Wolverine

By Brad Curran I was originally going to dismiss this collection of Wolverine variant covers as a shameless cash grab, until I read the solicits. Then I realized that if my Art Appreciation class in college had been based on Wolverine cover homages, I'd probably remember something from it. So, got me ther...

By LaRevolucion44@aol.com (Rokk Krinn) Writer: Mark Millar Also, by having Logan raise baby Bruce, Millar continued the bond that exists between Wolverine and the Hulk, but this time in a much more positive manner. The Hulk and Wolverine seem to be two characters that are inextricably tied together.

By tonyrak Published by Pocket Books, The Wolverine Files is one part encyclopedia and one part metafiction, lovingly written and designed to look like an official dossier of all the intelligence S.H.I.E.L.D. has gathered on Wolverine over the years.  By compiling over thirty years’ worth of comic pane...

By pozzyfreak Some Thoughts Before The Review: Wolverine may be overexposed these days, but Jason Aaron’s Weapon X series is definitely a keeper. Conclusion: While the story leaves a bit to be desired, Wolverine: Weapon X is worth it for the action alone. If you’re a fan of Wolverine, consider the latest...

By noreply@blogger.com (Andrenn) Now the plot in the present is undeniably the simpler and weaker of the plots as it’s simply Wolverine, Kitty and Forge infiltrating the Sentinel factory to learn more about Master mold. Kitty gives the smart idea to just trash the place but Wolverine of all people wants to be covert. That did...

By noreply@blogger.com (Andrenn) Even when confronting Mojo Wolverine steals the spotlight form Nightcrawler. This is getting ridiculous. It’s as if the writers wrote this in at the last minute to make sure we gave Wolverine some lines and make sure the audience is aware that he’s still our main character. Rather than just l...

By noreply@blogger.com (Andrenn) Wolverine and the X-men Episode 14: Stolen Lives I must admit I did like seeing the doctor who made Wolverine into what he was. He was such a glorious bastard in Hulk vs. Wolverine and with that being a prequel to Wolverine and the X-men it makes perfect sense that he’d show up sometime here.

By paladinking Meanwhile, as was the case last month, I can say that Ron Garney is currently drawing my favourite Wolverine.  Logan looks positively bestial, demonic even, despite Garney making his height very apparent.  Logan actually LOOKS like a Wolverine: short, stalky, and feral.  It really takes...

By rsg8101 What’s Good: A little disclaimer: this is the first Wolverine Origins comic I’ve ever read, so I’m coming to this series with fresh eyes and no knowledge of things past. What I liked about this comic was Wolverine’s ferociousness. In every scene it seemed like he was getting ready to pop a blo...

By LaRevolucion44@aol.com (Rokk Krinn) Wolverine thinks how these soldiers got the complete make-over. Wolverine thinks "The only things these guys are missing is-" Suddenly, the soldiers pop out their green energy claws. Wolverine responds "Oh, you gotta be kiddin' me."

By paladinking The Not-so-Good: There’s only one big downfall in this issue.  Despite occupying half the issue, the Adamantium Men just aren’t very compelling right now.  I know Wolverine despises anything Weapon X, but I still wish we could see a little more personality or character from these comman...

By Greg Hatcher Here is my official review/general opinion of X-Men Origins: Wolverine. I’m not giving out spoilers. As you may have guessed, I’m such a die-hard X-Men/Wolverine/Hugh Jackman fan girl that it’s hard for me to critique this movie, but I’ll do my best.

Your Rating : Hugh Jackman, you did your best, but you didn't get much to work with in this one.

Given Logan's long lifespan in the regular Marvel universe, he fits in easily into the 1930's period piece setting and his role of private detective. Noir feels like an interesting alternate approach to Origin. Smith's art does a spectacular job of ... Wolverine: Origin - TPB Review IGN

By LaRevolucion44@aol.com (Rokk Krinn) I know that once Millar's story arc ends on Wolverine that I will drop that title. I already have dropped Wolverine: Origins. So, Aaron's Wolverine: Weapon X will have to serve as my Wolverine fix. I would certainly recommend Wolverine: Weapon X to action fans. I would also recommend Wolverin...

By Brad Curran They reference the Peter Milligan written, Darwyn Cooke drawn Wolverine/Doop team up mini-series briefly. For some reason, that makes me very happy. That’s a part of Wolverine’s convoluted continuity that I liked! Awesome! Maybe the Pink Lady will show up in the new movie!

