Great book in the series

This is an amazing Wolverine WWII story. Pulls in the history of the characters. Uou really need to read these in reading order....By itself it's good but needs to be read with the rest of the wolverine origins story line.

This is a fascinating concept. Definitly want to see how this plays out. I knew Wolverine was in World War II but seeing him work with Cap is really intriguing. Well done

Reminiscence with the Cap

Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2022

Verified Purchase

Following the death of Captain America, Wolverine breaks into the memorial site for his fallen friend and recounts the wartime they spent together and how their friendship developed. Nestled in the midst of Logan's discovery of his true self, it still holds a candle with filling in some holes in Wolverine's memory, but is a bit obscure compared to the other installments in this collection.

Volumes 1-3 focus on Wolverine's backstory and son, but this volume focuses on Cap and him. Again, it's not a bad story and helps to humanize Wolverine further, but it seems out of place for the story arc that Origins has established. It does, however, as always, end with a bang that will bleed into the "final" volume.

In the wake of the Death of Captian America Wolverine heads to the memorial of the Fallen Son. He reminesis about meeting Cap and his sidekick Bucky. Guess Staring Captian America, Bucky, and Nick Fury

Title: Wolverine: Origins Vol. 4: Our War (Premier HC)
Publisher: Marvel
Writer: Daniel Way
Artists: Steve Dillon, Kaare Andrews (pencils & inks), Matt Milla, Shannon Blanchard (colors), Marko Djurdjevic (covers)
Collects: Wolverine: Origins #16-20, Annual #1
Price: $19.99

I've read all of the Wolverine: Origins trades thus far and I can tell you - without any doubt - that this one is the best yet. Previous stories had Wolverine battle old foes like Cyber and Omega Red, and also had him fighting new enemies, like an old Sensei from his past and his... cough, cough... son. Ugh. We already have his pathetic daughter/clone X-23 and now this? Well, I didn't much care for the first collections. While the art was good, the writing was not good at all. I can tell that Daniel Way is trying hard, but his efforts aren't hitting the target for me. This book - though not the best thing I've ever read - is a pretty good read and much better than previous offerings from Way.

There are a few things that set this book apart from most other Wolverine stories: Both stories included in this book are flashbacks, so Wolverine has neither claws nor costume. Also, the story is as much about Captain America as it is about Wolverine. The stories are told by Logan, and as he tells them, he is in a Captain America memorial section of the Smithsonian (the story takes place after Cap has been shot and killed) trying to get drunk. He tells about his first meeting with Captain America and Bucky. He recounts how he was in the Canadian army for both World War I & II, and was being manipulated even back then. Though he really liked Steve Rogers right off the bat, he didn't care much for Bucky Barnes, as they were "too much alike" in their demeanor and methods. The story also touches on the creation of Hydra and Logan's attempt to kill Captain America - a directive he did not care for and could not complete.

Like I said, the story was pretty decent and definitely more original than a lot of other Wolverine stuff you've probably read. The annual was even better. Though it was drawn by Kaare Andrews (someone I've come to know as a pretty outstanding cover artist, but not a regular penciler), he must have been channeling Tim Sale, as I thought that was who had drawn it as I was reading the book. I was pretty shocked when I looked for Tim Sale's name in the front of the book and saw Kaare Andrews instead. The art was top-notch - some of the best I've seen in recent memory.

There was a lot to like about the Annual #1 that was a part of this collection. The story was written and illustrated in a noir fashion that was reminiscent of Frank Miller's Sin City. The colors were not black-and-white, but a kind of faded out tan and brown similar to the colors in old photographs before the rise of color photography. The flashback scenes also had some really sweet "crinkle-effect" work done to them, so that although the pages were brand new, they had the look of being well-read and wrinkled and aged. I thought this was a really nice touch and was just icing on the cake for the art side of things. The story was a nice little gem, too, telling of Logan's first years in Madripoor, and the woman he loved and lost, there. I won't give away any more details on the story, but it did tie in to material from the "Our War" storyline, as well as stuff that going on currently in the regular Wolverine monthly title, so if you are liking the stuff that's been happening in current continuity, you'd probably like to read this book, as well.
If Daniel Way can pull off a few more story arcs like the ones he put out for this trade, there will be hope for this series, yet. If you feel like trying out an original Wolverine story or the Origins series, go for this book, first.

Writing: 8/10
Artwork: 8/10 (Without the Annual, I'd give it a 7, but the Annual was just too good!)
Cool Factor: 7/10
Overall: 7.6/10

Great Read! Got Me hooked!

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2009

I picked this up because it looked very interesting. Who wouldnt love a story involving Wolverine, Captain America, Nick Fury, WWII, and a bunch more background info about Wolverine's past. I am confident in saying this is not the last Wolverine: Origins graphic novel i will pick up and enjoy. This one given to me as a gift was a great read. Can't say much more ;P
