Was wondering if it was the same or if they hired the artist again for another round.
Now i also remember that awkward attempt at a shoujo style harem genre mini staring Kitty Pryde.
Talking about manga attempts at using Wolverine. Ever since reading Blade of the Immortal i feel like any new manga with Logan is just going to fall flat for me.
Obviously they are not the same character, but to me there are simply too many archetypical similarities between the two, that i can't help but draw parallels and with that measure a Wolverine manga to it.
And 20+ volume drawn in a stand out art style, with a ton of action and interesting characters is hard to beat. Especialy since Marvel would likely just pay for a 6 issue (barely one volume) mini series with a pointless or none-sensical story.
So as far as manga takes on X-men characters go, i would give a lot of others a chance before another Wolverine one.
