Wolverine will appear in a series of “after credit” scenes in some Marvel titles that, when read in sequence, will touch on Wolverine’s status quo – a la Marvel Studios’ ubiquitous “stinger” scenes. “Fans have been speculating about Wolverine’s whereabouts since he first reappeared in Marvel Legacy #1—and the Marvel Universe is left just as unaware!” said Marvel SVP and Executive Editor Tom Brevoort in a statement. “So keep your eyes peeled as Canada’s favorite citizen makes his presence felt in titles all across the Marvel line! It’s all leading to something—but what?” "Mystery has always been part of Wolverine's DNA,” added senior editor Mark Paniccia. “He's one of Marvel's most interesting and popular characters. Fans are going to have a helluva ride finding out where he's been and how he came back.”[/quote] [url=https://www.newsarama.com/37436-where-is-wolverine-marvel-brings-after-credit-scenes-to-comic-books-in-january.html]Newsarama[/url] If you care, Sniktbub will be in: CAPTAIN AMERICA #697 On-Sale 1/3/18 MIGHTY THOR #703 On-Sale 1/17/18 AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #794 On-Sale 1/24/17
Wow two titles anybody with a clue wants new writers for because the current ones are absolutely abysmal (who the fuck even hired Aaron, the crusading atheist on Thor?!) and Captain, let's get Waid to save the character after a complete disaster [I][B]again[/B][/I], America. Pass. Except for maybe Cap, the first Legacy issue was cool.
I thought having a second story in a comic was fairly common? I saw them all the time, like in Jonah Hex, and even Bill and Ted..
I could have sworn this was already a thing. I know what few manga I've read all had a little something extra at the end.

[QUOTE=lonefirewarrior;52911057]I could have sworn this was already a thing. I know what few manga I've read all had a little something extra at the end.[/QUOTE] Because it has been since the late 30s.
I'm not entirely sure how this works because by definition of "post-credits", all comics are post-credits because the credits are always on the first or second page, the only exception i can think of being The Night Gwen Stacy Died in order to loophole around the Comics Code spoiling the twist.
