Here is a list of all the comics that will be free this Cinco de Mayo. The one I'm looking foward to the most is The Unseen Peanuts Book.

2SWM Searching for a Family

| | Comments (2)

Another teaser cover released by Marvel. Seems that Johnny and Ben are looking for some new friends. Michael Turner also found his favorite character to draw; Ego (the living planet), because that motherfucka ain't got no feet! As a matter of fact the only person on this cover with a fucked up lookin' foot is Stardust, whom I thought was dead.
