Im bored with this story. The issue itself is decent, but I found myself wanting to skip ahead a month to read the new arc that would be without Hulkverine. If youve stuck with it this long, youll probably want to buy this bookbut if youre new to the series and wondering if its worthwhile? Wait four weeks. Read Full Review

Weapon X is decent this week, but it wasn't as great as it normally is. Read Full Review

The revelation of Dr. Alba's plan and how insanely fucked up it is is pretty dark and I enjoyed it. It was nice to see more of the title team working together since we get so little of the 3 back up characters, but Laura, as much as I love her, is still drawing attention away from a team that we already have had very little time with. I'm enjoying the direction the Weapon H story is going now, but after literally 15 issues building this arc, I'm ready for Weapon X to move on to something fresh.

The Stabbie Mutie Brigade catches up to Dr. Alba and her Hulkverine, but the only question is whether they're even going to have time to stop her before she metaphorically shoots her own feet off. The writing partnership of Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente produces consistently lackluster results. My hypothesis? They're both expecting their partner to provide the polish the script desperately needs, but their raw, clunky words are rubber-stamped through to the finished page by uncaring editors. Marc Borstel and Ibraim Roberson have a consistent but also fundamentally dull art style. Their linework is scrupulously polished but their posing veers much closer to "lifeless ragdolls" than "living people." It's a promising story told with a palpable lack of investment by its creators. If they can't be bothered to care, why should we?
