Wolverine: Weapon X (Wolverine gets 4th monthly)

Started by Grimm224 pages

I get why he has his regular title and his first class title, since they are both different concepts, but why create a fourth title that is essentially what Origins was SUPPOSED to be?

Why not just change the creative team on Origins or cancel it considering it has always sucked? I don't understand Marvel 😬

"We'll really be working to establish our own continuity, instead of mining Logan's past." The mission statement is pretty much the exact opposite of Origins.

The book is pretty much what the regular Wolverine series should be, current Wolverine stories featuring a long term creative team with a singular goal / vision. Currently the regular series is basically a string of one shots in minis published under one banner. The two should be switched IMO, but its mostly marketing, Marvel wants to have a new series for people when the Movie launches that isn't bogged down with years of nonsensical and convoluted Wolverine history.

Here is the cover of issue 1

I didn't even read the full interview so that explanation does make sense, because what I have heard it was going to dwell into Logan's past which sounded the exact same as Origins.

edit: imo

Pfft!

Spidey was strictly a solo character until about 3-4 years ago. He's had as many as 4 ongoings at one time as well, though with the weekly publication of ASM now (instead of 3 separate books with a monthly release) he's down from that total a bit. If we include Ultimate Universe stuff, though, Spidey's got his own there as well and Logan is on a team.

Wolverine's been the opposite: strictly teams until the last 10 years or so, when his popularity has soared. They're clearly 1-2 in regards to merchandising and appearances, but saying that one > other in any respect is entirely subjective due to the vast amount of material for both.

The entire series would just be wolverine getting beat up by the punisher 😂

Silver Surfer has had like two appearances the last three years.

Wolverine has 4 titles.

Preview for Weapon X #7

The weirdest Wolverine story in recent memory continues, as Logan learns more about his current residence, the Dunwich Sanitorium, and the bizarre man in charge, Dr. Algernon J. Rottwell. The good Dr. Rot seems to enjoy removing people's brains and... doing things with them. And now he has his eyes on Wolverine's noggin. If only Logan could remember how he got here. Or who he is. Or how these claws of his work...
