I, like many people, am a Wolverine fan. He's an archetype, the grizzled sensitive badass with a heart of gold. He's a great character, and this (for all its intents and purposes) is the origin story of he went from being "Logan" to Wolverine. I got this book and read it expecting some magic, however I was slightly disappointed. There's some good moments: Logan being captured, cutting off the hand of his captor, Logan being burned to a crisp and going head-to-head with a Siberan Tiger are some of them. However the story is too confusing, it's dreams within dreams and often gets bogged down. However when it's running smoothly, it's amazing. What's always amazing is Windsor-Smith's art. This is a book filled with technological devices, fights, gore and other complex visuals. Windsor-Smith handles them all superbly. While this book may be a bit of a headache at times, it's got good moments and great art.
