Absolutely!!! Those are the best wolverine stories. He's ok when he teams up with other superheroes, but wolverine is best on his own, interacting with the real world. He's a great, tragic character

Totally agree! His popularity and demand made him a part of every single marvel team and our loner became a team player. That's why Hellboy is my favorite series. One writer, two artists and one story with a beginning and an ending.

Hell yea. He's always down to do the dirty work

Haha totally. So fitting for him

@@MaguffinMan "WOLVERINE is a" "Weapon" of Death(See What I've did there?)

Haha yes!! Love it

Yes! Totally! The best wolverine stories are when he's on a solo adventure, western style and Rucka understands the character so well! Great run.

My man. Thank you. I'm working on a Hellboy idea for next week!

I got PLENTY of comics I can talk about. Zero manga tho haha

Same here!!!!! I think the cover art I used for the thumbnail is still my favorite wolverine art ever. ....just sitting there annoyed that he got shot. Total badass

Yeaaaasssssss, WHAT A RUN to start with!!!!

Love how wolverine looks in this

Yeassssss dude!!!!!

I remember when I dug it back up to make the video and read it, I was like "this shit rocks"

Hell ya dude!! I wish more people knew about Brotherhood. I've only made a few of these comic book vids. I'm usually happy with how they turn out but they take sooooo long to make 🤣🤣. I'm thinking of doing another one on a comic where Wolverine is hunting down Mystique in 2 different time periods

@@MaguffinMan would definitely love to watch!

🤣🤣😝

Thanks dude!

Same!! Wolverine got so popular over the years that they threw him on every team ever. It's refreshing to see him on a solo revenge quest

My favorite wolverine stories are him just doing what he does best by himself. And this one really captured that which I love about the character. He tends to care for people and will make anyone who hurts them pay as he himself is a product of pain brought about by horrible people. @@MaguffinMan

@@OmniMac 10000000000%

Thanks man!!! Idk if you have ever heard of the "MAX" series, but Wolverine MAX is a lot of fun and it's pretty brutal

Hell yea, thanks!!!

Thanks so much!!! I have a couple other videos like that and plans for more in the future

Dude, right!?!?!?! It would be awesome 🤘

Thanks so much!! I'm honestly just thankful for even 1 subscriber hahaha. I love making vids and anyone that can tolerate me enough to subscribe is awesome 🤘🤘

Soon

🤘

What was that punisher story??? I miiiiight have read that. I had a 6 month period where I dove into punisher comics but had to stop when he became Franken-castle 🤣🤣🤣

@@MaguffinMan I stopped reading The Punisher for a while when they did the Franken-Castle story also. I think Rucka's Punisher took place before or a bit after. Greg Rucka's Punisher story was more about ex-Marine Rachel Cole Alves who witnesses her whole entire family get massacred by a gang hit and she becomes the sole survivor. With vengeance on her mind, she sets out to find the gang that killed her soon to be husband and both sides of her family. The Punisher is also on the gang's tale and takes Rachel Cole Alves under his wing. It was basically Rucka showing that only one person could really ever the Punisher. Rucka Portrays The Punisher as a force of nature much like his wolverine tale but also shows a more human side to Frank Castle since he takes Rachel Cole Alves under his wing. I highly recommend it. There are 3 trades to the first part but the final five issues that trade is out of print or very high priced for some reason.

@shanevandagriff3794 yeasssssss that sounds awesome. I'll check at my comic shop when I'm "holiday shopping" and if it's not there, I'll resort to the internet. Thanks!!

@@MaguffinMan No Problem. After Watching your video on Rucka's Wolverine story I been reading it online. I love it. Will have to add it to my collection if I can find the trade next time I am at the comic shop.

@shanevandagriff3794 hell ya!! I'm thinking of doing another comic book video on Get Mystique. It's a really fun series where wolverine is hunting down Mystique while also reminiscing about when they first met in the wild west. Thing is, I recently did a big star wars video AND a Berserk video so I'm tired hahahahha. The comic vids take forrrrrever to make 🤣

Hell ya, that would be great!! They could even spread that across different times in history

Haha you might be one of two people in the comments that have actually read this story arc. I love it. In the era of marvel netflix shows, it would have been a great 6-8 episode series

@@MaguffinMan Well, likewise, it was cool to see someone talk about it. I _would_ talk about it, but I never knew anyone else that read Wolverine comics.

