Old Man Logan #11

Old Man Logan, Issue #11 continues the "Last Ronin" arc, which takes place in Japan.  In the previous arc, Old Man Logan battles Lady Deathstrike, and he follows her to Japan, where he comes across the Silent Order, which he had met up with in his earlier life.  Now, the Silent Order is at full strength, and to defeat them, he must team up with the woman who tried so hard to mess up his life, Lady Deathstrike.

I like where Old Man Logan is going.  The creators are focusing on four-issue stories rather than the mythology of why Old Man Logan is in the present.  I'm sure that'll come up later, but for now, they're on a hell of a run.  I picked up this comic because it's Jeff Lemire, but I quickly became fans of the artists.  Andrea Sorrentino and Marcelo Maiolo have drawn and colored this comic for a year without break.  And VC's Cory Petit is doing a great job of the lettering, breaking up the text with just enough bolds and italics to make it stand out.
