32 PGS./Parental Advisory …$3.99

Man I hate that I have to auto tradewait Marvel minis because of their BS pricing…oh well, it will probably be more enjoyable and coherent in trade form anyways.
But this series is sure to be awesome, Brendan McCarthy is no doubt a fitting successor to Steve Ditko.

I bet a $100 that there are going to be some illegal drug references and undertones in this mini series, which is why this mini has a PARENTAL ADVISORY” warning on the cover.

@Preston: Are trades usually less than $12?
