Old Man Logan #19


printSizeImage

Old Man Logan, Issue #19 begins in  the Cellar, a maximum-security super prison.  Old Man Logan is breaking into the lower level - the Black Level - where the most dangerous prisoners are held.  We skip to nine days earlier, where he tries to get help from Illyana Rasputina, known as the X-Men, Magik.  Logan wants to go back to the Wastelands to help out Bruce Banner's grandson, with whom he was left in charge.  She won't help, so Logan goes after help with the one person who won't turn him down.

The art is done by Filipe Andrade, whose work I've enjoyed in the past, with colors by Jordan Boyd.  I'm used to the art of Andrea Sorrentino, but at least he does the cover.  The art is a little different, but not annoyingly so - it's not bad at all.  This has been and is a wonderful title, a good one to read in trade paperback form if you're not up with the comics.  I'm curious to see where this two-part arc goes.  Of course, the next arc is going to be in the Wastelands, but how will they get there?
