Wolverine #66


The old man Logan story starts here. The villains had finally beaten the heroes. With some dead and some in exile the universe had became a changed place. None can officially confirm what happened to the man known as Wolverine other than that he had disappeared. 50 years latter we see Logan now settled down with 2 kids and a wife. That wasn't the only change for Logan his attitude was the biggest no longer the enraged Wolverine but now he is now more of a pacifist. But life isn't easy still for Logan. Facing with not coming up with his"rent" money in this new world Logan encounters the Hulk gang ( Bruce "The Hulk" Banner's grandchildren). Who is trying to collect on Logan's debt for his rent. The Hulk gang Beats Logan down and tells him he owes double next month. Hawkeye (now Blind) comes to tend to Logan's wounds. This is when Hawkeye tells Logan that he has a job for him. He needs a package to be delivered across country and he needs Logan to be the navigator. The job would pay 500.00 if Logan took it. Logan understanding that it's a lot of money accepts the job and heads out with Hawkeye to now changed world......

I really enjoyed this issue. My only concerns with it right now are that it's an 8 issue story i just hope that they don't get too caught up in a back story that it takes away from the actually story. Or that the story doesn't begin to get redundant after a while. I think that this would have been great for it's own mini series but not a part of the Wolverine title. But over all it's a great issue the art is amazing and the story is a very interesting one that should get you hooked. So go out and grab this one.
