: 1) Is this book ORIGIN I picked up yesterday (after about a 5 year hiatus from comics) really revealing Wolverine/Logan's origin?
Yes. Until everyones opinion is that they dont like it and it will change, maybe.
: 2) What else besides "Final Night" should I read before I start the GA QUIVER arch, as I've never read any Green Arrow or Lantern shit before?
Yes, just kidding umm you could go the crossroads issues of the last GA series, picking up a zero hour would help you out too really. They were issues around #80-#90 cant remember better than that.
: 3) What the fuck happened to the X-Men? Why are there so fucking many, and which is which and has what in it? And Spider-Man too? Which book(s) do I pick up if I just want to read the current regular old Spidey or X-Men stories?
Well onslaught happened mostly.... but as the cast grows you dont really expect for everyone to be in the same book, it would be novel size once a month, which isnt such a bad thing but this is good too. X-men has rogue and wolverine mostly, while uncanny has jean grey, beast and gambit and the rest of the titles have the rest of them (but i never strayed that far as i thought they were the best of the set)
And i gave up on Spidey just after the clone debarkle. So your on your own on that one binky, but i do think that something along the lines of something happened to the clone? Or Peter Parker got a teaching job or something, like i said i lost interest in spiderman just after the clone thing and aunt may dying. See my next answer about why i like marvel again.
: 4)Any recommendations?
Go the Ultimates, ultimate x-men, ultimate spiderman - if you dont wanna shell out read them online at marvel.com (i also read the online version of elektra which i think is being written by Bennis who is writing ultimate spiderman and it looks all good)
