Old Man Logan (story arc)

[evolution]

Here we can discuss and talk about the: Old Man Logan (arc).

First off, in this (arc) Wolverine (or should I say/Logan) is depicted as a character who seems passive. He has given up violance and now has a family.

Second, the character Hawkeye seems to be the one telling the story; should this be a Hawkeye (book).

Third, same characters and there appearances I can understand, but if new create new characters out of the blue, and don't give a sort of back-story--no one will know where they came from or who they even are.

Last, its now three issues into the story. When they say they broke Wolverine (stated in issue #67). I wonder if they some removed the adamantium from his body once again, and if so are his claws bone. Because they broke him.

Since we're in pure speculation mode an' none of this is a spoiler, I think we're reading an old western, or watching The Quiet Man (old John Wayne movie). Logan's the gunslinger who hung up his guns or the fighter who won't fight. Whetever happened to Logan isn't something that someone did to him (at least as far as he's concerned) - it's something he did that he can't forgive himself for. I think that's the big mystery of this whole story: what could Logan have done that was so terrible that he'd go to an extreme he never went to before and completely renounce violence?

I don't think the answer is that he killed all the heroes. First it's too simple. Second it's not plausible (unless he temporaily gained the strength and invulnerability of the Sentry). Third, if it were known that Wolverine had single-handedly killed all the Marvel heroes in an all-on-one fight no one would want to go near him. But I also don't think "survivor guilt" at being the only one left alive is enough to explain it. I'm hoping there's something more.
