Brian is first and foremost a nerd in every way shape and form. He likes to compare himself to a black hole, consuming any and every form of entertainment unlucky enough to get caught in his gravitational pull. It's not uncommon on any given day for him to read a couple comics, settle down with a good book, watch a few movies inside and out of the theater , catch up on his ever growing but never depleting streaming queue, challenge himself with a few good video games, and of course, write his heart out.
He spends every waking moment dreaming up interesting and intriguing concepts and ideas that will hopefully one day inspire and entertain anyone looking for an escape from their daily lives. Graduating from Full Sail University in good old humid Florida, Brian currently lives and works in New York City and lives for the day when all he has to do is wake up and create something unique and new for people to enjoy.
Young Amiko was entrusted to Wolverine's fiancee, Mariko Yashida, who was soon assassinated by the Hand, and Amiko was placed in the foster care system. After several years, Wolverine entrusted her to the ronin Yukio and later the Silver Samurai, who would both care for and train her as a ninja. Although she doesn't have powers, as the last descendant of the Shosei Clan, Amiko is destined to become the future Mystical Guardian of Japan, which will inevitably grant her great aptitude with magic.
First appearing in "X-Men: Alpha" 1, Mariko Yashida is the daughter of influential crime boss Shingen Harada and the step-sister of the Silver Samurai, who serves as her bodyguard. It's not long before she lands herself in trouble with a rival Yakuza gang, after sabotaging the games in their VR arcades and in retaliation the Yakuza gang attempt to kidnap her, but thanks to the intervention of Wolverine they fail.
Logan and Mariko then begin a whirlwind romance, but unlike on Earth, instead of being assassinated, Mariko becomes pregnant with Logan's child.
The comics offer two different versions of this event, on Earth Mariko gives birth to Kirika see next item , but on Earth, she gives birth to Brian and Mari, who first appear in "Mutant X" In this issue, the children have grown up without their father, who has stayed away from them for their own protection, but it isn't long before Sabretooth comes to call, hoping to use the children to lure Wolverine back into the Weapon X program. Born on Earth, Kirika was conceived when Wolverine met and fell in love with her mother Mariko whilst visiting Japan.
As a child, Kirika grew up hearing stories of her father, hoping that one day he would return, but unfortunately she was captured by Nathaniel Essex, Apocalypse's first horsemen on Earth For years Kirika remained in his lab, held in a vat labelled "X At her request, he bonded her skeleton with adamantium; once she had joined the X-Men, he tasked her with bringing Wolverine back to the team. Her mission succeeded and it wasn't long before father and daughter began to bond.
Tragically, Earth's Wolverine became Weapon Omega in order to save the world from aliens, lost his mind and then vaporized his daughter in "Uncanny X-Force " At the same time, Earth's Wolverine was visiting Earth with his X-Men and when he found her charred remains, he was less than pleased.
After the devastating events of the miniseries "Ultimatum," which saw most of the original X-Men killed by Magneto and his cronies, including ripping the adamantium from Wolverine's bones, a new team of X-Men emerge in the "Ultimate X" series. In "Ultimate X" 1, we meet Jimmy Hudson, son of town sheriff James Hudson, whose powers manifest in public when his mangled body begins healing instantly after a car wreck.
He returns home to find Kitty Pryde, one of the last surviving X-Men, waiting for him with a box of Wolverine's things, including a holographic message from Logan that says he is Jimmy's real father.
Jimmy's life is then thrown into disarray as he tracks down other mutants, including Jean Grey, and is nearly killed by Sabretooth, who wishes to kill him as a substitute for the deceased Wolverine. Jimmy possesses all of his father's abilities as well as a mysterious power that enables him to coat his claws in organic metal. There was a time when Wolverine did manage to settle down and have a family, but unfortunately he chose to do it in a dystopian future ruled by the Hulk Gang, the degenerate descendants of the Hulk, who took control of California and sired abominable children with his cousin She-Hulk.
Three of these ogres turn up at Old Man Logan's farm at the beginning of the self-titled miniseries, demanding that he pay rent. Logan is behind on his payments and receives a beating in front of his family, which he gracefully accepts because he has renounced violence.
In order to make enough money for rent, Logan is forced to embark on a long journey with Hawkeye, but upon his return he discovers that his entire family has been murdered by the Hulk Gang because they got bored. He then repays the favor by murdering all of them, including Bruce Banner, who attempts to eat him alive. After "Secret Wars," Logan travels back in time somehow to kill the Hulk and stop these events from ever happening.
That doesn't go according to plan, as can be seen in the ongoing series, "Old Man Logan. First appearing in "What If? Five hundred years into the future, Earth is dying, so Hulk Jr. But before it can be used, Galactus arrives to consume the planet, only to be defeated by the heroes who then use him to power the device. While there, he encounters Kouen, a boy who seems to be another clone of Wolverine, possessing many of the same features and abilities as Logan himself.
