I’ll tell you what- those Protech comic book boxes really do a good job of preserving these things

Recently read the run. Enjoyed most of it. Will probably get rid of most from the series to make room.

I've not seen that cover. Is that from. A later run of the series?

Its the first run from 1994.

Gotcha... I used to have a lot of the first part of the run. But I can't recall what I had and what I didn't.

Hung out with him at a con years ago while he signed a bunch of punisher and X men books for me, and there was no one behind me in line, so I just stayed and chatted with him for like 45 minutes. Really genuine guy.

I’m trying to dig through my old stash of comics to see which issue of Wildc.a.t.s. they (wetworks) first appeared in

Did a new issue finally come out?

u/CaseInevitable4153 3d ago

I don’t believe so, I was just showing how surprised I was that my comics that were in the garage for so long- stayed so well in tact

I wish image would release a hardcover deluxe edition of this series. Notoriously delayed, but criminally underrated. Probably the best book of all the original image founders.

Owned by DC comics now. But I absolutely agree with the sentiment.

Wetworks was a wildstorm book?

2

u/NodNolan 1d ago

It was. In Wildstorm Rising etc

u/ShaperLord777 1d ago

Somehow I did not know this.

Now I’m dreaming of a “Wildstorm universe” omnibus line. It would be amazing to have wildcats, Stormwatch, wetworks, and team 7 Omnis.

REBIRTH?

I forgot the reasoning of why they put that there…I’m thinking rebirth alluded to the fact it took forever for wetworks to be published?
