I haven't seen the final product but I signed a contract with Marvel that they own my pictures for ever and ever, so they may see some reuse.

Definitely going to pick this up!

Seems like they've been around longer then 70 years

Wow, that's cool! I guess Marvel (Timely) officially started with Marvel Comics #1, the first official appearance of the Human Torch and Namor.

Getting into this is a major coup for the museum. Way to go Brian!

My favourite thing about this is that I snuck my childhood Hulk and Green Goblin into one of the shots they ended up using.

Has anyone seen this yet? I'm stuck where I am until mid afternoon.

Just picked it up. I hadn't seen this thread so I was kind of surprised to see the pics and read the quotes from you. How cool is that, to be called upon for some pics and quotes about Mego's contribution in an Anniversary Issue for Marvel? Alright, Brian!

Thanks, I got a copy on the weekend and I really liked how it turned out.

[UnderdogDJLSW]

I haven't seen this anywhere, yet. Would this be a comic book store or book seller item?

[palitoy]

I got mine at a comic store but I'll bet it'll be in the magazine section of book stores.

That is really cool Brian. I will be on the look out for this book. Congrats!