It's eventually revealed that the boy was created by mysterious scientists who believed Logan to the missing link needed to create a master race. For unknown reasons, they initially send the boy to kill Logan not sure why they thought this would work out but Kouen ends up siding with Wolverine to take out those hunting him. Together, they search for a way off the planet and Wolverine begins to bond with his "son," who helps him to destroy the other imperfect clones that they discover in a shady lab in issue It's implied that Kouen won't live for long due to his adamantium bonded skeleton restricting his bones from growing to full size.
We saved the best for last, and this one is a real tearjerker. Wolverine has had countless enemies and excluding the Hulk Gang, none have hurt him quite as much as the Red Right Hand. The baby survived the incident, possibly due to his mutant healing factor, which he inherited from his father.
Romulus left the baby on the doorstep of Akihira and Natsumi , a wealthy, young and traditional Japanese couple. They took the child's arrival as an answer to their prayers and raised him as their own.
As Akihiro grew up, he was often teased by the other children of the town. This harsh treatment and his adoptive mother's indifference toward him caused Akihiro to develop a very cold persona to all except his adoptive father. One night, Natsumi confessed to Akihira that she didn't love their adopted son and that, after years of trying to conceive, she was pregnant. Akihiro overheard this and felt his position in the household to be threatened.
In , after the birth of the baby, Junichiro , Akihiro confronted his mother, telling her that he had killed her son. When Akihira found out he disowned Akihiro, taking him into the forest behind their home and telling him to leave and never return. Daken furiously responded that "Akihiro" was not his true name. Natsumi then appeared, running at Daken and trying to kill him with a rifle's bayonet. The attack caused Daken's claws to extend reflexively, and with a flail of his arm, he accidentally slashed Natsumi through the chest, killing her.
Unable to force himself to harm his son, Akihira instead committed suicide with the discarded rifle. Romulus then appeared to the boy for the first time since infancy, saying that he was what Daken would someday become. In , Romulus sent Daken to a boot camp in Canada ruled by Frederick Hudson , the same camp where Wolverine had first trained more than forty years earlier. Daken was also trained by the same man as his father, Silas Burr.
Burr trained Daken for nine months before Daken disappeared one night. While two search parties were sent out to find him, Daken, at the behest of Romulus, reappeared in the camp and killed every man there before confronting Frederick Hudson and Silas Burr.
Daken killed Frederick Hudson with his claws and then confronted Burr, during their fight, Daken attacked with not only his claws but also his power to ramp up and manipulate his own pheromones, using the ability to make Burr so giddy that he started laughing, confusing him and allowing Daken to draw first blood.
Burr, however, quickly recovered, punching Daken across the room with so much force that he believed for a moment to have killed him. Daken got back to his feet after Burr turned away, holding a revolver which had been dropped by the last man he'd killed. Daken fired three shots into Burr's back and then prepared to fire one into his head, but Romulus appeared and stopped him, telling Daken that he had plans for Burr.
Romulus then decided to bond the indestructible metal called Adamantium to Burr's skin, Burr survived the surgery and became known as Cyber years later. He believed they lived an entire life together until he woke up and realized Carl's mutant dream powers allowed him to live a lifetime in one night.
After the one night stand he never saw Carl again until his resurrection on Krakoa. In , Romulus revealed to Daken that his father was still alive, but lied at the same time, telling Daken that it was Wolverine who had killed Itsu in an attempt to prevent Daken from being born, because he feared what Daken would become. This lie sowed a seed of vengeance in Daken that Romulus continued to feed in the following decades.
After this revelation, Daken discovered that a strange man wanted to have his revenge on Wolverine, after being wronged by him in the past. Daken decided to help this man and joined his criminal organization: The Red Right Hand. It was also on this day that Daken saw his father possibly for the first time. Daken knew that they wouldn't stand a chance against Wolverine but having his father killing them would hurt him in the worst way possible. Those children would later become collectively known as the Mongrels.
In modern times, Daken finally met Wolverine face to face for the first time, after Wolverine was captured by the S. He deemed him weak, he then slashed him across the stomach, killing him temporarily and leaving him to bleed on the floor, as his mother had been left many years before.
Daken's action also "aided" his father in escaping from S. Daken next arrived in Berlin at the home of a woman he had been been playing as a patsy. He led her to believe that he had been cheating on her with a man that he was actually just planning to kill for a passport. Knowing that she would drink an entire bottle of burgundy which they had purchased together, Daken secretly poisoned it with sleeping pills, making it appear that she had committed suicide as he stated that she was a footprint he was erasing.
