Today Marvel comics is celebrating its 70th birthday. Marvel Comics 70th Birthday Party: 8/11/2009, 5:00pm at BOSCO'S Spenard - Anchorage Daily News http://marvel.com/
I honestly can't fathom why anyone buys the monthly pamphlets anymore. I just don't see the value,and that's not just Marvel,that goes for DC,IDW,Dark Horse,whatever. I just don't see the value,especially since a day after the final issue of the arc comes out,the arc will be available in a nice book that costs less than the 6 pamphlets did.
Happy Birthday marvel, and fuck you for your recent Epic Fails. Now die like a 70 year old should and let's start new.
I'd celebrate this, but I'm sure it'll soon be retconned so that Marvel has only been around for 20 years.
Happy Birthday to the best publisher on the market today! I'll forgive every Ultimatum if you keep giving me Ultimate Spider-Man.
