Before we rejoin regular programming, this brief diversion, because I’m not sure where else to put it. This first issue ran alongside ASM 516, TAC 23, MKSM 10, New Avengers 3 and…

ASM V2 Annual 1999
This is the book that will be about Betty investigating Senator Ward? I guess we’ll see. One I’ve never read before. You see the word “Buscema” on the cover of a Spider-Man…
ASM V2 4
Did this cover get zoomed in on or something? Feels weird. Trapster being cut in half is what really gets me, it just doesn’t feel intentional. The opening splash and a following…

TAC 042
The great Mike Zeck joins Bill Mantlo writing, Jim Mooney on inks and Janice Cohen on colors for this one. Mike Zeck before he was a big name, I think, in this…
