Old Man Logan # 1 (2016) is about the time-displaced Logan from a dystopian future who awakens in the present-day Marvel Universe and decides to change history to prevent the atrocities he experienced in his timeline from ever happening. 

  • A New Reality: The issue opens with the elderly Logan, who has survived a post-apocalyptic future ("The Wasteland") where supervillains won, finding himself in the present, vibrant Marvel Universe as a result of the Secret Wars event.
  • The Mission: Realizing he has a second chance, Logan vows to prevent his devastating future from coming to pass. He begins a grim mission to assassinate key villains in the present before they can unite and slaughter the heroes and his future family. He starts writing a list of targets on his arm.
  • Flashbacks to the Wasteland: The issue uses noir-styled flashbacks to the Wasteland, reminding readers of the dark future Logan came from and the reasons for his grim determination. These include the brutal rule of the "hillbilly Hulks" and the murder of his own family, events that led him to resume his violent ways after decades of pacifism.
  • First Steps: Logan begins his mission by tracking down and killing minor villains, such as the Gladiator and the Flying Devils, who in his future were involved in human trafficking, showing his intent to be proactive and brutal in achieving his goal.
  • The Tone: The comic establishes a gritty, hard-boiled tone, focusing on Logan's internal narrative, regret, and determination to "fix" the past, even if it means using lethal force in a world where the heroes are still alive.
