Christmas, innocense, and scary bad guys

With Christmas fast approaching I thought a stack of Spidey comics might be just the thing for him. As I spent quite a few hours lost in the artwork and storyboards of comics when I was a kid I thought they might be something he’d enjoy, too. I remember one particular cross-over issue with S...

Letters to a young X-fan

Written by JK Parkin
When John Byrne took over the art from Cockrum, one of the things he wanted to do as co-plotter of the book was ‘rehabilitate’ Wolverine… that is, make the fans like him more. Part of it was that Byrne was Canadian himself and didn’t want the only Canadian superhero at Marvel to go away, and par...

Wolverine #69 BFAW REVIEW

14 Nov 2008 19:31:17 PST

Written 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. 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: What happened to Wolverine all those years ago?

New Comic Books For November 12, 2008

12 Nov 2008 11:38:00 PST

Written by noreply@blogger.com (Rokk Krinn)
BATMAN: CACAPHONY #1 MARVEL COMICS WOLVERINE #69 Which Marvel comic book am I most looking forward to reading? I am excited to read Big Hero 6 #3. This mini-series has been an absolute blast to read. I have been impressed with Claremont’s ability to capture that shonen manga feel with this title. I would be thrilled if Marvel decided to make Big Hero 6 an ongoing monthly title. This title would certainly fill a niche that is currently absent from Marvel’s monthly line-up. However, the Marvel comic book that I am most looking forward to reading is Wolverine #69. Despite the scheduling problems with this title, the Old Man Logan story arc has been a gripping tale. I cannot wait to see what Millar has in store for us with this issue.

Wolverine: Chop Shop #1 - Review

11 Nov 2008 18:59:28 PST

Written 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. Just because an idea with him comes up doesn’t mean it needs to be published, Marvel! And clearly it doesn’t guarantee that it’l...

Wolverine Origins #29 REVIEW

01 Nov 2008 11:27:14 PDT

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.

X-Men Legacy #217 REVIEW

26 Oct 2008 14:39:49 PDT

The issue begins with what has become a signature of this title: Xavier being taken to school by one his former students. Wolverine forces Xavier into his mind for a trip down the uncomfortable lane of Xavier’s manipulation, all those years ago, of the new X-Men, Wolverine. I am really enjoying the segments of these comics that pull out the X-Men lore in the context of showing how Xavier wasn’t always the nice guy. 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 y...

X-Men Original Sin #1 REVIEW

11 Oct 2008 13:42:16 PDT

The opening of the crossover between X-Men Legacy and Wolverine Origins has an interesting set up. The comic is split between both title’s creative teams into two chapters. The story is seamless in its hand off between teams. The comic deals with reestablishing Wolverine and Xavier’s relationship and bringing Wolverine’s son, Daken, into the picture for those who might not know him. It’s a good story but it doesn’t feel terribly essential for this crossover. 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.

Wolverine Annual #2 REVIEW

04 Oct 2008 22:01:31 PDT

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...

Comic Book Review: Ultimates 3 #3

25 Feb 2008 09:20:00 PST

Written by Rokk Krinn
Synopsis: We begin with Wolverine walking into the Ultimates’ mansion. Wolverine says he is here because the X-Men make Magneto their business. 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. Hawkeye mumbles that he is better off dead. Magneto charged Wolverine with the task of killing his pathetically weak son, Quicksilver, in order for Wolverine to prove his loyalty to Magneto.

Comic Book Review: Wolverine #62

Written 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. We zip back to the present. Wolverine arrives at the small village in Afghanistan from the beginning of the issue. We see Mystique in Wolverine form hiding in an alley. Wolverine sees the dead woman that the Mystique posing as Wolverine killed. Wolverine yells out for Mystique to come out of hiding. The villagers all appear on the scene with plenty of guns and tell Wolver...

Comic Book Review: Wolverine #53

01 May 2007 19:04:00 PDT

Written by Rokk Krinn
Loeb supplies Wolverine #53 with solid dialogue. I like how Loeb handles Wolverine’s character. Wolverine has the proper external voice and he acts and reacts in the standard fashion that his character should. Loeb definitely has a better feel for Logan’s personality than Daniel Way over in Wolverine: Origins. 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.

Comic Book Review: Wolverine #52

02 Apr 2007 07:40:00 PDT

Written 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. The Bad: Wolverine #52 was just a pedestrian issue. Loeb has failed to hook me on this story arc. Now, part of why I haven’t gotten into this story arc is that I have a philosophical difference with Marvel Comics on the direction for Wolverine’s character. I maintain that it is a massive mistake to give Wolverine his memories back.
