FNSM 20
I think I’ve kinda worked out that FNSM might take Place before SSM in the mess that is Back In Black. I read 3 issues of SSM after the first 3 FNSMs,…
FNSM 19
This Spidey/Sandman team-up has been pretty enjoyable. Hard to resist an Odd Couple. We being with a flashback to Peter’s principal trapped in that closet at the end of the Mysterio story….
