Disagree calling it a pointless issue. This one and the past 3 others have been about tying up loose ends with Orchis before Sabretooth War began and the end of Percy run. Were team ups needed? Probably not, but I'm sure Percy wanted to have an opportunity to write them into a story. And they were all a fun read.

Wolverine (2024)
THE LEGEND BEGINS ANEW IN THE ADAMANTIUM-TOUGH NEW ONGOING SERIES! There's a killer in the woods - and as WOLVERINE's attempt at piece is shattered, an OLD ENEMY will re-emerge as a NEW VILLAIN rises who will bring LOGAN to the brink of his berserker rage. But NIGHTCRAWLER knows his old friend is capable of doing what's right, and before long, Loga...
Logan's run of team-ups comes to a close with his final partner being none other than Spider-Man. It's an odd inclusion since Spidey's been keeping busy saving Manhattan from the chaos of the Gang War event (there's even a mention of it in the issue), so how he had time to take a space-ride with Logan is a giant question mark. Wolverine also spends a good chunk of the issue incapacitated after los more

STARK SENTINELS GET SPIDER-SENSES TINGLING! LAST MUTANT STANDING - FINALE!
LOGAN's journey across the ORCHIS-controlled globe brings him to New York City - and a reunion with that great non-mutant super hero: SPIDER-MAN! But will the ol' PARKER LUCK help WOLVERINE against the wrath of the STARK SENTINELS or put the fall in FALL OF X?!

This book is phenomenal! I love everything about this storyline and can not wait until the next issue! The artwork is beautiful and matches the tone of the writing perfectly.
Wolverine #32
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE! WOLVERINE may be the best there is at what he does-but which Wolverine is the best? BEAST's last-ditch effort to save mutantdom involves a veritable CLONE SAGA for LOGAN! Which Wolverine will be left standing? WEAPONS OF X Part Two!
Rated T+
Apparently there are no more X-villains besides ORCHIS and Moira, so I guess there is a new one. . .
Wolverine #31
BEAST will stop at nothing to protect KRAKOA as he sees fit. Having lost the faith of X-FORCE and WOLVERINE, there's only one mutant McCOY can turn to - himself! Join BEAST, BEAST, BEAST and BEAST, under the leadership of BEAST, into the new Krakoan era! WEAPONS OF X begins here!
Parental Advisory
Beast's character development makes sense here. Dark Beast came about because Apocolypes left him unchecked and free to pursue his curiosity. Krakoa has allowed him the same luxury, and the result is a "by any means necessary" attitude.
Wolverine #27
ALL-NEW, ALL-SAVAGE WOLVERINE!
WOLVERINE's been sold out. BANNISTER's been duped. And when the dust settles, there's something...different about Logan. Wolverine's saga in the Krakoan era takes a savage turn with a decision - and a betrayal - that changes everything!
PARENTAL ADVISORY
Wow I love everything that's been happening in the x-books so much! After logan lost it after kid omega's disappearance this was no surprise to me. I have so many theories about what may be going on with Xavier and Beast. This is a mind blowing brutal yet perfect chapter in the krakoan age as weapon x is back (or maybe it should be weapon k for krakoa). The artwork is unbelievably great and the wr more

A surprisingly decent ending to a really stupid arc.