I am looking forward to Dark Avengers #3. Bendis has managed to do on Dark Avengers what he has not been able to do on New Avengers and that is to deliver an interesting story that involves the entire roster of the team and actually moves with a point and purpose. However, the Marvel comic book that I am most looking forward to reading is Wolverine #71. Millar's Old Man Logan story has been an absolute blast to read and has certainly been the best thing that has happened to the Wolverine franchise is years.   [read the full post]

By pozzyfreak The Story: How much can I really say without spoiling the surprise? In Wolverine #70, Mark Millar finally reveals the reasoning behind Logan’s decision to keep his claws inside for over fifty years. As you probably guessed, the reasoning involves lots of bloodshed and general brutality.

By ComicList The cast of bad guys is pretty wide in scope. You have some Spider-man villains, like Doc Ock, and you have usual X-Men villains like Sinister. There seems to be some news ones on each page. Wolverine goes berserk. His goal is to fend off the cast of bad guys long enough for the kid mutants to escape. The main problem is that none of the other X-Men are around to help him. The cast of bad guys is pretty wide in scope.

Clint agrees and then whispers the same message to Spider-Man. Spidey then tells Iron Fist. And Iron Fist tells Wolverine. And Wolverine decides on his own to tell Spider-Woman. I enjoyed how Bendis handled Captain America in this issue. Bendis has Bucky exude confidence as he wears the Captain America outfit like he owns it. With all the self-doubt that has plagued Bucky over in his own title, it was great to see him fully embracing his role as Captain America and understanding the important relationship between Captain America and the New Avengers.   [read the full post]

By ComicList The cliffhanger from last issue was the scene where Spider-Woman was about to kill Hawkeye (his own daughter) and Logan decides to play hero. This issue barely touches on this. It left me thinking either a) this was all a ruse (which would be cool) or b) there was no further way to involve Spider-Woman without making Wolverine fight and it’s too early in the arc for that.

By ComicList Mark Millar and Steve McNiven continue their awesome run on Wolverine and bring us one step closer to Hawkeye’s payday and, hopefully, answers to some of our biggest questions: Old Man Logan continues as Hawkeye and the former X-Man continue their journey through the Kingdom of the Kingpin to New Babylon in Wolverine #69. I was psyched to get my grubby mitts on the book this week. It seems like it’s been forever since Wolverine #68 came out, and the ending of that issue left me chomping at the bit.

By shadowvenom Conclusion: Logan’s narration and some decent art aren’t enough to save this bland story. This is a perfect argument for Wolverine’s over-saturation in comics.

Brandon Borzelli's Geek Goggle Reviews Wolverine Origins #29 Marvel Comics Way, Deodato & Beredo Well I was concerned that this crossover wouldn’t have a consistent feel from title to title. I was wrong. This issue very much resembles the storytelling from Legacy. It’s an excellent issue and makes use of the techniques that have worked so well in the Legacy title the last few months. I have hope for this arc and the best part about it is I have no idea, not even a guess, as to how it will end. Read more » Original post blogged on ComicList.

of 4 Marvel Comics Aaron, Segovia & Rauch The plot is interesting though. Something is calling Wolverine into the danger and keeping him there. We don’t have the information yet but it certainly is intriguing. Wolverine has a skeleton in his closet that seems to be more about him righting a wrong he himself committed. However, no one wants him around much less try to right the wrong. With Wolverine in so many comics it’s hard to find an interesting or original story. This story had my attention. I’m glad I picked it up. If you like Wolverine getting punished and charging into something where his motives are unclear then this comic is for you.   [read the full post]

By ComicList Overall it’s an interesting arc and good issue within it. It isn’t just a Wolverine goes berserk type story. Also, Daken isn’t shaping up to just be another Wolverine who is younger and has a different haircut. The story has meat to its plot and is using an interesting cast of villains with varying motives. This comic is worth picking up if you like some old school X villains and a Wolverine Xavier team up. Overall it’s an interesting arc and good issue within it.

