The Punisher. Wolverine. Elektra. As the sequel to the classic Marvel series continues, Phil Sheldon watches the Marvel Universe get darker, more dangerous...at the same time as he faces devastating personal news. Can he make the public see the marvels for the heroes they are to him? Or is it a lost cause? Phil and Ben Urich run a desperate race through Manhattan to cover the news -- but for Phil, it may be the last time... Rated A …$3.99
Finally, it's interesting to see Roger Stern credited as a co-writer for this issue. I wonder whether he was brought in to assist Busiek in his use of this past continuity, or simply to help him to capture the flavour of the 1970s era of Marvel comics more convincingly. Either way, it's a team-up that produces enjoyable results, telling a compelling story about Phil Sheldon that also functions as a meditation on the changing nature of Marvel Comics after the end of the Silver Age.
