Issue 3 sees the Claremont story head into familiar territory with the arrival of Wolverine, Storm, Nightcrawler, and Colossus into the Savage Land in hopes of saving the expedition. I’ve forgotten how well Claremont had crafted not a bunch of characters but an entire universe during his lengthy run on the X-titles. Claremont makes a point that the reader doesn’t forget either, reminding readers every few panels that Storm hates tight spaces, Colossus is Russian, and that Wolverine has a temper.
In the back-up tale, Hawkeye’s got into the security consultation game. Only his new client might be operating some sinister experiments. Not a bad story. The art could use some work and the plotting is so quick, the story ends up lapping itself in order to explain some gaffs.
Worth Consuming.
