Will we really learn who’s under those masks? I don’t remember. I bought this issue, even though most months I was only buying Adjectiveless at this point, just to see who those…
ASM/Devil Dinosaur Annual ’98
Peep that wild Michael Golden cover. His stuff sure does evolve over the years. Just in for a weird time this post. Moonboy and Devil Dinosaur are among Jack Kirby’s last creations…
