I haven't been reading New Avengers long and in that short time I've seen him bang Wasp, Wanda and Echo. So yeah, he's a dawg all right.

Ok I finally read it and am cought up I think.. Well, I am still not sure WHY its in the solo book, when its obviously an alternate universe. I mean some ppl will get confused and new comers will believe it to be canon.. thats a problem.
BUT... I like it. I HATE the idea of wolverine being some pacifist.. its just so out of character. I have been a Wolverine fan since the early 90s.. and I think I have a pretty good idea about how Logan would turn out.. and a peace loving "I will not resort to violence" type isn't it.
Still, that being said, its a fun read and I think/hope Logans going to finally pop!
Hawkeye.. yeah that whole thing made sense to me. The mother wasn't really what I was expecting though. I mean.. she looked pretty old.. so did Petey hook up with an older chick?? Well maybe not...
Anyway fun stuff so far.

Just read the Suadade one shot. It was all right, nothing new or special there. I wonder if I am simply getting jaded after reading Wolverine for too long. It still seems to me like they are simply rehashing the same stories all over again.

I haven't read it yet, but I think I know what you mean. Why are they overkilling it so much with one-shots. We should write them and tell them about it.

That last picture of Gambit makes him look so feminine.

A lot of people have been saying that. The thing is, he is probably supposed to be 14/15 in that so in their attempt to make him youthful, they went a bit far. I don't mind it that much, but maybe they should have toned down the magenta a bit.

Yeah he looks girly, but i can see him as being a young boy instead. Plus I know its gambit, so yeah.. i guess it looks like a girly adolescent boy:)
And yet MORE wolverine?? If they are good I will be happy.. if they are like the last few one-shots.. I won't be;(

Forgot one thing. This we were not told to keep secret. So don't be surprised if Marvel announces another ongoing series starring Wolverine written by Jason Aaron.

What!? I love Wolverine.. he is by far my favorite as you all know, but my lord, what is Marvel thinking?? They have to get rid of him in some others than like the new avengers.. Astonishing is fine cuz its astonishing but the other team titles they need to get ride of.
If its an ultimate wolverine book though I would be nothing by happy... 616 has too much going on.. I blame the number of one-shots for my feelings though. Too many unneeded 1shots.

Just read the annual and it was quite good. I was a bit late on it because it was solicited as a one shot called Roar, but then it turned out to be the annual instead. They guys at my shop had no clue what it was and didn't put any in our folders I was lucky it didn't sell out. It's the best of all the one shots we've gotten lately no matter what its name was.
