Archie Corrigan

Fictional character biography

Archie Corrigan assists Patch in several encounters with Madripoor's criminal elements. Early on, he works with Patch against Prince Baran, the island's ruler. Joined by Karma, they battle the super-powered duo Bloodscream and Roughhouse, with the three heroes saving each other's lives multiple times. Archie's father dies, leaving him thirty dollars—one dollar for every year of aggravation.

His brother Burt, a mentally unstable man, gains the majority of the inheritance. Archie's aunt Ruth calls a competency hearing for Burt. Archie asks Patch for moral support, and together with Jessica Drew they fly from Madripoor to San Francisco for the hearing. There they battle Ba'al-Hadad, a demonic Anunnaki who manifests vampire-like creatures to pursue them.

After Ba'al-Hadad is killed, Burt moves on with his life; he is later seen breaking the bank at a casino. An assassination attempt leads to Archie almost being killed. He is spared only because the Yakuza value his piloting skills. Archie works closely with underworld figure Tyger Tiger to expose a conspiracy targeting Logan and his allies.

This falls apart when the Yakuza head is betrayed and killed by an operative from within. General Coy and Prince Baran lead an attack on the Princess Bar, killing Archie and many of Wolverine's friends. Other fatalities are Rick O'Donnell and Rose Wu, a shapeshifting employee of Landau, Luckman, and Lake.
