Journey Into Mystery: Manchester Gods Annotations

This is pleasing. The oft great Alternate Cover are annotating Manchester Gods. Glad to see someone do this, becuse all the gods know how much is crammed inside this particular arc. The first part is up now. Example quote…

Page 10, Panel 2: “He is a genius of little brain.” – Leah references A.A. Milne’s popular ursoid pictograph, Winnie-the-Pooh, famously “a bear of very little brain”. Pooh Bear was said to reside in Hundred Acre Wood, a fictional location based on Ashdown Forest in the southern English county of East Sussex. This continues the theme of forest folklore established for this arc. Also, he’s currently licensed to Disney, who own Marvel. Coincidence? Or the first signs of Disney’s creeping editorial intervention? You be the judge.
Read the rest here.
