To start off, I didn't know who Daken was until I read the Dark Avengers Omnibus and Siege. But I fell in love with him right from the get go. I knew he wasn't just another "Son of a superhero turned evil" as Ultimate Captain America's son was. While Daken's future goals aren't clearly defined in any of these issues, I expected this. As the first three issues in this HC are apart of the Wolverine Goes To Hell storyline that crosses over into Wolverine Vol. 1: Wolverine Goes to Hell and X-23, Vol. 1. Issue #4 involves Daken visiting his old friends, The Fantastic Four, in order to get a new weapon. Daken's character shows with him talking with Mystique (Before being attacked by a demonic Wolverine) and overtly flirting with Johnny Storm. Overall, I recommend this volume to anyone who is new to the Marvel Universe or a fan of Dark Avengers.
From Daken's inception he was always a pale version of Wolverine but his personality has grown and he is a devilishly likable character. While his back story, much like his father's is overly complex, he is still intriguing. This book shows Daken's new life path and while I wasn't up to date on some of the Marvel continuity I did enjoy the book. Daken's ability to completely toy with almost everyone's emotions is a treat to watch and the inclusion of Mystique here is really fun. The art was good and the actions scenes were fantastic. The drawback is that enough happened and there wasn't enough supposition for newer readers until the ended of the collection.
Wolverine's son, Daken, has inherited his pa's bone claws (though he has two instead of Logan's three) and grown up to become a superhero in his own right (however "hero" is an ambiguous term as the title suggests - "Dark Wolverine"). "Empire" introduces the character to those who aren't familiar with him, showing his arrogant and intimidating personality, his bisexuality, and his deadly murderous side throughout the book as he tries to hunt down his father and the man who killed his mother.The storyline runs alongside Jason Aaron's "Wolverine Goes to Hell" series, with Logan popping up in flames every now and then for some bone-popping action, and an X-Men fave shows up for a date with Daken, but otherwise not much happens. Daniel Way and Marjorie Liu are both decent writers who spend the book mostly setting the scene for a larger, more involved storyline than the ambling pace of "Empire", so the book couldn't be called a classic. But as an introduction to the character, it's a decent read and there is a full biography of Daken at the end so the new reader can get up to speed on everything the character's been through.
