Doctor Strange has been murdered, and in his absence the Earth is threatened by extradimensional demons and sorcerers, however, the Sorcerer Supreme of Earth-616 has prepared for this eventuality!

It's pretty good, if fairly standard, magical superheroing. Low pick 3.5 🪄

The first twelve issues were a slow burn; in issue 13 the bomb goes off. This arc is the epitome of Spider-Man storytelling. I love what Hickman is doing.

After the success of StarWars and the associated toys and a Marvel licensed comic, Editor Jim Shooter was looking for the next big toy/comic tie-in. A deal was struck with Parker Brothers and this Omnibus collects the result. It starts off childish, as you might expect, but as the toy was flopping, the comic had its own life & actually gets interesting. Nothing new to see here, but we get an entertaining, paranoid, “Body Snatchers” type thriller.

The_Book_Ninja If you have a spare 5 minutes, the story of the failure of the toy is quite an entertaining one https://www.whenitwascool.com/rom-the-story-of-rom-the-spaceknight 5d

X-Men Epic Collection: Second Genesis | Bill Mantlo, Len Wein, Chris Claremont

X-men Epic collection Wounded Wolf is a pretty solid Claremont collection of the x-men and New Mutants doing what they do. Loki has a crush on storm. Wolverine is rescued by another little superpowered girl. TW for some pretty glaring fat-phobia though. Between the mojoverse, murder world, and Asgard the X-men don‘t do tons of defending a world that hates and fears them, but they do try on lots of outfits.

A recovering, low-level low life is at the wrong place at the wrong time, and is pulled into a web of trouble. An extra layer of story and art on display as the main character is also writes a comic strip, and his creation enters the world through his mind.

Haunted Mansion | Joshua Williamson

Visiting the Haunted Mansion at Disney World as a 9-year-old is one of my favorite memories. So I enjoyed this graphic novel for the nostalgia. Is this a riveting story? Well, have any of the adaptations been that great? The answer is yes, Muppets Haunted Mansion (also the movie with Eddie Murphy was pretty good). My favorite part of this was the art, especially the pieces between chapters. So fans, it‘s worth it, just don‘t expect too much

JoeMo I‘ll just add it‘s worth it if you can borrow this through your library in its physical form or via an app like Hoopla. I wouldn‘t spend $ on it though. #hauntedshelf #trappedinaspookyhouse #bookspinbingo 3w

Sending Jean/Phoenix to space is a concept so good it's crazy it hasn't been done. Putting her on a collision course with Thanos also makes sense. Unfortunately, much of the execution in terms of plot mechanics isn't very strong. Perrikus is not only a silly character but isn't even developed as a villain. The stuff with Corsair was good.
