Now at thirty-two issues, Old Man Logan is still firing on all cylinders. Brisson, Deodato Jr., and Frank Martin are a powerhouse team delivering a brutal and effective comic sure to become essential reading for Wolverine fans. Read Full Review

I need to take the first few seconds of your reading to address the cover of this comic. Wolverine hailed by a barrage of throwing stars, arrows, and shurikens in an unphased action pose. Deodato outdoes himself with this tribute to awesomeness. In all seriousness, the cover conveys much of what makes a "Wolverine vs. Ninjas" story impressive. Ninjas are plentiful throughout the Marvel universe (and the comic universe at large). There's doubtless fun watching Spider-Man contort himself between arrows or seeing Iron Fist skillfully dodge a series of sword strokes. Seeing a spear crumble against Luke Cage's body affords a certain satisfaction. Only with Wolverine can you get a fight that ends with the victorious hero a pincushion of ninja equipment. The cover of the latest Old Man Logan expresses that visceral feeling. Read Full Review

OML and Gorgon finally clash over their mutual interest in Regenix, though Gorgon is also motivated by the villainous glee of revealing his new Scarlet Samurai to Logan. Structurally this is a great comic. Pacing and scene arrangement are solid, the twists are twisty, and the page layouts are remarkably talented. The tactical details - dialogue and character drawings - are lacking, though, particularly the latter. Mike Deodato can pull together a *heck* of a great page. The elements he's assembling are mostly minimum-effort tracings, and their underwhelming combination wipes out all his good layout work. The "Uzi tracing + 3-second bottle sketch = hi-tech autoinjector" panel in the lab scene is what I'm talking about. Brisson's dialogue is completely workmanlike and non-memorable, too. This comic is built on the bones of greatness, but it's fleshed out in a strictly pro-forma fashion. more
