Pandasaurus has announced a new 2 player set collection game District Noir is coming this summer. Preorders will start on May 19th with retail release planned for July 19th. District Noir was originally published in Japanese by Taikikennai Games in 2016 as Throne and Grail. It was then published in 2019 as Chocolate Factory by Nasza Księgarnia in Polish. The current art and theme was published last year in French by Spiral Éditions. When the time is right, gain control! At the head of the city’s largest criminal organizations, men and women fight to control territories and gain support by trying every means possible to grow their influence. Control of the District Noir, a central and highly contested area, remains the major issue that will make all the difference in dominating the city. There are two paths to victory: win over District Noir's various supports, or directly control the city’s three strategic locations. Before players can claim these, they must be played to the center

Wolverine MAX #2 - Permanent Rage Chapter Two Review

Wolverine MAX #2 Review


Wolverine MAX #2 Cover
Meet Victor Creed!

As Logan investigates the crash that wiped his memory, he uncovers things about his past he didn't want to know!

Cover/Solicit - 4/5

- Would I pick-up the comic based on the solicit/cover alone? Are the alternate covers appealing? Does the solicit/cover portray what happens in the issue?

Art - 3/5

- Do I personally like this artist's style? Does the artist stay true to the characters appearance?

Colors/Ink/Lettering - 3/5

- Does the work blend well with the artist? Is the coloring/inking enjoyable and easy to distinguish what's happening? Can I easily read the lettering?

Layout/Flow - 4/5

- Does the layout of the issue make it easy to read? Does the issue have a good flow of the plot and keep me engaged?

Story - 3/5

- Weighted Triple. How well did the issue further develop the current story? How well did the issue further develop the characters? Did I enjoy reading the issue?



Verdict - 3.3

- Wolverine MAX has been going for an artistic approach for the covers and this is no exception. I just wish I liked the interior art more. Wolverine just looks strange here, and the coloring and inking seemed to muddy detail. The flow of this issue seems to work better than the last, but that's probably because we know more about the story and characters involved. I'm always confused if MAX is in an alternate universe or not, I believe it is and that's how I'm reading the series. This issue bounces back and forth between Logan trying to figure out what happened and how the plane crashed since he lost his memory, and Logan's past in Japan with Sabretooth (Creed). I'm holding out for this series, as I've been told Marvel's MAX series are something to read, but if it continues I'll drop it like I did Fury Max.
