Turns out, 204 was the last issue of Marv Wolfman’s run. He bounced mid-story, apparently some kinda dispute with Marvel. He headed back over to DC to create the New Teen Titans,…
ASM 204
This month, Pollard does breakdowns for Pablo Marcos to finish. It’s all action on page one as a van drives by our swinging star having a shootout with the cops! Black Cat…
FF 218
It’s the thrilling(?) conclusion to TAC 42. Someone’s written “3-4” on the front in pencil. Behind that cover by Al Milgrom and the legendary FF inker Joe Sinnott, we have Bill Mantlo…