DANGER'S IN THE HOME!
WOLVERINE and DEADPOOL have tracked DANGER back to the X-Men's old home - the former Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters. But the mansion is haunted by old memories and twisted new plots that make this homecoming a horrific new lease on death!
PARENTAL ADVISORY
Other way around for me. A surprisingly decent story arc with a really stupid ending.
Very satisfying. Not sure why this is clocking in at 7.5. Been a lot of fun reading these issues with Deadpool in it.
Wolverine #22
WHO CAN YOU TRUST?
WOLVERINE is trapped in an adamantium prison, and it's probably DEADPOOL's fault. But the betrayal of MAVERICK stings worst of all! Just what is so valuable in that briefcase that it pits mutant against mutant...against C.I.A.?
PARENTAL ADVISORY
Fun storyline. Underrated, apparently.
Wolverine #21
DEEPER INTO DANGER DANGER DANGER!
Outnumbered and surrounded, WOLVERINE unleashes his berserker rage, and DEADPOOL embraces his deadly fighting skills in a last ditch effort to save mutant lives. But what's with all the ROBOT X-MEN, and what do they have to do with the X-DESK?
PARENTAL ADVISORY
Being that Sabretooth is one of my favorite characters I'm looking forward to the Sabretooth Wars!
Sabretooth & the Exiles #5
CREED VS. CREED! The EXILES are exiled, and it's down to CREED VS. CREED - mano a mano, claw to claw and one of this year's BIGGEST SURPRISES in X-canon!
Rated T+
This has nothing to do with the comic, as I don't have a ton to say about the comic. The comic is good, you should be reading it, especially if you liked Hellions. But there's a data page in this issue that talks about the history of the birth control pill. (Something this series, and its predecessor, does is tie the plot to historical instances, usually through a left-leaning lens. Which is total more
Sabretooth & the Exiles #2
MUTINY AMONG THE EXILES!
SABRETOOTH is at the helm?but for how long? As DR. BARRINGTON'S plans are revealed, the EXILES chart a course for unknown danger... and deadly revenge!
Rated T+
Nah, I like when comics are political and tackle the controversies of the time.
I have to say I am loving this series! The artwork is amazing! I find myself spending a lot of time just staring at the pages admiring the art. I also love the story it's a very unique and in my opinion fascinating story. It's a really fresh new take on Spider-Man and I'm loving it!
Deadly Neighborhood Spider-Man #3
DEMON BEAR keeps roaring through Spider-Man's life and southern California - and just when Spidey had finished building his base tan too! With no other option, Spider-Man takes the fight to Demon Bear's home turf, but in the process, will leave himself and the Spider-Verse forever altered! IN THIS ISSUE! Spidey finally lives up to the title of this...
Previews of the artwork caught my interest right away. I bought this without knowing who wrote the story. Once I read it I thought "well, that was weird" but weird in a good way. Once I realized who Taboo was, then I thought "oh, yeah that makes sense". Can't wait to keep reading to see where this story is going.
Deadly Neighborhood Spider-Man #1
A REVOLUTIONARY DARK TAKE ON SPIDER-MAN BEGINS HERE!
What is reality and what is dream? What is science and what is magic? At the intersection of all of this stands the Deadly Neighborhood Spider-Man. Peter Parker goes to Los Angeles and what he finds there are definitely not angels. The demons waiting for Peter are going to test him like never...
Plot is heating up to a showdown between all factions, Wolverine sure knows how to make his presence known. Just didn't see a point of having Jean Grey in the story, she talked and talked and did what exactly? You can just about skip that part and the outcome is the same.

THE BATTLE HEATS UP IN THE JUNGLES OF MADRIPOOR!
PATCH is caught between the KRASNYS, GENERAL COY'S forces, Russian paramilitary forces and S.H.I.E.L.D.!
But only one is the Best There Is At What He Does...and what he does isn't very nice! Good thing warfare ain't a nice business...

What began as simple recon lands PATCH in the midst of a war on multiple fronts!
But who is KRASNY BETH, and how does she figure into the plans of both GENERAL COY and DR. MALHEUR?
I guess Patch will never know, if she DESTROYS him with her MUTANT POWER!

RETURN TO MADRIPOOR WITH THE MAN CALLED PATCH!
ALL-NEW action, intrigue and espionage awaits you as legendary creator Larry Hama returns with a story set before his original run on WOLVERINE! The mutant known as LOGAN has made a name for himself on the mysterious island of MADRIPOOR, where the locals know him as PATCH. From their haunt at ...
Great mini-series all around. And I'm so glad to see a character that has always been the bad guy, remain a bad guy. Nowadays they all make amends, e.g. Apocalypse, Magneto, Juggernaut... I mean, I'm all for finding new ways to tell a story, but some classic characters you leave alone.
I'm also glad to see Sabretooth's story will continue with another mini-series, which I'm sure to collect.
Sabretooth #5
ALL THINGS MUST END...
...but how? Sabretooth has changed Krakoa but has Krakoa changed him? No one gets away clean in this story. And maybe there are fates even worse than the Pit.
PARENTAL ADVISORY
Feels like the main staff went on vacation and gave the issue to a 12 year old to draw it.
Wolverine #19
THE OLD MUTANT AND THE SEA!
It's the one that got away...but not for long! The deadliest creature on Krakoa is off its shore, and the deadliest mutant there is will at last set out to hunt the leviathan he encountered on an X-FORCE mission. But can WOLVERINE take down this hidden creature of the deep that's bigger and stronger and older than ma...
Percy does not disappoint. I like his continue use of past characters for building up new stories. As cliche as the ending seems, it was still unexpected and well done!
Wolverine #18
KRAKOA COMPROMISED! You've seen some action in Benjamin Percy's WOLVERINE, but never quite like this! It's a life-or-death protection mission as WOLVERINE goes on the run with his friend C.I.A. Agent Jeff Bannister when a secret surveillance device is discovered on Krakoa - and its owners are willing to kill to get it back! But who would go so far...
The real star of this issue is Bannister. This guy is so good he can have his own series! Percy's writing shines a lot more whenever he's present. Hopefully they're both here to stay.
Wolverine #17
WHO CAN YOU TRUST? MAVERICK returns to team up with WOLVERINE! Meanwhile, C.I.A. Agent Jeff Bannister has just uncovered a secret surveillance device aimed at
Krakoa. Now someone wants their bug back and Bannister out of the picture. Nowhere on or off Krakoa is safe.
