This is kind of a weird collection, but I liked it. I guess it was all tied in to the movie THE WOLVERINE, so it picks a few issues that relate to it and then gives kind of a “if you liked these, read this TPB next!” and often gives a little text summary to lead you into the next few issues. It's both a good marketing technique for Marvel comics and also really helpful.
Anyway, some of this is the Japan/Mariko stuff that, as previously mentioned, I don't especialllly care for, but then there's some other Wolverine in a Sadness Cave stuff that I like more. And also, Spider-Man teaming up with an amnesiac Black Widow against Viper intercut with a Jimmy Carter speech, because literally why not.
