RE: Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars - an "Exploring the Unlimited" Comic Book Review
Excellent review of this series. Never read it in full either despite it's placement in Marvel history (dat symbiote) and owning I think the full set. Looked like corny fun right from when I found out exactly what was going on and still intend to go back and enjoy this, and maybe sooner than later now after reading this review.
I'm glad the review encouraged you to read the series rather than discouraged! I wasn't sure if I was being a bit hard on it, but I do think it's important to distinguish between something being entertaining, vs. it actually being "good." Of course entertaining and good at the same time are the goal! Reading it will be time well spent to a comics aficionado like yourself. I would liken Secret Wars to a lot of golden age material, which in many cases was actually quite low quality, but has carved out a place in comics history and serves as an interesting reflection of the times it was created in.
