Weekly Update 6/2/19
🕑 Added 2019-06-03 01:31:46 +0000 UTCHey, we all made it! The 1960's is over! Pat yourself on the back for being loyal Marvel fans and toughing out some stormy weather through these last eight years. And yes, while a lot of this early stuff is rough to navigate at times, there have also been a lot of bright spots. It seems pretty unanimous that Spider-Man and Fantastic Four are the series to beat in the 60's, but I think we all found our own hidden gems that spoke to us, I know for me, Thor née Journey Into Mystery was my personal exciting discovery.
If you have any personal faves, or off-the-path discoveries, make sure to let us know by this Wednesday the 5th (we said the 4th in the show, but it's actually the 5th) for our big special decade ending episode! We're looking for short letters telling us about your favorite stories of the decade, thoughts about the future of Marvel, or about your experience with the club!
And congrats to Tyler for winning a copy of Fantastic Four #1 Facsimile Edition! Thanks to all those who spread the word about the show, we are really grateful for your help.
