Wolverine (2003) 21

Enemy of the State (Part 2)
By Mark Millar, John Romita Jr, Klaus Janson
Dec 2004

- Wolverine vs Elektra aboard the ship
- Wolverine continues to get orders from a voice inside his head
- Wolverine chops his way through some SHIELD agents before Elektra steps in, it seems that she has him on the ropes but Wolverine rigged some explosives to blow a hole in the side of the ship
- Wolverine gets sucked out into the Atlantic but survives the experience, fights with sharks
- the ship sinks but Elektra avoids drowning unlike the SHIELD personnel thanks to a containment or HazMat suit that she finds
- Nick Fury Elektra and many others meet aboard the Helicarrier 24 hours after Wolverine escapes, they believe that Wolverine has been programmed to take down (kill) other superheroes so that they can be subsequently be resurrected as the servants/assassins of the Hand
- brief glimpses inside the Xavier School and Baxter Building, the latter is being evacuated, only the FF are sticking around, a force field is erected around the building but it is too late because Wolverine is already inside

- love the art
- more splash pages
- Wolverine vs SHIELD agents
- Wolverine gutting a shark
- Wolverine hiding in an air duct in the Baxter Bldg about to strike

- so many great moments
- Wolverine vs Elektra
- Wolverine vs the Sharks
- quiet moment aboard the Helicarrier as Air Force One arrives
- Wolverine hiding in the air ducts of the Baxter Building

- nice mix of dialogue and silent storytelling
- Elektra reading Ulysses
- Elektra used to work for the Hand

4/5
