Satan sends Corrupta to Greenwich Village in a sneaky effort to capture his sister Devilina’s soul. Atlas (Seaboard) apes Warren’s B&W-magazine style with this C-list collection stories from the likes of Ric Estrada, John Albano, Frank Thorne and others.
READA hodgepodge of reprints repackaged to look like a horror comic, this issue is largely a bland affair. While most of the work is uncredited, the lead story – featuring the debut of Tragg – offers stylish art by Jesse Santos.
READThis debut issue of Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch features some morally mixed-up tales. But the real appeal comes from the back-up text feature’s illustrations, drawn by a young John Byrne.
READA high-school student’s death makes the citizens of Citrusville crazier than usual – and draws Man-Thing to town! The lead story hasn’t aged well, but strong art on the backup features – including a Howard the Duck tale drawn by Frank Brunner – help make this issue a winner.
READA group of intelligent apes who worship the memory of Superman wonder if Ben Boxer is the “Mighty One” returned. A solid meditation on myth by Jack “King” Kirby – a creator who knows a little something about the topic!
READThe High Overlord is called before a forum of Martian masters to review an earlier debacle against the rebel Killraven. A lovely new framing sequence from artist P. Craig Russell almost makes up for this slapdash repackaging of a contemporary reprint. Almost.
READThe hunt for the Boar takes E-Man to the center of the Earth – and charges Nova into a super-powered future! Nova levels up in this full-length adventure from the creative team of Nicola Cuti and Joe Staton.
READAstride his savage, snow-white unicorn, Ironjaw returns to his homeland of Amun-Rak – where betrayal and adventure await! While less misogynistic than previous outings, this issue from Michael Fleisher and Pablo Marcos still doesn’t offer much positive.
READWhen an eccentric financier goes missing, the Scorpion gets pulled into a case plagued by voodoo and zombies. Another fun pulp adventure from writer/artist Howard Chaykin (and a few famous friends).
