This Valentine special features stories about Spider-man & Mary-Jane, Daredevil, Phoenix & Cyclops, as well as some villains like Absorbing Man and his bride, Titania. That one was probably the best story in the whole book. Absorbing Man is hiding out in a Pittsburgh suburb and sneaks out one day to buy a gift for his wife. Only he gets stuck in the middle of a heist in progress (and completely not his fault!) The hijinks in that story was crazy and completely unexpected. I like seeing things from the villain's POV at times and this adventure fits the bill.
There is also a story about 1950s heroine, Venus, the Greek (or is it Roman?) goddess of love. It’s an okay story. I don’t know that much about her. I just thought it was odd that her tale was drawn like an Archie comic.
Not a bad find for a dollar bin gem. Sadly, one of my cats got a hold of this book and ripped the cover. Oh, well.
Worth Consuming.
Rating: 7 out of 10 stars.
