"Past Lives" is shaping up to be a pretty uneven finish to Jeff Lemire's Old Man Logan run. There's a definite appeal in seeing Logan revisit key moments from his life and deal with the emotional fallout, but that formula hasn't been quite enough to keep the momentum going. The good news is that issue #23 introduces just enough wrinkles to the now-familiar formula to suggest that the arc may be able to wrap on a high note in Old Man Logan #24.
This issue devotes most of its page count to revisiting two specific points in Logan's past - his Madripoor misadventures and a friendly mutant baseball game set during the team's early '90s era. Again, it's fun catching a glimpse of Logan in his prime, but the arc continues to hit a lot of familiar beats as his chaotic temporal journey continues. The attempt to add tension to the conflict by having Wolverine seek out his wayward amulet in Madripoor doesn't really amount to much.
