They said we’re going to ASM 18 originally. This struck me as odd the whole time, considering that’s the middle of the 3-parter where Spider-Man quits because Aunt May is sick and…

Chapter One 9
Feels to me like Byrne’s lightly referencing John Romita, Jr.’s favorite DD running pose here. Jr. really made DD his own during his glorious run with Ann Nocenti. I, personally, always think…
Chapter One 8
Not a great cover! GG and Spidey look weird. Every issue this series is adapting (Well, every ASM) is plenty to fill one book, but 14 in particular feels like it does…

TAC Annual 14
I was kind of annoyed that this block and this whole era was going to end on something as crappy as SMU 5. But then I opened this to read it, having…
