To many, the ‘Wolverine: Weapon X‘ series, penned by Jason Aaron, is a last hurrah for Wolverine; a short series that celebrates the truth of the character, just before Marvel began to over-expose him. [Read more…] about X-Men Chronology: Wolverine: Weapon X

THE LOGAN LEGACY #4 – “Lady Deathstrike”
The Logan Legacy continues this week with a look at another character affected by Wolverine’s recent demise. Lady Deathstrike has always had a deep connection to Wolverine, because the adamantium metal that was bonded to his bones was done so with stolen tech from her father.

LIFE AFTER LOGAN #1: “You” “In His Honor” and “A Little Piece of You”

ThE LOGAN LEGACY #3 – Sabertooth
Whoa. I have read the other two issues of this run so far, (check out my review of #2), and I really haven’t been impressed. I get why this mini-series exists, to deal with the void that Wolverine left to his friends and foes connected to him, as well as to continue to sell books off of his recent death arc. But then issue 3 comes along and I am completely blown away, and rightfully so, because a character like Sabertooth deserves nothing less. [Read more…] about ThE LOGAN LEGACY #3 – Sabertooth
