  Unlike Roar, the last one-shot, the art here is pretty forgettable. Honestly, a quality set of pencils is all any of these one-shots ever have to offer. When that end comes up lacking, I just don't see the point. Jerome Opena's work is so-so at best. His storytelling is clear, but his figures are pretty wonky and often needlessly exaggerated. I don't think the "Popeye arm" look suits Wolverine. If you absolutely, positively need a Wolverine story this month that doesn't feature the rest of the X-Men, check out Jason Aaron's Wolverine: Manifest Destiny. Even as a casual diversion, Flies to a Spider just isn't that appealing. Read Full Review
