Thoughts on wolverine's origin

i wiki’d origin, it sounded terrible. the mini can’t really be that bad? can it?

My friends, ORIGIN does not ruin Wolverine in any way, shape, or form. What’s this I hear about how ORIGIN has revealed all the mysteries behind Marvel’s merriest mutant? Eh, bubs? Absolutey untrue.

For example, have you not wondered just WHY late 1800s Canada so closely resembles Wuthering Heights-era England? For all we know, the entire story was just an implanted memory from the Weapon X Project. Or how about the parallels between Wolverine and Heathcliff? Are they the same person? Is ORIGIN actually the Ultimatized version of Emily Bronte’s classic? ULTIMATE WUTHERING HEIGHTS?

After reading ORIGIN, it is quite obvious that there is much that has yet to make sense. For everything that has been “revealed” to us, there is a new question that has yet to be answered in a satisfactory manner. Just the supposed fact that Wolverine was originally a puppy-loving lad is enough to make any reader question reality.

You see, gentlemen, there is very much that we have yet to learn about this mysterious work. However, I am 100% confident that in due time, all will be revealed, as per the usual Mighty Marvel Manner.

I once read a biography about Paul Jenkins. His great-great-great-grand aunt was Emily Bronte. ORIGIN is a tribute to his family lineage.

P.S. - Gambit has never been “cool.” Except the time Ultimate Gambit died during BKV’s run.

That always pissed me off how Donald got fuckin’ trumped, and his few appearances were done only to make fun of him. :sad:

Yeah they never said why they swapped out Donald but I always figured it was because they felt his popularity would take over the show. And that way they could have the nephews living with Scrooge instead of living with Donald and visiting all of the time. I dunno I think Donald got the last laugh, he has a speaking role in the Kingdom Hearts series and the nephews and Uncle Scrooge have no voices in those games. :rofl:

Remember how Sabertooth got killed by a magical sword?

That was retarded.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre ( the original ) was a legit scary slasher movie. I saw that and was afraid to go out in the woods for a little while. ( or even downstairs when it was all dark ) Movie was just hardcore fucked up. It didn’t help that my college dorm’s door sounded just like the one sound effect in the movie.

Oh, um, Wolverine…

He used to be cool before he developed the power to be everywhere and never die. Now he’s kind of become a hilarious parody of himself.

I can’t believe they took Sabertooth away from Mike Carey’s X-Men to do that to him.

That’s 50/50. On one hand it COULD have been a monumental success. On the other, it could have generated so much suckage that it caused a specified black hole anomaly that completely removed comic books and the concepts OF comic books entirely from our dimension.

Meh. It was done better in Killer Klowns From Outer Space.

That was so good I cried.

I’d place it somewhere between vasectomy sans anesthetic and getting raped by the hulk.

I personally, think that Origin was all a false memory implanted by the Weapon X program.

lol what do you think marvel is…dc? they dont have the balls to do it…unless they go bankrupt again.

If you are a Wolverine fan, the best thing you can do for yourself is stay away from both titles except for when they have the double sized, one shots and annuals.

It is still to early to tell about the current Guggenheim story, but considering it is based off the part I hated most from otherwise good CW arc, I’m going to wait and see on it until the end.

Yeah, that whole thing about Wolverine getting blown up to just his skeleton in the CW arc was weird, but I just overlooked it because the rest of the story was so enjoyable. This new Guggenheim arc seems primed to explore Wolvie’s healing factor, and it was interesting so far. The Chaykin art (haha, where you at, Painy?) fits with the gritty tone. But I remember there was this one panel where Wolverine was drawn way out of proportion. I guess Chaykin’s just getting old and careless.

Check this out:

There are unlettered sample pages from BKV/Risso’s upcoming Logan MK miniseries. Looks like it’ll end up being one of the greatest Wolverine stories ever.

I am loving Origins. Take a look at his site for more Origin goodness :

There is a lot of material to work with in the Origins series. :slight_smile:

Origins to me is…meh

And i’m a diehard Wolvie fan, but the pace is waaaay to slow. Dakken is kind of a weak character, and…

whatever i’m still gonna buy it so sigh

I think it’s one of those series that is a lot better when you read 20 issues back to back. I am thinking about buying the TPB’s soon. :slight_smile:
