This seems like a good thread to revive to talk about Millar's "Holocaust Wolverine" issue.

Which, really, is pretty good. And not very Millar-like, it seems to me.

Although, you'd think Wolverine could be doing something more proactive during WWII than using the concentration camps to satisfy his masochistic tendencies and waiting for the Germans to kill themselves.

seventeen years pass...

At some point between this thread and 2008 I decided Millar was an objectively terrible writer but I’m not sure when I made that decision. I’m very surprised to see myself arguing in favor of the existence of Ultimate X-Men, which aged at the time like an armpit full of sour cream and that I actively hated after like 3 issues.

Yeah, sometime after Ultimates 2 (which I remmeber as being excellent but have no wish to revisit) he got bad and stayed bad IMO.
