Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #14

In a delightfully absurd twist, Spider-Man and Thor find their suburban peace disrupted when the Borg move in next door—only to start assimilating everything in sight, from Thor himself to Spider-Man’s barbecue and car. When the hero tries to reclaim his belongings, the Borg escalate, expanding their yard, stealing his cable, and turning his home into a hive of assimilation. With a clever mix of humor and superhero chaos, he outsmarts them by tagging them with Beanie Baby labels, leading a group of girls to cart them off—leaving the neighborhood (and the reader) utterly bewildered. Written by Pat McCallum, Tom Root, and Douglas Goldstein, and illustrated with vibrant, chaotic energy by Paul Schiraldi, this playful crossover blends sci-fi parody with classic Marvel flair.
