Wolverine 90. I know 'cause I looked it up to download it.
I have Wolverine 87 laying around somewhere, the issue where he fights Deathstrike. Gorgeous.

Wolverine 90 is one of the greatest comics ever.
I drew a huge version of that cover for high school art class.

It is now on my pull list of stuff to dig out when I go home this weekend.
Were there any other great Wolvie arcs?

I think the original Claremont/Miller series is the best there is?

You should also dig out to see if you have an extra copy of Batman/Deathblow #1 and send it to me.
I'll recommend the very recent, very excellent "Get Mystique" arc, by Aaron and Garney.

The four issue mini? Never read
There's a run by Sam Keith in Marvel Comics Presents which I recall enjoying but that could be due to his insane art style.
My favorite Wolverine arcs were probably 75-105ish. I actually liked when it was him and Elektra and they were trying to regain is humanity in the low 100's. I alos like Erik Larsen's run (I want to say 125 and up?).
Really, I ate up ANYTHING that Kubert drew for Wolverine. Same goes with Hulk, I could only stomach that series when the Kube drew it.

So, did anybody grab Wolverine 73? The part written by Jason Aaron with art by Adam Kubert is really hilarious, playing on the theme of Wolverine's over-exposure.
The second part had gorgeous art by Tommy Lee "No sketchy for Frenchy" Edwards but the story (by Daniel Way) was rather generic.

Aaron's story was absolutely brilliant. I wonder how it's going to end. Kubert should go back to the old days, though: two issues in three months, oversized paper and FUCKING GORGEOUS art. I still like his stuff, but it seems so rushed.
