Okay, so I pick up the latest issue of Wolverine with new series writer Mark Millar and super-cool artist John Romita Jr.
I don't want to ruin it for those of you who haven't read it, but what the heck. Apparently, Hydra's got control of Wolverine, and now he's loose in SHIELD HQ, and probably before this six-parter's over with, Wolvie's going to have to tangle with every super-hero in the Marvel Universe.
But this all seems so familar with me...
Let's see, a couple years ago, Erik Larsen (of Savage Dragon fame) started off his run on Wolverine, by having Wolvie's body possessed by some kind of alien and then he had to fight all sorts of super-heroes. Does that ring any bells?
Shame on you, Millar. The least you could do was wait a couple of years before reusing story ideas like Chris Claremont, who probably has it down to a fine art by now.
Oh, and the wrap-around cover and the last page splash? Super-cool. Keep up the good work, Romita!

Doesn't Wolverine always fight others? Can't he learn to play nicely with the other mutants? Maybe he needs to go to some sort of training school- anger managment classes- or Basic Manners 101 with the most goody-goody Cyclops.
