Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Wolverine, a brutish, surly loner, is the most interesting X-Man. Lucy, the teenaged waitress in the diner he frequents, nicknames him "Mean Man," but because she senses Wolverine is more sympathetic than he looks, suspects he has superhuman powers and knows she needs protection from the gun-toting, macho cult that's chasing her, she tentatively approaches him for help. After Lucy is murdered, Wolverine pursues the killers into backwoods Oregon. This is basically a revenge-driven, tough-guy detective story, except that this vengeance-seeker's body repairs itself after terrible wounds and extrudes enormous claws before hand-to-hand combat. Wolverine's investigation parallels the work of ATF agent Cass Lathrop, who's also on the trail of the cult for firearms violations, and she can accomplish some things that he can't. But Wolverine (and readers) know that no authority can be trusted; besides, Wolverine's ability to slash a bad guy to bits is more satisfying to observe than Lathrop's professional approach. In the first few stories, Robertson and Palmer's artwork emphasizes Wolverine's taciturn, Neanderthal nature. In the last chapter, however, they depict Wolverine letting his guard down in a bar full of other mutants, as he ponders what he's done and whether he's really human or just a talented, somewhat evolved beast. Rucka nicely scripts this discussion. In the same chapter, Lathrop has a dream that reveals her uncertainty as to whether she wants to arrest Wolverine or sleep with him. It's this ambivalent attitude by other people and by Wolverine himself that makes him so fascinating, and this book effectively maintains the tension.

This is by far my favorite version of Wolverine ever. He is exactly how he should be written and drawn. Short, hairy & ugly (unlike the cover art) with a temper when it comes to wrong doing. He keeps every emotion except anger to himself and tears through the bad guys like it should be. The story was actually interesting despite being pretty thin and the side characters were well done for being just normal people. Great place to start for Wolverine fans.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good story, but the art? UGH!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2013
Well, I just finished reading this 5 issue arc and all I can say is I hope it gets better from here. The story was good, but the art? UGH!! I mean, when this volume came out in 2003 it was Marvel's flagship Wolverine line and to pick an artist like Darick Robertson to start it off was a HUGE mistake. I do like his painted covers, but his interior artwork is just not up to par with what we expect from a top line comic. Marvel figured it out too and swapped Robertson with Leandro Fernandez before the first story arc was even done. I have this entire volume, all 74 issues and I'm going to keep reading it, I'm only hoping the art picks up a bit. If you're a new fan or you're looking to pick up a TPB and read a good story this will do. If you really want to be happy pick up Frank Miller's 4 issue set that started it all, you'll be hooked, then get into Vol. 2 and even some of the great stories in Marvel Comics Presents. 3/5 Stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars This IS your father's Wolverine.
Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2016
This IS your father's Wolverine.

Rucka tells a grimy B-movie Wolverine story here, about what happens when bad men cross someone worse, but he's also done something remarkable--he's brought us back to the Logan some of us grew up with, the failed ronin, the wandering warrior, the barely restrained monster who seeks absolution by avenging those who are hurt by even worse monsters. Nameless, costumeless, Wolverine's just a man who's too stubborn to stay down here, a classic take.

It's also a story about violent men who hate that the only good in the world they seem to be able to do requires them to use the violence they want to leave behind. He's the best there is at what he does, and what he does isn't very nice... and he hates himself for it.

This is written in brutal ugliness in Darick Robertson's art--and I say ugliness in the best way possible. Before Hugh Jackman brought his lanky charisma to the screen, Wolverine was "short, hairy, and unloved," and Robertson brings us back to that old school Logan, undersized, square-bodied, a furry gargoyle whose smiles are the stuff of nightmares.

The character of Wolverine has evolved a lot in recent years, more reflective, more pacifistic, more clearly heroic. But "Brotherhood" is a story for those of us who miss the monster we used to love, who knows he could be better, but knows the world needs someone to be worse than the villains.

There's also a real undertone of social commentary here, about America's culture of violence, about those lonely places where fear and paranoia can overtake humanity, about absolution, and about knowing where you belong in this world. It's a shockingly thoughtful book.

Absolutely amazing storyline and artwork, the two combined made this easy reading. The only thing that would have made it better for me on a personal level is more of the pencil art. I'm another life of be a penciller. But just brilliant...I'm so glad I took a step outside of Hulk, Spider-Man and Batman!
