As for the book itself as a book, don't hold off the 4-5 dollars to get a soft back edition of the book. The hardbound is worth it for nothing else even but the feel of the book, especially for new collectors. You won't regret it! Wolverine may be "overused" at times, only because many authors can't make good characters on their own and try to have him make their works more interesting.
To truly enjoy this though, one really needs to buy the first three volumes at once. Try to look through the sellers all together - I found all mine either new or like new with shipping for about 30 dollars. Otherwise you'll feel very incomplete, even for having read an on-going comic!
This volume, wich I idly got thinking it was another one, is about Logan, with his full memories recovered after the House of M day, trying to catch the shadow that has been manipulating him his whole life. So far so good and interesting. The problem is the execution of the plot: we have a magic sword, robots, fights in the White House, a combat against Nuke and Captain America, a premonitory dream by Emma Frost uncovering a shocking secret, international travels to exotic countries that look more like a low budget movie filmed in the nearer park in the neighborhood, and a long etcetera. All this is indeed quite entertaining but at the same time implausible, as if all this were a dream where you go from one story to another without logic and more like association of ideas. About the drawing, Steve Dillon is good, but in this volume he lacks diversity of faces, everybody (men and women) looks like portraited by only one actor with different wigs.
If you only read this volume it can promise a good series but if you have read what follows then you know that this comic is only consistent in being ridiculous.
Switch to a cliff, you find him practicing with the Murmasa blade which if you haven't followed his series, you know you are missing something. However, it get's explained later.
Logan is pissed and wants to revenge those how did him wrong. This trail leads him from the wilderness, to the Whitehouse, to Viet Nam. Along the way you will see tidbits of his past and fall all he has suffered; he is not innocent.
Add in the X-Men, Captain America and Nuke and you have a fun fight.
Artwork was good overall.
On to the next edition.
