I did one better then that, I cut the faces and costume parts out of some characters that they didnt make figures for and taped them onto action figures I didnt like so I would have more super heroes to play with. I still have an old 3-D Man comic that is cut all up.
No... Not me... But bargain bins are loaded with bronze age comics missing their value stamps. I believe these particilar stamps come from the Spidey Super stories comics. However... I have quite a few issues of that series and don't recall these stamps. Anybody know where they're from?
Comic publishers of the time never considered the human need to horde and collect. Comics were supposed to be read and disposed of in those by gone primitive days. Cutting subscription forms,coupons,pin ups and stamps out was an expected thing
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

That is genius actually Brothermidnight. I would have just begged my mom for another figure.
