i hated this arc more than any arc i’ve ever read. it was painful. i’m amazed that people that dislike Origins could read this crap and say good things about it. it screwed up his back story even worse than Way’s stuff. the art was worse than Dillon’s by a million miles and i HATE STEVE DILLON! it was a scratchy, rushed, badly written, uninteresting, insignificant, confusing mess that crapped all over most of my favorite Wolverine stories just by flashing back to them.

the covers were good though.

LOL. I like Origins and I like that Wolverine has his normal healing factor back. I don’t like the artwork in this comic and I lol’ed at DF’s comments about it. xD

sorry, Shogun then :p, this villain didn’t have to come to life, I don’t even remember his name…

The plot was ridiculous – an easy match for the glaring mistakes. Hopefully, one good thing came out of it though: no more plot-lite, instantaneous regeneration. Invincibility robbed Logan of a fundamental part of his character. Without the ability to die bravery becomes mundane and meaningless. Oh, he’s crashed a plane full of bad guys and got smeared all over someone’s corn crop. Never mind, he’ll be kicking major butt in the next panel. YAWN!!!

Although the story was daft Guggenheim gave Logan his raw edge back. For that I will be eternally grateful.

Now, if we can only dissuade Marvel from letting Day continue his disastrous, misguided and very unnecessary rewrite of Wolverine canon I’ll be more than happy.

I believe a piece of Wolverine’s soul was in Shogun (not Shingen) so Logan’s soul should be intact since Shogun, like Generalissimo Franco, is still dead.

yes, I can understand you are very dissapointed about those points, I also agree with you but I was happy with the essential of this arc, explaining why Wolverine became practically immortal and I feel they were trying to change that (in civil war, it was riduculus that he was just bones and he healed pretty good in some minutes)

I have a question, so part of Wolverine’s soul was in Shingen, but at the end he was still alive, does that mean Wolverine has still not his soul a whole?
