I can hear Dan Akroyd's SNL character, "Irwin Mainway"....."Repackage them all as The Human Torch. It's a "feature" not a bug."

I had so many Underroos of DC, Marvel and movie/TV time they were just part of my wardrobe back in the 70's. They never caught fire but then I wore them till in picture wore off
