I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Wolverine: Manifest Destiny #1 - Marvel
This story also appears to be dealing with some of Logan's past transgressions . . or sins. Since the team is located in San Francisco now, he's decided to venture into China-town and tie up some loose ends from his past. But I get the feeling when he travels into China-town . . he's not really asking for forgiveness, or offering an apology. I get the feeling that he more on a mission to rub the fact that he's still alive in these people's faces. He's been to China-town before, but on those visits, he traveled incognito, or without arousing attention. This time . . he's purposefully attracting attention. But, he also appears to be getting a much more . . rallied response, than he expected. His final thoughts in this book, as he's looking upon the aged visage of his ex-girlfriend, . . . "Okay . . . this is officially going to be harder than I thought." I really enjoyed Jason Aaron's take on Logan's character with this book. I think he's really got a good feel for him. But I thought the real star of the book was Stephen Segovia. Stephen's artwork was tremendous throughout this issue. I enjoyed the feel of his pages and I really like the flow of his art. Everything moved along seamlessly. I picked up this mini-series on a lark . . it's not like we don't have enough Wolverine stories out there right now, but . . I'm really happy that I did. Although, had the price been $3.99, like some of Marvel's more recent special issues, I probably would've passed it up. That would've been a shame, because this is a nice book.
