Are we in the Silver Age?
If you're hoping to read a good comic about Wolverine becoming bonded with a venom symbiote, don't buy this issue. That picture on the cover? Don't expect to find any of that in the pages of the comic. 95% of this comic is just a bunch of people sitting around in a room talking (the rest is mostly ads). Really, the only thing in the book that is related to the image on the cover is a frame on the last page that shows a TV news feed about the symbiote battle in the city. Other than that, nothing really interesting going on here.
I understand that there has to be some slow points of a comic in order to build the story, but if you're interested in reading a comic with a little action, steer clear. This issue is bad enough to where I'm not even sure i'm going to bother picking up the next issue of this title.
