Jaime Hernandez — Love & Other Strange Tales Of Summer

“Love and the Space Phantom,” Strange Tales II #2, January 2011

Jaime Hernandez writing and drawing a light-hearted story with the women of Marvel? In their beach best? How did I miss this one?

Scott Eder broke up the originals to the complete short story back in this past Spring and I happened to see it just as it became available.

All the pages are fun, and the cover (with the goofy supervillains lurking in the background) is naturally terrific —and priced accordingly — but I think I did pretty well with this great one-of-a-kind splash.

Extra dividend: The published story features spot-on coloring by the uber-talented Laura Allred.
