Informed Comic Book Speculation and Pop Culture News
This is the same spoilers we did a few weeks back for Web of Venom Wraith, which Marvel accidentally released digitally a little early. So here’s the spoilers again for you people who missed it originally and or were living under a rock around the time.
The issue gives us the connection between Wraith and Knull, as well as a look at Wraith’s origin. Is he a symbiote? Let’s check it out. Continue reading “Spoilers: Web of Venom: Wraith #1”
Welcome to this weeks spec and drek, where we pick the winners each week we think will be spec worthy, a great read or just cool looking art on the cover. I also dive into the pesky drek, the book you should probably avoid if you can or perhaps not invest so heavily into.
I normally do these picks for Monday’s but hey, being early never hurts right? It’s a bigger week for sure with a lot of potential reader and spec books.
The print run is going to be massive. There’s likely going to be a ton of store variants. So go with Cover A if you can’t decide or buy the cover you like most. But looking forward to this new series since I really enjoyed God Country (as I’m still severely behind in catching up on Redneck).

Welcome once again to my spec and my drek. I pick what I think will be winners, not only if you make money by flipping but winners as in either a great read or just awesome art.

Get those first appearance books ready! Yeah I know, there was like a billion of them likely printed in the early 90s from the Maximum Carnage story line and it’s a villain but could see an uptick in sales and value potentially.

As you all know, AgentPoyo is the alter ego of Anthony. That’s probably why you all like me more right? I kid, I kid. You can ask Mel or Blind Adam that I’m real cause they’ve met me if any of you had any doubts.
It’s that time again where I tell everyone who actually reads this on what is really grinding my gears this week, usually from the week prior as well. Anything and everything around the current week, I usually have something to grumble about or praise. I really do try to stay positive in my posts but that’s near impossible since we humans love dreading on the negative drama in life.
