Aug 11, Chad rated it did not like it. This book is really disjointed. Each new issue switches back and forth between two authors, Charles Soule and Ray Fawkes. Each issue also has a different artist. Most of the art looks like try out issues for new artists and are awful. The book is losing what little focus it had. It was originally about helping heal the Paradise team before they died. Then they just up and disappeared and the book is really meandering. It just seems Blade and Fang Volume 2 filler until they bring back Wolverine. Shelves: marvel. Lots of talented people worked on this comic. But, then again, check out the cast of Dreamcatcher and you'll see right away that there is no guarantee of success as sometimes the whole is less than the sum of its parts. I have volume 3 signed out from the lending library, I'll probably thumb through it out of morbid curiosity but my expectations couldn't be any lower. View 2 comments. Apr 27, James Wolverines: Claw it it was ok. This was not that good. At least the last volume was following a plot with Shogun and his crew working with X and company Wolverines: Claw get cured. So he decides to be on some ol ghost of Christmas past shit and one This was not that good. So he decides to be on some ol ghost of Christmas past shit and one by one take everybody on an adventure to teach them a lesson Blade and Fang Volume 2 something. So after the abrupt conclusion of the quest for wolverine's corpse, could things get worse? Fang shows up, and he's now an all-powerful, immortal, invulnerable energy projector. What's up with that? He was just the Timber Wolf clone before! And then he takes the Wolverines on amazing adventures in individual issues. No, seriously, that's the plot. The Daken adventure was kind of dull, then when I got to the Sabertooth adventure, it was so boring that I skimmed it. Meanwhile, most of Blade and Fang Volume 2 cas So after the abrupt conclusion of the quest for wolverine's corpse, could things get worse? Meanwhile, most of the cast continues to be badly mischaracterized, especially now that we know they're not actually vulnerable to the magic words. The Wolverines apparently hung around with the Paradise losers just for yucks. And the art was again atrocious Wolverines: Claw at least half the volume. I probably won't waste any more of it on the rest of this "story". I'll also complain about the half-assed lack-of-attention to collection mapping. The first volume should have ended after issue 6 which completed the quest for Wolveirne's corpse or after issue Wolverines: Claw to break before Fang Wolverines: Claw upbut instead Marvel just mechanically broke these into 5-issue volumes. Jun 18, Quentin Wallace rated it liked it. This volume was strange. It starts off wrapping up the Mr. Sinister storyline although I'm sure the series will get back to him eventuallybut then it leads into Blade and Fang Volume 2 weird story where Fang from the Imperial Guard shows up and starts taking each member of the Wolverines on an adventure in order to Wolverines: Claw if any of them killed Wolverine. So far he's taken Daken and Sabretooth, and I think the next volume starts with X It just seems really strange and random to me since the Fang character h This volume was strange. It just seems really strange and random to me since the Fang character has barely been mentioned in the 40 years he's been around, although Wolverine did wear a Fang costume for a very short period of time. Its really not a bad story as I enjoyed it, but it just seems almost pointless, as I don't see where the story is going. The Wolverines: Claw isn't great, which isn't helping things. Overall I'm just curious to see where the next volume goes. Aug 02, Jonathan rated it it was ok Shelves: comics-graphic-novelscharles-soulemarvel-comicsreads. Following in volume one's footsteps, another severe disappointment. When has it ever Blade and Fang Volume 2 a good idea for a series to feature a different artist for every issue within an arc? And where in the sweet hell do they find these people who draw so horrible? Marvel should presumably have a list of the greatest artists in the world ready and willing to work for them; these artists on this story Wolverines: Claw belong anywhere near that list. Aug 13, sixthreezy rated it it was ok Shelves: marvelmarvel-nowx-men. Serves as an example as to why this series and many others in Marvel NOW! Sorry Charles Soule, I still like you.

Available at: https://trace.tennessee.edu/rgsj/vol9/iss2/4 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by Volunteer, Open Access, Library Journals (VOL Journals), published in partnership with The University of Tennessee (UT) University Libraries. This article has been accepted for inclusion in Tennessee Journal of Race, Gender, & Social Justice by an authorized editor. For more information, please visit https://trace.tennessee.edu/rgsj. The Underused Power of Jury Nullification Dave Hall Jury nullification is an inherent and powerful prerogative of the American jury, yet it is rarely used. This brief article defends the practice of jury nullification as an important lever for obtaining justice in our legal system, arguing that juries ought to exercise their power to nullify more frequently than they do. In mounting this defense, this article first outlines the history of nullification before presenting some of the traditional justifications for its use. It then considers a new model for justifying nullification proposed by Professor Paul D. Butler. In its last two sections, this article examines—and finds inadequate—some of the main criticisms levied against juries’ power to nullify, before finally offering a simple and elegant formulation for determining when nullification is proper.

Roberts Assistant Professor University of North Carolina Wilmington 601 South College Road Wilmington, NC 28403-5933 [email protected] Anita K. McDaniel Associate Professor University of North Carolina Wilmington 601 South College Road Wilmington, NC 28403-5933 [email protected] For full paper see International Journal of Comic Art (Spring/Summer, 2016) 2 It Started With A Kiss: Reframing Superheroines Visual Narratives Fig. 1 V J Day in Times Square The famous V J Day Kiss has been referred to as the most romantic moment in American history for decades. It is a photograph of a nurse in a sailor's arms taken in 1945 as the nation celebrated victory over Japan (Fig. 1). The image has been reenacted by countless couples on Times Square and recreated in popular art using a variety of fictional characters. The iconic photograph resembles the classic swoon—a man grasping a woman by the waist for a kiss while bending her backward such that she lifts one foot off of the ground. However, this version makes the woman an object of the kiss instead of interacting with it. Thus, the kiss appears less like a mutual act and more like an act of force (Benfanti, 2011: 16). Greta Zimmer, the “nurse” in the photograph, remembers it the following way. “It wasn't my choice to be kissed. The guy just came over and grabbed! I did not see him 3 approaching, and before I knew it, I was in his vise grip.
