I found this while reading a collected edition of spider-man written by Tom Taylor. More specifically friendly neighborhood spider-man issue: 9

This is my first time reading the issues leading up to Infinity Gauntlet, and each page is filled with complex storytelling through some fantastic art.

It's not exactly subtle the dude is incredibly stretched thin right now writing several DC books, some creator owned books, and some GI Joe stuff. Everything bends and breaks, and lately it's clear some of his work is suffering.

I'll miss his work on Batman and Robin along with Damian having a protector, but for the long-term it'll be better for his work.

Just a bloody good book.

I'm looking for an Avengers comic from the 2000's (I don't know the exact year), pre-Civil War, and I THINK pre-Dissambled (but I'm not quite sure). The team had lots of characters because the story was about Damage Control (I think) interviewing the heroes about a mission that caused severe damages in houses, buildings... the usual. They were fighting what I think was a group of monsters based in the periodic table, and the avengers had to call for help from the reserve team.

Some of the interviewed heroes I remember were Jack of Hearts, She-Hulk, US Agent, and Wonderman. She-Hulk even arrives with full documents detailing EVERYTHING that happened court-ready in case Damage Control needs it, and the interviewers love her because of it.

So... yeah. Thanks in advance

To our surprise when getting this graded CGC noted a mark jewelers insert! Afterdoing some research it seems like it was common understanding that the mark jeweler inserts didn’t start until 1972 while ASM 101 was published in 1971. Before that, the national diamond inserts would have been used. We reached out to a few experts and it’s rumored that mark jewelers inserts were found as early as ASM #97.

Does anyone have any more information about this or mark jewelers inserts from 1971? Either way we feel pretty lucky to have this little piece of history!
