Giant Size Wolverine - Old Man Logan #1 - Marvel

Well . . it's finally here. The ending to the Old Man Logan storyline. It was $4.99. Which seems a bit steep. It's billed as a Giant-Sized book, but . . there's only 31 pages of art. I would've expected at least 40. We do get 21 pages of reprinted covers in the back. But . . they're covers. And they're reprinted. The cover for chapter 6 takes up 3 pages. We're shown the pencilled cover, the inked cover and the color cover. For real? For that we get charged an extra dollar. That's insane! Now, besides that . . I really liked the story. It's mostly filled with bloodshed, as Logan, upon finding out that the Hulk-gang has murdered his family, has gone off to take out every single one of them. And eventually . . his path leads straight to Bruce. Who admits . .'I got bored of being a landlord. Bored being a super villain. I needed someone cool to kill. To make me feel alive again.' Also it appears that this whole 'brood' . . Bruce's family and 'gang', came from his consummation with Jennifer. You know . . She-Hulk . . his cousin. 'Who else was I gonna mate with besides my first cousin? Jenny was the only woman out there who could take the damn pace!' Eventually the Hulk just gets so mad that he eats Wolverine. Which only leaves behind Bruce, his grand-son Billy-Bob and baby Bruce. However, Bruce forgot something. He forgot that although he's been snacking on his foes for years . . 'None of 'em had healing factors.' It's not long before Logan comes tearing through his bladder and out his back. After burying his family he's decided to head out into the country and try to bring a little law to the land. The first member of his posse? The little baby Hulk. Overall I thought it was a great story by Mark Millar. And Steve McNiven and Dexter Vines did a terrific job with the art. But now . . now it's finally over. It has the potential for a future story, but . . I really doubt that we'll ever see that happen. However, it was a nice little side trip. While it lasted.
