At the end of last issue, Logan had discovered that there was a group called Blackguard. Apparently they had gotten their hands on the old Weapon X files, including how to synthesize Adamantium. When he found their base, he discovered that they had already put the technology to use . . . 12 times. So now he's on his way to Columbia. He'd discovered that Blackguard was operating out of this country. But nobody knew to much about them. Logan swaggers into the local bar and decides to let them come to him. He makes enough noise that there's no way they couldn't know that he's there. Of course, when he comes out of the bar, they're in the nearby woods waiting for him. It isn't to long though before they find him coming after them. When they switch to combat mode they aren't to much for conversation. Logan's fighting them to see what they're made of. "Animal like senses, enhanced strength and reflexes. Probably drug induced. Maybe some bionic implants as well. Healing factor. Artificially engineered. Techno-organic. These fellas ain't mutants. They got nanites in their blood to regrow tissue. Unbreakable Adamantium bones. These boys got the complete make-over. About the only thing they missing is . .", ZZikt . ."Oh, you gotta be kidding me. Some sort of energy blades." It appears that Logan may have met his match in these fellas. But at least there's only 2 of them . . . well, at least until the other 10 arrive. Logan may have bit off a little more than he can chew here. Oh, and I forgot to mention, when they first targeted him they were going to shoot him with bullets that would implant him with 28 different kinds of cancer. They figured if they didn't kill him, they'd at least slow him down. Anyways, Logan decides to choose the better part of valor . . and he high-tails it into the woods. There, I think he's planning on picking them off 1 at a time. And, there's a reporter at the San Francisco post that's decided to do some digging into Logan's past. She makes some calls, to no avail, but . . she's already got a nibble. Somebody calls her back and tells her she should be looking into Blackguard. It's just the beginning of a story-line, but . . it could be interesting. So now we're off on our way with yet another Wolverine title. This one is by Jason Aaron and Ron Garney. So far . . I like the book. It's interesting, and hopefully we'll get some more information about Weapon X. My only concern is that, now . . there may be to many Wolverine books out there. You think? Naaahh!