Oh man, I went through a wolverine phase where I read ALL the wolverine comics. I've made 1 other comic book video, but I'll definitely do more in the future.

@@MaguffinMan Well, damn. I definitely haven't read ALL the Wolverine comics, but always been a fan of the character since the animated series when I was a kid, and I've read quite a few. When I first started reading in the early 2000's, they didn't have anywhere near as many collected editions as they do now. So, collecting the singles, the further I'd try to go into his backlog, there was missing issues and holes galore, and money was limited. What's been really interesting is in the past few years having now read the three Uncanny X-Men omnibuses, -- starting with the very first All New, All Different when Wolverine first joined the team -- and watching the character really evolve from his infancy in kind of real time. I've learned that John Bryne pretty much made Wolverine. The character really wasn't shit until John Bryne got a hold of him. Claremont and Dave Cockrum certainly contributed some things, but Bryne really defined him. Highly recommend reading those if you haven't. Some really good stuff in there. Instocktrades.com has that kind of stuff on the cheap if you're interested.

Oh hell yea man! I'll check that out. The last few years, I became obsessed with hellboy. That series is my all time favorite. 1 writer, 2 artists AND it actually has an ending. Hellboy is over and I love it

Definitely recommend it. That whole run is awesome

Thanks man! It's a good Wolverine run

YES!!!! It would be a great movie

Yeaaaassssss dude!!!!

Hell yea!! I think I saw it at a Barnes and noble or something and I was so happy I got it

Yes!!! Hell yes!!!!

🤘🤘🤘

I didn't just stumble on this arc bub, I searched it from memory. Lol, definitely one of my faves bro!

@masterroshi1015 I've read so many wolverine stories and that one always stays at the top for me. I've considered covering the arc "Get Mystique" where wolverine hunts down Mystique. It's a blast!!

@@MaguffinMan back in 2003 I wrote an amateur story with Wolverine and Blade. They fought, figured out they want to gut the same aholes and teamed up. Vampires stand up to adamantium like they do to titanium and silver...he he he he. I enjoyed writing their lead up and fight scence tbh. Kept it Rucka gritty before I knew who he was lol, then I read Brotherhood and I was blown away. I couldn't believe how raw, true to character, emotional and the closure, he wrote Logan perfectly imo.

@masterroshi1015 oh hell yea, that sounds awesome!!!! That's a great team up and I'm always down for a sweet vampire story, especially if Wolverine is slicing em up

I had the run, borrowed it to a friend, then they moved and took it 😑. Then I did read it again on unlimited, but was able to find the trade again at a comic book convention. Worth the hastle 🤣

Dude, that's great to hear. Awesome right!!!!?!??!

@MaguffinMan Definitely could've been a movie. Or a 6 part HBO Max series

@@cee119 1000000000%, AND it's such a good depiction of the character

I've read House of X, but not the solo Wolverine series. I never know what's going to happen with him haha. It's always a struggle between his personality and his popularity that keeps writers on their toes

Yea? I'm down to do more

Hell ya, you'll love it. That entire run I'd awesome. I think Enemy of the State is part of that series too. Basically wolverine gets brainwashed and takes down all the big superheroes one by one

@@MaguffinMan lol, I’m literally, on eBay right now looking

@ChristopherWysocki-id3eh yeaaaasssssss, I could go on and on about that run. There was a time where I read nothing but wolverine comics hahahha. The earlier wolverine origins comics are pretty good too. They eventually go off the deep end, but all the stuff with wolverine's son Daken is sweet

@@MaguffinMan I will definitely look into it , keep making these. Your damn good at it, I laughed out loud… like three times. Well done sr.

@ChristopherWysocki-id3eh thanks a lot man, I haven't made a lot of those comic book vids because they take a lot of work to create lol. HOWEVER, I have another Wolverine comic I'd like to talk about so keep an eye out 🤘

Ooooo good call!!

