United States Super Hero Postage Stamps

Maybe it's because my main Marvel reading years were the 80s and early 90s and they aren't really represented much here. Or maybe it's just because I'm such a major DC freak/geek/zombie/junkie, but the Marvel stamps that came out this year just don't excite me like the DC Stamps did. I have sheets and sheets of the DC stamps, and haven't even bothered to go the post office and pick up any of the Marvel ones.

...

Oh well.

  1. I think it's because whoever put together the Marvel stamps didn't give two shits about what images they chose. The Marvel ones are pretty dull. I didn't even know they were out until I was processing mail at work on Thursday and noticed one. The DC stamps are head and shoulders above the Marvel ones.

  2. I think you're probably right. The "dull" factor didn't cross my mind, but after you said it I saw it. I think that may be the problem. And seriously, look at the cover they chose for Elektra...wtf? That's kinda crappy.
