GlennHOST
Oh, okay.
BrandonHOST
But there's also somewhat interesting, the Marvel Comics Presents Omnibus Volume 1 hardcover, including the first 25 issues of that anthology series.
BrandonHOST
I don't know how, I mean, this is pretty hit and miss, and I think you can get most of these issues pretty cheap.
BrandonHOST
I don't know if this is really worthy of being on an omnibus.
ZachHOST
That's part of the problem.
ZachHOST
Can I ask you one thing on this that I was thinking? Does this almost feel like it was a repurposed Marvel Comics Presents story? And in Marvel fanfare fashion, they were like, oh, we got to get rid of these.
ZachHOST
We just got to print them.
AdamHOST
I mean, that very well could be, um, given the sort of quality of the artwork, the, the story is very, it could be chapterized fairly easily, you know, like you could put like a tune in next month to see what happens.
Mike LawrenceHOST
Yes, he did.
Mike LawrenceHOST
Well, you know, so he first, uh, appears in, um, Marvel Comics Presents was that anthology, uh, series that would have four eight-page stories.
Jake YoungHOST
Mm-hmm.
Mike LawrenceHOST
Sam Keith was doing a lot of the Wolverine ones at the time.
Chad AndersonHOST
And then there's a really great series called Blaze of Glory, which is a modern retelling of old stories.
Chad AndersonHOST
And then we also see him in a Western parody in Marvel Comics Presents once.
Chad AndersonHOST
But the fact that she's a descendant of an actual Marvel cowboy is an excellent part of this character.
Chad AndersonHOST
And then they fight Professor Salvage.
Rob LarsonHOST
Another one I had a hard time with was Weapon X.
Rob LarsonHOST
So Barry Windsor Smith, the covers to Marvel Comics Presents.
Rob LarsonHOST
I think that there are three or four that are iconic Wolverine images, but I couldn't pick one.
Rob LarsonHOST
And I don't know.
Rob LarsonHOST
What do you think? Are any of them million dollar covers? Marvel Comics Presents covers? And which one is the best? Like which one would you choose? Because I couldn't do it.
Rob LarsonHOST
I couldn't do it.
Rob LarsonHOST
They're just so good.
Derek FaraciHOST
All the time.
Derek FaraciHOST
When? On the Marvel Comics Presents.
Derek FaraciHOST
There's a Wolverine Hulk miniseries he wrote and drew.
Derek FaraciHOST
Okay.
J.A. ScottHOST
This one out of Marvel in the 80s and 90s under Tom DeFalco.
J.A. ScottHOST
And it is Marvel Comics Presents.
J.A. ScottHOST
had a lot of wolverine because the sales department said oh when we put wolverine in one of the stories it sells a lot of books that's where the weapon x the barry windsor smith weapon x was originally in marvel comics presents but it wasn't just a wolverine story so if you're getting the trades often they just give you the a story but each issue would have a b story a c story and a d story so for example in issue one you had a wolverine story That ran over several issues.
J.A. ScottHOST
But then you also had a Man-Thing story.
J.A. ScottHOST
You had a Shang-Chi story.
J.A. ScottHOST
Or you had a Thing story.
J.A. ScottHOST
So it was the best of... combining a bunch of characters that maybe they some of them were in their own story some of them were in in bigger books like the x-men and often getting writers or artists that were new to comics stated previously done other things but they were in either new to marvel or they were unpublished in the comics field.
J.A. ScottHOST
So Tom DeFalco really brought these people in and let them explore on Marvel Comics Presents.
Jin HanGUEST
But, um, when it comes to the, the people I'm constantly chasing, uh, is Travis, uh, Bill Sienkiewicz.
Jin HanGUEST
Um, Barry Windsor-Smith is tough because his work, uh, during the Marvel Comics Presents era when he was doing his Opus, uh, art books-
JamesHOST
Yeah
Jin HanGUEST
... those are the things that are just stunning to me.
Jin HanGUEST
When you talk about evolution as an artist, so beautiful the way that he spots his, he spots his blacks, the way that he follows the contours of the lines when he's doing his crosshatching.
Jin HanGUEST
I mean, just beautiful.
Jin HanGUEST
When you see what he did from Conan up until Marvel Comics Presents, it's such a huge jump.
JamesHOST
Huge.
Scott KolinsGUEST
Um, but it had two things.
Scott KolinsGUEST
One was, uh, right across the hall from our office, uh, in the Rimiter Raider office, was Terry Kavanagh, who had, um, Excalibur, Marvel Comics Presents, um, and a slew of other, uh, books that he was working on.
Scott KolinsGUEST
Um, one of my like, I don't know, my third, fourth, fifth job for Marvel at that time was I had done a pin-up just for fun, um, but again, to show off what I could do, whatever, that had Captain America fighting Master Man, if you, anybody remembers him, the old, uh, World War II villain.
Scott KolinsGUEST
He's kind of like an anti-Captain America, uh, super soldier type.
Jake Lloyd BaconHOST
Okay, wait.
Coy JandreauHOST

Jake Lloyd BaconHOST
