Title:

Wolverine: The Jungle Adventure (1989)

Synopsis:

Gathered around a fire, a Shaman recants a tale to his fellow tribesmen of the time Wolverine came to the Savage Land after he was attacked in New York by a cyborg that had the scent of the Savage Land on him. Once he lands in his gyroplane, and defeats their chief, Logan took over the leadership of the tribe. Turns out the chief he defeated was a woman by the name of Gahck, who took Logan as her mate. Over time, Logan gained their trust and taught them how to hunt. One day, one of the tribesmen returned from their outing to inform another member of the tribe that his son, Chakel, was captured by the giant honker. Leading a search party out into the jungle, Logan happened upon the large T-Rex and, after being swallowed by it, learned that it was a robot, designed to transport. Determined to finish this, Logan lead another search party out to where the T-Rex emanated from. Going into the volcano alone, Logan learned that there was a large laboratory inside with a number of containment tubes. He also discovered that it is run by Apocalypse. Initially captured, Logan managed to free himself with Gahck’s assistance and was ultimately able to defeat Apocalypse. In truth, however, it wasn’t Apocalypse he has been facing, but a robot of Apocalypse. With the robot destroyed, Wolverine is contacted via hologram by the real Apocalypse, who reveals that he had orchestrated this whole ordeal after learning that one of his robots went rogue. Enraged, Logan proceeded to destroy the laboratory and, after doing so, departed the Savage Land. The Shaman, continuing his tale, tells the members of the Tribe of Fire that, even though Wolverine has not returned since then, he will not be forgotten. Also listening to the tale are Chakel (who survived his ordeal) and Gahok, who is now holding a baby in her arms.
