Well, that one page looks gorgeous.

Though it's only a first look, i'm not impressed.

nice but how many old man logans do we need?

new stories then?

[Fuzzy Barbarian]

This is the only X-book I can see being any good. Lemire is a great writer, Hawkeye and Extraordinary aside, and I loved his GA run with Sorrentino.

Also, Dark Knight Returns variant is cute

What do you mean? There is only one. This is the same one from Secret Wars and Extraordinary X-Men

[Old_Batman]

Only reason its going on the pull list is because of Lemire. I'm willing to chance it for his writing. Really enjoyed his Animal Man and Justice League Dark work.

Between this guy and the squadron supreme, do we really need this much edginess in the MU? Logan sounds like he should be on Magneto's team instead.

One minute I was there and the next I woke up here... Why my pockets were cut out beats the hell out of me...

[Jackraow21]

Looking forward to this. Kind of weird how he got here, but now that he's here I look forward to reading about him.

[ZNOP]

I'd rather read a story concerning the disappointment his 616 enemies go through when they learn that the highly coveted Adamantium statue of Wolverine is now absolutely worthless.

[Jumbo]

I'll read the Extraordinary X-Men and Old Man Logan. This is not a real Wolverine, but at least he is not a young copy...

So what....?? It's still a Logan/Wolverine who'll be a part of the ANAD MU and I can't wait to see how he'll deal with the rest of the MU Heroes (and Villians) within said MU; although EXTRAORDINARY X-MEN is doing an excellent start with OML dealing with some of the X-Men that he knew (within his original timeline prior to SECRET WARS).

[ZNOP]

Is there some sort of logic behind your statement, Jumbo?

[Jackraow21]

I think it was a slam on X-23. I actually like her as the new Wolverine, though I wish Old Man Logan had a codename. Call him Weapon X or something. And give him a costume. But maybe that's just me...
