WHO SAID THIRTEEN WAS UNLUCKY? MIGHTY MARVEL COVER GALLERY...

Okay, peeps, here's the latest instalment of the MWOM cover gallery, featuring all kinds of visual delights from 40 years ago - when we were all younger and more bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.  (Well, all of us over 40, obviously.)  Issue #32 in particular is one that rings a few bells for me, as I was on holiday in Blackpool in 1973 and saw it still sitting on a newsagents shelf about a month or so after its cover date.  (I'd already bought it back home on its day of sale.)

I remember considering buying it again, and I may well have done so - but for the life of me, no longer recall if I actually did or not.  Funny thing, memories, eh?  However, whenever I look at the cover nowadays, I associate it with Blackpool every bit as much as back home where I first acquired it.  Hopefully, a few recollections of your own first experience of the comic and its companions have been stirred upon seeing them again.

If so, feel free to share your reminiscences in the comments section.
