Superman '78: The Metal Curtain #1
Creative Team: Robert Venditti (W) Gavin Guidry (A)
Synopsis: When the planet Krypton exploded, its last son
was rocketed across the cosmos and came to settle in a
small town in Kansas. But what else came with him, and
what if a piece of his home landed somewhere we never
knew about? As Superman has become a symbol of
strength and pride for America, the Soviet Union looks
to crush that image with a creation of their own, built by
their own might and forged by their own power!
Score: 9.2 (Near Mint Minus-- I dislike the fact most of
DC's good stories are not canon. Not a lot of action but
a decent story to hold your attention especially if you're
a fan of the Christopher Reeves Superman. The artist
managed to get everyone's look right except Superman.
He looks nothing like Christopher Reeves but he definitely
had Reeve's Clark Kent posture. He kinda looks more like
a young Brandon Roth now that I think about it. Lastly, is this an Elseworld of the 1978 movie because the comic series before this introduced Metallo even though this one is slightly different. 😏)

The Punisher v14 #1
Creative Team: David Pepose (W) Dave Wachter (A)
Synopsis: In this action-packed new PUNISHER saga,
Frank Castle has disappeared, but evil will always need
to be punished. With all-new threats rising to claim
innocent victims, criminals will need to beware of a
dangerous vigilante hunting them from the shadows.
Enter a new Punisher: retired S.H.I.E.L.D. black ops
agent Joe Garrison. But what brings him back into
action? What put Joe Garrison on his path of vengeance?
And when the smoke clears, will he even make it out alive?
Score: 9.2 (Near Mint Minus-- Story isn't bad & art is pretty
good. Even though he's not trying to be "The Punisher"
I personally don't want to waste my time or money on a
series that's not going to mean anything. Frank Castle will
be back sometime next year in a new Punisher series. FYI
1st appearance of Joe Garrison aka Punisher & Triple A.)
DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!
Thanos v4 #1
Creative Team: Christopher Cantwell (W) Luca Pizzari (A)
Synopsis: THANOS VS. THE ILLUMINATI!
The Mad Titan descends upon Earth to retrieve something
he has lost. And the Illuminati must band together to stop
him because they're the ones who hid it from him!
Score: NG (No Grade-- I don't even know what happened.
This comic LITERALLY put me to sleep and I tried to read this twice. I'm over Thanos anyway. FYI 1st appearance of
Christine Collins & Demetrius. Also, the current Illuminati
members are Iron Man, White Queen, Mr. Fantastic,
Dr. Strange & Blue Marvel.)
