      Lady Action solo special is a must have. Phantom Ghost Who Walks and Domino Lady as well.

      Where is Captain Action?

        Hey Michael=
        Thanks for the “were is Captain Action” comment. we’re not on that month- but we will have Lady Action #1 out then. Should be a blast – and both covers are strong, as you can see.

        Tomorrow Captain Action #5 comes out – and we just got contacted by a staffer on the VP’s office. It’s pretty cool to be noticed!
        Hope you like the new issue.
        Let me know how you like it.
        Best,
        -Ed
