![]() ![]() Federico Vicentini heads up this series after doing a lot of good work over on Amazing Spider-Man it's got a different feeling to X Lives, as you'd expect, but the two styles work fairly well together. This story jumps off of the end of Jonathan Hickman's Inferno storyline, and manages to hit some great character beats for Wolverine and his extended family as well as setting up some intriguing storylines going forward for Wolvie and Moira. X Deaths is where the meat is however, as another, different time travelling Wolverine returns to Krakoa from the future to track down and murder Moira MacTaggert. ![]() Regular X-Force artist Joshua Cassara pops over for these issues, and his brutal style is a great fit for a Wolverine story as always. Fairly straight forward, for a comic book plot, but it's nice to revisit some of these iconic moments (even if Wolverine's history really has been mined to death at this point), and the Omega Red plot comes straight out of Ben Percy's X-Force story (and continues there too). X Lives sees Wolverine head back in time to various points in his history to prevent a time travelling Omega Red from murdering Professor Xavier's ancestors. Collecting both five issue mini-series, X Lives & X Deaths of Wolverine is the next big stepping stone on the road for Krakoa, although you wouldn't know it from any of the marketing. ![]()
