Marvel Short #34 – Surprise Phone Call

Posted on April 20, 2022September 18, 2023 by phil.wrede
On the street, while eating a taco, Domino gets a call from Lt. Governor Gerber (named for comics writer Steve Gerber). He tells her that they've been doing some polling, and it looks like she might be a good candidate to run for mayor!

Welcome to PizzaRat dot Net, where I (Phil Wrede) post my toy comics!

The Idea
