Kick-started this game a while back, and it arrived today, completely taking me by surprise.
This is a board game where you compete with the other players to see who is the best at running a comic book publishing company in the Golden Age! You hire talent, put out books and try to be the most successful shop. Sounds like a lot of fun, but that remains to be seen.
Anybody else back this game, or has already played?

This MTU 141 notation is wrong, and the notations for ASM 252 and PPTSSM 90 are also wrong and add to fandom's general confusion about the black suit early releases.
This book is listed as tying with ASM 252, but that is incorrect. I remember buying ASM 252 first when it came out. MTU 141 and SSM 90 came out the same month, but not the same day or week as 252. I can't remember for sure, but I think those others came out on the same day together, but after 252. MTU and SSM 90 could mention that they tie for 2nd black suit appearance, but ASM 252 should have that honor all to itself.
Go collect verifies my memory on this topic with a blurb: "This week, we see Marvel Team-Up #141 making waves as it broke into the top 100 best sellers. Released days after Amazing Spider-Man #252, MTU #141 is tied with Spectacular Spider-Man #90 for the second overall appearance of the black suit that would later become Venom".
Anybody have the exact release dates for these books?
Edit: The release dates on some Go collect reference pages for these issues are wrong. They list dates in April and May which make no sense for books with a cover date of May.
Looked up the exact release dates of these 3 books on mikesamazingworld.com and they reflect what I remember from childhood when I bought them:
ASM 252 - January 31 1984
MTU 141 - February 14 1984
SSM 90 - February 14 1984
Here is another site that verifies those same release dates:
http://www.kleefeldoncomics.com/2022/07/irl-chronology-of-spideys-black-suit.html?m=1
So, Spidey 252 was first all by itself. That label should be corrected to reflect that.
MTU 141 and SSM 90 came out 2 weeks later on the same day. Both of those labels should be corrected to say: Ties for 2nd black suit appearance with...
It is disappointing that the chronology around such an important event in Marvel history is flat out wrong on all 3 of these labels. Hopefully they can be corrected going forward.

Those are on the slip cover that goes around the main box. Yeah, I agree they did a great job there of creating some believable GA covers!
