Review: Marvel Premiere #30                     

The Liberty Legion and the Nazi-controlled Invaders come to blows before a packed house at Yankee Stadium. Roy Thomas’ four-part, Invaders/Liberty Legion story ends on a bit of an off note, while Don Heck and Vince Colletta provide the art. [More]

Review: The Invaders #6                       

The Invaders, still under the Red Skull’s control, find themselves in battle against Bucky’s newly formed Liberty Legion. Roy Thomas’ fun story is well served by the under-appreciated Frank Robbins, who draws a particularly wicked Red Skull. [More]

Review: Marvel Premiere #29                     

With the other Invaders under the Red Skull’s thrall, Bucky gathers a new team of heroes for a rescue attempt. Roy Thomas pulls together another winner from Marvel’s Timely past, this time aided by the dated-but-appropriate pencils of Don Heck. [More]

Review: The Invaders #5                       

The Invaders (sans Bucky) fight on the Nazi side as our heroes come under the thrall of the Red Skull. Roy Thomas’ story is decent, but the lack of Frank Robbins art makes this a sub-par Invaders outing. [More]

Review: Devil Dinosaur #1                   

Moon-Boy remembers the fateful night that first brought him and Devil Dinosaur together as brothers. Jack Kirby’s last new series for Marvel isn’t as bad as its reputation, but it’s not that great, either. [More]

Review: Machine Man #1

Review: Black Panther #1                     

Black Panther teams with Mr. Little to track down a powerful, golden artifact known as King Solomon’s Frog. A frenzied, madcap adventure from the team of Jack Kirby and Mike Royer. [More]

Review: Captain America #193                

Captain America and the Falcon are drafted by the government to stop a plot to destroy the United States during the bicentennial. Jack “The King” Kirby’s return to one of his most famous creations proves to be a lot of fun. [More]
