Oh, but Wolverine: Sexyback would be SO good…
Here’s a question: when Wolverine is in FOUR of his own Monthly books in May, as well as Uncanny and New Avengers… are we STILL going to get 8 Wolvie specials a month? Really?
And are comics really today? Not tomorrow? Hmmm…
Man, haven’t you heard, there is going to be a Wolverine/Archie/Punisher/Power Pack/Mephisto/Richie Rich mini soon!
Comics really did come out Wednesday. I don’t know if I can explain the metrics of why, exactly.
And the Punisher/Archie one-shot was surprisingly good.
I always thought the two weeks of Christmas and New Years were always a Thursday comics day. Sterl said that because last week they were on Friday, it fixed itself.
I think that’s a pretty weak answer.
But I believed it, and sure enough, comics were there yesterday.
And yes, the Archie/Punisher was surprisingly good. It actually, almost, made sense. Much more than 85% of the other crossovers back then. Anyone try to explain the 8 Wildcats/X-Men through the history ones? Or how about the Star Trek/X-Men (though I loved those…)
The Neil Adams DC Universe Hardcover looks to be the really good.
