Killer books!  If only heritage hadn't beat me up and taken my lunch money.  and dinner money...

I've found that with the right seasoning, those HA packing peanuts can be surprisingly hearty.

I am not a fan of the bubble wrap however, a bit too dry.  However, there are times when a man must sacrifice.  usually when Church books are involved...

Even worse is everyone recycling them when packing recently. Just when you thought you’d seen the last of them...

Interesting, I wonder if this is where Marvel got the concept of relating Hydra to oppressive regimes from? Wikipedia says the name "Hydra" is an allusion to the mythical Lernaean Hydra, but that is a multi headed snake, whereas Marvel generally show a hexopus with a skull for a head.

Super interesting point! They reference the mythical creature, and growing two heads back in the same fashion, but use an octopus instead. I do think these books play a role in the image. The Stalin one has a very Hydra look to it.
