TAC 014
Bacon Man is still in the building. I don’t even wanna dignify the title with an acknowledgement. A “J. Tartas” pitches in with the usual guys on line art, and Irene Vartanoff…
TAC 013
I mean, where to start. As if the villains from last issue weren’t dopey enough, we get this. Love the hook “I’m invulnerable from the back.” Well, you have 3 other sides,…

Hey, it’s me, and tonight I am apparently reading a comic where Black Panther machine guns Spider-Man with a “broken glass” gun from a helicopter. I feel like this is a pitch…
