Catching Up on Marvel Unlimited
While I have sputtered in my coverage of the new releases from Marvel Unlimited, the service has continued to march on and released dozens if not a hudred new issues since I last posted their releases. So I figured it would be a good idea to find some highlights to bring to everyone’s attention.
The Rundown
First off, here are a few things of interest for today…
- Angels get a Rematch Tonight
While my Angels did not play yesterday, they face off against the team that swept them out of Texas tonight. Hopefully they will get some revenge and make the Rangers pay for that humiliation.
- A Couple of Ones
Yesterday in my Rambling Redshirt’s Gaming Madness tournament I was surprised to see two contests with a ONE rolled on the random number generator. These ONEs were not even of rolls that had a small maximum value as one has a top of 90 and the other had a top possible value of 95. Both got the lowest score though and we’ll see over the next couple of days if these contestants can survive rolling the dreaded ONE.
- Superman gets a Manager
Or does he? In Action Comics #6, we are introduced to Jimmy Olsen, get to see a bunch more of Lois, and we meet a guy who claims to be Superman’s manager. Of course, Clark is pretty skeptical that the guy is Superman’s manager but it is a pretty interesting sitution with marketing. billboards, and endorsments all going to pad this “manager’s” pockets.

A Look Back at Marvel Unlimited Releases
It’s been a while since I published my weekly Marvel Unlimited posts so I figured I should play a little catch-up. I ran into a lack of time when I have plumbing issues and all kinds of stuff going on about 2 months ago but I think I’m finally getting back on track and will begin publishign those psts again soon. In the meantime, I figure I should at lest provide some highlights from what I failed to cover…
