    Fans of Wolverine as Patch should snatch up Wolverine: Madripoor Knights. It'sa fun romp in Madripoor with deep-cut references thanks to Claremont's expert perspective on these characters. Come for the excellent fights, but stay for the intrigue of Madripoor. Read Full Review

    I'd be lying if I didn't say the dialogue feels a little wooden, but compared to the blood-soaked modern alternative, sometimes retro cheesiness does the trick. Read Full Review

    The comic has a bit of a throwback feel to it and there's more than enough references to other events as to when this takes place to put it in continuity but unless you're really nostalgic, the comic is amusing but not really engaging. Read Full Review

    Color me surprised that I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. Claremont has his tropes and his weirdness that cannot be denied, however his writing is mired in his insistence to overwrite and to base his stories in very specific continuity that, even for someone as big into comics as I am, can bog things down. This was mostly clean though. You don't need to read Uncanny X-Men #268 to enjoy this. You can shrug off Wolverine's current status quo even. And you get a rather classic feeling story out of it. If Marvel insists on giving older creators these nostalgia bait comics to write, I hope they veer more into this lane where they can stand on their own.

    A mini set in the past like this is unlikely to have major implications for the canon, which means it's really just about having some fun with the characters. The art is good and the content more or less delivers; it's not very ambitious, but it's an easy enough read. Was Claremont's Logan always so friendly and gregarious?

    I liked a great deal about this issue, but the standout was the interraction between the characters. Can someone explain to me how Natasha is as old as Wolverine and Cap. I don't get that one. The action scenes are decent and Wolverine screwing with Cap the entire time was great. I'm going to continue this series. I didn't have hight hopes from Claremont's writing, but I was pleastantly surprised. My Comic Book Review Channel - https://youtu.be/eDMmNIR7iMk
