AN EYE FOR AN EYE!
Time has passed since WOLVERINE'S quest for vengeance began. But as an eye for an eye escalates through the years, revenge becomes a FAMILY AFFAIR! And this is going to be one HELL of a reunion! A shocking development in Hickman and Capullo's saga of the Wolverine that must be experienced to be believed! RATED PARENTAL ADVISORY.
Rated T+
Issue four shows of how Hickman has built a fully realized moment behind all the violence, while it subtly comments on the vicious circle of revenge and brings several elements from past issues into focus. Capullo and the art team then lift the script even further with an absolutely flawless comic from start to finish. Read Full Review
Overall, Wolverine: Revenge #4 is a powerful and unforgettable issue. It's a must-read for fans of Wolverine and those who appreciate mature, character-driven storytelling. Hickman and Capullo deliver a brutal and emotionally resonant chapter that will leave readers reeling. This issue significantly raises the bar for the series and promises an explosive conclusion.

This run started with a Wolverine at peace. Four issues and more than twenty years later, and Logan still holds onto revenge. With an older Logan, and a new present, WOLVERINE Revenge still delivers a classic Wolverine story with twists and turns. No matter the age, or the enemy, he'll always be the best at what he does. This is a comic every Wolvie fan needs to add to their collection. SNIKT! Read Full Review
Wolverine: Revenge #4 presents the penultimate issue in the “What if?” story by jumping forward in time to a point where the quest for revenge turns against Wolverine. Jonathan Hickman's vanity project is a fun time-waster, as long as you don't mind plot holes or inconsistencies with the setup. If all you want is an excuse for Wolverine to kill bad guys, that's about as much (or as little) as you'll get. Read Full Review
Wolverine: Revenge #4 arrives after a two-month break with a continuation to a story that we have moved on from. This leads to this return to come across as a sequel to a story that didn't need one. It is unfortunate because there was so much potential with this mini-series. All that we can hope for is that the finale can nail the landing this penultimate issue awkwardly pushes it towards.

Wolverine: Revenge #4 thrives on Greg Capullo's stunning artwork and the intensity of its fight sequences but falters due to a meandering plot and lack of narrative purpose. The Western-inspired setting and visceral battles keep it visually engaging, but the story fails to justify its continuation, making this issue a spectacle more than a meaningful addition to Wolverine's saga.

Great alternate future story for Wolverine. Sharp writing and fantastic art. The Omega color clones are cool and Colossus Jr. (with obvious Magik influence as well) will surely also be really interesting. Would love for this to be turned into a mature animated movie.
Plot
This comic takes place 20 years in the future, where Wolverine with the help of Forge manage to create a safe community, very similar to the Wild West.
Wolverine has Sabretooth captive, mutilated and using Professor Xavier's classic flying chair, he keeps him alive as a way to torture him, but Sabretooth may be physically disabled but he managed to activate a protocol where a team of Omega Red clones called the Omega Clan emerges, who are sent to destroy Wolverine, only one is left behind, the son of Colossus.
The battle between the Omega Clan and Wolverine is exciting and the Omega version that generates instant diseases is spectacular.
Wolverine may be older but his impetus is the same and he eli more
Great art, and I like the setup for the finale.
