Wolverine: Origins #23
By Daniel Way (writer) and Steve Dillon (artist)



Initial thoughts:

Ghost Rider looks amazing and reads great. This is a team that firmly has a grasp on the character. It's still nice seeing Hercules in his 'own' book. Marvel Adventures titles interest me because we see familiar characters in a different setting. The Order is going out with a bang. Thor shows me that even though he's a fantastic painter and cover artist, Marko Djurdjevic needs to do more sequential work. It's a crime to keep this talent hidden from us. And Danny Miki is a master at inking. Finally, Wolverine: Origins continues to make my reading pile. But I'm probably one of the few that isn't that big of a Deadpool fan, so this storyline can wrap up any minute now.

Thanks to Marvel for providing the preview pages.
