Well Fantomex came to Wolverine with a deal. He will tell him bout his past (or give him the files) if Wolverine helps him track down and stop Weapon XV. It sounded easy enough, but then everything went to hell at The World. Can they get the job done or will they die trying………..or just die!
The first three issues of this arc haven't really grabbed me, but this one is pretty interesting in places, but you're still left thinking what the hell! Fantomex, Scott & Logan need to complete their mission and Logan has even more pressing stuff he needs to find out. Will there be a price that has to be paid though!?! We find out the overall goal of the Weapon Plus programme, but who is the mystery man behind it. Will we find this out!?!
The only thing I liked bout this art wise was the cover!
Bachalos interior pencils on the most part are jus a confusing mass of lines. Yes, at times we are given nice panels but the majority of his work is scratchy and convoluted. If he was to calm down slightly I'm sure this would be some great stuff, but unfortunately it's jus hard work!
