MTU 3


And the right-hand side...

MTU #48 - the one third from the end of the middle row - is one of my favourite comicbooks from childhood. It's the first part of a four-parter and a really classic tale with a creepy ending. I missed the next part - ah, the unreliable '70s - and it was years before I found out how Spidey got out of the scrape he was in at the end of that issue. Anyone interested in dipping into '70s comics could do much worse than to start here.

October Display: Marvel Team-Up cont.


Being a bit softy, I included a Warlock team-up for me and appearances of Captain Britain, Man-Thing, Sons of the Tiger and Thor for Bagman F.F.F., Ted, Bob and Thor8.

And a busty uber-babe in the form of Red Sonja for Deadpool. That comic is set on my 11th birthday, incidentally. Always thought that was cool!

Marvel Team-Up display


October's Display is... Marvel Team-Up. The only US original you could get with anything like monthly regularity in 1970s Paisley.

Re-arrangement


The Classic Marvel Figurine Collection characters were prevously displayed along the edges of these shelves. I moved them all up to the top. It's pretty cluttered up there now, but I quite like how clear the other shelves now look.

Not sure if it's better or not...
