It’s a Spider-Christmas

I just realized that when I listed my Spidey presents from Christmas, I apparently missed three items. My very cool nephew Tony-o (who loves comics almost as much as his nearly famous uncle) gave me a totally cool heavy, black T-Shirt that is simply covered with a whole passel of Marvel Characters. Interestingly enough, I had actually seen this very same shirt (in apparently the very same store) but didn’t buy it, as, well, I really tend not to wear a lot of T-Shirts.

Needless to say, since Tony-o gave it to me, I’ll certainly wear it — and actually did so, yesterday! A second item that was given to me to Tony-o was an empty Diet Dr. Pepper can emblazoned with the Image of Spidey (The can is a licensing item from the second movie that he happened to come across somewhere).

Which brings up a point. One of these days, I'm going to have to start going through my old Spider-Man stuff and start cataloging it by snapping pics and posting them here on the site.

The third item is (if I’m understanding this correctly) a decorative button that is designed to be used on those goofy-looking, plastic “Crocs” shoes. And no, I don’t own a pair of the shoes, but it is Spidey,and My wife spotted it, so she felt (rightly so) that I’d want it. I do, and now I’m wearing it in a button hole on my shirt. Nifty, eh?

Hey Bob, thanks for swingin' by, you've a cool blog. (You must be a Spidey fan I take it). Where did you get that awesome Psychosis banner at the bottom of your page? Anyway, talk to you later.

The Banner is courtesy of someone from GWP (I forget who). I’ll send you the code, and you can pout it on your page too.

Awesome shirt!

It's extra awesome due to Spidey being positioned by two of his pals in the hero biz: Daredevil and The Human Torch.

Yeah, it is cool, too bad the pic doesn’t do it justice.

We’ve been reading comics since around 1961. It is — as we’ve often said — our preferred form of entertainment. In fact, the guy we’ve been ...
