Marvel’s Mission: Impossible 90’s tie-in comic!
Thanks to our friend Steve Biscotti for this one you can check out Steve’s site Whatchareading.com
With the impending release of Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation (July 31), I had decided to pull out my copy of Marvel Presents Paramount Comics Mission: Impossible #1.
