Wolverine Blues is the third album by Entombed, released in 1993 on Earache Records. The album marked a move away from their death metal roots to the more traditional hard rock/ metal style they produced from this album onward.

It was also released with Marvel Comics character Wolverine on the cover, although Entombed never wanted their album to be associated with the superhero. Earache Records, without the band's permission, had made a deal with Marvel in order to use Wolverine to promote the album to a more mainstream audience.[citation needed]

"Wolverine Blues" was originally a composition by jazz pianist Jelly Roll Morton.
