Wow. Flabbergasted with that ending! I was genuinely engaged throughout and then that's the ending? I mean, come on! I expected a shock an awe conclusion. I'm still giving it 4 stars because I still enjoyed it and really liked the series of sketches included. Ending just feels like a bit of a let down.

In the grand tradition of War and Peace, The Social Contract, and The Cat in the Hat Comes Back, Marvel gives us another narrative whose title tells us pretty much all we need to know about its contents. The question is…should you read it? Brief rant: it would be impossible for this to be a 5-star book. Why? 5-star books are not created as a result of editorial-driven attempts to induce a massive sales spike and foster interest in the long, multi-titled buildup to a beloved character’s inevitabl...

Remember Jason Aaron’s Punisher MAX run a few years ago? That series killed off the classic Punisher, the Vietnam vet Frank Castle, and subsequently resurrected him as a thirtysomething vet of an unnamed war (so as not to date him). But the way Aaron killed off Frank was glorious: a heavily beaten Frank managed to kill his way through his greatest enemies before finally falling himself. It was so perfect it remains my favourite character death storyline ever. So now it’s Charles Soule’s turn to

You Smell That? That's this pile of shit.Crazy part is I enjoy most of Soule's stuff. This reeeeeeeeks editorial interference like no other. Marvel: Know what would be cool? Soule: Hm? Marvel: Kill off Wolverine. Soule: You mean the guy who nearly can't BE kill? Marvel: YES! Soule: Why? Marvel: BECAUSE IT'S BIG NEWS. Soule: But...how?Marvel: I dunno. Who cares? Let's sell it! That's what this is. Throwing four separate issues that somewhat contact but have no heart, emotion, or ANYTHING to give

I cared about this "event" enough to actually buy the single issues so I could read it sooner, and let me say that as an adult with a career, it is a real pain in the ass to hump over to the comic store four separate Wednesdays knowing that by Thursday they'd be sold out. Of course, afterward, when a friend of mine just asked why I didn't buy the single issues digitally, I could only shake my head that I didn't think of that beforehand. It's a brave new world we live in. Anyway, as for the comic...

Fun fact, my parents actually named me after Wolverine, hence my name Logan! Not sure what to say, I'm pretty sad after reading this, he's really gone... and now they replaced him with X-23 to boost their sales, with the female demographic! Artwork was pretty good, story is good, even though my second favourite super hero is gone! I know we have Old Man Logan running around, but its just not the same. Wolverine has always been the hero you cheer for no matter what, comics and movies alike! This

2.5 starsThe art is too gorgeous for that abrupt wet fart of an ending.Warning: potential spoilersHowever, I appreciated that Soule kept this turd of a storyline blessedly short. Yes, yes...Wolverine is dying.Pffft. As if Marvel was going to permanently retire this moneymaker? Get real. This death meant less than nothing and everyone knew it.But the story itself wasn't as horrible or tedious as I was expecting, so there's that.But that ending.He could have literally done any number of things to

This comic was better than I thought it was going to be. The artwork is great; the story is quite slow really. I am sure that everyone reading this was knew Wolverine was going too especially with the 3 months build up to it. Just as I am sure everyone knows he will be back. The book is a lot shorter and quicker read then it looks. It has big panels of artwork which I think suit Wolverine perfectly. The last 5th of the book of the book is the director's cut pages of the book. I have to say I am

Logan lost his healing factor. Now, a lot of people from his past want to get back at him.It's always nice to see McNiven's art.As for the story, it's not bad, I liked some bits of it, especially the first and the last chapters. They were good.However, the 2nd and 3rd were pretty average, in my opinion.It would've helped a lot if I knew who Ogun was, it kinda damaged it a tad for me. Overall, hmm, I dunno, it was a mixed bag for me. Most of the Wolverine comics that I read tended to suck. That b...

Yikes was that underwhelming, to say the least.It has a few good testosterone-pumping scenes (Would you even be allowed to put the name Wolverine on the cover if you didn't?) but it is such a shallow story, especially for what is the death of one of the most beloved characters in comics. Logan has lost his healing ability and people are now hunting him, so he decides to take the fight to the main baddie who keeps putting the contracts out. It doesn't go down well for Ol' Canucklehead. That's the...

