Wolverine #54 - Marvel


We still haven't wrapped up this latest Wolverine storyline. And to tell you the truth . . . this issue doesn't lend that much light to the situation. All we really find out this issue is that somehow Weapon-X is involved in all of this. Sabretooth knows a whole lot more than he's letting on. But when isn't that the case. Also there's someone that was in Weapon-X that's even larger, more savage, and scarier that Creed. If that's possible. In fact in Logan's flashback's, Creed even seems to be scared of him. Oh . . we also learn that WildChild is a lot more wild, and less of a child, than we were formerly led to believe. In fact he's down right savage. Not as big as Creed. But just as mean. And for some reason, he's having flashbacks of WWII, and some skirmish's he was in with Captain America. He didn't realize it at the time, but Creed was also there. As was WildChild. But that was years before he actually remembers their first meeting. He's dreaming all this on his way from Wakanda back to Canada to the Weapon-X complex. He really doesn't even know where they're headed, or that they've left Wakanda, until he wakes up on the plane with Feral, Thornn, Wolfsbane and Sasquatch. But even as fast as they came back, someone brought Creed back faster, because Logan finds him inside the complex. " . . . somebody went to a lot of trouble just to truss Creed up like a Christmas goose . . .". Of course Creed breaks out. Logan always waits just a little to long to deliver his justice. But Creed is more savage and primal than ever. In fact, upon chasing him out of the complex, Logan finds Sasquatch laying in a pool of his own blood, Wolfsbane in a state of shock, and Creed standing over the eviscerated body of Feral. It looks like he's still feasting on her. Looks like we're in for a pretty big fight next issue. This book gives us the usual superb story by Jeph Loeb. And Simone Bianchi turns in another phenomenal issue. And cover. I love these cliff-hanger endings.
