Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - One of the worst Wolverine books ever!
Wolverine is one of my favorite Marvel characters. But this book is terrible. First of all it's one of those comics where the characters talk a lot, but never really say anything. The story is also really bad and the art is some of the worst I've ever seen. Every character, even the women, have the same face and body type. Is this the world's laziest artist? Just skip this one.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Wolverine's Origin. Born In Blood...
I'm a pretty big fan of Wolverine, he would be my second favorite comic book hero (#1 being Iron Man...) This graphic novel/comic book is pretty entertaining, but quite bloody. I mean this is Wolverine so be prepared for alot of blood. The art is quite detailed and not sloopy, I really like it. and Wolverine having a Murasma Sword=Awesome. The story ties in pretty well to me. It seems like this would be his Origin IMO. I don't really see why people don't like this. I gave this 5 stars, because the rating is way too low. I'd really give this about 4 stars.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Origins
Simply put, I really enjoyed this. Especially seeing the 'not-so-nice' aspects of Wolverine's past and persona. Finding out the cruel irony that just as he was made a monster, he also directly created one. Seeing an entire government going on blue alert out of sheer fear and helplessness at the situation: Wolverine has his memories back. What, does he remember? What is his agenda? How much damage and destruction is going to occur? And finally, a good ol' fashion throwdown between the Canuckle head and non other than Captain America. The title Born in Blood also has a more symbolic and poetic meaning, especially when you get to the last pages.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Remember the Past. Thanks for the Future
I'll start out by saying the Wolverine is not my favorite X-Man, who are my favorite heroes of all time. That spot would have to be held by Kurt Wagner, the magnificent Nightcrawler. However, with this series, I have put Logan up into my top five X-Men. His life sucks, and this book pretty much explains a lot of the reasons why. With M-Day, Logan was able to get a lot of his memories back, some good, most not so. This series ties the present in with a lot of his past, and with this book one, we can see that Logan is not a really happy dude. But he's willing to change and he wants to tie up loose ends, one way or another. I like this book because it has guest stars from yesterday who made an impact on his life in the past and how he deals with them now, for better or for worse. I also like the simplistic art, which is kind of a throwback to yesteryear. It gives you the feel of the past, which is much needed in a book for Wolverine: Origins. So for those of you out there who are hatin' on Logan, stop. Just give the book a try. Peace and Love, Jake



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Great art, possibly the worst Wolverine story ever told
Aside from Steve Dillon doing a great job on this series everything else is nothing short of a travesty. Wolverine has been reduced to a whimpering, sobbing fool who is nothing short of a mass murderer of the most evil and shrill ever introduced. But hey, he was just mind controlled, drugged and duped! So what if he is torturing and murdering as casually as one would buy a soda, it was the government! Ugh. Who thinks up this rubbish? Wolverine always had a redeemable quality to him and now hes a guy who is responsible for probably half of the evil known to mankind but its OK because someone else was controlling him? Now mutants are 100's of years old? Now Wolverine has been around about as long as Jesus Christ? Sound like a good comic to you? The writer of this garbage should be locked up with the woman from Misery and be forced to rewrite a tale that takes it all back. I just cant recall a character being ruined more so than in this comic.
