Marvel's Cosmic Comics: Star Wars, John Carter, Rom, Micronauts, And Beyond!

It's Mark Harris, the Man from Atlantis, vs. mind controlling spores from outer space!

"...And Daredevil Makes Three" is a GREAT example...of a terrible team up. Take three heroes who have nothing to do with each other and then don't let them interact and this is what you get.

Using Star Wars as a guideline,  we’re exploring comic books based on licensed properties that Marvel Comics published from 1977 to 1986. It’s Godzilla vs. Bigfoot! (A really, really BIG Bigfoot…but don’t let the name “Yetrigar” fool you…he’s Bigfoot!)

The continuing adventures, well, continue in "Star Search"! What is the fate of Luke from his ill-fated mission? What became of Princess Leia's rescue mission? And will Han Solo and Chewie join the gang soon?

Ben takes a look at three comics that were not licensed but that were related to their licensed books: a comic capitalizing on Star Wars' success; a continuation of 2001's Mr. Machine story; and a return to prehistory in the vein of Kirby's early 2001 stories.

Inventory issue time! We get the backstory of John and Dejah's romance! And Ben gives a "good, bad, and ugly" breakdown!

Godzilla goes to Vegas! And Ben finds himself reading a comic book Twilight Zone featuring giant "force of nature" dino-lizard-monsters!

Real life stunt man Human Fly meets made up superhero White Tiger and minor super villain Copperhead. Also, he skateboards.

Bill Mantlo's adventures of the TV super swimmer Mark Harris continue as last issue's cliffhanger gets resolved. The results are surprising.

Roy Thomas brought Star Wars to Marvel, but this is the issue George Lucas removed Roy Thomas from Star Wars. Wrapping up the first "expanded universe" storyline of original Star Wars, this storyline is historic, but is it good?

Marv Wolfman wraps up his final chapter in the Air Pirates of Mars saga! It's the final showdown between John Carter and the Great One! Is it a satisfying conclusion?

Red Ronin has been a slow reveal, from the initial thoughts of a weapon that could take on Big G to seeing the plans to activating it but now, the big test: a battle between Red Ronin and Godzilla!

Human Fly has to FIGHT THE BEAR!!!

Who is Mr. Schubert? Well, if you watched the TV show you'd know he's sort of a big deal. Or he's something of a deal on the show. Now? Thirty years later? He's a poorly introduced villain that makes this comic feel more James Bond than Aquaman. And he's Mark Harris' Big Bad...

As Star Wars continues with its expanded universe, is Roy Thomas able to break from just putting sci-fi paint on a classic story-telling rope, or is this new story just going to be paint by numbers?

John Carter's battle with the "Air Pirates of Mars" continues as Marv Wolfman continues an original tale not adapted from any book.

Marvel's Classics Comics series featured a number of great works of literature, and in issue #31 they take on a foundational sci-fi work of space travel and alien life forms, The First Men in the Moon!

Another new series! This time, Marvel is bringing the prime time action series Man from Atlantis to life in a giant sized special #1 issue!

A new foe for the king of the monsters as Red Ronin jumps into action in Godzilla #7!

The Human Fly is still flying with "Fear in the Funhouse", the sixth issue in the exploits of the real life stunt man in the fictional Marvel universe.
