Fun to read if youre in the mood for a comic with a Silver or Gold Age feel to it.

Still not a fan of the Sentry because still dont believe the amount of truth with his origins, so far. Basically this feels like a fun What If story; so, may not finish the mini 'cuz not interested in non-616 as a rule. In the meantime, here's a scene from the issue made into a banner submission:

Dislike the possibilities of RETCONTAMINATION! It works fine for Sentry, himself, but not sure its fair to the established Marvel heroes canon in some ways. Especially with the promise of the likes of Reed and Fury showing up. Thankfully this deceptively interesting and intentionally evasive podcast, w/Jeff Parker, implies this Golden Age stuff 'never really' existed:

Also did not care with the '2nd cover blurb' calling them Rick Jones and the Tough Kids if they meant Rick Jones and the Teen Brigade.

Not familiar with his published origin scenes to date but reeeally hope the moustached man is NOT Stark.

Dont feel this was the place/way to reveal the (possible) name of Mad Thinker as Jose Santini. Its one of several reveered Marvel mystery monickers that should not be revealed as a casual throwaway line (by Phineas Mason no less).

Not a fan of just throwing in more, AFAIK new, generic alien races into Earths past like Gorax and Torr. There are already plenty of unexplored, yet existing, races that should logically get a second showing first.

The tradition of comic book pseudo-science was successfully skewed and silly for some wild imagination fun in these 2 tales told. Cool Cranio's tag line about being 3 steps ahead of the hero was very cute - lets see him go up against Quicksilver!

Rest of that page:
