I’ve mentioned stupid superhero comic covers before
I’ve mentioned stupid superhero comic covers before, but I have to mention another classically dumb one, from the 1970s, when Marvel Comics had grasped there was such a thing as feminism, without having fully got to grips with its subtleties. Ms Marvel was created as a modern feminist superheroine. Her first issue had her fighting old Spider-Man villain the Scorpion. Her rather confused words on that cover were “Give it up Scorpion! You’re not man enough to beat Ms Marvel!” Magnificent.
Hi, Great blog BTW! See my new Marvel Apes fan site!
