Marvel Comics Presents #99

 Wolverine has a very bad night's sleep in a single issue story that features Professor X.

Ghost Rider's 2-parter comes to a close. The last issue was set during the holidays. This chapter seems to have forgotten all that. 

That's pretty typical in comics. One issue is set during Christmas. Ends with a cliffhanger. And boom, next issue, all the decorations and holiday cheer are all gone. I wish I could wrap up my holiday set dressings that quickly.

Love seems to be in the air for the other two 8-pagers. Puck, the other diminutive member of Alpha Flight has his sights set on fellow Alpha Flight member, Heather Hudson. Here is Puck feeling all down on himself saying that Hudson can never love him. I'm thinking it's because he's short. It's actually because really he's like 100 years old and is only making himself look young thanks to his mutant abilities.

Then Peter Parker has trouble getting in touch with Mary Jane. This little tale is actually quirky and not a typical Marvel tale full of fisticuffs. It was an enjoyable capper to a very exciting issue.

Worth Consuming!

Rating: 9 out of 10 stars.
