Wolverine vs the X-Men; in which Logan tries to defeat the demons inside his mind.
However, he has some help along the way. Also, two
X-Men of Logan's past show up.
What I liked was the story plot.
What I didn't like was the art work;
the artist could have done better.

Agreed.
The whole idea of literally putting Logan through hell and the consequences of knowing he's damned if something doesn't change - seem to work better as a motivation to pushed Logan forward than the whole saga of Wolverine: Origins. Jason Aaron is writing the Wolverine stories I want to read. It's been a looooooong time since there was a regular writer on Wolverine who'd done that (probably the Larry Hama run). Next issue promises more Mystique, and that's another thing I like about Aaron's stories - he's not shy about using Wolverine's best villains (even if he has to send Wolverine to hell to meet a few). While he continuing to evolve new villains that provide a realy believable threat even many of these (like the Red Right Hand and the gangs of China-town) seem to have a connection to his past.
And I would prefer another colourist for Acuna's drawings - I don't care for the design-marker look.
Look at page 5, panel 4 (Emma peeking into Logan's sexual fantasies) - who is the woman on the far right? I don't recognize her costume and the face is too minimal to help.

The woman in the middle isn't Wolverbane, she's Squirrel Girl (formerly of the Great Lakes Avengers) who's currently the Nanny for the New Avengers. Bendis alluded to a romantic past between them when he brought her into the book.
That fifth one's Betsy? Well I could understand her being there, but I didn't recognize her.
