Will Dakenâs clandestine conduct cause turbulence for Osbornâs Dark Avengers? Can Daken be trusted? Whose side is he really on?
Critics and Fans are buzzing about the Dark Wolverine series!
âWay and Liu develop a wonderful satirical attitude for Daken that enhances the quality of this characterâ¦Giuseppe Camuncoliâs pencils are exciting to follow…Teamed up with Onofrio Catacchioâs inks, the images explain all the anger and frustration Daken is facingâ¦Readers should expect an amazing clash if dear old dad decides to show up.â – Frank Stapleton, BrokenFrontier.com
âDaken totally blew me away with the premiere of his own title Dark Wolverine with its more adult themes and storyline of the man literally living in his fatherâs shadowâ¦Of all the Dark Reign storylines at the moment, Dark Wolverine is the one I am enjoying the most.â – Antony Ellis, thecomicaddiction.com
âGiuseppe Camuncoli does fantastic work. His art has always leant itself to characters looking more evil and twisted than others draw them, and that highlights the writingâ¦Here, you know Daken is a bad guy, so Way and Liu ramp that up by focusing on his intelligence and skills of manipulation to turn him into the âwild cardâ in Osbornâs group.â – Chad Nevett, ComicBookResources.com
âWay and Lui have done a great job of making Daken a more intriguing character, and much like Clint Eastwoodâs Man With No Name in A Fistful of Dollars itâs difficult to deduce whose side heâs on, or whether his influence on certain parties is premeditated or instinctive.â – Carl Doherty, Alltern8.com