While walking through the streets of Potsdam, Germany , Daken was contacted by an anonymous messenger who reminded him of his displeased master's "ultimate goal". Daken dispatched the messenger in anger that he was being prevented from having the opportunity to confront his father on open ground as his master had promised him. Later he was on a train to Brussels , watching his father in a nearby stolen car. He then received a phone call from an unknown "friend", who was actually Daken's former combat instructor Cyber.
Cyber confirmed his father's destination. After "helping" him escaped from S. The fight was interrupted however, by Cyber. He challenged Daken, his finest student, to combat in hopes Daken would take him to his supposed "master". Losing the fight due to Cyber's superior strength and being impervious to harm, Daken fled, leaving his father and his former instructor to deal with each other. Later, on a train through Eastern Europe, Daken was tortured by his cousin Victor Hudson through continuous whipping with a gasoline soaked rope, while Wild Child delivered a warning from their master to avoid future confrontations with his father.
Despite the warning, Daken continued to monitor his father and when Logan secretly took a hit out on himself, Daken became outraged that somebody else should kill his father before Daken had the chance.
Daken was lured into the open when Deadpool attempted to kill his father, just as Logan had planned. Daken was then shot in the back of the head by the Winter Soldier, with bullet made from carbonadium which dramatically decreased the speed of an healing factor, incapacitating him.
With Daken unconscious, Logan cradled his son in his arms and carried him out of the warehouse. Daken regained consciousness after being brought to a cave somewhere in Japan that was filled with the disfigured remnants of men used in various Weapon X experiments. When Daken awoke he apparently panicked and killed most of the men. When Logan arrived to find him standing amid the bodies, Daken faltered, attempting to explain that he'd killed the creatures because he felt threatened and asking who he was and what had happened, revealing that the head-wound seemed to have caused him to lose most of his memories, much like his father had in the past.
Logan identified himself only as 'a friend', promising to take Daken to someone who could help him. When Logan decided to steal a truck to get them back to San Francisco , Daken helped unbidden, sneaking up on the driver and pulling him from the vehicle. Logan initially believed that Daken was going to kill the man, but when told that he didn't have to, Daken simply tossed the man to the ground, and Logan reflected that Daken didn't seem to have an ingrained bloodthirst, and wasn't too far gone like Sabertooth.
While Wolverine was attempting to track down Charles Xavier to aid in Daken's recovery, [3] Daken was captured and recruited by Miss Sinister and her partner Sebastian Shaw who offered to help him regained his memories. Xavier then used Wolverine's memories to show Daken the truth that Romulus was behind Itsu's death and Daken became enraged at having been manipulated. Against Xavier's protests, Logan then decided to take Daken with him to seek out revenge against Romulus.
The duo then planned to find what Cyber knew about Romulus, Logan instructed Daken to 'betray' him to Cyber in order to get close enough to double-cross and captured him, which Daken did before triple-crossing Logan and leaving with Cyber. Daken then taunted Cyber by telling him that the world belonged to him and he had no intention of sharing with anyone, he was going to work against Romulus on his own in order to usurp his empire.
Daken then left Cyber to die and disappeared before Logan caught up to them. Norman Osborn put together a new group of "Avengers" , and approached Daken to play the part of "Wolverine", and Daken agreed.
The sword has various mystical properties, including the ability to disable superhuman regenerative powers and cut through even adamantium. Fury believed that Daken intended to have the metal bonded to his bone claws by the Tinkerer who had last been spotted in New York City. Cyclops, seeing Daken as be a liability, planned to kill him with the Muramasa Blade, because with Daken wearing his father's costume, the public wouldn't be able to differentiate them Cyclops believed that he was attempting to leverage this as a means to discredit the X-Men.
However, Emma Frost , believing that this would drive a wedge between the two X-Men and seeking to prevent Daken's death, warned both Logan and Norman Osborn before Cyclops lead a team against Daken. As he was about to kill Cyclops, Logan intervened and fought him but in the end, the Muramasa Blade was shattered, and Daken escaped with a shard of it. Daken had the Tinkerer coat the inner-wrist claws on each hand with the metal of the Muramasa Blade.
Although the blade was really made of a plasmic form disguised as metal, it could be treated as such. Wolverine was able to find him but it was too late, the bonding process was already over.
Daken then revealed to his father that he intended to use his new claws to kill Romulus, he then stabbed Wolverine through the chest but without using his new claws and escaped. Daken then rejoined his Dark Avengers team, while he was with his teammates, he demonstrated a tendency to modify his behavior and 'character' depending on whom he was interacting with, displaying aggressive behavior and threats toward Sentry , jeering and teasing toward Bullseye , and instigating gossip toward Ares. With Moonstone he even preformed an about-face, originally presenting as being shyly smitten with her, but when she began stalking him, he convinced her that he was a particularly dangerous psychopath, scaring her off.
