The issue was published on 22 February 2006 as part of All New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z, with Big Wheel providing the clearest point of entry. Its premise connects Golden Age Black with questions of discovery and technology. That combination gives the opening a purpose beyond simply announcing another adventure.

The script credited to Madison Carter and Ronald Byrd favours clear movement and sharply defined dramatic turns.
