The Latest From OtWP

Fantastic Four #245 cover

Review: Fantastic Four #245

Fantastic Four #244 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Fantastic Four #244

Galactus is brought back from the brink of death by the Fantastic Four – but does that mean he’ll spare Earth? John Byrne’s first three-part FF epic ends on a subtle-but-strong note.

READ

Fantastic Four #243 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Fantastic Four #243

Fantastic Four #242 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Fantastic Four #242

Amazing Spider-Man #144 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Amazing Spider-Man #144

Spider-Man saves J. Jonah Jameson – with an unlikely assist from a Parisian hardware store – but the real surprise awaits back home. This story by a young Gerry Conway isn’t his best work, but the art from Ross Andru and company is solid.

READ

Weird War Tales #51 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Weird War Tales #51

This trio of Weird War offerings is highlighted by a Kamandi “Tales of the Great Disaster” outcast featuring art from the inimitable team of Marshall Rogers and Terry Austin.

Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

The Close Shaves of Pauline Peril #1

Spoiled-rich-girl-turned-newspaper-reporter Pauline Peril flies off to the jungle to interview Tartar, a woman-hating prince of chimps. The story is a subpar sign of the times but this comic features some fun, inspired cartooning from Jack Manning.

Marvel Spotlight #15 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Marvel Spotlight #15

Satan confronts his son in a dream, then battles Daimon in real life as the demon Baphomet. This issue is a definite product of the mid-1970s, from the team of Steve Gerber and Jim Mooney.

Batman #229 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Batman #229

Solo adventures from both Batman (written by Robert Kanigher) and Robin (written by Mike Friedrich) tap into the zeitgeist of the time. Journeymen Irv Novick and Frank Giacoia provide solid-but-unspectacular support on art.

READ

Rom #27 cover
Bronze Age Minute/Comic Books

Review: Rom #27

To spare Galador, Rom offers up the Dark Nebula – but does even Galactus have the stomach for Wraithworld? An emotionally complex handling of the devourer of worlds from Bill Mantlo, with journeyman art from Sal Buscema and Joe Sinnott.