Oh totally!! I never made the connection before, that's awesome

Cya later!

It's an awesome comic, I love it

@@MaguffinMan yes sir heheh so awesome tye story to

So cool if you have a friend like logan ,men i will kill for you hahaha

@@RoQueRenel24 🤣🤣

90s wolverine was great. That's when Sabertooth was also way more brutal

Definitely!! It starts out with wolverine doing solo adventures and I think it's the same run that goes into Enemy of yhe State.....and that's awesome because wolverine is brainwashed and uses his best abilities to take down all the heroes 🤘🤘🤘

@@MaguffinMan Thank you bro, awesome video.

Is that arc from Punisher Max????

@@MaguffinMan ye

@@Janintong sweet!!.....I think ....I own that 🤣🤣🤣 I'll have to dig it up

That whole run is awesome. It went from 2003-2009 so that would keep you busy for a while lol. I was also a fan of Wolverine Origin for a while. It's when he starts getting all his memories back and goes to get revenge on all the people who wronged him in life. It starts out great then ends kinda weird 😂😂

WOOOOOOOO

That entire run of wolverine is great. I think the arc Enemy of the State is part of that, check that one out!!!!

@@MaguffinMan thanks

Hell ya. He's just an ugly little man that's so badass, the chicks come after him 🤣🤣

Haha idk man!!!

@@MaguffinMan honestly i just stumbled upon you. Your narrative is impeccable and your funny as well. Keep it up. You'll go far.

Oh damn I really appreciate that man! I have plans to make more comic book videos too so keep an eye out. Thanks for the support!

@@MaguffinMan no problem man! Will def keep watching your channel

Hell yea dude!

I have the trade, which was 6 or 7 issues, but the entire run that Greg Ruca wrote was awesome.

Ya!! I just found his run as a 260 page volume on Amazon, so it's definitely out there

That's a good point, but enemy of the state is so much fun. Wolverine at his weapon X best

Wolverine's life is such a tragedy. He's so cool but he went through way too much pain to become that cool

Oh that's awesome!!

@@MaguffinMan Yeah I forgot the name of the comic but it's a solo story though if I remember correctly Gambit was there for a minute with him kicking butt but it was mostly him doing what he does solo.

@richardpage5812 gambit is a blast in small doses lol

@@MaguffinMan And that's what you got in that comic a small dose. I wish I could remember the title of the comic.

@richardpage5812 that's just right then lol. Let me know!!! I wanna check it out

I do believe so, but the writers and artists changed a few times over the whole run

Oh ya!?!?!? Aight I'll check it out. I love Jason Aaron

I just looked it up. I totally read it hahaha. LOVE that run!!!!

Haha totally!! Wolverine isn't attractive, he's just a mean asshole that chicks are into lol. Ooooo Armitage is a good call!!! I'm down for that

Yea, they kinda did! I miss marvel netflix. DD is one of the best shows on netflix

Heck yea!!

Not gunna lie, that was exhausting. 10 min vid from 90 min of footage

Maguffin Man You’re DEEP into that quarantine lmao 90 minutes!!!?!? Wanna drink and FaceTime later 🤣

I gotta keep an eye on my stock of alcohol. Dont wanna deplete my supplies too early hahahaha

Sadly, I think not

Looks like u can get that run for like $50 on Amazon. I just searched Greg Ruca wolverine and a collection popped up. Issues 1-19, 260 pages

@@MaguffinMan, thanks for that.

@@Grimlock987 🤘🤘🤘

@@MaguffinMan, I tried to find this book on Amazon but no luck. It’s one of those books you want in your collection.

@Grimlock987 this is what I saw... Wolverine by Greg Rucka Ultimate Collection a.co/d/9ft12pj

Duuuuuuude. I'd immediately buy it. OR an Enemy of the State wolverine game where he gets brainwashed and takes out all the superheros

@@MaguffinMan i can see it! insomniac is building a universe to take liberties like that. What hero would you want them to do next??

Dude, silver surfer would be a fun ass game

@@MaguffinMan that’d be insane some onboard combat across the universe with next gen graphics mann

Hell yea, zooming around to different plants
