A surprisingly fun introduction to Daken's role in the Dark Avengers/Dark X-Men. Rather than immediately set up a situation between Logan and Norman Osborne, we see Daken using The Fantastic Four, Bullseye (playing the role of Hawkeye), Ares, and Venom (playing the role of Spider-Man) to try and take HAMMER down from the inside.

I may have skipped this title when it first came out, and, if so, I regret it.

I recommend this for fans of Marvel politicing, Fantastic Four enthusiasts, and anyone who likes a double agent story where the audience is clued it to forthcoming betrayals.

Wolverine had a son? I must have missed that somewhere - I guess I was reading all that much Marvel in 2007. I kind of picked this one up from the library - mostly because I found the writer, [a:Marjorie M. Liu|35022|Marjorie M. Liu|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1268491375p2/35022.jpg], to be pretty consistently awesome. And this book was good. It took place right in the middle of a story I barely know - with Osborne running some aspect of the government - and Daken playing Wolverine. And it didn't matter because the writing was great and the art certainly good enough. And the Dark Avengers are a hell of a lot more interesting than the regular Avengers. But part of that is because this is a single character book sitting inside the Avengers. Make me want to go hunt out sequels and prequels.

Evil bisexual son of Wolverine trying to slowly, slowly build an empire. What's not to like?

This was very good. I read the second volume before this, and that was mediocre, but this was a great start to this series. I don't know what happened to it. This character is so complex and interesting...would have liked to have seen this go in this direction.
