Lyle Tucker, Van Reid, and myself (Bruce Rosenberger) take a good deep look at Journey Into Mystery issues 95 - 100. Within these issues there are story elements that are put into place that will have ramifications on the future of the Thor stories. We also get to see some of the best work that Jack Kirby has done on the title (or maybe any title!) to date. The title still has a long way to go, but we think you'll agree with us that it's finally headed in the correct, if tenuous, direction. We want to thank all those that have written to give us support and let us know that they think we're doing a good job. If you too would like to comment you can contact us at one of these places: Right here at the bottom of the blog under comments KomicsKast Forum Or email me at: komicskast@gmail.com (and I'll pass it along to Lyle and Van) We mentioned our friend Randy Sargent in the show and you can visit Sarge's Coloring Book by clicking the link.
