Things got a little strange in Marvel Age #66, the special "Strange" issue with articles on Strange Tales, Doctor Strange, the graphic novel Someplace Strange, and that strange new super-hero, Speedball, all under a pretty cool cover by John Bolton.
This issue includes an extra-long Mutant Report, with articles on X-Terminators, Excalibur, Cloak and Dagger, and an interview with Ann Nocenti. Sadly, but not surprisingly, the article on Speedball doesn't have any quotes from artist Steve Ditko.
