Uncanny X-Periment # 22: "Wolverine and Kitty Pryde"

Wolverine and Kitty Pryde # 1-6

For the most part, this story is enjoyable. It seems a bit like some forced characterization for Kitty, but it's an entertaining story.

Kitty's father gets in some trouble with the Japaneese mob. Kitty goes to Japan to help her Dad and ends up in the hands of a samurai-demon-guy by the Ogun. She manages to contact Wolverine for help, but is then kidnapped by Ogun. Ogun proceeds to brainwash her, making her into a great warrior.

Logan shows up and battles Kitty and frees her. The process in which Logan de-programs her is very interesting and probably the best portion of the story.

The confrontation with Ogun is great. Wolverine's battle with Ogun is dynamic. Al Mligrom is masterful when it comes to the action.
