![]() ![]() ![]() I'll give the comic a pass and won't knock the final grade for it for that reason. The book is essentially two full-sized comics in one book. However, looking at the big picture an $8.00 #1 for an ongoing series is more of a barrier than an entry point. I think there is value here for adult fans and collectors with disposable income. I know that this is a double-sized issue and that there is a demand for the book but the cover price is a barrier for new readers and kids will be immediately priced out. The only knock I can throw at the comic is the $8.00 cover price. I can honestly say that this is the best Wolverine comic that I've read in at least a decade. Ben Percy has a great voice for wolverine and Kubert is an absolute legend. Long gone were the glory days of Larry Hama and Chris Claremont. It also didn't help that he'd continually been watered down and softened up over the years. Over time due to overexposure and demystification of the character Wolverine lost some of his lusters. The gruff loner with the mysterious past that scared the hell out of hero and villain alike was an easy fan favorite. ![]() Like many of us, Wolverine was my favorite X-Men character. ![]()
