It’s The Red Skull! Surprise! Did you see him coming? I certainly did not as a kid. Seems rather left field, but I’ve not read it in many years, let’s see. McFarlane’s…

ASM 324
Now that’s a more reasonable depiction of Sabretooth. Don’t let that cover deceive you, though, the ramped up summer schedule was too much, and this issue features the fill-in art team of…
ASM 323
It’s like the old cartoon theme song said: “When Captain America throws his mighty shield/All those who chose to assassinate Symkaria’s Prime Minister must yield!” There are 3 issues of ASM cover…
