Daniel Way of Wolverine The victorious Daniel Way begins his journey in a brand new revenge-filled Marvel Heroes line published by Panini Comics.
Wolverine has been one of the most iconic characters in Marvel Comics since his conception, rivaling Spiderman himself in popularity. Both in a team (Mutants or Avengers) and alone, Logan always works well and has titles or levels known by authors such as Chris Claremont, Frank Miller, Mark Millar or Barry Windsor-Smith. The great Daniel Way also had a chance with the character, and now Panini Comics gathers the platform with a series of volumes, the beginning of which comes to us under the title of Marvel Heroes. Wolf in Daniel’s Way 1: Beginning and End.
Logan’s secret past
The mystery of the origin was great for some characters in the comic world. A good example of this is the Joker, a villain whose canonical origins are enigmatic and when the scriptwriter tries to change this, he is met with suspicion and disdain. The next most notable case is probably the long-lived mutant with adamantium claws…
If there’s one trait our protagonist has, it’s that he doesn’t remember the past, in addition to being the best at what he does. This changes to some extent with Wolverine – Origins, a work in which Andy Kubert and Paul Jenkins wanted to shed light on the childhood and adolescence of mutants. Fortunately, much of the story remains unknown…
This event begins a glorious stage for the house of ideas led by Brian Michael Bendis until the arrival of Dynasty M and has many consequences for the continuity of Universe 616, one of which is the return of Logan’s memory. No doubt this will trigger a change in his memory.
Old Enemies and Dynasty M
When Wei first took on the character, his series was not going through its best month-to-month period, which is curious about the time when Hugh Jackman, who we’re talking about today, boosted the character’s popularity above the bubble. Comic readers.
In this first scan, the scriptwriter signs the last three issues of the second part, which open this volume. They’re not particularly popular and it’s unknown if we compare Way here to his greatest works like the Punisher vs Bullseye miniseries, Nighthawk or Bullseye: Greatest Hits. But, the job is fulfilling and Joe Quesada likes it enough to consider when the time comes to give the character a new take: to face the consequences of the M dynasty.
The weapons that Wei uses to succeed in this assignment are based on some basic concepts that were introduced into the character’s lore back in the day. We have a new memory of the Weapon-X program, a dead wife in Japan who got Logan pregnant and the sword Muramasa accompanies him on a journey of revenge and calculation, in this first volume, we meet the Silver Samurai, the Winter Soldier, Nuke, Captain America or the mutant Cyclops and Emma. Frost.
Steve Dillon never fails.
In the graphic department, the truth is that unless a giant like Steve Dillon enters the competition, the sound is not particularly interesting. And it works perfectly to lead the first five issues of the new series Wolverine: Origins, which is dedicated solely to telling the characters’ backstories. The artist gets down to his worst with Wei (they’ve worked together in the past on some of the screenwriter’s best), and here they both give a read on how to make fun, entertaining and masterfully told comedy.
In short, the most notable aspect of the volume is Wei’s ability to explore the consequences of Wolverine’s memory recovery after the events of Under Dynasty. The Emotional Background of Lost Wife.
On the negative side, we have to highlight the first numbers of the sound, they are not very impressive, they are somewhat disconnected and lack the dynamics that distinguish the rest of the volume. Also, except for Dillon, the graphics could be better. Still, it’s important to get the voice in time with the character to enjoy what’s to come…
