: the fully armed and upgraded NUKE!
