I think it's his thigh that finally "sold" it to me. I dunno.What I like about this Olivier Coipel cover is that it combines the "two Wolverines" that usually show up in depictions of the character -- the handsome one and the sort of trollish one. He's certainly not a pretty boy in this piece of art. He's not Hugh Jackman-handsome. But he's also sort of hot in his own way.
I know -- pretty deep commentary! :-D
Cover is a Wolverine: Weapon X #1 variant, btw
I always dug the look he had during Silvestri's run with the character, which was a diminutive Clint Eastwood.
ReplyDeleteWhere'd the new uniform come from? It's been a while since I read any of the X-books, is that the new X-Force?
ReplyDeleteObjectification is real. And it's effects? Devastating.

It is the OPPOSITE of wrong, Miss V. It just feels...so right. Oh, Logan.
ReplyDeleteI really hope that the Wolverine "continuity" is not screwed up by the plot of the Wolverine movie.
ReplyDeleteWithout a clear view of his junk (ala Citizen Steel on that JSA cover) I cannot render a decision.
ReplyDeleteNice ass
ReplyDeleteI'm just glad they put metal-ringed air holes in his vinyl gloves and boots because without breathability those things would become STINKY.
