You're most welcome!
I thought I was the only one who read the New Defenders! Loved those Kevin Nowlan covers, especially the two issues with Manslaughter.
As excited as I was at the time about the launch of X-Factor, I was genuinely saddened by the way they ended the book, with the deaths of all the non-"X" members.
Of course, Marvel being Marvel, nobody
stayed dead, did they? Val, Moondragon, who CARES about that Eternal...
Did Isaac (the Gargoyle) ever come back? I may still have 152 around somewhere... I'll have to dig around for it.
