Wolverine v3 #62
April, 2008

Appearances:
Wolverine, Mystique, Cyclops

Synopsis:
pg1-pg3-FB: 1921
Logan, in a Mexico prison, is awoken, blindfolded, and taken outside to be executed. He's placed next to a blindfolded Mystique, they start to chat, and the firing squad does it's job.
Pg4-pg9: now
Mystique, disguised as Wolverine, storms into a village in Afganistan looking for ‘Mystique’. She/he kills a woman in front of a bunch of villagers.
Pg10-pg16-FB: three days earlier
Cyclops and Wolverine chat about Mystique and her most recent betrayal to the X-Men. Wolverine agrees to hunt her down. Eight hours later he confronts her in Iran. She gets away and blows up a building, leaving Wolverine to tend to the wounded citizens.
pg17-pg18-FB-FB: 1921
Since the firing squad didn't kill him, Logan has killed the firing squad. He & Raven then head off for the nearest bar.
Pg19-pg23: now, following pg9
Wolverine follows Mystique’s scent into Afganistan and is attacked by villagers, while Mystique watches from afar, still disguised as Wolverine.

Page count does NOT include the text-only recap page.

Placement suggestions were made for the 1921 FBs here, and wolframbane reminded me that X: TF 3 needs to be moved in Mystique’s chronology.

For the current day stuff, this should happen before X-Force #1. Wolverine thinks Cyclops is going to send the new X-Force after Mystique, but Wolverine wants to go alone.(X-Force was unveiled during Messiah CompleX, this is after Messiah CompleX) By the time X-Force #1 rolls around, Wolverine is trying to talk Cyclops into not having the rest of the team kill anyone, he should be the one to do that kind of stuff.

The Senator is given the last name "Brickman". Mystique had formerly posed as the wife of Senator Miles Ralph Brickman. Are you sure the killed character is not her former husband?

The hair color is different, but it's probably the same Senator Brickman.(it's black in Cable Annual '98 but light brown here)
