So…Onslaught Reborn was actually worth my money?

Hard to believe that Onslaught Reborn, by Rob Liefeld and Jeph Loeb, which was a pretty abybsmal series, actually has something to do with the excellent Captain America ongoing series by Ed Brubaker, but it’s true!

X-Men Forever!

Remember how psyched you were when X-Men #1 by Chris Claremont and Jim Lee came out back in 1991 (sh*t I’m old…that was EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO!!!!), and the art and story were so fantastic?  I loved that series until Jim Lee left and, oddly, until recently, I didn’t even know that Chris Claremont left the […]
