Wolverine: Weapon X #5

The first arc of Wolverine: Weapon X is an unqualified success, and issue #5 is a joy to read. A lot has been done to Wolverine over the years in an attempt to make him deeper and more interesting, but Jason Aaron understands what's always been great about the character at his core and uses that as a springboard to tell some great stories.

With the first arc delivering so well I am eager to find out the next direction of this series. It seems like this comic is laying out long term ideas that will provide good stories for quite some time. It's no longer just a title that is really just a Wolverine-beserker comic or a big conspiracy with layers of cover-ups. It seems to be a series with good characters and significant plots worthy of an A-list character like Wolverine. Read Full Review

Not quite as awesome as I'd hoped, but things do kick up a level when the internal narration starts. Read Full Review

. I'm quite pleased with Aaron's first arc on Weapon X and it's the first time in a long time that a Wolverine title has grabbed me like this one has. While this issue is only a Check It, the arc as a whole is a Must Read. Grab the trade if you've been on the fence about this series. You won't regret it. Read Full Review

A nice storyline, not focused on making a bombastic remark about his past or a mindblowing retcon, it just works, it's a good, well draw story of Wolverine killing some bad guys.
