Comic Book Stash 1/24/2026

 By Mark Rodriguez

As the cold starts setting in, we got several comics from a Hipcomic auction. I was hunting for a comic that Wendy brought up and that led to me finding it on a live auction for cheap, alongside other books. I got most of the comics I bid for and they were shipped just before any snow comes our way. Let's see what we got.

 

The Uncanny X-Men and Teen Titans # 1- Darkseid has taken control of the Phoenix, so the Teen Titans and the X-Men have to team up to save the world! This was the main comic that Wendy was looking for that led to today's mini-haul.

Kitty Pryde and Wolverine # 1, 4 and 5- A six-issue mini-series as Wolverine and Kitty Pryde head for Japan. Before X23 or Jubilee, Kitty was Wolverine's sidekick. I'll eventually track down issue 2, 3 and 6.

Batman # 454- This was the last issue of a 3-part story I never got to finish back when I was a kid in my Chicago days. In this one the Riddler had started a deadlier-than-usual series of riddles and Batman was out to stop him. Now I can finally read the conclusion a whole other lifetime later. I'll have to check if I already own issues 452 and 453.

Overall a cool mini-haul to add to the rest. Just this weekend alone we got 19 comics from Third Eye Comics, 10 comics from Alpha Comics and now 5 more from Hipcomic. It would have been 6 as I have also bid on Batman # 475 that dealt with the return of Scarface, but I was outbid and time ran out for me to try to outbid them. We're pretty much beyond set for this snowstorm now. Stocking up on food and supplies and winterizing the pipes kinda helps too.

AEW Women's Tag Team Cup Tournament The Deadly Draw- Final Match

 By Mark Rodriguez Alright guys, so this is the final match between the Women's Tag Tournament, the Deadly Draw meaning that teams were made at random depending on what color chips they would select out of a drawing. The final match was between the Nightmare Sisters, Brandi Rhodes and Allie against the team of Ivelisse and Diamante, and it was shown Saturday, rather than Wednesday due to the NBA Play-Offs. The Match- The Nightmare Sisters (with Dustin & QT Marshall) VS Diamante & Ivelisse Due to the time constraints, the NBA game finished a half hour later than expected and the TNT Championship match was following this, so there wasn't time for a lot of shenanigans. Things started between Ivelisse and Brandi who started off with an exchange of armlocks and headlocks. Ivelisse tags Diamante in and after both ladies kicked her down and picked her up for a double slam. Brandi managed to tag Allie in who would quickly kick Diamante down. Diamante gets Allie in an armbar and...

SNK VS Capcom Chaos Volume 1

By Mark Rodriguez We'll be seeing a few crossovers this month, and we're gonna start with one based on a crossover videogame. If you think the Malibu SF comic series was kinda sloppy, this one was literally all action, pin ups and splash pages, and what little story in it is just plain weird. I'm talking about the SNK VS Capcom Chaos comics made by Happy Comics, translated by Japan and produced with supervision from both SNK Playmore and Capcom. But first a brief explanation on the game this was inspired from. In 2000, Capcom produced Capcom VS SNK Millenium Fight 2000 which would throw the fighters of Capcom and SNK at each other. Unfortunately, aside from Morrigan from Darkstalkers and Nakoruru from Samurai Shodown, the game felt more like Street Fighter VS King of Fighters. Capcom later made Capcom VS SNK 2 Mark of the Millenium with even more characters and variety as well as different modes of play. SNK made their own game, SNK VS Capcom Chaos and it offered a bit more...

Arachna# 1 Review *Spoilers*

 By Mark Rodriguez Here's another awesome comic from independent artists that opened up an Indiegogo to get it started. I usually don't chip in unless it looks real good, like you just know they're gonna hit their goal. Arachna, a sexy superheroine with a split personality and an amazing art syle, sure looked like a good pick for me.  With lots of clever marketing in advance, even getting a person to dress as Arachna herself to bring the character to life, they hit their goal the same day they actually opened the Indiegogo for donations. I chipped in for the comic and the shirt, and here is my review on the latest superheroine that's bringing sexy back to comics, Arachna! Also note, while I'll try to keep my language as tame as I can, this book deals with way more adult stuff than I usually discuss on this blog. The Adventure Begins The issue opens with Jennie lying in bed naked in her apartment, a noticeable pile of sketches lying on the floor. She awakens to a voi...
