Quick recap

Fifty years ago, the villains joined forces and won. The U.S. became a wasteland carved up among them. Logan lives as a pacifist farmer in California with his wife and kids, and hasn't popped his claws in half a century. To pay rent to the Hulk's grandsons' gang, he agrees to escort an old, blind Hawkeye across the country with a mysterious package. Along the way they run into the Kingpin, Clint's daughter and the ruins of the heroes' world. Flashbacks reveal why Logan stopped fighting. When he gets home, he finds a tragedy, and Wolverine is reborn to settle the score with the Hulk family.
