…Kicks Off Search For The Blades Of Muramasa!

It is a blade he knows well and…

…has to go through Silver Samurai to find out where it might be.

In Otherworld, War and Pestilence approach a prisoner, a being named Solem,…

…who they see as they’re champion…

…on a quests to find his own Blade of Muramasa.

Wolverine got through the Silver Samurai and…

…has found who the Blade was named after in distress with a side-by-side confusing flashback or flashforward scene; all this is explained in X-Force #13 with X of Swords Part 4 (full spoilers here) also out this week.

The Pulse:

A slower paced issue, but impactful. Not clear on the relevance of the flashback / flashforward at the end. Solid art. 7 out of 10.
