It Came From An Old Comic Book
Haven't posted one of these for a while, so here you go:
From back when video game-to-movie adaptations sucked. Oh, wait, they still suck.
The retro tagline should be: Party of Five meets Iron Chef!Labels: ICFAOCB

It Came From An Old Comic Book
Are you sending $5 to some stranger, based on an ad you found in the back of a comic book?
Then I'm afraid the answer is no. No, you can't be cool.Labels: ICFAOCB

It Came From An Old Comic Book
InfoComics! Digital comics for your computer! Man, these guys were way ahead of their time, back in 1988.
Also, Lane Mastodon totally sounds like a porn star name.
And check out the technical requirements: it works on the Apple II and the Commodore 64/128. Sweet.Labels: ICFAOCB

It Came From An Old Comic Book
That's right, "exciting fashion news" and "muu muu" are used in the same sentence!
(Not sure what comic I scanned this out of...it may have been a Romance comic from the 70s)Labels: ICFAOCB

The Governator, back in simpler days when he could pinch all the female bottoms he wanted without getting into trouble.

It Came From an Old Comic Book
So some poor shmuck had the pleasure of opening letters full of people's hair clippings and matching them with a cheap fake beard. Ewww, how'd you like that job?

It Came From An Old Comic Book
Check out this awesome rant from the letters column of an old Marvel Fanfare, published back in 1984:
(from Marvel Fanfare #15, Jul. '84)
How dare that young punk sign his name Adams! What a cheap ploy to sell comics! Oh well, at least the guy acknowledged that "it was a good cover." By the way, here's the cover in question:

It Came From An Old Comic Book
I picked up a few stray issues of Marvel Fanfare at Mid-Ohio-Con, and they both had interesting letters/editorial pages that I wanted to share. First up, a discussion of race and comics with Jim Shooter, with a reference to an old Columbus-based comic convention!

Check out The Governator (TM) in his "hell-bent for leather 'n lead" bracelets! It "takes a man to wear them" alright. Priceless.
