  Wolverine #17 is an interesting read, in part because it's a bit of a breezy jumping-on point, but also, nothing too big happens. It's mostly establishing a life Wolverine will want to fight for, since Adamantine is likely going to try to take it all away. This is a breather before the storm, offering a glimpse of the life Logan might actually want while quietly reminding readers how easily it could be ripped away. Ahmed leans into Wolverine’s feral competence and reflective edge, pairing survivalist action with a softer look at companionship and responsibility. The monster-of-the-week conflict delivers satisfying tension, even if the broader narrative barely shifts forward. As a standalone character piece, it works well. As a chapter in a bigger arc, it clearly exists to position the pieces before Adamantine arrives to smash the board. Read Full Review

  Everything about this issue is solidly competent, but it’s just not that interesting overall. The most interesting material is just watching Logan and Sable hooking up since it offers something different than the norm, and a nice nod to Logan’s own history without coming across as a brag. I’m dreading the next storyline that’s taking us back to the Adamantine, but I’m also glad to seemingly be moving on from this group of young mutants using the Morlocks name. The only real saving grace recently has been Silver Sable, and the minor awkward time with Alpha Flight, and most of that is just nostalgia on my part for the characters than how they’re largely used here.
