Okay okay okay. Wolverine's neck is far too big. You got me. I admit it. His head is too small for his neck, which is too big for his body. The close up shots in this issue made me realize this. As well as finding fault with the art, I'm now finding fault with the writing. Guggenheim had a strong conspiracy set up in the first 3 issues. But this issue, it just falls flat. We got a lot of talking in the first half of the book, explaining that Damage Control got the cleanup contract for Stamford. Bigger the Boom, the more work, the more money Damage Control gets. THATS IT? I know that in the issue "there is more to it" but c'mon! What corporation wants people to die? Especially kids? That part does not click with me. We see Wolverine trying to damage Damage Control, but we just get set-up, we never see him do it so I cannot tell you exactly what he did. Destroy Buildings, steal money, and kill people? Mmmmm Maybe.... In a Wolverine book, that's like promising to a kid Santa Claus is on vacation during Christmas this year. Seeing as how there is only one issue left for this arc I'm left wondering how Guggenheim is going to finish this. One of the coolest things about the first issues of this arc was the hint that we'd see the real reasons behind Civil War, but here, that is not the case. Too bad, because that would've made a kick-ass story. D
D? Oh dude you cannot tell me that scene with him just busting on Emma Frost and Cyclops wasn't fan-freakin-tastic
Wolverine: Emma...Does Scott know you used to team up with Iron Man?...So to Speak.
HA HA, I about busted out laughing
Ok, those two pages were funny, and were the best part of the book, but compared to where this series was going before, this issue is not that good. Thus the D I gave it.
