Review: Superior Spider-Man #7 – Dan Slott and Humberto Ramos
Dr. Elias Wirtham is a humanitarian about to re-open a free clinic to treat the city’s less fortunate. The re-christened H.E.A.R.T. Clinic (Hospital for Emergency Aid and Recuperative Therapy) is located in the building that formerly served as a front … Continue reading
