    In the shadow of Romulus

    Daken is back.My favorite anti hero(he isn't like a villain from my point of view) is back!!!I haven't been reading much comics since Siege with the exception of Amazing Spider-Man so it was good to have a few recap pages which told the story of Daken.The first issue was really interesting.We get a dose of drama,action,sex(?!) and even humor.Daken's quotes are awesome too and his inner dialog/monologue,thoughts or whatever...
    Starting in Milan,Italy Daken is getting ready to jump in action again after staying in the shadows for months and what can be a better start then turning on Romulus and getting a new costume as well.Now having a purpose Daken wants to build his own Empire and not hide in the shadow but to become THE shadow.
       Overall a great start with a few  problems, 3.5 out of possible 5.

      Daken: Dark Wolverine Issue 1 0

      Well, it's time for a new Dark Wolverine series, not even a month after the last Dark Wolverine series ended. On the bright side though, now I don't have to read all the past Wolverine books to get a sense for Daken and Romulus and everything going on. Instead I get to jump right into Daken: Dark Wolverine! Excitement building!   The issue opens with 50 years ago, Wolverine is stumbling about and falls into a heap of mud as we hear Daken monologuing about how much he hates Wolverine. So much so...
