Wolverine wrasslin' dinosaurs. Simonson riffing on Turok. Mignola channeling Frazetta. And for some reason Logan is played by Benicio Del Toro in this comic. All that makes for a book worth checking out, right?

Damn Man! You didn't even take a day to enjoy having the Marevl list up before posting a review, you're unstoppable!

It's nice to see a review for a prestige and I'm impressed that you're able to have enough material with it for an adequate review.
I like that darker looking wolverine, but I'm glad they finally revealed that Apocalypse is the "long lost Evil Muppet!" That must have been why Beaker was always so skidish.

Wow Chris I thought you were a TRO-addict, this is an old review just reposted to help drive more interest for newcomers to the site, obviously somehow this one review had managed to slip your gaze/memory.

And yeah it's an awesome but by the sounds of it :)

Honestly, sometimes it's a lot easier to review a shorter story. Keep in mind that most reviews out there are for single issues! It's much harder to tackle a book that has many different artists or a wide selection of stories.

 

When you have a single team on a contained story, you really get to examine it in more detail.

So true. I always feel when I'm doing a review of a "best-of style" book that I'm doing a disservice to some stories by trying to cover all of them. Then again, the presentation of the material kind of begs that response from the reader, and maybe it's good to cover anything since it seems unlikely that anyone else out there is going to the trouble of reviewing those kinds of books as cohesive whole. (I'm thinking specifically of my review of Iron Man/Captain America, by the way.)
