Ultimate Wolverine #5 — Alessandro Cappuccio Cover (2025)

Ultimate Wolverine #5 is the fifth issue of Marvel's Ultimate Wolverine series and features the introduction of Ultimate Sabretooth. The story follows Logan, the Ultimate Universe's Wolverine and former Winter Soldier, as mysteries surrounding his past begin to emerge and a familiar figure enters the conflict.

The cover presents a dramatic portrait of Wolverine/Logan in the foreground, wearing a black-and-red outfit and gripping a large red object or mask in front of his body. His face is partially obscured by the object, emphasizing the mysterious and brutal tone of the series. Behind him looms a huge, shadowy Sabretooth, depicted as a feral, dark-furred figure with glowing red eyes and prominent fangs.

The artwork uses a predominantly black, red and gray palette, with vivid red highlights around Wolverine and Sabretooth's eyes and claws. The composition creates a strong visual contrast between Wolverine in the foreground and the enormous animalistic silhouette of Sabretooth behind him.
