Hey, look, we haven’t seen ASM in a bit. Everybody’s on break this month. Stern plots, but Bill Mantlo scripts. Bob Hall does breakdowns and Frank Giacoia finishes. We open on Wilbur…
MTU 125
A double feature! Mike Esposito does finishes over Kerry Gamill’s breakdowns this month. Tigra’s back and still completely disinterested in the concept of clothes. She’s leaping around the city, thinking she’s late…
Marvel Fanfare 6

TAC 071
…I thee wed? I’m not sure where that copy is going. Oh, the splash says “With this gun… I thee kill!” Hilarious. Not content to just draw ASM, here’s JRJR & Frank…
