Despite the way some posts have gone on this blog over the years, I don’t want to be a hater. I try to find the good in things. But how do people…

TAC V2 03
The lighting on this cover is incomprehensible. This issue opens with what I can only describe as a post-Bendis page: I mean, it really is. This page had me thinking Garrett must…
TAC V2 02
That’s it, keep those covers good and generic. We accidentally let last issue’s cover sell the fact that the very popular Venom was in the issue, that was a mistake! What do…