Following repeated failed attempts to kill the Punisher , Norman Osborn sent Daken and a platoon of H. After a bloody round of hand-to-hand combat, Daken dismembered and decapitated Castle before kicking his remains from a rooftop. Castle's body parts were collected and spirited away by Moloids seemingly operating under the protection of Man-Thing. Castle's body was put back together and revived as FrankenCastle. Bruce Banner lured his alien son Skaar into a fight between him and Daken.
Daken used his pheromones to calm Skaar down, reducing him to his human form. Skaar asked Daken to kill him as he was guilty of the destruction he had caused back home, but Wolverine and Banner intervened. The two father-son teams battled, but the fight was stopped when Banner said that Skaar had learned his lesson and Daken abruptly left Wolverine behind.
Daken's loyalty to Osborn and true motives remained questionable. He secretly assisted the Fantastic Four in breaking into Avengers Tower. A tape showing Daken brutally disemboweling an armed robber was leaked onto the internet, and Osborn contrived a plan to fix Daken's public image by having him defeat an invented terrorist team.
After the explosion, Daken emerged from the burning building carrying a baby girl whom he'd shielded from the blast with his own body, and then collapsed in front of live news cameras being declared a true hero. During Osborn's Siege of Asgard , Daken had visions of killing Osborn forced upon him by the Norns who wished to bring about Ragnarok with Daken as the vessel.
Daken was then contacted by his father for help in defeating Romulus, and Logan detailed a plan for luring him into the open.
Before that plan can be enacted, however, Romulus surprised Daken in a hotel in Paris. After Romulus briefly gaslit him, Daken related everything his father told him about his plan. He then stabbed Daken through the heart with a replica of the Muramasa Blade, making Romulus believe that Daken had been killed to lure him out of his hiding place.
When Daken recovered from being stabbed, he helped Romulus to escape. However, once they were alone Daken attempted to kill Romulus. He said that he had an epiphany, realizing that Romulus had always been lying about his intention to make Daken his successor, and that Romulus had always intended it to be Logan instead.
Out of anger and a need to prove himself better than his father, he slashed Romulus's chest open before Logan arrived with Cloak to transport Romulus into the Dark Dimension. Daken and his father fought each other until Logan was able to break both of Daken's arms due to the Muramasa claws not being properly anchored. He then rendered Daken unconscious by stabbing him through the heart once again, then cut the Muramasa claws out of Daken's wrists and buried them, along with the remaining blade.
Daken stayed in Rome for a time as he suffered an existential crisis following these incidents. He sank into depression and nihilism as he attempted to rationalize Romulus' teachings about power and control against both their defeat at Logan's hands. When a grifter attempted to rob him, he came to the conclusion that those who hurt or attempt to hurt him have done nothing wrong because the world lacks any meaning beyond survival. Eventually, he left to go to Tokyo , where he was looking for the Muramasa blade.
However, when he was there he encountered the newly revived Franken-Castle. Castle's new form made him far more dangerous than ever before. He then went to Milan , where he had a fashion designer make him a new costume. When the suit was finished, he killed the designer to preserve his anonymity and moved to San Francisco where he proclaimed that his time had come, and to "beware the fury of a patient man".
In San Francisco he observed two opposing groups protesting Mutant Rights and concluded it was a waste of time and decided he was on his own side. Soon after, he ended up going to a fortune teller to see his future.
Daken began stalking Melita , his father's current love interest. He followed her all the way to a bar and touched the back of her neck. She quickly looked behind her only to find no one. Logan asked her if something was wrong as she was looking around nervously, and she replied it was just her nerves. Daken thought to himself how small his father's world was and how it had no vision or scope. Daken wanted something more.
Shocked by this revelation, Mystique betrayed the Red Right Hand afterwards. And the only way to have it all is to make sure that no one else has anything. During their dinner, they were attacked by Hellverine who burned Daken alive while Mystique was able to escape believing Daken to be dead.
But unknown to her it was all of a setup as Hellverine had other plans in mind for Daken and allowed him to live while Daken used this opportunity to disappear making the world believed he was dead while letting the Red Right Hand finished their revenge against his father. Despite Daken not being present to witness the success of both his revenge and the Red Right Hand's revenge against his father, Wolverine had a vision showing him how Daken had been involved in the Red Right Hand's horrific plot.
Now believed to be dead, Daken went to see the Fantastic Four where he obtained a glove from Reed Richards that made energy claws, so that he would be able to conceal his identity and continue to be "dead" to the rest of the world without his claws giving him away.
