This week, Vince and I tackle a classic major event in Marvel’s chronology, as well as a just finished mini-series from Archaia which impressed the hell out of us. The Evolutionary War was a major event in the summer of ’88, crossing over into many of Marvel’s annuals. A lot of important things happened during this event, and both Vince and I suggest you check it out at some point, if for no other reason than to learn a little more about Marvel’s history.

As for Mouseguard: The Black Axe, we cannot recommend this enough. What an amazing series, full of astounding art and incredible writing… both from the same creator. Check it out.

There’s still one week left for our Uncanny Skullkickers giveaway. Email roger (at) comicbookinformer (dot) com if you’d like to toss your name in the hat.
