The art hurts it too. I feel let down that this swan song is getting the scrub treatment.

Apr 15, 2017OLD MAN LOGAN #21 is a somewhat emotional issue that takes Logan through his past lives. Writer Jeff Lemire crafts another great comic, and artists Eric Nguyen and Andres Mossa portray Lemire's words wonderfully. Read Full Review

Apr 13, 2017There's a definite appeal to seeing Lemire explore these flashback periods and Logan's reaction to being forced to relive some of his worst moments. There's even a nice bit of tension in the Weapon X flashback as Logan risks stranding himself in his own personal hell. At the same time, this issue doesn't do enough to build a sense of momentum for the arc as a whole. Read Full Review

Apr 12, 2017Even with the questionable choice at the start Jeff Lemire does show that he can write Logan and this is another really exciting and fun start to another story arc that is sure to get pretty crazy. The art is also really amazing and I loved the fresh new look Eric Nguyen has given these big moments in Logans history. Read Full Review

A pretty badass book and great look at part of the history of the comic.It's very set-upy but I can already see how well these four issues will go together. Still a good read regardless.

It's interesting to see Logan's past relived here, and the art of Eric Nguyen is pretty awesome. Seems a bit slight, but still a good issue.

I don't need a historical review of Logan. I need a good story. And this was just not it. And the art was pretty bad. I do love Sorrentino's cover though. But Nguyen's work is meh. Hoping for more next issue.

Boring. I was there for the original tales so this detached retrospective in the form of a time travel travelogue of Logan's canon was nothing special.

Reminds me a lot of the Secret Wars series where OML bounced from one random scenario to another without any real point. No matter what happens on any stop, there's no time to get invested in it because it'll just whisk away to the next in a few minutes. Also, 1812? Should we start calling him Really Old Man Logan?

4.0
While Asmodeus auctions off Logan's body to random baddies in the present, his soul goes skipping through his past and lands at his debut fight with Hulk and Wendigo. Get into it any deeper, and this book is severely underwhelming. The "greatest hits" time-travel montage is pointless so far, and Eric Nguyen's War of 1812 art is deeply embarrassing for a Napoleonic nerd like me. Bolt-action rifles and 20th-century combat knives? Besides being poorly researched, the art is a pale imitation of Mr. Sorrentino's work. The writing is decompressed to a fault, and my one-sentence summary encapsulates all the meaningful developments in this issue.
