Now this seems like it could be a good idea. Giving the new crime boss about to appear in ASM a little more lead time so he doesn’t just crop up out…
ASM Annual 27
This comic, and all Marvel (And DC!) annuals in 1993 came in a polybag with a trading card inside. The very bags Tom DeFalco implored you to open last post. There are…
