When Logan's sweetheart, Mariko Yashida ceases to reply to his letters, he takes the next flight out to japan to find her. This edition covers Wolverine's very first limited series and two Uncanny X-Men issues which cover the continuation of Wolverine's story arc. It’s like saying all English people drink tea or all American’s are fat. At points it’s like the Japanese culture was viewed through a pair of stereotyping goggles. I mean seriously? It’s like Japan only consists of these types of people according to the writers of this. Some were ninjas and there were even a couple of sumo wrestlers. Isn’t that just a little bit stupid? Most of the characters had swords. Then there is also the fact that every single Asian character seems to know martial arts.

It was like the same face model had been used for each one, two of the women looked almost identical. I hate to repeat the ignorant assumption made by some Westerners that Asian people all look the same, but the Japanese in here did look the same. The side characters were inconsistent they refused to behave in certain ways because of the sake of honour, but by the end they would do it anyway.

It wasn’t just him though that made this so poor. Logan’s monologue just lingered on the same ideas he kept explaining his abilities over and over across issues. Do I need to tell you again? I’m Wolverine I can’t die, so there’s no point reading this because there is no possibility that I will be defeated because my name is Wolverine. I can heal myself because I am called Wolverine. My name is Wolverine and I have an adamantium skeleton. Have you got that? No? Okay I shall tell you again. Claremont was also a contributor to the Wild Cards anthology series.
