In time for the holiday weekend!

A few thoughts…
Standard cover looks even better up close. Love that green lightsaber. Don’t be disappointed if you can’t get the DM cover.

CGN took this book coast to coast in time for a release date arrival.

I pre-ordered, but after FOC, as I didn’t even know what FOC was until a month ago.

I have only read a little bit, but really looking forward to getting into it.

Picked up The Amazing Spider-Man Classic Newspaper Strips 1977 volume. It is amazing. Granted, I remember reading these comics as a kid every Sunday, but I enjoy the fast paced storytelling here. A few other notes…

⁠Sunday comics are in color. They look really good although the inking can get a little thick at times.
2. ⁠Binding is glued and sewn. Lays really nice.
3. ⁠John Romita is still at the top of his game here. Obviously the format limits creative storytelling, but it is still gorgeous JR, as evidenced by the Mary Jane rendition above.
4. ⁠Dr. Doom has the first arc. I know, he is an FF enemy, but I always think of him as a Spidey villain.

Overall, highly recommended. Even if you never read these as a kid, you can enjoy the JR art and the fast paced storytelling.
