A non-DC request from Joe Grunenwald! I’m fairly certain he doesn’t remember asking for this! I don’t know a thing about Sleepwalker, I think I read maybe three issues of his book in the early 90s, probably because Wolverine, Spider-Man, Ghost Rider or The Punisher guest-starred.

282 – Flatman
Back in the early 90s, John Byrne did a run on West Coast Avengers (Avengers West Coast?) that I absolutely loved, and part of his run was the introduction of The Great Lakes Avengers, a ridiculous team of Midwestern Superheroes who actually turned out to be pretty competent and powerful. Hawkeye and Mockingbird both left …
281 – Ultimate Nick Fury
At it’s core, I have no problems with Ultimate Nick Fury. But I do have a problem with the fact that he simply exists only to get the attention of Samuel L. Jackson. And hey, it worked! Unfortunately, this is so meta and so twisted in on itself, that there’s now no room for Ultimate …

Ok, PANIC!: Do-Over

277 – Rusty Venture
I’ve been watching Season 4 of The Venture Bros.. Goddammit I love that show. I love that show more than I’ve ever loved my any of ex-girlfriends. I love it more than I’ll ever love any future girlfriends. If I could start a religion about The Venture Bros., I would.
276 – Captain Marvel
The other Captain Marvel, aka Monica Rambeau, whom I know better as the team leader from NextWave, quite possibly one of the best comics Marvel has produced in 10 years. So of course it got cancelled.
275 – Vindicator
Cap’n Cananada, eh.