X-Men Original Sin #1 Marvel Comics Way, Carey, Deodato & Eaton The story starts with Wolverine dropping Daken off at the house of one of his friends. Then he heads to see the X-Men. He wants Emma to mind wipe his son’s conditioning. What he finds is that Xavier’s scent is all over Cyclops. Wolverine goes beserk and storms off. Eventually he finds Xavier hanging around and he then propositions Xavier to help with Daken. Xavier is less than thrilled to hear that someone wants to use him and his mind powers to un-brainwash someone and he ultimately has a confrontation with Wolverine. Meanwhile, Daken finds himself making friends with the wrong kind of people if you are an X-Men.   [read the full post]

Wolverine finds a town where the residents are missing for the most part. Those that are alive won’t speak. Wolverine then gets attacked by a sonic boom. A huge wolf-like creature appears. Wolverine scraps with it for a little while but the sonic boom took out his eardrums and in the process destroyed his balance. He eventually escapes. This comic doesn’t add anything to the Wolverine mythos and it doesn’t add anything to the regular title. However, it’s an interesting story that has its entertainment value and isn’t just another Wolverine gets revenge type story. I liked it and I found the storytelling to be very ironic and meaningful in its own context. I’m glad I picked it up. If you have room in your budget for a one shot then I would recommend this c...   [read the full post]

By noreply@blogger.com (Thom Kallor) Old Man Logan has been at hit with The Revolution. The basic premise is this is Wolverine's personal Days of Future Past type story. In the first 2 parts we learned that it has been 50 years since the heroes fell. Super-villains carved America to pieces. Each claimed their own empire. One man does not want to remember. He is Logan, the hero formerly known as Wolverine. He has not used his claws since that final battle. Logan settled in Sacramento and is raising his family. His family is threatened by the Hulk Gang(Bruce Banner's descendants). They want rent money that Logan does not have.

We slide over to Ashley in a Spider-Man styled costume and sitting in one of Kingpin’s jail cells. End of issue.   [read the full post]

By Deamentia If you’re expecting a huge, fast-paced romp like Mark Millar’s “Enemy of the State” storyline (which is probably the last great Wolverine story I’ve read), you’re going to be disappointed.

By Rokk Krinn Wolverine then confesses that the main reason that he hooked up with the Secret Avengers was because he wasn’t going to let them leave Echo in Japan. Echo tells Wolverine to not hit on her again. Wolverine says that he isn’t hitting on her. That she will hit on him. Wolverine and Echo have a pretty nasty brawl with the Skrull and finally are able to hurt it bad enough where it decides to retreat and live to fight another day. After the Skrull runs away, Echo tells Wolverine that she know believes him that there is a Skrull conspiracy. Wolverine says “I told you so.” Echo asks Wolverine why he followed her. Wolverine responds that he figured she was the most likely person that the Skrulls would try to replace in order to infiltrate the Secret Avengers becau...   [read the full post]

By Rokk Krinn We cut to the present day with Wolverine arriving at a small village in Afghanistan. Wolverine threatens to gut a little boy unless he tells Wolverine where Mystique is hiding. Wolverine says that he can smell her scent all over the village. Wolverine suddenly drops the boy and grabs a nearby woman. Wolverine tells Mystique to drop her disguise and show the villagers who she truly is. I am also tired of Wolverine having some type of connection in his past with just about every single female in the 616 universe. Is it really necessary that Logan have a history with practically every single character in the 616 universe? This is part of what makes Logan just way to overexposed. And I’d also rather that Marvel use “Wolverine” to concentrate on Logan in...   [read the full post]

By Rokk Krinn And honestly, Wolverine’s past was irrelevant. Just about every Marvel hero has an origin and back-story. Not Wolverine. And that is what made him so unique. I always found it wild and bold that Marvel never gave Wolverine a real name or an origin. And that is what made Wolverine so special and cool. Now, Marvel has done a complete 180. We have gone from absolutely no information on Wolverine’s past to an absolute overload. Wolverine has a son over on Wolverine: Origins. Not to be outdone, Loeb makes Wolverine a Lupine Sapiens. It is just too much for me. Wolverine’s past and origin gets more and more outlandish and ridiculous by the minute.   [read the full post]

By Rokk Krinn I like how Loeb handles Wolverine’s character. Loeb serves up a proper sounding external voice for Wolverine. Loeb gives a Wolverine that isn’t too over the top and vanilla in personality like what Way gives us on Wolverine: Origins. Loeb goes with a version of Wolverine much more like how Claremont used to write him. Wolverine used to have that appeal and allure. Wolverine was more of an icon than a person. A force of nature rather than a man. Now? Now, Wolverine is just another guy. The more we learn about his past the more Wolverine just becomes another person. As each layer of his mysterious past is peeled back Wolverine becomes a bit less attractive and the reader has less fascination with his character.   [read the full post]
