Which one will fall? I mean, we can assume it’s The Grizzly, but let’s find out. We pick up where we left off, as The Grizzly carries Peter Parker (in a bear…
ASM 139
We are back to 1974. Back to Gerry Conway, Ross Andru, Frank Giacoia & Dave Hunt, back to the ongoing mystery of The Jackal, and just in time to meet… The Grizzly….
End of Block 29
Primo primo Spidey! This one directly mirrors the one from block 27. Kinda fun to do. I think there’s gonna be one for each decade by the end with the same general…
