Wolverine & Jubilee: Curse of the Mutants Kindle & comiXology
For a loner, the mutant known as Wolverine sure has a lot of friends. Through the years, he's been a member of countless teams and alliances, but some of his relationships have been more tender in nature. He's had sidekicks of sorts in the likes of Kitty Pryde and X-23, and especially Jubilee. Finding a surrogate daughter in her, Wolverine has always tried to protect Jubilee from the dangerous life they lead. And now that she's fallen victim to a vampire's bite, she needs him more than ever - whether she likes it or not. As Jubilee spins out of control, Wolverine has dedicated himself to saving her humanity - but with her fate hanging in the balance, he may just have to kill a few people to stop her from doing the same. This time, protecting Jubilee may put them both in their graves!

It's not a story that will transform the Marvel U as we know it but not every story has to. So if you're looking for something cute and cool, this is for you.
I wasn’t disappointed. Which is to say, I was. Not only is the premise kind of weak (Jubilee is a vampire for some reason, but not really, but kind of—she never acts bloodthirsty, but exhibits some super powers that could be attributed to being a vampire), but it seems like a lot of action and plot happens off-page. I felt like I was missing big, big chunks of the story between pages. Characters were suddenly in different places without a lot of explanation of how they got there, or why they had to go there. I suppose I can’t criticize pointless dragons existing and showing up in a world that also has Lockheed, but they did seem randomly thrown in.
Maybe this is what comics are like nowadays and they avoid drawing much of the action? I’ll admit I haven’t read any X-titles from this century, so maybe there’s something I am expected to already know that would provide more context for the story in the collection. If that’s the case, perhaps it should be included in the volume. I was trying to get back into the series as a whole after being out of the loop for a couple of decades, and this collection didn’t really help. The inclusion of a vintage volume was a nice touch for anyone who wasn’t familiar with Jubilee’s origin, but was superfluous to an overall story that seemed to assume a lot more recent knowledge* of the series.
*That, or comics just no longer provide context and they jump around mercilessly on the reader. I’m not sure which is the case.

そんなジュビリーも、近年の展開でX-MENと吸血鬼軍団との戦いに巻き込まれ、吸血鬼となってしまいました。
無事救出され、洗脳も解けたものの、変わってしまった自分に悩むジュビリー……
この本は、そんな状況から始まります。
見所はなんと言っても、かなりの強キャラとして生まれ変わったジュビリーのパワー!
吸血鬼ならではのオチも痛快。
脇役ながら、若手X-MENロックスライドの存在感も○。
あと、巻末おまけイラストの肩車ジュビリーは必見(笑)
