Sal Buscema, perhaps more than most, is a guy with a lot of go-tos in his art. Signature poses and layouts. But this cover is not one of them, and it seems…

TAC 178
We’ve gone this whole block without seeing any Spectacular, and that’s because ol’ JM DeMatteis has a 6-part story kicking off this issue. Can’t say I’ve been looking forward to it, and…
Soul of the Hunter
Surprise. It’s a sequel to Kraven’s Last Hunt. Fashionably late, this is. And, actually, it was published almost a year in the future, but it turns out it goes here. I wonder…

SM 13

Deadly Foes 4
Looks like it’s everybody vs. everybody in the big finale. This issue adds a 3rd inker who is only credited as “Candelario” and sees Paty Cockrum return on colors. Everyone’s fighting like…
