  3. yeah a belter!

    I love the gangster 'couple's climax

    ecstatic! violent! sexual! bowel spilling!

    this and Kerry Callans dry/sly hollow 'SexintheCity' take really make it worth the visit.

    Also some of the orig covers need a mention.

    Jack Cole is pretty shit hot and that Planet cover by Joe Doolin is/was beautiful. Never heard of him before so the links in the comments to a little 'net gold was special.

    As for Marvels original Pope, I think I've said all I want to say, maybe it was a wacky read in relation to all the guff Marvel produced at the time. But I bet if read now it would be the dullest stupidest piece shit they did that year.

    I remember their 'hunchback of Notre Dame' 'literature classic' adaption. Two weeks pocket money blown on that tedious waste of paper and ink.

  4. I have a hard time getting over how wrong the perspective is on the hand/gun. If the artist couldn't alter the perspective of the gun to match it being held in a different hand and angle he probably just should have redrawn it in the same perspective as the original.
