This issue felt like not just a direct follow up of the previous issue of Ultimate Wolverine but also the most recent issue of The Ultimates. It helps create the sense there is something bigger going on and Wolverine's actions are playing a key role in everything. What that results in with the major X-Men character that appears does a lot to continue the progression of this series. Read Full Review

It feels good to watch Wolverine decapitate Sentinels and stab Colossus in the face while Moscow burns around him, and this comics ends up being one of the best in the series because of its focus on simple, effective brutality. Read Full Review

Ultimate Wolverine has been one of the better-selling Ultimate books, easily outpacing the 616 series in sales. This latest issue does everything that the book has been doing throughout its entire run, which is both great and also something that is going to cause the people who don't like the book to continue not liking it. We just came off a huge moment in the book the end of Opposition and this issue is all about revenge. Condon hits just the right notes for this kind of Wolverine story; I especially enjoyed the captions, putting us in Logan's head as he walks into a situation that could easily mean his murder. The Ultimate characters are often great, and this version of Wolverine has always been better than he gets credit for. Read Full Review

Ultimate Wolverine feels like its starting to recapture the same interest those early issues had with its last two outings, though there is still some work that needs to be done as we reach the end. Nonetheless this is a strong issue that starts to put a bow on the events in Eurasia. Read Full Review

it's kind of strange on how Ultimate Wolverine has been my favorite series to come out the bunch. It's not mind blowing, but it is entertaining and the one I remember the most.

The conclusion to a 12 issue arc that feels anticlimactic but on par for the course. The series itself may require another reading, it just kind of felt lacking.. is it worth picking up the next four issues?
