Review
Happy Mother’s Day 2026! This year I thought it appropriate to break out my copy of Marvel Team-Up No.137 featuring the beloved Aunt May. As with any Marvel Comic featuring the Assistant Editors Month, there will be loads of satire, eye-rolls, and the breaking of the 4th Wall. This comic definitely does not disappoint.
Aunt May becomes the Herald of Galactus, but as you can imagine, it does not go as planned. There is a major focus on the fuel source for Galactus, and a mysterious new Cosmic entity who can supply such tasty, cream-filled delights. I will leave for you to find out. I give Aunt May a golden spongy three out of five stars.
