Wolverine vs. The Marvel Universe

  • Sep 3, 2005
Rating:
+5
Wolverine has long been regarded as one of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Universe, and this storyline shows why. After he is captured and brainwashed by the Hand, a mysterious Ninja sect, Logan becomes an unstoppable killing machine, butchering his way across the Marvel superhuman community. Nick Fury and Elektra are the only ones who have even the slightest clue on how to stop the unstoppable machine that Logan's become.

After the past few Wolverine storylines- Brotherhood, Coyote Crossing, and Return of the Native- have all focused on non-costumed Logan stories that showcase the man, this storyline throws that to the side and reminds us why Wolverine is feared by all who oppose him.

Millar's script is a nice combination of brutality, inside jokes, and character development, while John Romita Jr. returns to a set of characters- Elektra, Wolverine, Daredevil, the X-Men, that he knows well and draws to perfection.

This is a comic collector must have! My highest recommendations.
