Synopsis
To escape the drama at the mansion, Wolverine heads
to a bar for a drink. An attractive woman tries to chat with him but he rudely
rebuffs her. Then Hercules walks in and every woman in the place gravitates
toward him. Herc needs room at the bar for his new admirers so he asks Logan to
move. Logan refuses so Herc tosses him into a chair. Logan comes out swinging.
He punches Herc to no effect and the Greek demigod gives him a mild slap that
sends him backwards. Logan pops his claws and tries again but this time Herc
jams a table down on his blades and jokes about Logan’s small stature. So Logan
bashes Herc with he table that is now stuck to his hands. Then Herc starts
laughing, admitting Logan was a worthy opponent, then invites him to share a
drink. But they look around and find the place in a shambles and everyone has
fled. So they share a lonely drink at the bar.
