All-Star Western #7 – Review

Posted on April 3, 2012 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Too many to list—check out the review. The Story: Well, if you’re going for a name change, “Scarface” is nothing if not apt.

By: Jimmy Palmiotti & Justin Gray (writer), Moritat (artist), Gabriel Bautista (colorist), Phil Winslade (feature artist), Dominic Regan (feature colorist) The Story: Instead of seeing the situation as a death trap, Arkham, consider it an adventure!
