Out of the Vault


Out of the Vault is a look back at the comics that I’ve enjoyed (or not) over the past 45 years. Some articles cover entire series, while some feature individual issues in more depth. The feature started on my personal blog, They Stole Frazier’s Brain, and moved here in 2010. Here are links to every article dating back to April of 2008.
