That covers the releases for July 1993.  Overall a great second month for the fledgling Ultraverse.  Once again, I do not have the issue of Ultra Monthly, as I said before, once I eventually obtain copies of these books, I will post about them as well.  Hopefully, I will fall into a more consistent posting pattern with these.  I will be experimenting with a way to keep them coming at a regular pace...at least I hope.

What's in store for the next months worth of books?  Month three of the Ultraverse:

Two more launches in Prototype and Exiles, and the continuations of the 5 other series in the lineup.
