Topps Sticker - 1975

sgThis part of a huge line of Marvel character stickers that Topps produced in 1975. I remember having nearly the whole set; each Marvel hero and villain had some funny phrase, as well (DC never would've done that; they took themselves way more seriously than Marvel did).

Although, when you come to think about it, this phrase isn't funny at all. It's actually a completely reasonable statement; and something you easily could picture Namor saying.

A very funny April Fool's Day joke. Thanks it made my morning. I remember the stickers. I kept some of my comic books in a metal filing cabinet back then. I put those stickers all over it. My favorite was in a dramatic stance with his hands outstreached and saying "Stop me if you've heard this before."

(I reposted this comment as I left out the name Adam Warlock before and it made no sense without it.)

I was wondering if, and how, you were going to celebrate this particular holiday. Brilliant, Rob. Simply brilliant.
