    I love character development, dialogue, and history when used effectively, especially when a writer can manage all of the above serenaded by bits of action. Percy weaves in an issue thats an info dump… but it doesnt feel that way when youre finished. Readers, this is top-notch, master fiction at its finest this week. New WOLVERINE fans learn a ton while old fans get to peel back extra layers of the onion to truly see that special bond between Maverick and Logan that words cant describe… except Percy finds a way. Im super pumped to see where this is going and I hope Maverick isnt going anywhere any time soon. This issue is deep, suspenseful, powerful, and captivating. Let me know what you think and remember, today is a victory over yourself of yesterday. Have a great week and God bless! Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - David Harth

    Jan 29, 2021

    Wolverine #9 yet another banger from Percy and Kubert. The two of them are proving to be an amazing team on Wolverine and have made the book into one of the best X-men books of them all. The stakes arent super high; its just Wolverine trying to save his friend, but the creativity makes it work and feel amazing. As intimated above, the only problem this issue has is that it ends too quickly. Read Full Review

    Wolverine #9 is a solidly written issue by Percy that expands on the history of the main character in Team X, moves the current story forward a few steps that's elevated to a much higher level by absolutely masterclass art, paneling, and coloring by the creative team. Read Full Review

    But Why Tho? - CJ

    Jan 27, 2021

    Wolverine #9 is a bloody and brilliant spy tale, with the art and story reminiscent of spy films, including the James Bond and Mission: Impossible franchises. Fans of spy films or the 90's era X-Men will definitely want to check out this issue, as well as Percy's previous issues. For my money, Wolverine remains one of the better books in the current line up of X-Men titles. Read Full Review

    Amazing story! Gave me a 90s vibe and I LOVE IT! Wolverine's hand being sold at auction? Only time I can remember his hand being cut off it's in AoA storyline. What could that mean?

    Wolverine attends the slave auction of his old buddy Maverick, "saving" him in a way that throws them into a cliffhanger standoff with a bunker full of baddies. It's a short installment, but an exquisitely-crafted one, particularly in the structure of the script. Every detail serves a purpose, Die Hard-style. On the art side, I'm not thrilled with the 90s vibe in the character designs, but the layouts, like the words, have an admirable structure.

    Another good read for the series here. Kubert's art is really nice throughout this book, and I thought Percy wrote an entertaining story. This wasn't anything absolutely spectacular, but it was really solid. The auction premise was fun.

    With a heartfelt pneumonic the bro-code in this issue of Wolverine doesn't die easy. I am surprised Kingpin didn't rat on Wolverine sooner, but really, why does everyone want to exploit Krakoa so badly. Can't the mutants just be left alone? Still, another mind controlled Wolverine issue wont be too bad on my eyes, especially if he killa some of his friends and goes through another arc of lamenting and grief. So , I say : bring on the next chapter ! - cvrthebard.tumblr.com
