"DAYS OF ANGER" CONCLUDES!
• MAESTRO has played his hand.
• LOGAN and HAWKEYE may be in over their heads.
• Can a defector from Maestro's camp save them all?
Parental Advisory
Days of Anger has been an epic and truly entertaining adventure Logan fans old and new will enjoy. Read Full Review
OLD MAN LOGAN #30 ends the "Days of Anger" story with a unique entry in the Hulk/Wolverine rivalry. Old Man Logan battles the Maestro as Ed Brisson makes this old rivalry seem new again. There are a few artistic missteps, but it's a pretty solid closer all the same. Read Full Review
Though the ending is flawed, overall I give it a 10. It was a compeñling, riveting, beautifully realized saga which uses really well the apocalyptic nature of Old Man Logan, revisitobg the initial saga and adding the Maestro and Hawkeye to the mix. Tragedy is what makes Old Man Logan, the character, so compelling and Brisson makes great use of that here. You wish the 616 Wolverine had so much gravitas.
Spoilers coming, the ending doesn’t work. Although I love Puck saving the day, not this way, it’s cheap and anti dramatic, and the Maestro and the Hulk gang are too good antagonists to be defeated so easily. But this by no means ruins the saga, which is first rate.
Spectacular Mike Deodato art throughout.
A perfect summary of the whole story
Well done. Brisson and Deodato are a nice duo.
Only negative is how in the world did Clint survive being crushed by a military truck??
The "nuke everything" plan was already foiled last month, so all that's left for OML and Hawkeye is separating the innocent Hulk-kids from Maestro and sending him packing in an utterly formulaic "we shall meet again" defeat. It feels like Ed Brisson and Mike Deodato wanted this to be more than a by-the-numbers popcorn comic, but they both went about "enhancing" it in the laziest possible ways. Mr. Brisson's fatuous finale where Logan gives Clint some insultingly simple "forgive yourself" advice is the grand prize winner, but it's by no means the only storytelling trick than ends up doing more harm than good.
I'll admit the possibility that the truck zooming past them as OML speaks is being driven by freshly-resurrected Real Loga more
