After a lot of teasing and hints, we finally get the guest star a lot of us have been waiting for. She-Hulk’s “Ribbit and Rip It,” is the first live action appearance of Leapfrog, but no, that’s not what got so many of us excited.
“Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” both gives us the return of several heroes, the arguable debut of another one, and the theatrical debut of a major new villain: Kang the Conqueror.
Usually, when I review a comic book issue, it’s because it was particularly good. Sometimes, there are exceptions. This is one of those times, but it comes with a story.
