If you're just getting into comics or know someone who is interested in comics, this is a great starting place for future fans of Wolverine. I'm no wolverine expert, but I didn't learn too much from this book, a lot of rehashing what we already knew. Again, if you're unfamiliar it's great. Otherwise it's just a jog down memory lane.
Life of Wolverine #1
LOGAN'S LIFE STORY - IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER FOR THE FIRST TIME! WOLVERINE has been mindwiped, manipulated and given false memories so many times, what is the truth of his long life? Now, as a journey into his own past becomes paramount to the survival of mutantkind, delve into the TRUE story of LOGAN's life, from his earliest days in the late 1800s...
Some pretty awkward art, to be honest. Jean's eyes aren't facing the same direction in one panel very early on and that might have put me off a bit. It's basically just a recap of Logan's life, and given the sheer enormity of continuity that entails, it doesn't seem like a bad thing to have it in one location. Nice ending and it did eventually suck me in to its narration of Logan's journey up t more

I love/hate these kinds of time travel stories
Wolverine: Weapon X #15
Its the action-packed conclusion to "Tomorrow Dies Todayand at the end of it only one Deathlok shall remain. As Logan and the greatest heroes of the Marvel U unite to confront him, the question is raised: is he friend or foe? Or maybe even both? Parental Advisory $3.99
Dang, that was a good and striking ending. I saw the big ending coming, I'm guessing most people will, and it is still neat seeing all the pieces come together. A bit more of a Deathlok story than any other character involved, but that doesn't make it entertaining as all hell.

A little clunkier in plot and the flow of art from panel to panel compared to other issues in the series so far, but it is still pretty interesting and engaging.
Wolverine: Weapon X #14
With battles raging in both the future and the present, pushing Wolverine and Captain America to their very limits, the most important battle may yet be the one taking place inside the mind of a cyborg assassin. Witness the battle for the soul of a Deathlok. Oh, and laser claws too. Parental Advisory $3.99
A little Bends-y for a Wolverine comic but it's fun and the art remains consistently great.
Wolverine: Weapon X #13
The time-bending saga of the all-new Deathlok continues as Wolverine and Captain America fight for their lives against an army of cyborg assassins. Outnumbered and outgunned, our heroes turn to desperate measures but learn the hard way that when you tamper with the time stream, you better be ready to expect the unexpected. Parental Advisory $3.99
A lot happens in this issue and it really feels like we go on a journey here. Maybe not as strong as last issue, but still pretty impressive overall.
Wolverine: Weapon X #12
The time-twisting saga of the all-new Deathlok continues as Wolverine battles an army of cyborg assassins on two fronts: in the present, Logan must keep Captain America from becoming the latest casualty on the Deathlok hit list, while in the future an aging, battle-ravaged Logan leads a last-ditch effort to shut down the Deathloks once and for all....
I love this series so much. Logan takes Rogers out to celebrate his return to action? Yes please! The Deathlok stuff was well done too - very sinister content - and I love the art.
Wolverine: Weapon X #11
"TOMORROW DIES TODAY" PART ONE Beginning an epic, action-packed arc featuring the debut of an all-new, all-different Deathlok. Killer cyborgs have come from the future to kill the heroes of today, while Wolverine embarks on an international pub crawl with a certain recently reborn Sentinel of Liberty. Beer and bullets galore! Parental Advisory $3.9...
Really cool art and a really, really cool story where Logan talks to a bunch of fellow X-Men and other superheroes about the prospect of dating a journalist named Melita he has been working with recently. I loved this. It was so unique and such an interesting read. Great character work for both Melita and Logan, too, and a nice little moment of dread at the very end to cap it all off with Mysti more
Wolverine: Weapon X #10
The perfect jumping on point! Wolverine has never had luck with women. They usually die or try to kill him. So what happens when a new woman enters his life? You think you know how this one goes, but this one issue will stop even Wolverine dead in his tracks!
This was good, but kind of abrupt. I really like Cypher and I hope someone gives him a hug.
Hunt For Wolverine: Weapon Lost #4
WEAPON FOUND?
Logan was turned into a weapon long ago - controlled, experimented on, but ultimately lost. Now, Daredevil and his crew learn what happens if someone else takes up that weapon...

