Marvel Comics & Wolverine #7 Spoilers & Review: X Of Swords Part 16 With FOUR More Contests, But All Is NOT As It Seems!

Spoilers, Top Story

Marvel Comics and Wolverine #7 Spoilers and Review follows.

X Of Swords Part 16…

..With FOUR More…

…Contests, But…

…All Is NOT As It Seems!

The book opens with a storyline catch-up and dramatis personae page.

We then open with our first contest…

…which is Magick vs. Pogg Ur Pogg…

…but it turns out not to be a sword fight…

…it’s an arm wrestling contest that the X-Men lose.

Next contest is Wolverine vs…

…Summoner through…

…some weird mindscape that…

…sees Summoner killed, but since it was a battle to the death and Summoner died, the dead man’s team actually wins. Wha?

The next contest is even more incomprehensible and the X-Men win their second one.

As Wolverine and Storm get close…

…Wolverine gets stuck in a battle with Solem and War…

…for Solem with a the winner being whomever maims the other first…

…Wolverine unhands War so Solem wins.

We then end with a checklist with what’s left in the X of Swords event across the Dawn of X titles.

The Pulse:

The contests are not all about swords wholly so it is somewhat intriguing. Art was good. 6 out of 10.
