Another photo I never posted! Gahhh! Oh. Right. The Milk Wars. That was a WEIRD crossover I still don’t understand XD. Ah! Sideways, that’s that character from the New Age of Heroes that I mentioned liking before since he interacts with a DC Cosmic being. Also because his powers are similar to America Chavez’s multiversal traversing powers. Oh right and Falcon was dealing with freaking Blackheart of all characters! I remember a splash page from that run showing Mephisto and other evil characters talking about their plans amongst each other and Blackheart not getting a seat at the table. It was a cool scene. Oh and there’s the X-Men Red A Cover that I didn’t get the previous week in the third row. Oh wow! I totally forgot that Logan was dead for a long while at this time, hence Marvel being able to have Old Man Logan hanging around for a while and Laura taking the mantle of Wolverine. On the cover of the No Surrender issue in this photo (and other random comics) they’d have that Wolverine symbol and it meant we got a little end-credit scene of sorts of Logan somewhere doing something since he had somehow returned from how he died in The Death of Wolverine event some time before Secret Wars. So that was always fun to see on an issue. Ah yes and this was the day we got our first Thrawn comic as a title which was based off of the recent Thrawn novel. It was wonderful being able to see that story play out.
