First of all, I want to disagree with the reviewer who stated this was not the Wolverine story. He is mixing this book up with a new series of the same title, which by the way, is also excellent. Second, this is a slow-paced story. However, the slow pace intensifies the utter horror of what was done to this character, and the inhuman indifference of the scientists who are experimenting on and torturing a living, feeling,being. This is a book which needs a second and third reading; after each pass, I found additional elements that I hadn't noticed the first time through. This isn't for kids or fans of slam-bam action by one dimensional heroes in colorful spandex. However, if you want a dark, intense read, this book is for you.

Every comic fan needs to have this one. The art is simply breathtaking. But who'd expect anything less from a master like Barry? The storyline is tough and violent. Windsor-Smith digs up Wolvie's past, how he came to be, with all the suffering and pain. After reading this you'll better understand his anger. Anger at the authorities who shaped him and mistrust towards anyone carrying a doctor badge. Buy it!

This is the graphic novel that tells what happened to Logan when he received his adimantium. Mind games... physical changes... training... everything. The artwork is first rate and the writing is even better than the art work. It is one of the few trade paperbacks that are on the same level as DC's Kingdom Come and Dark Knight Returns
