610822-wolverine_69__zone_megan__pg01_super.jpgI told you about the "Old Man Logan" story running in the regular "Wolverine" series months ago and I am happy to tell you that it continues to be just as compelling in the fourth part featured in issue #69.

No spoilers except to say if you are a Mark Millar hater, don't let that keep you away from this superior teaming with artist Steve McNiven. (I don't have to say I didn't dig their "Civil War" series, that would be a waste of space... um... I just did it again didn't I?)

Nevertheless, I applaud this effort to inject what amounts to an "Elseworlds" future where the villains win and Logan is a pacifist into the mainstream title. Out of the deal we get a blind, crazy Hawkeye, a deadly roadtrip and a map of Millar's vision of which supervillains would rule. The choices are interesting.

I am a week or so late in reminding you about this, but I'm sure you all picked it up on your regular Wednesday run, and if you haven't, get it.

Let me know if you agree or not with this great run on "Wolverine."
