After finally picking up steam in his second volume, Marvel made the right creative change bringing in Mark "Civil War" Millar and artist John Romita, Jr. And with the pair of them, the action octane and the "best there is at what I do" suddenly gave us the whole picture. You know how Wolvie always promises so much tough guy talk and minimal violence scene?Here? No holds barred, people! About the only thing that actually makes the violence less gory is JR's artwork with its clean lines and almost cartoony figures that packed so much emotion and life!
So what's this arc about? Basically it is the first of 2 joined arc - this is Enemy of the State where Wolvie gets kidnapped and somehow (we won't SPOIL it) brainwashed into serving the Hand (lame ass ninja assassins). And in turn, this means he goes out recruiting selected super-powered villains and heroes for the Hand while simultaneously cutting through those who stand in his way ... and what a lot of people that is and is going to be!
After the arc is over will be where Wolvie stands on the side of the good but for these 2 issues?
Enjoy the violence!
