I've really been into LEGO superheroes as of late, and the new Godzilla minifig immediately suggest the Lizard to me, so I put together this little vignette with Spidey in the sewer:

I love old coloring books, but I especially love old superhero coloring books. And the goofier they are the better!
Take this 1983 Fantastic Four vs. The Frightful Four for example:

You've got to love the Hulk magazine that The Thing is reading, but my favorite parts are the photos of Dr. Doom and The Mole Man (?) on the wall.

You'd think that a guy who can light himself on fire and fly would get enough thrills, but apparently he needs a fast car too. With flames on it no less! Hee-hee!

And what excitable boy doesn't want to color breakfast!? WOO! Pancakes to power! Toast to speed!
Aren't those fun!? Anyway, feel free to click here and download a PDF of the whole thing.

I love how much fun and simple this is, but I bet Tony Stark is steamed! (Get it?! Steamed? Ha-ha-ha... Oh...)

A while ago I had the good fortune to pick up on Ebay a group of four superhero merchandise catalogs from the 70's, so this month I'll be featuring one every Thursday.
OK, here's a few samples from the very first one from 1975, and click here to download the PDF of the whole thing. Enjoy!
