    I once had a mixed opinion of Capullo’s art inflated by a competent inker. But Capullo’s Wolverine looks like I’m staring at Wolverine ripped right out of the ‘92 Cartoon. It looks really great and I will eat my crow dinner now.

    This has the feel of Batman / Joker: Deadly Duo about it. I just waited for the inevitable hardcover deluxe edition, and I'll do the same for this. The Red Band bagged idea is just dumb, but each to their own.

      @jeffhabib6673 24 дні тому +1

      Marvel barely ever does deluxe hardcovers. They only do them for ongoing titles it seems now that collect the first couple volumes of a run. Maybe it’s because there hasn’t been anything they’ve done lately that would warrant a deluxe hardcover, but I’m not holding my breath.

    I'm a huge Greg Capullo fan, and I'll pick up anything he's on. Thankfully he's teaming up with a writer who likely won't deliver a sh!t script.
    I have little doubt that Marvel's pitch to Capullo was something like "Greg, here's a big pile of cash. Do whatever you want." and we get Wolverine, dinosaurs, and old-school, classic Avengers with a *likely* big dose of violence and carnage.
    As for variant interiors, I think it's a cool idea. I recall Fathom #1 did this, with the first 3 or 4 pages being different, depending on which version of the issue you picked up.
    I wouldn't pay $400 for it, and I don't need it to be ultra violent. I do think it's generally an interesting idea, though.

    Very excited for this miniseries. Hickman is hard carrying 2024 for Marvel with the new Ultimate Universe and his other projects. Greg Capullo drawing a Wolverine is like a dream come true. Does it suck that it isn't the main ongoing? Yeah but I'd rather have 5 great issues of a Wolverine story with great art & story than a 30+ issue run with some greatly drawn issues with 25 fill in artists. Also, this miniseries is definitely gonna overshadow Ahmed and Cocollo's book for a few months.
    The whole poly bag thing is really, really dumb. Why not just revive the Marvel MAX imprint if you want a full R Rated Marvel comic?

    The only good version of Wolverine right now is the one from X-Men '97. The jury is still out on the one from Deadpool And Wolverine. But the Wolverine from the Marvel Comics comic books has been permanently ruined. After the way that he was changed for the worse during the Krakoa story, there is no coming back from that.

    Wait a minute, who didn't expect the red ban version to not be successful? I knew it would be...that's all my experience with collectors and knowing how they think and act. And yes Marvel is going to use this for as long as there are projects that warrant it. And a Wolverine series, let's be blunt he's a violent character with violent enemies, is perfect for this to be used on again. You can make valid arguments that is doesn't grow the readership, but the sales still add to the bottom line. Again define unnecessary? It's not stupid either. In the grand scheme of marketing I have seen dumber. You weren't there for shooting a bullet hole in a comic. And aren't we supposed to be talking about new Wolverine series? Not spending nearly 5 minutes bitching about something that is up to the customer. I am out here. Done listening to this one. WTF20.
