Who remembers ROM....

[joe_collector]

Here's a strange set of ads, starting off with one I personally agree with, slapping that "Marvel Comics Group" logo right at the top. Some nice books in there as well.

Then not long after, Marvel changed their logo to something a lot different, and I think, far less effective.

This series started off extremely well, then disintegrated at about issue 5-6.

Vince, bite your tongue! I loved the Shroud when I was a kid. Don't burst my bubble.

And because greggy hasn't been such a tool lately:

Here here! I thought that a comic wasn't a comic if it didn't say "Marvel Comics Group" across the top!

Since Marvel seems to currently be going "APE", I thought this ad would be appropriate.

 

[Spider-Variant]

I greatly enjoyed this thread.

 

Thanks Vince and all that posted to it. A lot of work by all.

It's been a while, so...

Here's a couple of greggy's friend and yours, Jimmy Olsen...

That Jimmy Olsen cover is perhaps the best example of why Kirby in the BA was way off the reservation.

DC sure seemed happy to get him.

I love his design work on display in those ads. He never lost his talent for design -- Kirby-tech, Kirby-crackle, kinetic-Kirby & so on. Always high energy & fun costumes.

 

However, his figure work in the BA became so much an extension of his design mania talent that he'd have made Picasso & Braque blush.

Here's a few ultra-lame DC ads.

And if those didn't make you puke, here's a few more.

More lame DC Bronze...

If you're still here, this one will have you running.
