2.197 (562) Wolverine & Black Cat 2 Claws #1 ... Marvel ...

Yes we know we have reviewed the first issue of the first mini series rather recently. So why this, eh? Well ... why not is our answer. Heh! Actually, there is no particular reason except that we are curious how this one will turn out and to be honest ... Mr Linsner the artist assigned to this series is awesome but to me, his artwork largely is not suited to a tale like this. He should be given space to shine at what he does best i.e. women

Look at the cover. Look at Black Cat who looked so snugged in her costume. Awesome, right? Then look at Wolverine. You cannot think of him as someone who is rugged, nasty, bad tempered and whatever else because he just looked somehow goofy/ silly/ a pathetic clown. Sorry, folks, that's our opinion and the story itself is a continuation of part 1

Apparently, after that adventure, both Cat and Logan decided to get together to ... share memories ... say thanks to each other? Well, whatever it is, it is lame as it is just an excuse to get them together and before you know it, BAM time for another adventure ... so where to this time?

An alternate reality ... to be more specific, one where a cult Marvel series has taken root i.e. the War of the Worlds universe where Martians are conquering planet after planet and earth has fallen with its few remaining free men trying to make a stand wherever they may. Yup, you read that right. For those who are interested, Alan Davis did a recent take on this character in a 6-issue mini-series that has its highs and many lows

And here at the end of issue 1, if you are not familiar with them, you will be left with many questions. Will it make you go to find the next issue? For us, the answer is nope. We will do so if nothing else catches our eyes and we have time on our hands
