I think the cover alone is plenty of explanation as to why I didn’t buy this one. Not only is it not even about Peter Parker or his family, but it’s gonna…

For some reason, we begin here a thing where someone’s decided big Osborn issues have to have Romita covers even if it’s not his book. I mean, I’m not complaining, but it’s…

Back for more with Kraven, or is it Kraven? Maybe they’ll get around to turning over their cards, I don’t actually remember when they do. But peep the completely incorrect credits on…

Uncanny X-Men 191
This cover doesn’t really prepare the casual reader for the craziness inside. It’s been exactly 6 years since MTU 79 was published as X-Men 191 hits newsstands. Calling back that far is…
