The Marvel Two-In-One
reprint for this story involves a team-up between The Thing and several of his
poker buddies. Nick Fury, Jarvis, Wonder Man, Carol Danvers, and the Beast all
guest star in this comic. That’s an impressive line-up.
I’ve read this one
before and yes, I was miffed that this series is nothing more than 4 reprints
of the Thing’s team-up comic in the 80s. But, I love this story. It’s zany and
extremely funny.
However, what could’ve
sent this issue over the top was along with reprinting this classic issue,
maybe Marvel could’ve included an all-new story involving another one of the
Thing’s poker nights going horribly wrong. Thankfully, in the recent years,
Marvel has learned to do this tactic instead of pulling a stunt that dupes
loyal fans into buying a bunch of reissues starring the ever lovin’ blue eyed
Thing under the guise of a new series.
Worth Consuming, but
only because the story reprinted is a classic!
Rating: 7 out of 10
