After an unexpected break, we have finally returned, and we're diving back into the X-Men comic world for an in-depth look at one of the most popular Wolverine stories of all time. That's right, it's finally time to x-amine OLD MAN LOGAN, from superstar creators Mark Millar and Steve McNiven. In this future-set tale, we meet an older, broken Logan, who has not popped his claws in fifty years, and lives a quiet family life in a supervillain-controlled America with no more superheroes. What led to Logan's new pacifist stance? And will a mysterious mission with an elderly, nearly-blind Hawkeye bring back the Wolverine we all know and love? We run through all eight issues of this classic 2008 event, sharing our thoughts on both the highlights and some of the more questionable elements.
But first, a brief discussion of the current ugliness plaguing the world of fandom, as well as our take on the surprising fallout of the recently released X-MEN: GOLD #30, featuring the long-awaited wedding of Kitty Pryde and Colossus. Or did it??
