WOLVERINE WEAPON X: TOMORROW DIES TODAY Coming to DVD

Soon you'll be able to WATCH Wolverine take on Deathlok.

Looks like Deathlok is getting ready to make a comeback. He's been seen from time to time recently in the pages of UNCANNY X-FORCE and WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN. He's even been mentioned on Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Shout! Factory and Marvel Knights Animation are bringing the story, WOLVERINE WEAPON X: TOMORROW DIES TODAY, by Eisner Award nominees Jason Aaron and Ron Garney to DVD. The story deals with Wolverine's life getting even more complicated when cybernetic robots from the future set out on a super hero killing spree. The only person that can help is a young waitress who insists she knows him, or at least knows the person he will become.

Here's the official synopsis:

The future is controlled by a malevolent mega-corporation known as Roxxon — which keeps its tight grip on society through the use of cyborgs, the Deathloks, whose sole purpose is to seek out current and future vigilantes — and neutralize them with extreme prejudice. Now, in order to prevent Roxxon's rise and the eventual slaughter of the world's heroes, Wolverine must join forces with a mysterious woman possessing unexplained knowledge of the coming dystopia. He won't give up until the Deathloks are stopped, but what hope is there to prevent a future that has already come to pass?

The DVD will also contain a brand-new exclusive DVD featurette that takes viewers into the creation of the Marvel Knights Animation title. The DVD will be released on May 13, 2014.
