Toronto Comic Con next weekend!


Next weekend at the Toronto Comic Con (March 10-11th), I'll be hosting two panels, A Spotlight on George Perez and A Spotlight on Mark Bagley.

Let me know if you have any questions for either George or Mark and I'll do my best to ask them.

1984 - September's ads


I remember loving this flick. It had all those great (and over the top) story elements. Catherine Mary Stewart as Maggie! And of course Robert Preston as a great mentor.


One day I'll get around to doing a post a few posts on Power Pack. Similarly for Peter Parker Spectacular Spider-Man, especially Peter David's Death of Jean DeWolffe!


I was never into console games back in the 80s, but I remember spending a lot of quarters on the Arcade game!

1986 - Peter Parker Spectacular Spider-Man #132

From Bob McLeod's Facebook page:

1986 Peter Parker Spectacular Spider-Man #132 part 6 page 12 Mike Zeck breakdown pencils, Script by J.M. DeMatteis, lettering by Rick Parker.
By the final issue in the Kraven series, I had inked a lot of dark sewers, and a lot of hairy Vermins. It's funny to me that as bare as Mike's pencils were, he knew exactly what I was going to do with them.


I love the textures that McLeod added to the walls of the sewers. Zeck's pencils indeed seemed very bare, more like breakdowns.
