Check out a review for another current Wolverine comic: Laura Kinney: WOLVERINE.
The Story for Issue 7
Believed to have been rotting on The Raft, Romulus is doing anything but. Full of ancient stories and a need for power, Romulus goes claw to claw with Logan as he tells the story of The Adamantine. As well as the lie that he believes is adamantium. While, Wolverine is the best at what he does, a literal god complex and a lot of strength make for a dangerous recipe. This is all leading up to the next issue: the 400th issue of WOLVERINE.
The Art
Issue 7 went full Wolverine fight scenes. As Romulus and Wolverine fight, the close ups, far away shots, and everything in between were all epic and gorgeous. Amongst the chaos of violence and claws, there’s a history lesson. Drawn beautifully along side the continual battle for survival.
Overall Grade: 9/10
I have loved this run from the beginning. WOLVERINE hits everything I love about a Wolvie story with lots of unexpected twists and turns. Seeing Romulus at the end of issue 6 got me pumped for what’s to come. Throw in all the ancient stories from Romulus alongside his plans in this issue, and I couldn’t be more pumped for the upcoming 400th issue. Coming out in April.
If you haven’t jumped into this story yet, there’s still time to catch up for the ultimate showdown of Wolverine V. Romulus. SNIKT!
