Wolverine: Black, White & Blood Treasury Edition by Matthew Rosenberg, Declan Shalvey, Gerry Duggan
4.0

A bloody good time.

These are multiple stories from multiple artist/writers. Mostly around 8 pages, sometimes up to 10 pages long, that show Logan off. With so many stories in here, there's no long big storyline going on, but so many stories keeps it fresh incase you didn't like it too much. From Logan dealing with Sabertooth, to fighting Juggy in a bar, to saving a kid, to having to deal with leaving his kid behind in the past.

Most of the stories range from good to great. None really stuck out as bad. There was a few that try to connect to older stories that felt a bit disjointed. But overall, most were a lot of fun, some fun and over the top to really dark and brooding wolverine. I like both so both worked for me. The art is the selling point, and though I know people hate Land's artwork, I personally liked a lot of it here among other artist.

I have to say I was a little sad we didn't get a single story with Laura as Wolverine. It wasn't like her arc was 6 issues, she ran 30+ issues as wolverine. I don't see why we couldn't get one single short story with her as Wolverine.

Anyway, was a solid collection. The oversized Library format really helped the art shine. A 4 out of 5.
