A few thoughts:

— The issue is due to ship May 20, 2020, but that’s subject to change a week or so either way. It will be available at comics shops, of course, but you can already pre-order it directly from TwoMorrows. Click here.

— In case you were wondering, RetroFan is going bi-monthly in March, with Issue #8. (Click here for more info.)

— Here at 13th Dimension, we often reveal new pubs from the likes of Marvel, DC and IDW, among others. Now, we’re doing the same with TwoMorrows. (We’ve been providing you EXCLUSIVE EXCERPTS from their mags and books for years now.) Dig it.

— Wanna see something cool from RetroFan #7? Yep, you do. Check out Michael Eury’s heartwarming recollection of getting his first Captain Action figure. Click here.
