snaps: Wolverine Origins #44

... where a title like Wolverine Origins get increasingly set in the present, and nothing much about his origins really have come much into fore since Daken and the idiotic Romulus. speaking of Romulus, he's up for lamest villain ever for being a huge drama queen. instead of Logan kicking better ass, he's resorted to recruiting big petulant green aliens for allies and jailbreaking a chick mis-named after a restauant chain, with a snow globe for a head.


who-hoah! hold yer horses right there, pardner! there was a fight but i wouldn't call it "epic".


no, you don't. bet you don't have Jean Grey's number.


let me get this straight: with the superpower-dampeners in effect, shouldn't Logan be screaming in pain right now because his healing factor's not working? or are mutant powers excluded?


the prospect of gay sex stunned the ultra macho Wolverine into a few moments of silence.


that would be like kissing a fishbowl. and no, Dagger is cooking pot roast tonight.


let me ask you some: you had Wolverine dead to rights, you coulda killed him, then you leave but go back to stalking him. you are the worst kind of obsessive fan, Romulus. Glenn Close had nothing on you.

The Amazing Spider-Man #539, "Back in Black, Part 1"
J. Michael Straczynski/Ron Garney/Bill Reinhold
Marvel

all you need to know about this issue is this:


and this:


and this:


and of course, this (which was the worst-kept secret of the last few months):


some notes:
- i was lucky to get my Straczynski books, the Supreme Power TPBs, autographed at the NYCC. i thought he was done writing Spider-Man. or maybe it was the FF. anyway, this better have a nice payoff. Kingpin, gunning for Spidey? wait, wasn't he killed when DD (Matt Murdock) finally got out of jail and smoked Bullseye's and his fat ass? i gotta go back and brush up on my Daredevil.

- i don't know but somehow Ron Garney's work is getting shoddy (could it be Bill Reinhold's inks?). i mean, i had this idea of clean, dynamic art on his Captain America run with Mark Waid. i will post the "Man Without a Country" series by the end of this month as a final salute to Steve "I Believe" Rogers.

- who wants to bet if Spidey really kills someone by the end of this story arc? shouldn't he blame Tony Stark for talking him into outing himself?
