Wolverine (2020) (Single Issues)
Wolverine #2
THE WORST IS BACK! Wolverine has never been one to back down from a fight — not even a combined assault from Lady Deathstrike, Sabretooth and Doctor Cornelius — but the Flower Cartel might have enlisted his worst and greatest Logan himself.

"the true friends you make are like an apology for all the shit life gives you for free."
Nothing big is happening yet in this title.
Still the pale girl storyline.
Still she seems to have the upper hand, unless wolverine and the CIA guy are faking it.
She also did a successful operation on the marauder but seemingly no one was hurt bad.

Was gonna low rate this one and be ok with it, because it started off as such, great artwork and the story continues with that CIA(?) Agent and the you-know-who who's been killing people/mutants left and right, (don't remember if we got introduced to the one responsible for all this in this issue or the previous one, #1 was big so I forgot, oh well).
So, halfway through got interesting and the end was really surprising!
Really wanna see what happens next, and honestly I'm glad this story takes you out of the billion Krakoa stories that's currently all over the X-Titles (which are mostly great, but it's a good break) and we get to have some nice little mystery, and also kinda creepy too. So, I liked it!
PS. Wolverine (Percy) mentioned Johnny Cash in it? +1 Respect in my book.
PS2. Artwork is top notch!

Whoa. The creepiness has truly escalated in this issue. If you didn't take the threat of The Pale Girl seriously in issue #1, you probably will after this one.
Parental Advisory indeed.
The artwork is beautifully done and effective. I especially love how the story started with a creepy dream sequence with the Marauders at sea, and ended with Logan and Bannister on a boat in a heavy storm. Do not love how it ended though…
P.S. How many times must Jean die and be reborn again?
P.P.S. Scott Summers has no chill in every X-Men line.

At first this issue wasn't doing it for me, but then half way through it clicked, and I re-read it right away, and I loved it.
The who done it is here, the vicious murders, the mystery, and the suspense all line up well here. With Sinister and the "pale face" and drug plots all coming to a head we have Wolverine in a bind. This is well done, interesting, and fun. Give me more!

Ben Percy is killing it

La storia procede alla grande.
Toni cupi, confine labile tra realtà e inganno...
Bannister e Logan si uniscono per dare la caccia alla Pale Lady, che è chiaramente troppo forte per la squadra di Bannister e ha già spinto in precedenza Logan a far fuori i suoi amici.
Scopriamo come si rifornisce di petali, anche se per ora non sono chiari i suoi poteri: un misto di illusioni e coercizioni mentali?
Bella anche la scena con Scott.
Finale che lascia a bocca aperta, davvero un ottimo inizio per questa nuova serie!

That ending was very dark! I surprised me and caught me off guard and I like it! I like the art, original style, the story was a bit slow but the ending get it right. Interesting series!

4.5 stars. And the mystery of this Pale Girl gets deeper. The dark artwork fits this eerie tale perfectly.

Really, really good.
Continues the story established in the first issue and ups the ante in terms of both the threat and the consequences.
Some really powerful scenes and now desperate for issue 3, though god alone knows when are I'll see that these days.
Great writing and already pushing itself as a title into the upper echelons of the new X series.

I'm honestly not sure what's going on, but I'm gonna keep reading (obviously...I'm reading all the X-books for the foreseeable future) and hopefully we'll find out, eh?

Nicely done. The Pale Lady is creepy & the panel of Zombie Kate was cool as hell! This does seem to be a drastic shift in storyline though. I thought we were doing a vampire story. The switch is a little jarring. Maybe it will all come together.
Cyclops's anger about Jean dying to dumb. She's getting resurrected, everyone knows it. Wolverine was hallucinating, everyone knows it. Death has no consequences for mutants now. Chill out Scott it isn't that deep.

Percy really likes to deliver painful scenes. I think there is only one issue left in this arch--it might need more.

Intriguing start with a melodramatic ending

Pretty good. I'm sad the agent guy died, I liked him. I really hope his daughter lives. The plot is getting interesting though, I'm into it.
