I was impressed with the art, and I thought the writing was strong in the brevity department; both ideal for a story focused on monoliths like Galactus and Doom.

I’m not afraid to overhype it. It’s just a comic, but it’s a well executed comic.

Make sure these picture aren’t stuck together, and get ready for some solid sequences. The bar was set higher and higher each issue, and DWJ somehow still had more fuel to elevate with.

I even felt the cover for 7 added to my enjoyment of the ending… that’s a rare treat to help wit more

These past two issues of Wolverine feel really connected to Percy's X-Force run, and I have found that enjoyable since it is moving the collective plot of both books forward. It is nice to see Domino back in action and challenging the current state of affairs with her team members, especially with Sage, who really needs some help, and Hank, who seems to have become a full-blown villian by the end more

Oh boy, I guess I gotta back track… are there any issues you’d recommend from X force as keys to this arc?

OverlordOfAllThings - Feb 15, 2023

Well Beast has been on a downward slide ever since the beginning of X-Force, so starting there would allow you to see the decent as it gradually builds. Percy is the kind of writer that these kinds of things are slowly revealed over time so it will pop up in an issue for a page or two, then not be mentioned for a bit. Beast's behavior becomes really obvious in X-Force #34 though if you want to jump ahead to where the current stuff with Wolverine comes into play and continue from there.
