origin #6...totally confused!!!
alright...i grew up reading the x-titles in high school, then they pulled the whole "alternate universe" storyline through all the titles, i think it was for 4 months, anyway, marvel pissed me off and i became bored with their marketing ploys...so i dropped them.
heard of a miniseries of wolverine's origin, sounded interesting, so i picked it up. WHO THE HELL IS WOLVERINE'S "BROTHER"?? i'm assuming that he's a character that is pretty recent...it's not sabretooth, i hope?

I did not pick up Origin #6 yet because I heard it leaves us high and dry and that there are plans for another mini-series of this coming because of the good sales of this one. Pisses me off!
Anyway, to answer your question (and I have not read #6 yet):

I gave up on the X-books years ago. This crap is so convoluted that it hardly makes sense. Jemes and Quesada claimed that this would explain everything. Well it looks that this may have been an exageration.

I'll wait and pick up the trade on this one. Reviews have been pretty neutral and I read the reprint of #1 and it didn't exactly make me jump up and down. I think the actual book reads OK but the hype has been very out of line to what the story itself really is. Kind of built the expectations up too high with it.

Hopefully that was what you are looking for. If you want you can go to www.marvel.com and hit dotComics. You can read all of the Origin issues (1-6) on there now.

one thing I hate about this Origins book is that they are answering questions that shouldn't be touched.
they shouldn't spoon feed you wolvie's past when for decades it's been a mystery. kills the surprise and guess work of it.
as for the claws. Well they stated a lot of times that the claws were not his power. but then they made it so that he still had a bone structure of claws when Magneto ripped out the adimantium(sp) from his body.
they should mess with wolvies past. it is something that is better left untold. oh well.

Wolverine's "mysterious past" has been so poorly handled over the past decade that I don't think anyone much cares anymore.
Sabretooth is his father! No, he isn't! Silver Fox was his girlfriend and killed by Sabretooth! No, they were both supersecretagents! Implanted memories! *yuck*
That crap was so lame...

I agree. all the little hints they dropped in the past years in the comics and then took back are just lame. they were trying to test the waters and seeing if that certain back story would have worked or not and then used the line that they are implanted memories to save there arse.

I also do not believe Origin fits in the Ultimate line, I believe it is the mainstream line (New X-Men, Uncanny, etc.). Ultimate is like the retelling of all the favorites from the beginning.
Rumor is Origin 2 is in the works and that all things will be answered. I am a bit pissed at Marvel for leaving things high and dry just because this series sold so well. This is also why I think Dark Knight Strikes Back will not end with issue 3.

i thought the story as a whole was kinda lame...so logan has always dug red-heads, and he's really super old...big deal. why was this story line just not incorporated to the ongoing series.
a little more clarification would have been nice, not much of anything was resolved, nor was anything interesting revealed. if marvel decides to take the dog character and now turn him into a re-occurring villian, i think that'll be lame...whatever
that's just my opinion...i could be wrong
