Friday Fun DASHERS Conclusion


...all of whom possess super-powers which they utilize in their jobs, the Dashers are unaware of a menace not only against them but all humanity, named Quantyl, whose influence is spreading!
But, perhaps, the Dashers have finally realized that, "With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility!"
(Where have I heard that before???)


Does this mean we could see some of the Dashers as candidates for Avengers Academy?
Not very likely, since this 2022 one-shot comic establishes that there are potentially hundreds, if not thousands of them exist in whatever section of the Marvel Mutiverse this is set in!

Friday Fun DASHERS Part 1

Considering the problems DoorDash is having with the Department of Labor...

...perhaps Marvel's helping to recruit gig workers for them might, in retrospect, not seem to be the best possible partnership!












What is Quantl's insidious plan?
And how are The Dashers involved?
Be Here Next Friday to Find Out!!!
Even leaving out the fact that every single one of these "Dashers" is ignoring the "Prime Directive" of the Marvel Multiverse...
...and using their powers only for personal gain, isn't it weird that only they have superpowers?
Written by Paul Allor, laid out by Steve Kurth, and illustrated by Andrea Olimpieri & Valerio Befani, this promotional one-shot was handed out at NYCC '22, and possibly other conventions.
Trivia:
There are no copies of the comic available on Amazon, but there is one on eBay...marked down to $29.99 from $119.99!
The book isn't listed in the Grand Comics Database!

Monday Madness SLOW DEATH "Antarctica!"

The first Earth Day was in 1970...as was the first issue of this environmentally-themed comic!

In 2020, this 50th Anniversary final issue came out featuring a mix of new and classic tales!
This is the cover-featured new story about...
Writer/artist William Stout has worked on movie/tv storyboards and production design, illustrated comic books, album covers, and movie posters.
In 1989, Stout traveled to Antarctica and Patagonia.
His experiences there eventually resulted in a one-man show Dinosaurs, Penguins and Whales — The Wildlife of Antarctica.
In 1991 Stout received a grant from the National Science Foundation to participate in their Antarctic Artists and Writers Program.
For three months during the 1992-1993 austral summer, Stout was based at McMurdo Station and Palmer Station.
He made several dives beneath the ice, climbed the active volcano Mount Erebus, camped in the dry valleys, and produced over one hundred painted studies as he carefully observed Antarctica's wildlife.
Talk about "practice what you preach"!
