“Contagion, Part One: This Little Curiosity,” PART 2 OF 6 It’s cover-to-cover blood-soaked action as the most extreme Wolverine monthly ever continues! Wolverine has never faced an opponent quite like Contagion, who becomes a much bigger problem if he's killed! But first, Logan must get past the aptly named Unkillables. Round one: Madcap. Whatever you do, don’t look into his eyes.
Well, first things first, this issue was hundreds of times better than the last issue. Whereas last issue made NO sense, this one at least seemed to follow a story-thread. It seems that all of Wolvie's enemies here are immortal, even though I'm still not exactly sure what their game is. This comic was as gory as you'd expect, it does say “Parental Advisory” on the cover, but I'm still kind of perplexed by the censoring of the profanity... There are a few occasions of cursing in this comic, but they get the “####” treatment. If you already have dismemberments, and a parental advisory, why not just add the cursing and go the full monty? Meh, besides that, I'm glad that this series has become somewhat coherent, and I'm looking forward to seeing where the next issue takes Wolvie. Read Full Review
All in all, "Wolverine: The Best There Is" does little to convince me that a secondary Wolverine title needs to exist.
