WOLVERINE: PATCH #2 is a master class from every aspect in how to tell a classic style Logan story. It has everything a fan of the characters exploits could want to see: pace, violence, a intriguing twist and beautiful art on every front. It's a comic every fan of Logan read. Read Full Review
While this is far from a must-read Wolverine story, it's also bound to scratch a nostalgic itch much better than the character's many other current comics. Read Full Review
If you are a fan of Wolverine and Patch then I would recommend it otherwise I would wait until more of the story has been published and read all of them together. Read Full Review
A few merciful scraps of plot development make this issue less of a mess than the last one. And the story's still told decently in the art (though I think #1 looked a little better).
I can't say the same about the script. The structure is messy. The frequent cutaways are annoying, not exciting. And the prose is still pretty dreadful (though perhaps better than #1), with honest-to-God grammar mistakes piling on top of the cliche and expository problems.
