Saya harus kasih bintang lima untuk komik ini. Cerita dan gambarnya benar-benar menyatu dengan baik. Ilustrasinya luar biasa. Komik ini berbeda dengan komik-komik Wolverine pada umumnya. Wolverine, anggota X-Men yang terkenal senang berdarah-darah itu, biasanya digambarkan dengan gaya ilustrasi yang selalu "gelap" dan "brutal". Tapi di nomor pertama seri Wolverine: Origin #1 ini saya mendapati ilustrasinya nyaris indah. Kisah tiga anak kecil di rumah besar dengan problema, perbedaan, dan pertikaian orang dewasa di sekitar mereka ini terasa klasik.

Sebagian besar cerita ditampilkan dari sudut pandang Rose, anak perempuan berusia 12 tahun, yang bekerja di rumah besar keluarga Howlett sebagai teman James, putera John Howlett yang ringkih dan penyakitan. Di rumah itu pula, hadir seorang anak kecil lain, anak tukang kebun bernama Logan. Ketiganya bersahabat meskipun perbedaan antara orang kaya dan orang miskin selalu dipermasalahkan oleh kakek James dan ayah Logan. Nomor ini adalah pembuka dari enam nomor miniseri riwayat hidup Wolverine.

I discovered the X-Men through a novel I was reading (Eleanor And Park) and this was the first comic I could find in the humongous series of comics. And I'm glad this was it. I watched a few of the books before turning to the comics (I'm not a huge comics fan) and Logan was always the character that interested me most. So I guess it's only fair to begin here.

Though I gotta say, this volume has left me befuddled. I hope everything will be clearer as I read the rest of the series :)

I am not a graphic novel or comic fan, and this one was tough for me to get through - about halfway through I quit because I just couldn't do it anymore. The print was small and graphics dark and hard to follow, but I fully admit that could be because I just have a tough time with some graphics/comics.

I've been wanting to get the backstory on the common super heroes for awhile, but after multiple failed attempts at the printed versions, I am going to have to stick to the movies.

It was there, so I read it. Made for a fairly entertaining early morning jaunt, but as I'm not much into comic books, all I'm really qualified to say is that it was pretty ok.

Well, I have to say: this was a good start to the story. I admit I was a little bit confused about what is happening but I got through it. I'm certain the next few issues will clear up the air for me. And even if they don't, I have anyway watched the movies for a little back story now, haven't I? Hehe.
