This series follows the (mis)adventures of those fools that Wolverine saved and died saving, foolishly. Not that the act was foolish but the way he did it. So they wouldn’t get adamantium, he cut the vat that was about to pour it into them, doing so, it poured all over him.
Proving all it takes for me to buy a comic is to show Kitty, at all.
Sharp, who not only is borrowing Star Lord’s mask, has a bonus voice in his head that speaks in red text on black caption boxes. He may have Wolverine as his bonus voice, but I suspect that it is Ogun and the Logan Legacy takes place after this miniseries, even though it came out second. That would explain why he sees Kitty there in the top panel.
If Ogun is in Sharp, I will have to seek out the first issue of this miniseries and probably the other issues as well.
Another reason why it is most likely Ogun, is that is the outfit Kitty wore during Kitty Pryde and Wolveirne.
So the six escapees are in a helicopter while another Weapon X helicopter is attacking them.
Sharp asks the brunette lady, Meifeng, to help out. There is a blonde lady but she is sleeping. Meifeng grabs a fire extinguisher and throws it at the attacking helicopter and both explode.
Sharp lands the helicopter on a train, so that if there is a tracking device on the helicopter, Weapon X will follow the train instead. The six of them jump off the train and into the river. Except one of them, lands into the sand next to it. The others suspect he is dead but he gets right back up. Each of them has a special power.
Neuro decides to explain what he suspects is their powers and provides them all with a codename. Junk, has ram horns. Meifeng gets the codename, Endo. Skel is the dude who survived the crash.
Later. Endo is using the river to see her reflection. Junk walks up to her, she accuses him of being a creeper. They all get attacked by some Weapon X soldiers. Sharp kills them all, his bonus voice in his head wants him to ditch the others and go on his own.
DCBS took out an ad congratulating Marvel on 75 years.
Once the threat is gone, Neuro wraps the truck the Weapon X guys showed up in, in some chicken wire as he knows that they have trackers inside of them. He finds some scanners and locates all of the trackers and takes them out. Endo is worried about getting more scars, which must be under her shirt.
Neuro goes over to the sleeping blonde. She wakes up, reads his mind, reveals that he has killed so many women. He kills her, the others show up, he explains (quickly) that her tracker was next to her throat and he missed and killed her. They buy it as she wasn’t a real person to them, she will probably go nameless.
The gang buries the blonde. Neuro takes this chance to talk to Sharp. Sharp’s voice tells him to not trust Neuro, as he is lying. Sharp is able to mentally talk to the voice so that’s interesting.
There is a seventh tracker, Neuro says that it is for a Victor Creed and they hope that he will be able to help them. To an early death, most likely.
I’m not sure if I’m getting any issue before issue 5 but if I do, we will review it here.
