HotKey Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I didnt see any topics like this from searching and I know I've seen several, so I thought a spot where we could all post and laugh at them might be some fun. I'll start it off with a couple: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Aldred Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) It’s the spherical ship on the cover, similar to the Death Star, being attacked by a group of small fighters, clearly Resistance. An easy mistake. The Enterprise is leaving in confusion, Kirk and the crew believing they’re in the wrong comic.

Turnando Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I loved the Sea Monkey ads when I was a kid. Just for kicks I did some googling to find out more about the guy who sold Sea Monkeys. Now that's a crazy story. There is no end to the creeps and weirdos in comic history. I usually like them for being different but this guy... no.
