The perfect jumping on point! Wolverine has never had luck with women. They usually die or try to kill him. So what happens when a new woman enters his life? You think you know how this one goes, but this one issue will stop even Wolverine dead in his tracks!
While Wolverine: Weapon X #10 has its share of slip-ups, I count it another win for Jason Aaron. One of my favorite aspects of the book is how it continually straddles the line between grit and black comedy, and this issue is another great example of that. For a character like Wolverine who's so completely overexposed, we could use more stories like this one. Read Full Review
Whether or not you believe Melita and Wolverine will live happily ever after is sort of irrelevant. I fully expect her to die, but the point of this comic is to pick up the reins on the introduction of the character and the growth of their friendship. This comic does so in a believable and satisfactory way. It also brings in enough of Wolverine's past to add some depth (and humor) to the issue, but not so much that you need wikipedia. This is a good comic book. Read Full Review
Even so, it's an enjoyable issue over all, and perhaps it actually becomes more so when taken in isolation. It's the kind of introspective Wolverine story we see far too little of, and the kind that you can return to again and again. If you're a fan of Wolverine as a character, rather than a pure killing machine, it's undoubtedly a must-buy. Read Full Review
