Wolverine: Old Man Logan Vol. 5: Past Lives
by Jeff Lemire
This feels like a goodbye for sure to a series I never quite loved but least always read enough to enjoy it.
So Wolverine wants to go back in time. Wants to go back to his time so he can change things. Of course he asks every single hero he knows to help but everyone says no. So what does he do? He goes to a villain because, well that's how you gotta do things sometimes. Once he goes back in time he relieves some of the biggest moments in Logan's life, including the Phoenix fight and then of course a little before his family is murdered.
Good: It's a nice farewell. Reliving memories is always interesting and I loved the moment where he sees his family again. It's both sad and tragic and full circle for his character. Also him asking every hero for help was funny.
Bad: It feels like running through the motions. That the old man logan knows his place and is saying it's okay to live his life from now on the way he doesn't look back on the past. Been there done that.
Overall another decent, fun, but unremarkable volume. Sure, ten times better than volume 4 but still nothing special. A 2.5 out of 5. I'll hit it with a 3 though for the art.
