Superman Treasury #1 and Doom Is Riding A Dinosaur 🦖
Hey everyone!I'm Matheus from the Beyond the Panels blog (yes, the one with enough Fantastic Four takes to last a whole lifetime).So here's the deal: Walt caught wind of how much I spend on single issues every month (don’t ask), and decided to channel that into something useful.... more »
FOC Alert: Godzilla vs Star Trek 😱
Okay, the title of this email might be a bit over the top. But it’s Friday, and after a long week, every last brain cell could use a good jolt to kick things into gear (mine definitely can!).

Jeff Lemire is once again masterful in the leisurely way he builds a world for us.Phantom Road #11 brings us something more tangible with the new The Horrormen storyline.

Top single issues recommendations - September 2024
Simone's Top 44 - The Ultimates #3: I'm still not impressed with the Ultimates at the moment, but this issue introduced one of my favorite characters into this Ultimate universe: She-Hulk (don't worry, no spoilers, she's on the cover!). I love how they reinvented her, and after reading the last... more »
Poison Ivy #25 by G. Willow Wilson - Review
For the silver anniversary of my favorite series (yes, I’m just going to commit to that), we were served a green buffet with Poison Ivy #25, which was unexpectedly nutritious.What initially looked like a nice anthology, like a good collection of various short stories from different creative... more »
