I do not think that there can ever be enough books about anything and I say that knowing that some of them are going to be about Pilates.The more knowledge the better seems like a solid rule of thumb, even though I have watched enough science fiction films to accept that humanity’s unchecked pursuit of learning will end with robots taking over the world.-Sarah Vowell

Wolverine Book One: Three Months to Die by Paul Cornell (Writer), Ryan Stegman (Penciler), Mark Morales (Inker), David Curiel (Colorist), VC's Cory Petit (Letterer)


A virus has wiped out Logan's immunity and healing factor and made him vulnerable to his enemies, of which he has quite a few.  He has decided to quit teaching at Jean Grey Academy and work through this by fighting through this.  He takes a job offer from a man named Offer who wants to take over Sabretooth's operation.  He becomes close with those he works with, especially Pinch and Lost Boy.  Pinch he's having a romantic relationship with and she's got a daughter she hopes to get back to and doesn't quite trust him.

The book goes back and forth in time and Wolverine is told by Offer to kill a reporter who is hidden in their midst and he does.  He also hunts down Spiderman and finds out where Sabretooth's operation is.  Someone gives him a suit of armor to wear in the field to protect him from being hurt.  But Wolverine is up to something, but what could it be?  There is a long animosity between him and Sabretooth so he could be after him to end it forever.  Or is it something else?

This comic is amazing in its complexity of character with Logan and how he's playing his cards close to his vest and turning into a villain to the world.  The artwork is incredible and very well done.  This is a great book that turns a corner for Wolverine as he feels death looking over his shoulder and perhaps an end to a long life that he thought would never end.  I give this book five out of five stars.
