You Don't Read Comics - David Harth
Oct 27, 2018Return Of Wolverine #2 is a better comic than the first issue because it focuses on a well-drawn, well-written fight, instead of the cliche early-90s Wolverine story that Soule is laying out in the book so far. The end of the issue sets up a reunion that many fans have waited years to see, but thats really the only thing to look forward to with this story if youre a long time fan of Wolverine. This one still has a few of the same problems as the last issue, but it also does a few more things well. Read Full Review

Nov 02, 2018The issue is actually titled Limbo and it is an apt name cause that'swhere I felt the issue left me. It drops at least two gears from the opening issue and ends up being a 26-page filler that only asks more questions, offers no solid answers, a decent fight scene thrown in for good measure and the introduction of the actual X-Men into the mix. I am hoping for much better from issue #3 Read Full Review

Oct 30, 2018True believer's Logan is working his way back into the Marvel universe in style! It's a nonstop adrenalin rush as the X-Man get's closer to his goal of reuniting with his teammates. We're approaching the home stretch, but will he make it back in time? to be continued! *** (8.6 rating) Read Full Review

Oct 24, 2018RETURN OF WOLVERINE #2 maintains a static, idle narrative that should definitely be bringing more substance to the table. Read Full Review

Oct 24, 2018There's a lot to go so maybe this is a bump in a road but after a surprisingly good first issue, this is quite a few steps back. Read Full Review

Monkeys Fighting Robots - Brandon J. Griffin
Oct 25, 2018Return Of Wolverine #2 is a clear step down from the first installment in pretty much every single way. Soule and Shalvey disappoint with this skippable issue following what was an absolutely perfect kick-off in chapter one. Outside of a surprisingly interesting debut for Logan's "hot claws," there's nothing of note or much craft to even digest. Read Full Review

Oct 25, 2018Story-wise, I like where the series is going. I'm not too fond of the whole save the kid development, as it's an overdone cliche. Read Full Review

Oct 24, 2018There are some truly great action sequences, but Return of Wolverine remains something best left on the shelf, no matter how stylish some pages might be. Read Full Review

Not much happens but at least we see what happened to Daken.

Very thin story happening here. Not much substance and it all went down on a boat ride that took 10 minutes to read and still can't tell you what's so important about this issue. Then the kiss out of nowhere?? Not Soule's finest work. If the mystery has something to offer then it needed more. Mcniven can't be matched. Shalvey does his best with the fight scenes but it's a huge drop in "quality" due to unmatched styles. Laura Martin's colors were nice though. That was a disappointment.

This is going a bit slowly for me, and honestly Daken deserves so much better, he's literally never done anything to deserve this, #DakenDidNothingWrong.

Solid action but Wolverine is just written so bland and confused by Soule that it's frustrating. The mystery is just as uninteresting and boring but at least the art is nice. Ana, who's Logan's companion in his quest to kill Persephone, is basically just a rip off of countless other of Logan's love interests. Not recommended, step back even from the Hunt For Wolverine minis

Wolverine drives a boat and kills some guys. That's all that happens in this issue. Skip
