A NEW STORY FROM THE WORLD OF OLD MAN LOGAN! In a world where most of the super heroes fell at the hands of the RED SKULL over fifty years ago, a new force rises in the Wastelands! DANI CAGE wields the mighty Mjolnir for the cause of peace, but when the brutal regime of DOCTOR DOOM forces DWIGHT (a.k.a. the owner of the surviving Ant-Man technology) to Dani and HULK in a last ditch effort to survive, the AVENGERS may ASSEMBLE once more! Spinning out of the saga begun in OLD MAN LOGAN, and following up OLD MAN QUILL and DEAD MAN LOGAN, this is the can't miss premiere of Ed Brisson and Jonas Scharf's magnum opus!

Reviews


An unnecessary title that is pretty good for what it is, better than it needed to be, while still stretching Marvel's grip on the rack space at comic stores everywhere.


Including this week, Marvel released 1255 titles in January, not including variant covers. That's a small exaggeration, to be fair, but Marvel does want you to know that they make comics. They often do this by putting out titles that don't need to exist in the hopes you'll buy one of them instead of an independent or Distinguished Competitor's. Those books are frustrating for retailers, because they're not good and we may have to devote space to them, and they're not good for readers, because they're NOT GOOD.


If you subscribe to my theory, that means by the time we get to the fourth incarnation of a book in the world of 'Old Man Logan' (which was mostly great), and 'Old Man Hawkeye' (which had its moments), and 'Dead Man Logan' (which was an ok book without the heights of the other two) we don't have a need for another book in this universe. The other books sold though, and that means there's a good chance just enough people will still come back for another dose of something similar to a thing they really loved the first time around. (Holy crap, is this a Star Wars review?)


I'm happy to say that Ed Brisson (one of the Man Logan architects, and Jonas Scharf (I also don't know, but is effective and consistant with his artwork here) have made this tale of Dr. Doom killing city after city of people who have survived a literal continual apocalypse into something you won't need to be angry about after you read it. Simple 'good guys fight bad guys' stuff that superhero comics often neglect now. Does that scratch your itch?
