Quick Hits: Wolverine #313 (Marvel)

About a year ago I learned that Jeph Loeb had not only already done a Wolverine story but was soon going to be doing another one.  I have a great appreciation for Loeb's writing (most recently in the must-read Nova #1), and so figured I'd check the second one out.  For whatever reason I kept missing it.  And then it ended and the series moved on.  Thankfully some comics shops keep a deep inventory on their new release shelves, and so some of the stuff you'll find their is pretty old indeed.  This issue was published last year and is the conclusion of the Sabretooth arc in which Logan's famous foe and erstwhile brother attempts to convince him that it was Logan himself who decided to enter the Weapon X program that famously gave him his adamantium and lost him his memory.  Much like Scott Snyder in "Death of the Family," Loeb hedges his bets at the end of the story, but it's fine, because it's still Loeb and he still knows how to do character better than just about anyone.  So I'm glad that I've finally read at least some of his Wolverine.
