This seemed familiar when I placed a hold on it from my local library's new graphic novel listing, and indeed it is a new edition of a collection of a comic book series from 2003. I think I must have read it twenty years ago, but none of it really rang a bell as I flipped through it. But that is understandable as this is not particularly memorable stuff, just being a rip-off of James Cameron's Aliens: Wolverine is transported to a post-apocalyptic world against his will to fight mutant bacteria mech-drones and their egg-laying queen. "“Drop Wolverine on it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure." The black-and-white art gallery in the back of the book shows the disservice the hideous dark-and-murky coloring job does to Tsutomo Nihei's linework. The choice to leave everyone's skin pure white in the midst of all the gloom gives us a ridiculous Goth Wolverine who looks more like Neil Gaiman's Sandman than our favorite Canadian mutant. WOLVERINE: SNIKT! by manga creator Tsutomu Nihei is a dark, Matrix-inspired horror graphic novel that pulls Wolverine into a dystopian future full of robotic organisms that are threatening the last remaining humans on Earth. I’ve read several complaints about this story being nothing more than a Matrix rip-off, and yes, it is heavily inspired by that story, but I feel the horror aspects and Nihei’s artwork really give this a unique twist and look, IMO. It has a couple of questions that could have been thought through a little more on the time travel aspect (how did these future humans know about him and his adamantium skeleton and what happened to Wolverine in this timeline’s past, for instance); this is one of those instances where you can’t put too much thought into the how and why, and just enjoy the story for what it is: a solo Wolverine story where he does what he does best. I haven’t experienced Tsutomu Nihei’s art before, and I’m a fan. I want to check out some of his other work now and see if it’s just as good as his work on SNIKT!. #wolverine #xmen #comicbooks #graphicnovel #manga #tsutomunihei #marvelcomics #vizmedia #bookstagram #horror #horrorbookcommunity #books #bookworm #booknerd #frommybookshelf #frommybookshelfblog inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
"WOLVERINE is the lone hope of the last remaining humans in a ruined dimension as they fight to survive against robotic organisms. Will he manage to save the day and keep his own humanity, or will he lose himself to the berserker rage deep inside him?"--Amazon. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

Story is short because hey, is there anything that can stop the berserker from leveling everything down? Of course not.
Art is Tustomu Nihei signature Blame-asque art. Characters are not that lanky though, but in general everything is pale and there is this oppression/depression in the air. Panoramas are as ever wonderful and I gotta admit level of sound effects is much greater than in Blame, at least for the signature snikt sound of Wolverine claws.
So, in general short story, pretty straight forward, with Nihei's bio-mechanical monstrosities being very familiar to anyone who came across the Blame comics.
But in what it is - short berserker mad story - it is rather good.
Recommended to fans of Wolverine all out action. ( )
