I've actually read very little of Wolverine's book prior to issue 70 ish. I'm actually kinda looking forward to getting there in my survey, just to encounter something new.

Perhaps it'...Weezie takes over from #55, yeah.<br /><br /><i>Perhaps it's the lingering fantasties of a teenaged bookworm, but I choose to believe those scenes are post-coital.</i><br /><br />But whoever heard of someone getting caught post flagrante delicto with their clothes already back on? That's not how things work in my experience.<br /><br /><i>Karma next pops up in a couple of the early, Claremont-penned issues of Wolverine's solo series</i><br /><br />Yeah, I've got to that bit in my readings. It seems Claremont was going to go somewhere with that but then you can see a clear editorial hand in #7/#8. After those Claremont will only write #10 and the subplot is forgotten. Karma reappears in the late 20s in an arc written by Jo Duffy, which may or may not bear any resemblance to what she'd wanted to do in Fallen Angels 2.Abigail Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13176919191948017238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5396083279099612355.post-61219420079044365512013-01-16T19:26:14.775+00:002013-01-16T19:26:14.775+00:00#54 was Claremont's last issue, correct? I'...#54 was Claremont's last issue, correct? I've always kind of enjoyed this story for the New Mutants/Hellions interplay, but it's also frustrating because, as fun as it is, this is pretty much the last New Mutants/Hellions story, as Weezie ignores them before giving way to Liefeld, and then they're killed off after the soon-to-be-Image guys take over the X-books.<br /><br /><i>This might possibly warrant adding them to the chart, except that the dialogue seems more pre-coital</i><br /><br />Perhaps it's the lingering fantasties of a teenaged bookworm, but I choose to believe those scenes are post-coital. Go Doug! :)<br /><br /><i>According to the letters page in New Mutants #65, this was to have been a plot in Fallen Angels 2, which never did happen for various reasons... </i><br /><br />I haven't read the issues, but if memory serves, Karma next pops up in a couple of the early, Claremont-penned issues of Wolverine's solo series, but then disappears until a random Beast miniseries in the 90s that kinda resolves the by-then ridiculously-long simmering kidnapped siblings plot in a pretty 90s way (I think cyborgs are involved?). <br /><br />Austin Gortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281239771248780430noreply@blogger.com
