Wolverine Weapon X #11 Review by (December 21, 2021)

Review: The calm before the storm: as the cyborg baddies are killing their way through New York, two heroes are having a friendly pub crawl, unaware of what is about to come over them all. The Logan/Steve scenes provide a nice, gentle reaffirmation of an unlikely long-term friendship with a cute interlude for Nightcrawler. But we see the horror they do not and is fast approaching. Some cool plotting by Jason Aaron and Ron Garney is always a welcome sight.

Comments: First appearance of Deathlok Prime. Only appearance of Slag a/k/a Jeffrey Winstone. Issue includes a six page preview for ELECTRIC ANT #1.

Wolverine Weapon X #11 Synopsis by Peter Silvestro

Jeffrey K. Winstone, with a body made of rock, sets out on his career as the superhero Slag but is immediately killed by a Deathlok, who moves on to his next target….

Wolverine and Steve Rogers go on a pub crawl to celebrate the latter’s recent return from the dead; Nightcrawler will serve as their designated driver in a borrowed jet from the X-Men….

Deathlok approaches a young couple on a rocky first date; informing them that they will marry and have a child who will go on to be a superhero, he guns them down in the street….

In Polynesia, Logan and Steve sit in a bar, talking about various things going on in their lives. Then a big guy complains about Logan’s choice of Hank Williams on the jukebox and is thrown through the window for his troubles. Nightcrawler calls Cyclops to say he’s won the bet with Logan lasting this long before starting a fight….

Deathlok slaughters several guards and staffers to enter a hospital to kill babies in the maternity ward….

Returning to New York, Steve and Logan part company to head home. Moments later, Logan is approached by a young woman named Miranda Bayer who claims she has had visions of the future and that Deathloks are now killing people who threaten that future….

With the death of latent telepath Winston Rowe, the Deathloks are assigned their new target: Captain America….
