Wolverine and the X-Men #28 wraps up the current four-issue storyline as the students of the Jean Grey Institute complete their jungle training and bid farewell to acting professor Dog Logan. This arc doesn't result in any earth-shattering status quo changes for the series, but Jason Aaron provides enough quality character moments that it proves a satisfying finale regardless.
The most notable quality in issue #28 is Aaron's willingness to focus on the most underutilized characters. Glob Herman has rarely been anything more than comic relief in his various appearances, yet here readers learn a little bit more about the boy underneath the freakish exterior and what motivates him. Eye Boy is another standout player this month. His powers make him the lamest mutant this side of Maggot, but Aaron illustrates the myriad uses those many eyes serve. He even manages the unthinkable in making Eye Boy come across as the coolest kid in class.
