    The first chapter in Sabertooth War is a very promising start. Its appropriately violent while also having some surprisingly tender moments before all hell breaks loose. The title is an easy recommendation. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Kevin Rossi Jan 10, 2024

    Wolverine #41 successfully kicks off Sabretooth War, the new ten-part event that will conclude in Wolverine #50. Books with creative teams of this size can sometimes suffer from pacing or consistency issues, but the entire creative team here has delivered something that feels completely well executed. Something else that is impressive is how much story there is in just 28 pages. Events of this size often start with a longer issue but the talent and synergy of the creative team collectively knocks it out of the park. Read Full Review

    If you weren't yet, Wolverine #41 will get you excited for "Sabretooth War." This is a take-no-prisoners story that's as bloodthirsty as it is wicked. Read Full Review

    The first installment in the new "Sabretooth War" event claims it'll be "the most violent Wolverine story ever told!" That's a hell of a claim considering just how gruesome Benjamin Percy's run has been by itself. But it turns out he (and former Sabretooth writer Victor LaValle, who also gets a writing credit) weren't bluffing. Read Full Review

    The first die is cast as the bloodiest feud in Marvel history prepares to write another chapter. Solid writing and strong imagery set the stage for violence and pain. Who will be left standing at the end is anyones guess but buckle in for the ride! Read Full Review

    This is the wolverine comic. That true fans have been clamoring for. For decades. If you even like wolverine even a little bit. Buy two copies

    The ending scene legitimately had my mouth agape from the brutality. This arc could very well be the most violent wolverine story if it continues and ramps up even more. The fact this is during the fall of x makes it even more devastating. Percy’s run has been brutal and fun as hell, and this arc doesn’t show any signs of that changing.

    Plot
    Sabretooth of Earth 616 has already managed to convince the other versions that his plan to eliminate Wolverine is perfect, so they prepare to go to Krakoa to begin their revenge, of course, without knowing that this island is deserted since it is not There are mutants, only the Stark Sentinels guarding it.

    But Sabretooth has the Orchis ship's technology in control of him and begins to track Wolverine's location. His first victim is Quentin, who thought to go rescue Wolverine in this place by mistake and is literally devoured by the Sabretooths.

    Wolverine is at the North Pole leading the X-Force team made up of Akihiro, Laura, Sage, Black Tom, Fang and Domino. Wolverine senses that something is about to happe more

    Wow. The best issue for this series since the Weapons of X storyline, in my opinion. I really liked Wolverine's paranoia towards the second half of this, and that ending was absolutely crazy. I second Texas VII's sentiments about it. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this goes.

    First of all, the art is fantastic for this issue. The characters are all well-drawn as is the gore that is present in the fights and other violence we see on the page.
    Plot-wise, we were promised the most violent Wolverine story ever told, and right out of the gate, there's no holding back. Characters die in incredibly gruesome ways, cementing Sabretooth as Logan's top baddie, as no other character has even come close to the violence and trauma he's dishing out on Logan already. And this is just the first issue! We will have to see where this all leads.

    First off, I found it strange to see the editor’s note specifying this issue takes place in between X-Force #50 and the FofHoX/RotPox event. The last X-Force released was only #47, which means we’ve now jumped ahead 3 issues there even though FofHoX/RotPox has already started. Perhaps this will make more sense as things unfold across the board, but this made me wonder if something got jumbled on Marvel’s release schedule and things were meant to release in a different order originally.

    Other than that, this was one of the best issues of Percy’s Wolverine run in a long time. While I had my reservations about another Wolverine vs. Sabretooth showdown, this blew me away in every way possible. Marvel’s solicitation didn’ more
