OLD MAN...Blackest.......
Ok so if you know me, which most of you dont I have to say I have always been a marvel fan. I grew up in the eighties and nineties watching Saturday cartoons on fox!! Like X-men (now on dvd) Spiderman, Fantastic four, etc. Occasionally watching all the Batman animated series (time conflicted with my parents soaps lol). Which was the only DC thing I really got to enjoy.
For as long as I've known Stadium comics I was always Marvel,Marvel,Marvel,Marvel, etc. Then talking and getting to know the owners Kevin/Rob, Rob especially has pushed a lot of DC on me. Now only having 2 subscriptions of marvel the rest are unique and DC from Stadium. As i finished OLD MAN LOGAN and not really interested in continuing THOR(time in between issues) I notice one thing. This OLD MAN LOGAN series was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I enjoyed and loved the way that this over used character (come on you have to agree, if it isn't spidey its wolvie) actually didn't want to be a symbol (Wolverine) and just wanted to be normal Logan. I felt for him in most of the issues and the last issues with minimal writing and fantastic visual art showed me that Logan will always be alone, and he always excepts it. Plus being Wolverine and fighting the HULK again is pretty f##ken cool! Its an amazing transition from all the characters calling him Logan, till Banner calls him out and challenges Wolverine!
Now whether he's Canadian or not, or is, or isn't, or is again, blah, blah,blah, I have to say I'm "jacked to see where this will go and will have to continue to read this series. Especially while Blackest Night" has taken the world by storm and yet were all hooked to the rings and see where this will lead too (dont forget to subscribe to the BLACKEST NIGHT PACK for all the rings!!!!) I have to say if somebody asked me "where should I start reading in Marvel I have to say,
"OLD.....MAN.....LOGAN!"
Thanks Stadium!!! :)
