Behind the Panels Issue 76 – Revival

In this issue, a comics collector in Brazil had his stash stolen. We know from experience that Brazilian jobs are the most painful. THEN, we get our first look at the Captain America: The Winter Soldier trailer. It’s about a returned US soldier unable to find affordable housing. PLUS our kick-ass Pick of the Week, Revival by Tim Seeley and Mike Norton.
