Hello, everyone! Unfortunately, Loki is keeping me from my collection for the next couple weeks, so Iโ€™m not going to be able to do my spotlights or #Thorsday posts until then. Iโ€™ll pop in for chats and reposts, though. But Iโ€™ll come back in a couple weeks with a doozy!

๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† They really had a lot of fun with comics in the 60s, that I think they have forgotten nowadays. Not saying theyโ€™re not fun, but just donโ€™t have that same kitschy flare.

For me, thatโ€™s a lot of the fun of the game. I used to like watching Shaq dominate.

Fantastic Four 90 (Sept 1969) cover by Jack Kirby/Joe Sinnott. This is the start of Kirbyโ€™s last multi-issue epic during his FF run (it was single issue stories afterward) and itโ€™s a good one as The Thing is kidnapped by a Skrull and sold as a slave. And only one splash this issue, the opening page.

Oh, no! I love Shell-head, I guess Iโ€™ll have to find another superhero to follow! I love how characters and teams were constantly โ€œdyingโ€ in the 60s. Final battle, this is the end, no more!๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Truth! Doesnโ€™t that look weird? They really gave him a goonish run in this. But I guess heโ€™s not the god of running for a reason.

So true! College to NBA, basketball has been getting my attention this year. I like the three-point game, but I like the inside game more. Iโ€™m a 90s basketball kid.

Lugosi's skid row films get a rough ride but I'm just thankful there's a legacy at all. Threadbare and endearingly barmy. And it's Lugosi. 1943.

Yeah, that seems like the likely finals. Iโ€™m glad weโ€™re getting some good games here. Itโ€™s funny how into hoops Iโ€™m getting this year. You donโ€™t understand how one-sport a guy I was.

Isnโ€™t that a great onomatopoeia? Perfect value add.

This is Action Comics issue 480 page 8 (1978) by Curt Swan and Frank Chiaramante. Hawkman and Green Lantern are stuck in the JLA satellite fixing extensive damage from the rampaging Amazo Android. Superman was knocked straight out of the satellite into the ocean, but in typical Superman style, he bounces back with panache. Dolphins! He burst out of the ocean in a pod of dolphins, totally ready for summer. Sorry, Lantern and Hawk, you guys are stuck on space duty, no beach for you!

Daily 60s read. Unicorn is dying but Red Ghost makes him believe his injection will keep him alive. Forcing him to steal Stark's cosmic ray emitter so he can get his power back and create a super simian army. His originals were put down by the Soviets after he defected.
