Just finished a couple of books that wrapped up major storylines. Coincidentally, both feature wraparound covers as well. Sabre is an obscure and underrated 80s title. I don’t think Billy Graham was the best suited artist for the book, but McGregor’s characters have depth and his storyline is interesting and well thought out. The Micronauts special edition wraps up the original 12 issue story arc by Mantlo and Golden. This is something all comic book lovers should read! The first dozen and last dozen issues of Micronauts are absolutely classic. There was something of a drop off in the middle of the run, which Mantlo addresses in his text piece in this book. Apparently, since the Micronauts were based on toys, the toy company had some input into the project. They felt that the size issue was a key element to the product and wanted it played up in the comics. This meant finding reason after contrived reason to bring the Micronauts back to earth, where everything is much bigger than they are, instead of the more serious SF/ space opera direction that Mantlo wanted to take it. It wasn’t until after the toy line folded that he was able to return to his original vision and take the series in the direction he wanted it to go.  |

 This is the first George Perez drawn comic that I have read since his recent passing and proof that his work will endure forever. I originally bought this comic on New Year’s Eve of 1983/ 1984. It seems like such a long time ago in some ways, not so long ago in others. This was really a great period for Perez and the Titans. The 1984 baxter book was just about to explode onto the scene, giving us two Titans books each month. It was probably the greatest single year in Titans history, with both the Terra/ Terminator/ Nightwing epic and the return of Trigon saga/ baxter series debut happening simultaneously! Certainly a high water mark for the medium and just one of many reasons why George Perez will never be forgotten. |

| @beastboy1980 Titans was a pretty important book for DC. As with many other readers, it was probably the first DC that made my “never miss an issue” list. In the early ‘80s, I was mainly a Marvel zombie who occasionally bought a Batman, Flash or JLA here or there. Titans and All-Star Squadron broke that pattern and led to me buying more DCs. | ||

| This has been at the bottom of my weekly pile for a little while. It was a "save the best for last' thought for me. The Cates Hulk run is frigging goofy but it's written well so I just go with it. It appears as if I'll get 3 issues or so of Planet Hulk brutality with undertones of Cates? I could be wrong but I haven't picked up Thor 25 yet so no spoilers please.  |

Read this one today. Aztec Ace is an interesting book about a time traveler from the future who works to foil the schemes of a secret society bent on unraveling the time stream (and history as we know it). It’s an entertaining read with lots of great period stuff, historical figures, etc., but I will warn you ahead of time that it is an extremely wordy and somewhat complicated read. Set aside some distraction free time when you can sit down and slowly absorb this book and it will be a rewarding experience. |

This is an amazing comic! Great story by Mike W. Barr with awesome artwork by Golden and DeCarlo. Batman faces his criminal mirror image. If you have never read this, I highly recommend seeking out a copy. It was originally intended to be the 1983 Batman Annual, but was so late getting completed that it was published in 1984 as Batman Special #1. |
