@joshbowman9481 2 жыл бұрын

For some reason I react emotionally when sal says a certain comic book issue didn’t do well, because the formula works for a good book or a bad book, and any in between. I started watching back issues with the kingdom come episode, one of the best comics of all time beyond the shadow of a doubt. The next book i saw them cover? VENOM RETURNS. Trust me, the formula works.
