The sheer number of torments that Wolverine describes as existing in hell on the first page was enough to make the issue for me. Jason Aaron continues to impress with his ability to write various genres and characters and write them well. I haven't read anything by him that I don't like. This concludes his arc with Wolverine in hell and the story was entertaining throughout. His conversation with his father was a particular high point in this issue, allowing the reader to better understand where Logan comes from and, ultimately, where he'd like to go. It's the nature/nurture question brought to it's most extreme. The final scene in hell, with Puck taking over, planted a wonderful seed for future storylines and for the return of an underused character that I've always had an affinity for.
Wolverine's final interaction with Mariko was a low note for me. I don't believe that he would leave her as quickly as he did with so little arguement. Other than that, the issue was spot on.
The art is good. I'm not absolutely blown away by it but it certainly isn't bad in any way (I'm really terrible at reviewing art, all I can tell you is whether I thought it was awesome, good, or bad). Kudos to colorist Matthew Wilson for the subtle touch of making Wolverine's skin a reddish-hue. I wouldn't occur to a lot of people, but of course he'd have a sunburn in hell.
Art: 3 - Good
