It depends on what type of stories you're looking for out of a Wolverine book. OML was very much a brawler book, big scale and big consequences. ANW was more along the lines of Wolverine trying to atone for her sins in the past, a much more personal tale. I personally preferred OML as I didn't really care for how Taylor wrote Laura.

Yeah it was really disappointing but not really surprising when you see who wrote this one shot lol.
Let's hope so! Logan not drinking beer and not fighting any ninja doesn't feel right especially in a mini entitled Return of Wolverine lol
Thanks for the preview biswaboxz! It looks nice!
I see, that's some long term planning.
Yeah that wouldn't surprise me.Ah, Warren Ellis's story directly before Chris took back the reins. Whether Chris considered that likely is uncertain though.
Thank you for the detailed informations, it’s really interesting!If one can smell an object, it means that molecules of it are getting separated from it, so they can reach the nose. However, metals don't sublimate, especially not in room temperature (most metals have far too low of a vapour pressure at ordinary temperatures to allow direct detection). The characteristic smell of metal, in fact, is caused by organic substances.
There has been the focus on the specific case of the smell of iron. There are at least two ways in which iron produces a metallic smell. Firstly, acidic substances are capable of corroding iron and steel, releasing phosphorus and carbon atoms present in the metal or alloy. These can react to form volatile organophosphorus compounds such as methylphosphine (H3CPH2HX3CPHX2 which has a garlic/metallic odour at small concentrations).
Also, it turns out that Fe2+FeX2+ ions (but not Fe3+FeX3+) are capable of oxidising substances present in oils produced by the skin, namely lipid peroxides. A small amount of Fe2+FeX2+ ions are produced when iron comes into contact with acids in sweat. These then decompose the oils releasing a mixture of ketones and aldehydes with carbon chains between 6 and 10 atoms long. In particular, most of the smell of metal comes from the unsaturated ketone 1-octen-3-one, which has a fungal/metallic odour even in concentrations as low as 1 μg m−31 μg m−3.
As an aside, this may be why sometimes people recommend getting strong smells off their hands by rubbing them against a metal object. While it probably doesn't work for some metals and for some smelly compounds, it's possible that the metal catalyses the decomposition of the malodorous substances into less strongly smelling ones.
Hooray my nitpicking has finally paid off Thanks for your help!You'll not I’ve helped justify your nitpicking above.
Thanks for the reminder I forgot about the Sinister's android thing from X-Men Forever, you know it's funny but when I started reading the X-Men I always thought that Sinister's red diamond on his forehead was really similar to the solar jewel of Vision, maybe that wasn't for the exact same purpose but maybe it was also a clue he wasn't really human. Of course that was before all the revelations about his past lol.Claremont didn’t mention Sinister was in Vietnam (since recall young Nate kept himself, and his Mister Sinister android, locked down in the State Home for Foundlings basement, only venturing out at the end of Inferno).
Fair enoughI donÂ’t think we can take TieriÂ’s suggestion as something Chris intended, and being the Claremont-purist that I am...
Exodus as the third Summers brother? Now things are even more crazy than I thought with this plotline lol, Harras had some strange ideas when you think about it. Not a fan of Adam X, but honestly it can’t be worse than Vulcan and that terrible Deadly Genesis story.Did you also know that Exodus was the character Harras had pegged for the Third Summers Brother? When Fabian went on to undermine that suggestion by firstly hinting that Exodus was Native American, and then seeding his own candidate, Adam-X, this was what led to Harras firing him. When first introduced, from his visual features it was obvious Exodus was half-Shi'ar with the hair-do and regal outfit.
To be honest Gambit as the third brother would have worked for me.
Well, if I’m not mistaken something similar happened to Nathaniel Richards but who knows maybe Essex found something interesting up there.Uatu would have known if Sinister got access to his base, and would have dealt with him accordingly.
Cosmic Sinister would be scary but Cosmic Shadow King is on a whole another level, not sure if the X-Men could stopped him without some cosmic power of their own.Bad idea (but I think Chris was planning to develop a "Cosmic Shadow King").
Speaking of the Shadow King, I always found this vilain fascinating during the Claremont's run.
Yeah the Neverland name makes sense when you know the history behind Nate/Mister Sinister so maybe Tieri was really influenced by Claremont’s original ideas for some parts of his run lol.Well, given young Nate/ Mister Sinister was Claremont’s effort to write an evil Peter Pan (the child that never grew up), naming his base Neverland is somewhat appropriate. So points to Tieri for that at least.
Could make sense regarding their names, since I don't think Magneto’s real name was ever referenced before Chris wrote Uncanny X-Men.Claremont has never revealed his intentions for either one's names. It was obvious when he began referring to Magneto as "Magnus" he was drawing contrast with Charles as in both their names combined were effectively Charlemagne.
So Xavier was protecting them from being experimented on by Sinister? That could be cool, so maybe Sinister could have had a hand in Brian’s death, since he was disturbing his plans? Or maybe Apocalypse is also involved in all of that?Recall the tunnel from the Morlocks' Alley ran all the way out to Westchester. So was Xavier running a Mutant Underground to protect them from being experimented on?

Agreed. It’s actually one of my Top 5 favorite Wolverine sagas of all time. Right up there with the Barry Windsor Smith ‘Weapon X’ tale, the original Claremont/Frank Miller mini series, the Mutant Massacre (where he battles Sabretooth) and Fatal Attractions for me.
I also really enjoyed the whole Larry Hama run with Silvestri, as well as ‘Not Dead Yet’ by Warren Ellis and Leinil Yu and also Jason Aaron and Ron Garney’s ‘The Adamantium Men’, just off the top of my head. But those last two aren’t up there with Old Man Logan or the other four I mentioned.

When I started reading Wolverine, i have no such cognition for Logan's character . But after some advice from fellow comic fans , i read Millar's Wolverine , it was simply one of my all time favorite comic runs.
I have very few selected runs for Wolverine like Larry Hama's Wolverine , BWS's Weapon X , Tier's run , but i guess I like this character more than his comic runs .
I usually like to read to more brutal and dark solo comics which kinda fallen under the same ball towards Wolverine's life .
