Wizard / Marvel comics
Posted: Sat Mar 25, 2017 4:20 am
Back in the free-wheeling late ’90s and early 2000s, Wizard put out a bunch of comic specials usually but not always numbered “#½” for Marvel (and a number of publishers). After a bit of poking around I’ve put together this list:
Avengers #0
Blade #½
Captain Marvel #0
Daredevil #½
Deadpool #0
Earth X #½
Fantastic Four #½
Gambit #½
Generation X #½
Ghost Rider #½
Heroes Reborn #½
Hulk #½
Iron Man #½
New Warriors #0
Prime #½
Silver Surfer #½
Silver Surfer/Witchblade #½
Slingers #0
Spider-Girl #½
Spider-Man #½
Spider-Man Unlimited #½
Thunderbolts #0
Ultimate Spider-Man #½
Ultimate X-Men #½
Weapon X #½
Wild Thing #0
Wolverine #½
X-51 #0
X-Men #½
As far as I can tell, most of these are already in the MCP, but these are not:
Deadpool #0
Fantastic Four #½
Gambit #½ (partial?)
Silver Surfer #½
Silver Surfer/Witchblade #½ (maybe?)
Spider-Man #½
Spider-Man Unlimited #½ (the cartoon)
What is Silver Surfer/Witchblade #½? Is it a preview of that Devil’s Reign crossover, a part of it, a sketchbook thing, or what? Is this the Silver Surfer/Witchblade comic that’s already in the MCP, or something different?
I see a Gambit #½ is listed in the MCP, but only for one character, and that character is -BTS. It looks like this one didn’t get fully added into the MCP, but to be fair, I haven’t actually flipped through the comic yet.
None of Spider-Man Unlimited (volume 2, the cartoon one) is in the MCP, so this is no surprise.
Am I missing anything? Yeah, there was an X-Men one that previewed the first few pages of Grant Morrison’s New X-Men run, a reprint of Alex Ross’ first published Marvel work from Open Space, some sketchbook stuff for Paradise X, etc., but I’m just looking at original content here.
Thanks!
