By legacysword@gmail.com (Kevin) Wolverine: Weapon X #6 – While I am disappointed that Jon Garney is off this title I have to say Yanick Panquette is a great choice as an artist to follow up Garney's work. And the story that Jason Aaron looks to tell in this new story arc feels new ground for a character like Wolverine. Should be a...

By noreply@blogger.com (Andrenn) I know I just used this in the last Week’s End but…come on! Spider-man rarely is this awesome. Especially since the BND era began. Lately he’s been the unlovable loser who really you just don’t give a damn about. But Bendis all reminded us why he’s Spider-man and why he’s awesome. Why isn’t he in t...

By LaRevolucion44@aol.com (Rokk Krinn) Instead, Aaron focuses on what makes Wolverine cool and that is massive amounts of action. Thanks to Aaron's Wolverine: Weapon X, I was able to drop Wolverine and Wolverine: Origins. Of all the Wolverine titles, Aaron's Wolverine: Weapon X is by far and away the best read.

By legacysword@gmail.com (Kevin) Wolverine: Weapon X #5 – This has quickly become one of my favorite titles. This is how a Wolverine title should be writer. Aaron and Garney are doing an excellent job on this title and this final part to the Adamantium Men should a fun conclusion.

By noreply@blogger.com (Andrenn) F*** YES! Spider-man for the win. If this is a prelude to the events of The List: Spider-man then there’s no way I’m missing out on that. This was so awesome in so many ways. I finally have a desire to be reading New Avengers if we get more of Spider-badass. Spidey hasn’t even been half this cool in hi...
Comic Book Review: Wolverine: Old Man Logan Giant-Size #1
Original at Rokk's Comic Book Revolution
• Thu, Sep 24
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 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.

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]
Comic Book Review: New Avengers #48

By noreply@blogger.com (Rokk Krinn) Synopsis: We begin with the scene of the battle from the end of Secret Invasion #8. Captain America whispers something to Clint. 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.

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.

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]

And that the Brotherhood is connected to Magneto. Hawkeye asks Wolverine “Didn’t you used to be in the Brotherhood?” Wolverine spits back “Didn’t you used to have a wife and two kids.” Hawkeye calls Wolverine a “mutie” and says it is on. Hawkeye unloads a crapload of bullets into Wolverine. Wolverine shrugs them off and puts his claws to Hawkeye’s head. Hawkeye tells Wolverine to go ahead and kill him.

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]
