This week's T-shirt Thursday spotlight is the Stranger Things Hellfire Club Holiday T-shirt that features a demon wearing Santa's hat. The Hellfire Club is the high school's Dungeons & Dragon's club on the Netflix series. While there was a gentlemen's club in the 18th Century with the same name, Marvel's Hellfire Club debuted in The Uncanny X-Men #129 (January 1980). You can purchase a Stranger Things Hellfire Club Holiday T-shirt at Amazon here. (This is a sponsored post).
Sad news according to An ‘X-Men' Legend Has Died: Jackson Guice Was 63. He co-created Apocalypse for Marvel and Resurrection Man for DC Comics. The artist also did work for several independent comic companies.
Marvel Holiday Tales to Astonish #1 came out yesterday. The cover features Storm, Captain America (the Sam Wilson version), Spider-Man (the Miles Morales version), Kitty Pryde, Doctor Strange, Wolverine, Ben Grimm and Spider-Man (the Peter Parker version). The three stories include the Fantastic Four in "'Twas the Fight Before Christmas", the Uncanny X-Men in "Festival of Fights" and the Spectacular Spider-Men in "Resolutions". Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman and the Human Torch does appear in the Fantastic Four story along with the Thing. Several other Marvel superheroes appear briefly in the first two stories. Shame that none of the stories are centered around Captain America (the Sam Wilson version) or Doctor Strange like the cover suggests. At least, Storm and Wolverine appear more in the X-Men story that is about Kitty Pryde trying to find gifts for her friends.
Yes, you too can now smell like Wolverine with Adamantium Scrub from Dr. Squatch. The gritty soap is supposed to smell like berserker rage. This should have been available during this summer's comic conventions so everybody would be smelling like cypress, juniper and moss. Click on the link below for more information, bub.
I missed Marvel's X-Men Red #1 last month but Storm plays a major part in the series. The second issue came out today and the series is basically about what happens after the X-men terraform Mars. The first issue's cover features Storm, Magneto and Sunspot while the second issue's cover features Storm and Vulcan. The first issue also features a hot shot of Storm on page 34. Appologies for having the images reversed for somehow I lost the ability to copy and paste the code while editing the html.
