Wolverine: The Brotherhood (Greg Rucka)

I picked up this Wolverine comic because it was written by Greg Rucka, whom I've discovered I like. It was interesting seeing Wolverine outside the X-Men circle.

In The Brotherhood, Wolverine goes on a mission seeking justice for a young murdered woman, and kills plenty of people along the way. Which is basically why you read a Wolverine comic, I guess - to see plenty of panels of Wolverine going psycho with his claws. Rucka writes Wolverine with a lot of humanity as well, I think, while retaining that very taciturn thing. I like it a lot, but will probably read other things before continuing with the series.
