    This book is on par with the last issue which is in the running for the single best issue of 2012. Read Full Review

    Two chapters in, and it's looking like Back In Japan won't be my favorite story of Jason Aaron's Wolverine run. But hey, the good news is, a less-than-brilliant Jason Aaron comic is typically still better than a most other superhero comics out there, so it's most likely not the worst thing I'm going to read this month.

    The relentless action, combined with some slightly halting artwork, doesn't always make this book the most memorable one in the world, but this is more of an exercise in tone than in execution. It's not in the same class as last issue, but it's fun nevertheless. Read Full Review

    Emotionally, it seems this series reached its climax with the end of "Wolverine's Revenge." But if there's not a lot of depth to this finale arc, at least it's crazy enough that readers will rarely have a chance to notice. Read Full Review

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I just plain don't like Wolverine's adventures in Japan. Sorry. I mean the story here is pretty solid and easy to follow, but I just can't get too in to it because in the end it's ANOTHER Wolverine in Japan story. To end this review on a positive note, this IS one of the better Wolverine in Japan stories that I've read, so that's good. Read Full Review
