I laughed so hard at the face Emma made when Wolverine asked her if Cyclops knew she and IM used to "team-up"

(A little to big to add the image tags)

Plus I always thought the "I'm the best there is at what I do" thing was kinda overused, but then Guggenheim pops out with:

"I'm the best there is at what I do, and this is what I'm doing today"

while taking on 3 Damage Control goons. Not a big thing but still cool.
And another great issue by Ramos. There's a great Civil War recap montage page.
Plus Forge showing up was cool. I always liked him.

Edit: Seeing as I'm now the thread starter, I'll write a better synopsis.

Wolverine visits Damage Control (DC) headquarters and shows the president of the company the MGH, telling her that Walter Declun (the CEO) has been gave it to Nitro, who then blew up Stamford. She says she had no idea and never liked Declun, who then interrupts and kicks Wolverine out for trespassing. Wolverine planted an advanced wire-tap built by Forge before he left and after gets Forge to analyse the data after retrieving it. He confirms that DC has been increasing the number of superhero battles to get the cleanup contracts. They're also getting government contracts for superhero registration, evaluation, training, etc. Forge tells Logan that he's up against a corporation, not a person he can hit. Wolverine doesn't care, he just needs to know where to hit. (He could try getting them all out on a boat and feeding them to sharks :D)
So after taking down a few of DC's branches Scott and Emma reprimand Wolverine for getting involved in the humans affairs. Logan says they're both scared of getting in the middle but that being a hero means they're supposed to get involved.
Wolverine starts attacking DC again, so Walter Declun buys a Roxxon building to set a trap for Wolverine. Knowing full well it's a trap, Wolverine goes anyway and gets into a fight with the 3 goons who have armor that's been salvaged from various superhero battles. One of them gets the drop on Wolverine and brings Whirlwinds adamantium buzzsaw to Wolverine's neck, saying he thinks the only thing that can cut through adamantium is adamantium. He then starts slicing through Wolverine's neck.

I like the art.

And I really like the story. The idea that a private company would/could manipulate public and political events to maximize profits is quite timely. There are many companies that are making loads of cash because of the Iraq/Terror war (one of them being Cheney's Haliburton). I really like the way that Guggenheim has taken a real world issue and framed within the CW context. Really well thought out and planned story.

So in this issue, Wolverine goes and basically is trying to take down the whole Damadge Control, Inc. and at the very end he gets in a fight with robots and about to get his head cut of by adaptanium circular saw...

Anyhow..I thoght this issue was pretty cool, I liked how emma frost looked like a total hoochie mama.

Ya, I think the art is just amazing...except the huge neck isn't really wowing me, but i can live with it.

I can't believe how bad marvel's making damage control look in this... Not only are they giving them the whole blame for Stamford, but they're freaking salvaving trashed Stark industries equipment! That's just plain evil! Tony would actually be VERY pissed if he knew! :eek:

Well to be fair, the President of the company had no idea what was going on. It was the "evil" CEO.
So I guess there is some chance of them being redeemed.

And the funny thing is, Tony probably wouldn't even do anything about it, because at this point they HAVE helped his situation. And if this come out, it'll totally ruin his whole scheme.

I hope Guggenheim deals with this on the next issue.

The artwork is fine. I think Ramos is way better on Wolverine then he was on Spider-Man and i think his art suits wolverine just fine. As for the issue, i was hoping it would be Wolverine and Namor but i guess Namor is busy rounding up the sleepers

I really love this creative team, it has been soooooo long since I've cared about Wolverine but this title w/ this team is slowly moving up my pull list. I mean w/ everything that came out this week Wolverine was in my top 5 of issues to read in the car.

This is definitely one of my favorite stories of the Civil War tie-in. And I admit the art looks a bit anime, but I really dig it.
