I think the problem with Origin was the fact that there wasn’t any connection with Logan of the present. I also heard that Dog wasn’t Sabretooth despite the physical similarity between the two.

I wasn’t disappointed but it wasn’t a great story either. However, this is supposed to be a big story about Wolverine and it looks like Marvel have already forgotten about “Origin”. There was only “Wolverine – The End” that gave “Origin” some potential giving “Origin” a continuity with John (Logan’s brother) but sadly, Wolverine – The End isn’t in the Marvel universe chronology.

Comics should also be enjoyed however. Not everyone buys the books so they can get pissed and spend five hours complaining about it. If I felt that way about Wolverine, I would switch over to DC or Image. I know for a fact that the only reason I spend my cash on Wolverine’s titles, is because I like reading about his new stuff.

I should probably clarify a few things…

-The interview took about 20 minutes and covered a variety of topics. And in the end, only a handful of sentence were used. Hence my trepidations, because one is never sure which sentence or phrase will end up being used.

-I was not referring to the current Wolverine: Origins series, only the 2001 miniseries. And I certainly had no intent to speak for the entire comics community or Wolverine community. But among the fans and stores that I knew in 2001, the series was not well received.

-I converted this website into a blog with comments to give voice to those fans who disagree with me. I freely admit that I’m a curmudgeon. Having differing opinions on various Wolverine series is what makes fandom fun… for me at least. That others very much enjoyed the series is what comics should be all about.

-And finally, I should have a graph ready by the end of the week to back up all of my opinions. ;)

Damn your nitpicking Joel. ;)

Congratulations. Thankfully I do know a lot of people who did love Origin. (and I know some people who didn’t!) Which is why I’m probably going to be the only one on here who semi likes Wolverine and Power Pack #3. when it comes out tomorrow.

I didn’t like the origin.

Didn’t like him getting all his memory back, either. At least, not anything they’ve done with him since then.

Maybe I’m just an old grump.

youll proably come up with some stupid estimated graphs but way to project your oppinion onto the public as if it was all of ours,

I love his origin, and origins series, I dont know many people who dont.

The mystery got boring and repetitive and would only have been told in a movie anyway if they didnt do it in the comic
