Simple, uncomplicated sugary pleasure from the creators of the infamous Kick-Ass (and the writer of Old Man Logan) comes this hard-hitting gut punch of a comic starring everyone's favourite short-ass, foul-mouthed, bad-tempted Canadian with adamantium retractable claws and (always-handy) mutant healing power. Starting off in Japan where Logan's called in to help out an old friend but eventually spanning the entire globe (causing untold destruction along the way)- and featuring such Marvel favourites as Elektra, Nick Fury, not to mention top level bad guys like Hydra and The Hand - this is an all-out explosion of cool one-liners, shocking twists and over-the-top superhero action. I don't want to say too much because it would ruin the fun: but let's just say you've never seen Wolverine in this much trouble before (which seeing how he's Marvels favourite bad boy anti-hero is really saying something). Enjoy.
