IronMan23

All right folks, we’re now in a post-graduate world for me. So let’s see how much that edjumacation I got really pays off. Let’s do this! Iron Man #23 from 1970 All right, I’ll admit it, I laughed at how this issue ended up. A random lady that I’m completely unfamiliar with tries to get Tony Stark to help her. She’s part of some seedy organization and they’re out to kill her, so they hired a mercenary named… wait for it… The Mercenary to take care of her.

fables110

Fables #110 — Writer: Bill Willingham;  Pencils: Mark Buckingham; Inks: Steve Leialoha and Shawn McManus This is just a normal issue of this book, by the normal creators — but it’s a good example of its charms: the monkey Bufkin and his allies are in the Land of Oz, fermenting revolution against the evil emperor Roquat, while in the land of the now-dead North Wind Bigby, Snow White and their children are facing down the other winds, and trying to decide which of the kids will take over as the new replacement avatar; meanwhile, in Mr. Dark’s old palace, the … Continue reading

I just want to put out a useless fact for you guys right now. With this post, if you look directly to your left on the website, I now have one more post than Marsha! That means I’m coming for you next Alan… And in 40 years I’ll catch up with Phil. Let’s do this! House of Mystery 144 from 1964 I’ve reviewed House of Mystery four times already, but it’s never had a superhero story on the cover… until now!
