Due to the snow, I still have not been able to pick up this issue. Anyone out there have any thoughts on the series finale?
Due to the snow and a con this weekend I am working, probably won’t be able to get it until late Sunday or even Monday. Damn thee snow!!
I picked it up and have to say that it really wasn’t needed. After doing a series based around an interstellar threat, this issue seemed to just be tacked on because they had to use it somewhere. It wasn’t a completely worthless and useless comic like Wolverine: Savage though. I must say though that Wolverine did sum it up right while fighting leprechauns, pixies, goblins and wood nymphs. “This is the dumbest fight I’ve ever been in.”
I finally got a copy today. I have to agree with Comusiv, not a very strong finale for the series.
