Puts an interesting twist on a number of superhero myths and timelines

This House of M volume tackles the mutant regime across a few different titles. Daniel Way's Wolverine offering sees SHIELD Agent Mystique reporting on a Mexican mission gone bad - leaving Wolverine in the wind. Mystique's report draws in the espionage tactics of Nick Fury and Logan's early days in the House of M, but places the emphasis squarely on the manipulations of the blue-skinned shapeshifter. Reginald Hudlin shows that despite being human, Black Panther can hold his own against the mutan...

EntertainingCap's arc was the highlight and is still relevant today. Recommended for kindle but save your money on the paperback.

the first few stories were good but the last ones suck.

The cap story in the last part was good. Everything else is...meh. I mean, it’s an interesting concept...but these stories are a poor example of uniquely exploring that.

So what bugs me about the HOUSE OF M is that unlike, say, the AGE OF APOCALYPSE--an alternate reality created by an event that was changed from ours that occurred 20 years on the past, allowing 20 years of story to accumulate to the point we the audience are brought in--the HOUSE OF M was generated by Wanda in literally a day. So all the memories, all the "events" that led to the reader's entry into the world: they're implants, hastily created forgeries to help our characters assimilate into the...

The best of the House of M tie-ins. Daniel Way fleshes out the Wolverine Agent Of SHIELD story by focusing on his relations to Mystique and Nick Fury is better crafted than the core House Of M story.I recommend this for all fans of temporary X-lore (it only takes place during House of M, and then is retconned), Mystique enthusiasts, and Wolverine-heads.

hmmm

The final addition to the collective House of M story arc before it moves on includes a few comics of Wolverine, with Mystique taking more of a center stage unfortunately for me, and several other comics that tie in some loose ends, namely Black Panther and Storm, Hawkeye, and Captain America.Although, overall, the whole collection is good, I crave more Wolverine and less Mystique and more Hawkeye than what this provides. Still, the story is moving and shows the true deterioration of Wanda Maxim...

Daniel Way's arc on Wolverine is fascinating in so much that, while it is an alternate history where Wolverine's rivalry with Nick Fury is a defining feature, he is a supporting character in his own story. Indeed, Mystique is actually the main character, but Way uses this to get into the world of M and what S.H.I.E.L.D would look like very compellingly. Reginald Hudlin's one-off with Black Panther leading a resistance against the House of M is also fairly good, Storm and Panther continue their d...

These are really great companion stories to the main House of M event (which I have to say, I enjoyed the main event as well). It is timely that I read this since the Black Panther and Storm are King and Queen of Wakanda in one of the arcs.

Collecting a few odds & ends from the House of M tie-ins, including - obviously - the 3-part Wolverine story, in which our favourite, over-exposed, adamantium-skeletoned, healing-factored, Snikt! -makin' mutant is relegated to a supporting player role. Here, then, are the reviews for the individual parts comprising this overall strong collection:Wolverine #33-35 - 4 starsWolverine's jumping ship (literally - from the House of M mini-series) is investigated by SHIELD Director Sebastian Shaw. T...

Continuing the great X-read of 2017 (and we are actually back to one of the books that makes it “great” finally)…This is probably the strongest of the side volumes of House of M. While the Wolverine/Mystique story was pretty good (it is what keeps this volume from hitting five stars for me), the Black Panther and Captain America single issue stories were absolutely fantastic. Both had strong plots while also having strong emotional cores. The Black Panther issue in particular also really tackled...

It sure is differentThis book gives a whole new perspective on the characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The storyline with Wolverine and Mystique, for instance.

A Wolverine story where Mystique takes center stage and Wolvie is just a supporting character. It's all about Wolverine and Nick Fury's history together in House of M. I loved the ending. Also included are some odds and ends solo stories of Black Panther, Captain America and Hawkeye in House of M.

A mishmash of House of M stories, tying up some loose ends. The spinoffs weren't necessarily my favorite thing, but these were more entertaining than some of the others. I enjoyed the Wolverine story, and the ARC of the Captain America story felt the most applicable to present day.

If this only included the Wolverine story, it would probably be one-star. The big problem with the Wolverine story is that it tells you about a character you never see in the House of M main story (because when he “wakes up” he knows his real life and this tells you about his fake one). So it tries to say something unique about the character you never saw which somehow reflects on the Logan pre-Wanda reality rewrite. And it never feels like it says anything of import.The Cap story is fine, thoug...

“Boys sheathed in metal shouldn’t threaten Storm Goddesses.” The highlight of these issues definitely were Queen Ororo and Hawkeye, showstoppers. Also, Wolverine being supporting character in his own comic, peak comedy. Ily Mystique.And yeah… Steve can still get it.

This story fills in Wolverine's history in the new House of M universe. While not crucial to the event's plot it's still an interesting story that examines Wolverine's connections to Nick Fury and Mystique as well as the internal struggle that motivates him in this new world.This is still a decent addition but is definitely not required reading and is virtually retconned early in the main series.

All the stories in this trade are in the House of M reality, so there’s nothing really here that anyone needs to go out of their way to read, but there’s some fun gems in here.I am mostly familiar with Daniel Way from his Deadpool run, so I was pleasantly surprised by the decently crafted Wolverine story. The Captain America issue was a fun inclusion as I believe it is or was omitted from the trade paperbacks for Brubaker’s run (unsure if it is in the Captain America omnibuses). The former is a
