After enjoying Hugh Jackman's portrayal of Wolverine in the X-Men films, I was looking forward to reading his first solo appearance in comics. Wolverine is an enjoyable and memorable story of romance and action that leaves a lasting impression.

The story follows Wolverine's return to Japan to visit his old flame, and what follows is a story that breaks Wolverine down and builds him back up again in a way that will make you unable to resist audibly cheering for him as he fights to regain his honor and discover his own humanity. This comic feels like a perfect blend between old and new styles of the medium: the pencils by the talented (not yet legendary when this was first published) Frank Miller evoke a modern sensibility, while the colors are old-fashioned, but still have a coherent palate. Claremont uses plenty of internal monologue to convey Wolvie's thoughts and feelings as the story progresses, and it works quite well. One can't help but wonder if Frank Miller picked up on this style and later used it to great effect in Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One. The art and writing converge to near perfection near the end of the third issue, including what might be one of my favorite pages in all of comics, and perhaps the one page that would define who Wolverine is more than any other. You'll know it when you read it: it's good stuff.

The two issues from Uncanny X-Men are nice to have from a value standpoint, but ultimately unnecessary and less serious than the limited series that precedes it in the trade. They focus on the aftermath of the events in Wolverine on the X-Men and are ultimately forgettable on their own. If you are a fan of the X-Men you may get more mileage out of these. Frank Miller is NOT the artist on these issues, which is unfortunate because his pencils were quite good on Wolverine. Still, you can't complain about added extras when they don't detract from the main event.

Wolverine is a fascinating and exciting read that I would recommend to anyone who has an interest in the character. It was an excellent starting point for me personally, having no prior knowledge about Wolvie from comic books, only from the movies. It is a story that you will want to read again after finishing it. It's just that good.

Read it if you like: Hugh Jackman's portrayal, Japanese culture, Good Sequential Art and Storytelling

Don't read it if you dislike: Added bloat in the form of extra issues (although I don't believe that they take away from the actual story, and I'll take all the value I can get)

Wolverine Chris Claremont Frank Miller Books Reviews

Great Novel by the team of Claremont and Miller. The story was different then the movie but still great and the artwork is classic of the work from the 1980s. Good graphic novel.
This edition reprints one of the best mini-series of the 1980s. That is the Wolverine mini-series by writer Chris Claremont and artists Frank Miller and Klaus Jansen. Many of the elements in this series can be seen in the movies that came later on like the X-men and Wolverine. The art in this series is fantastic. Done by Frank Miller before he started getting weird. Included in this edition are two stories from the Uncanny X-men comic that continues the story from the mini-series. These aren't as good but the first four issues are worth it.
A great story that defines Wolverine, who was still a relatively new character at the time. The writing is pretty sharp, and still holds up well 35 years later.
Miller's art is really good at times, a little rushed looking in places, but always lacking in background details.
I read this as prep for the movie (The Wolverine) later in the day, and I have to say it had me looking forward to how this source material gets interpreted. As graphic novels go, this one is pretty solid and it was fun to see good old spandex wearing yellow Wolverine after several years of the movies and Ultimate versions. The title feels (as well it was) like part of a series, and though it is standalone, you can't shake the feeling that you joined proceedings in media res - and being volume 1, it leaves you off with a cliffhanger.

I'm just glad I took in some proper 616 canon. Was great to see the X-men of yore all together. The art is nice, though I confess to having missed the more modern style from the Ultimate U, not least the full page action/ hero shots. The plot is unpredictable and the characterisation is solid; vintage Miller really. The man has revived so many doddering franchises (Daredevil, Batman) that what he does with the iconic Wolverine is in that sense predictably delightful. Well worth the money.
The original 4 issue comic miniseries that served to inspire the movie. Quite a bargain as the original issues inthis series is frequently priced over 100 US dollars. More attuned to Japanese culture and traditions and more about sword skills. A unique read. I like the comics better than the movies.

Early Frank Miller art and when Chris Claremont was on point.
This is my favorite Wolverine story arc. If you are a fan of Wolverine, this is a must have. The complete limited series. Not a thick book, but the content is above pretty much any other Wolverine book. Miller's art is as always, perfect. Claremont as always, knows how to spin a good yarn. This book was the basis for The Wolverine movie, let me tell you, this book is superior.
Man, this shows the 1980s mentality to Japan in such detail. Things we take for granted, today are in this book. I am amazed Miller and Claremont can look themselves in the mirror, these days. The comic is a wonder. The writing does not stand the test of time, though. The artistry is excellent, however. It reads like a movie about shame and redemption. It's a solid buy if you can stand the references. Yukio is a solid character! Wolvie gets torn by the traditional and the lawless, for a time. It's a great Hero's Journey into a different culture. East meets West and it's a conflict both inside and out!
