How could it not, when every hero and heroine knows exactly what is aiming to break into the world they’ve sworn to protect? New (and significantly less altruistic) gods keep appearing, and it seems like only Wonder Woman and her newly found brother, Jason, stand a chance at taking them d ..read more

Spider-Man/Deadpool Vol. 7: My Two Dads is no exception to that rule. Old Man Deadpool and Old Man Spidey have come back together for an adventure like no other. Mainly, that means that there’s going to be a lot of chaos, and more jokes than ever ..read more
