Old Man Logan Review

I have decided to try a written review since no one seems to look at the video ones: not to mention the time it takes to make one. I finally got to read “Old Man Logan” after hearing so much about it.

 

            The story takes place 50 years after the Villains of the Marvel Universe unite and slaughter the Heroes of the world to take control and shape it in the way they see fit. The United States was split up between the leading Villains from west coast to east coast The Hulk, Magneto (who was over taken by the new King Pin), Osborn, and the Red Skull. Logan (Wolverine) is one of the few Heroes left in the world and is living in near poverty with his wife and kids in Sacramento under the Hulks district. The Hulk in this book is raging hill billies with a gi-normious family of inbreed children and are ruthless land lords of California. Logan is falling behind on his rent and this is causing problems. Logan has sworn never to act in violence due to the events that laid out later in the book during the Villains raise to power. Logan gets a massive beat down at the hands of the hill billy off spring of the Hulk, and this is the driving force of the story. Logan has to pay the rent (I feel like my name is Logan), while in bed healing up from his injuries he is visited by an old friend Clint Barton(Hawk Eye of the Avengers) another of the remaining ex-heroes who is suffering from glaucoma. Clint offers Logan a way to pay the rent by being his wing man for a delivery across the country.

 

            This story is a road trip across a post apocalyptic America with our favorite mutie Wolverine. The story is amazing and there are several great story line pay offs. I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend it. If I tell you any more I would ruin the story and world have to write spoiler ever other line. Check it out tell me what you think.
