It’s a big month as Marvel has finally run out of gatefold covers. They gave up on the recap pages months prior, sadly, just running 2 ads on the inside cover instead…

PPSM 4
Sure are a lot of guest stars in these early issues of the relaunch. Marrow, of all people. Returning the favor for her team-up with Spidey in Uncanny X-Men 346, presumably. So…
ASM V2 4
Did this cover get zoomed in on or something? Feels weird. Trapster being cut in half is what really gets me, it just doesn’t feel intentional. The opening splash and a following…

Chapter One 12
Guaranteed not to be fabulous! I have reached the end of my torment. Only one more issue to freedom. And look, Sandman’s finally shown up. Well, we begin with JJJ delighted by…
