• The Xavier Institute is under attack and it's all GLOB HERMAN's fault!
• How did this walking, talking lump of bio-paraffin bring a whole horde of X-Men villains down on their heads?
• And will LOGAN be able to save the day?
Parental Advisory
Old Man Logan #40 isnt much of a Logan story. It showcases a character who has rarely gotten any starring roles and is better for it. The plot is tried and true, but Brissons script is brimming with emotion and is easy to connect with, and Robersons art is expressive and dynamic. Its all very cliche, but it works in the best possible way. Read Full Review
There's nothing particularly incredible about the issue, and it is a little too on the nose from time to time, but overall it is a pretty solid addition to a series that's gone through quite a few hiccups. Read Full Review
Not much substance in this issue which makes me yearn for the series to return to its earlier form when the comic was one of the best that Marvel put out monthly. This was pure filler and the story didn't have much to do with Logan at all. Read Full Review
OML rallies a skeleton crew of mutants to fight off a Purifier attack and support poor Glob. This is incredibly simple, textbook X-Men stuff, but it's executed quite well. I really hope Ibraim Roberson is the first illustrator in line for any future Glob stories; he does great with the big pink dink. I liked the hints of affection going from Shark Girl to Glob, and I wouldn't have been sad to see them get a little less subtle with it.
Quentin Quire was there and they didn’t just have him shut down the Purifiers thoughts? That bugged me.
