A Comic Show – Bombshells And Aliens
And while Aliens Vampirella #1 definitely gave the fan what they want, I'm pushing Aliens Salvation as probably the best Aliens comic ever made.

Secrets Of The Battleworld – The Bedroom Habits Of Ant-Man And The Wasp

However I am given to understand that in the House[...]
