In 2011, Marvel Entertainment teamed with Japanese animation studio Madhouse on a set of four 12-episode anime series, each featuring Marvel superheroes sent on adventures in Japan. Each overseen by problematic comic superstar Warren Ellis, the shows were a unique blend of traditional Marvel tales with anime sensibilities. As these shows have recently been added to US Netflix streaming, we figured it's a perfect time to take a look at one of those series, WOLVERINE, which sees Logan trying to save his love, Mariko, from Shingen, her crime-lord father, and Hideki, an evil gangster she is being forced to marry. How does the series stack up against other Wolverine adaptations, and X-Men stories in general? We offer our thoughts. But first - A "rumor round-up" examining recent scuttlebutt about a possible MCU Storm movie and Evan Peters reprising Quicksilver in WANDAVISION; Kevin Feige talks DEADPOOL 3; and we try to fan-cast Ben Affleck in the X-Men universe.
