Wolverine’s X-Men friends have come to save him from the clutches of Doctor Rot at Dunwich Sanitorium but before X-Men Nightcrawler and Psylocke can rescue their friend, they have to reach his mind. Doctor Rot continues to be the only funny thing in this storyline. I like that his gut was spilling all over the place yet, he survived the ordeal and will probably be back for more. He’s the kind of villain that takes a good beating and loses limbs every time he meets the hero, yet one wonders how he survives. If Aaron was aiming for a crazy equivalent to the Joker, he hit every button here. The gut action was of course delectably sick thanks to the beautiful and gross artwork from Paquette. If it wasn’t for him, this story would just be another B-type of story and not much enjoyable.
Rating: 8/10