I loved it!Caught up on Old Man Logan by reading Vol 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5. Then from issue #25 on. Now I am back tracking via digital comics to see what happened to our current timeline Logan. Very good ending storyline. But please, no one really thinks Logan is dead do they? Cannot wait until Old Man Logan meets Wolverine. Now which post Wolverine series will i move onto? Maybe the Weapon X one?

Captain Kirk: Bones, can you do anything for him?McCoy: I’m a doctor not a sheet metal worker! Besides he’s dead, Jim.Spock: Captain, if I may interject an opinion. Wolverine’s death is highly illogical. You said it, you pointy-eared Vulcan bastard! The build up to this final volume has been spotty but entertaining in spurts. Wolverine loses his healing factor, becomes mortal and brushes aside any of Marvel’s resident genius’s attempts to help him recover. In the meantime, he’s a marked man and

This is a really weird way to send out a character like Wolverine. It basically just reads as four random issues in the middle of a regular Wolverine run, not like the major event that will send out one of Marvel's best-known characters. As a death event, it's kind of blah.But the weird thing is that if you read the first three issues as just plain old Wolverine issues, they're actually quite good. Soule could have turned in a really nice Wolverine run, if given the chance. He's got Logan's pers...

I find myself...underwhelmed.Don't get me wrong, Steve McNiven's art was bang on; Charles Soule has Wolverine's mannerisms, character, and way of speech down better than anyone since Rick Remender's X-Force Logan. Hell, I even understand what they were doing with the actual death, and what it was supposed to mean/represent.I just thought...it was kind of an insult to Wolverine in some ways. I know you can't all go out like Butch and Sundance, but Logan seemed to be destined for some great end, a...

Wolverine lost his healing factor some time ago. He checked with all the smartest people he knows to restore it to no avail. Now a capture contract for Wolverine has been put out for Wolverine, but he's not going anywhere without a fight.So Wolverine is the latest victim of the trend of killing characters in Marvel. He'll undoubtedly return at some point, but for now he's dead. This sort of thing would be a spoiler if not for the title Death of Wolverine. Could there be a lazier way to go about

I would probably give this a one-star rating if I were a bigger Wolverine fan and had some sort of nostalgic attachment to the character. As far as a regular comic story goes, this is a 2-star book. It has some nice action, good artwork, and cool characters. The story itself is alright. Really, it's nothing special. The ending, where Wolverine 'dies' is really disappointing. As a fan, I would be pissed. It's silly, contrived, and unsatisfying. I would rather have Wolverine die in battle with a v...

If anyone were to ask me what was the most underwhelming graphic novel I've ever read, Death of Wolverine would be my straight out answer. It always sucks when your favorite superhero of all time got a not so good plot. Not so good in a way that the ending ruined it all, or let me change that, the length ruined it all.Wolverine started to lose his healing powers, so that means he's not the immortal mutant we've gotten used to. He has to fight mano-a-mano with the people hired to capture him for

I thought this was a very good graphic novel. I've become a huge fan of Wolverine. I guess my buddy has rubbed off on me, because he's the biggest Wolverine fan on earth. This has everything you might like about the character. You see inside his soul and you see how sucky his life is in the sense that he has to fight, it's not an option. Wolverine has lost his healing factor, and that is a very bad thing for a person who has to fight as often and as hard as he does. Death is literally right arou...

This one was bad maybe semi-decent.Wolverine has lost his healing factors and well is asking his friends to solve this but well nothing but when he gets attacked by Nuke and then finding its Viper and then going against Sabretooth and Lady deathstrike and then Ogun and how it connects to Cornelius, it makes for an intriguing storyline and everything. It has lots of promise but little execution and the problem is that while the scene that should make you emotional is there, it doesn't hit that ha...

In honour of Jackman hanging up his claws from playing movie Wolverine I thought I would grab the much talking about Death of Wolverine (Spoiler Alert??)I was surprised at the relatively short run, I guess I'm a bit cynical, I love comic books but so often the sagas become bloated, cross-over overblown stories. Death of Wolverine was a clipped succinct almost rushed tale with almost zero fat to trim. While the movie Logan isn't based on this story (more Old Man Logan) there were a few themes and...