Nothing wow-worthy but a solid read.

Earlier I complained the other Hunt for Wolverine stories started with a bang but go out on a whimper. This one is kind of the opposite, starting out pretty lame but ending on a strong note with art that finally caught my attention and some good moments setting up Wolverine's return. This whole Hunt for Wolverine event is entirely unnecessary but this issue had some great moments, at least. The more

It was alright. I liked seeing Albert, even for a second, again, which is kind of funny cause Elsie Dee was never my favourite character but I can appreciate the reference just the same. I HATED the fake-out around Cypher's "death" last issue - that was the one moment the series had gotten my attention. Not a fan of this nonsense and the issue was pretty boring.
Hunt For Wolverine: Weapon Lost #3
FRESH BLOOD IN THE WILDS OF CANADA!
• Deep in Logan's home country, Daredevil and his investigative team have tracked the most recent reports of his appearances...straight to the tips of his still bloody claws!
Parental Advisory
Cypher's addiction to the internet feels a little too simplistic for me. Doesn't feel like the character we know from other books, unless I'm really out of the loop about him from this era or something. This issue is a little stronger when it leans into the detective vibes a bit, but I know the story is really only going to tell us so much in the entire miniseries. Even with all that working ag more
Hunt For Wolverine: Weapon Lost #2
A HOT LEAD ON LOGAN!
• DAREDEVIL and his squad of ace detectives - FRANK McGEE, MISTY KNIGHT and CYPHER - continue their search for the missing WOLVERINE, hoping to stir up a lead by questioning folks in the MARVEL UNIVERSE who might have a grudge against Logan.
• In other words... half the MARVEL UNIVERSE!<...
So far, every Hunt for Wolverine starts out promising only to go nowhere fast, so colour me entirely skeptical on this one. This one isn't even that promising, though, as I find it's Soule's brand of post-Wolverine death writing that didn't really work for me.
Hunt For Wolverine: Weapon Lost #1
WOLVERINE MAY BE THE BEST THERE IS AT WHAT HE DOES... BUT SO ARE THEY!
As one of the biggest mysteries in the MARVEL UNIVERSE unfolds, DAREDEVIL assembles a squad of uncanny detectives to track down WOLVERINE - MISTY KNIGHT, FRANK MCGEE and the mutant known as CYPHER. Investigating recent sightings across the globe of a man believed to be LOGAN...
Just for Wolverine completists. Soule is usually hit and miss. If he has not plotted an exciting story (as he did in the great Astonishing X Men), he just drag things out like he did in his godawful Inhumans run.
Unfortunately for this story he decides to bring one of the worst characters from that run, the super boring private detective Frank McGee. The Death of the Inhumans can't come too s

A pretty good ending that maybe doesn't quite deliver on all the fun the arc has been up until now. Dr. Rot does return, which is nice, because he was very sinister here and this was quite the introduction for the character overall.
Wolverine: Weapon X #9
INSANE IN THE BRAIN CONCLUSION Logan's stay in Dunwich Sanatorium comes to an end when Psylocke and Nightcrawler rescue him from the clutches of Dr. Rot. But even if they can save his life, is it possible to recover what he's lost of his sanity?
this book is better than origins and the main book...
Wolverine: Weapon X #8
INSANE IN THE BRAIN PART 3 In the deepest darkest dungeons of the Dunwich Sanatorium, the true nature of this maddest of all madhouses is finally revealed, but will the answer come too late for Wolverine to salvage what's left of his sanity?
This story arc continues to exclusively impress me. Paquette's writing and Aaron's writing continue to impress. This issue perfectly ramps up the stakes for the finale without ever losing its momentum or feeling like a middle chapter of a larger story. Very impressive overall.

Such interesting writing and art. This series has been very impressive so far. I love how unflinchingly dark this all is.
Wolverine: Weapon X #7
INSANE IN THE BRAIN PART 2 Logan learns more about his current residence, the Dunwich Sanitorium, and the bizarre man in charge, Dr. Algernon J. Rottwell. The good Dr. Rot seems to enjoy removing people's brains and...doing things with them.
