| Here we go again, why give this comic book a low rating? It should be a 10. The Avenger is a great cold war super Hero. Please if you don't know comics don't rate it! |
|
| First saw these stories in an IW reprint, great artwork from Dick Ayers, I'll give it a 10! |
|
|
|
| Isn't it kind of odd to have someone who is fighting the Red Menace wear a red costume? |
