Mark Millar

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Along with Brian Michael Bendis, Mark Millar has been one of the key writers for Marvel Comics in the 21st century. After proving himself in the ’90s as a talent to watch while writing for DC Comics and the UK comic 2000AD, his arrival to Marvel came at a time when Ultimate Spider-Man had just shot up the sales charts. It was in this environment that Millar made his first major contribution to Marvel with Ultimate X-Men, as Millar integrated forty years’ worth of X-Men history, characters and lore into a solid two-year run, making the companion title to Ultimate Spider-Man every bit the creative and commercial success. Next up was The Ultimates, a new rendering of the Avengers that was to continue building on the success of the Ultimate line. He and artist Bryan Hitch pulled it all off in spades: The Ultimates and its sequel, Ultimates 2, were ensconced at the top of the sales charts every month; what’s more, they were critical successes, as well. Meanwhile, Millar was invited to enter the regular Marvel Universe to take a stab at two of its most iconic characters: Spider-Man and Wolverine. Paired with industry heavyweights to draw his stories — Terry Dodson on Marvel Knights Spider-Man and John Romita Jr. on Wolverine — Millar brought the same fast-paced and cleverly constructed plots with which his Ultimate fans were already familiar. Amid building a small library of Millarworld indie comic books — including the titles Chosen and Wanted, the latter of which was turned into a Hollywood blockbuster starring Angelina Jolie — he managed to write Civil War, the epic seven-issue miniseries that definitively reshaped the landscape of Marvel’s heroes. Kick-A**, a Marvel Icon project done in tandem with John Romita Jr., made an impressive impact on the sales chart before also being adapted for a major motion picture. In addition, Millar has reunited with Civil War artist Steve McNiven in both the pages of Wolverine and their creator-owned book Nemesis.

Great story, great art, nice plot twists.
After I finished volume 1 I couldn't wait to see how it ended. Wolverine is treated as the true THREAT that he should be, but other characters get to shine, too. Plus it has that great Larry Hama quality of Logan being a lonely, broken, yet still heroic man who feels totally out of place in the world, and is also the last person you'd ever want coming after you.

As far as Wolverine stories go, this one is right up there with being one of the best.

As a character, Wolverine is overused. He's also underwritten. Most writers have a hard time bringing out the qualities in the character that make him interesting. Mark Millar has no such problems here as he presents a character most know as a hero in the role of a villain.

You can read the plot in the item description, but know that it merely scratches the surface of this tale (which would make a great movie, by the way). When Wolverine goes rogue, some of Marvel's finest are out to take him down. It's a task that is a daunting as it is messy, and the various outcomes will leave your head spinning.

This is great stuff from Millar and artist John Romita, Jr.. If you are a Wolverine fan and haven't read this yet, you can't waste another minute.

Wolverine is lured to Japan and captured by the Hand. Then he's brainwashed and set loose on SHIELD and several other Marvel heroes and dozens of minor villains (mostly offscreen). Each attack gathers pieces that Hydra and the Hand need to put together a big plot device. Once Wolverine is recaptured by SHIELD and deprogrammed (you knew that was going to happen, right?), Logan goes on the rampage to try and stop the chaos that he helped create.

The first half (Wolverine under control) was not too strong. There was no real sense of urgency or trepidation on the part of SHIELD as Wolverine tears an apparant bloody swath through the Marvel Universe. The reader gets some idea from statistics reported by agents, but only a few actual fights with mainstream heroes are shown. Some superflous sub-plots invovling the power struggles among the villains of the piece that didn't seem to account for much of an impact other than to add a few pages to fill out an issue.

The second half is a bit more cohesive story-wise as Wolverine tracks down the Hydra/Hand leadership and bases of operation to disrupt their plans and exact his revenge for the part he was forced to play and some of those he was forced to kill along the way.

Great art by John Romita, JR, that is worth the price.

Another excellent read wolverine enemy of the state: it does not matter how many times I read a different book that wolverine is in the author makes him a priceless asset 2 any other person he worked with he puts every ounce of himself and more from deep down inside himself no matter what the state of the situation or how many people he has to fight he just digs down inside himself and just keeps on going like a unstoppable steam train ripping & shredding 2 the end of that battle and just continue s on to the next 1 comes along nothing fazes this man no matter what the odds in my eyes he is the greatest supper hero out there (I love his sense of humor is very dry & witty he love's children & any 1 that hurts them will pay a very big price for their stupidity in killing any child , he has a lot of humanity in him and huge heart 2 boot that means he feels for the innocents that get killed by collateral damage )

Yup. I've never really been into Logan. Looked the character within the X-Men books but was never interested in picking up his solo stuff.

However... the first thing that grabbed my attention was John Romita Jr. One of my all-time favorite artist, if not my favorite. He is just masterful with his design and had such a beautiful style to his craft. Next was Mark Millar, who did a fantastic job giving voices to the characters that felt deep and fleshed out. His collaboration with John makes for a entertaining and fun story.

I came across this as I was purchasing other Wolverine stories for a little catch up on my old X-Men love. I read this 2nd after the Chris Claremont/Frank Miller classic tale of Wolvie in Japan. But this was more my style and much, much better than I thought. In fact, this is now one of my all-time favourite graphic novels ever and I have quite a few and have read even more than I own. If you are on the wall about buying this one, don't be - just buy and thank these good reviews later.

It's a good book about Wolverine with his Hydra brainwashing. The plot could be better and there are definitely other better Wolverine books, such as: Deadpool vs. Wolverine or Wolverine and Spiderman
