Title: Comics in the Media
Post by: troyfreund on July 21, 2010, 04:23:08 PM
Thought this thread could be a nice place to post stories/links that are about comics, but not found in typical places. 

Check out this series of images.  Kinda bizarre.  I love the Aquaman. :)

Glad you all enjoyed the photos from Marvel, circa 1993!
