I wanna say the first shiny foil cover I can remember is Jim Lee’s WildCATs (Covert! Action! Teams!) #2, and it looked a lot like this.Silvery with the rainbow hologram effect. That…

And we’re back. Castle’s still falling, heroes are recapping, it’s all happening. Archangel, being all tough and mean since he got transformed by Apocalypse, thinks they should just leave, but Cyclops won’t…
TAC 198
It is utterly insane to me that this is a 3-issue story. Professor. Power. Is meant to keep Spider-Man and the X-Men at bay for a 3-issue story! Bonkers. Bananas. Other such…

WEB 098
The two pierce tags are in agreement! Alex Saviuk is still primary this month, inked by Don Hudson, tho that Derek Yaniger does the cover and an interlude. Wonder what this is…
