Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #45
In a surreal twist on a school outing, the Scarlet Witch leads a group of children on a tour of the Avengers Mansion, where they encounter Iron Man, Kang, and Falcon, while Captain America shares wartime tales that take a darker turn—revealing a Swiss village he razed, the death of Private Ryan, and Bucky’s tragic end. As the tour continues, the truth behind Thor’s past emerges, and Captain America retreats upstairs, where he keeps Bettie Page chained to a wall. Written by Pat McCallum, Tom Root, and Douglas Goldstein, with art, inks, and colors by Paul Schiraldi, this issue blends pop culture nostalgia with unsettling revelations.
