Reviews

[Molly · Rating 4 out of 5]

It’s a blast to read these old comics. I do feel that a story takes a while to get going and drags because the conflicts sometimes feel endless.

[Sophia · Rating 3 out of 5]

Actual rating 2.5 stars.
Surprisingly, not so interested in the Wolverine parts of this issue.
I believe this and the next issue are part of an ongoing story that I don’t know much about (again, why did they do that??)

Kingpin hired Tiger Shark who then gets into a fight with Bandera (a mutant who's power inspires others to fight with her). Wolverine stumbles across them...

Anyway, the issue ends with Wolvey fighting against Tiger Shark in the middle of the ocean (not a good idea)...
