HERB TRIMPE In SUPER SPIDER-MAN...

Copyright MARVEL COMICS

In 1976 (wow, almost 40 years ago), NEIL TENNANT, before he found fame with The PET SHOP BOYS, was an editor at MARVEL U.K.  In issue #164 of SUPER SPIDER-MAN, he wrote a short article on HERB TRIMPE, and the following ish featured a centre-spread poster specially drawn by Herb exclusively for British fans. 

And in issue #226, we were treated to this HULK pin-up.

Now that Herb's gone, the work that he did for the British Marvel titles seems somehow more special.  After all, he did it for us.  Thanks, Herb.  Miss ya.

THERE'S A NEW MOON OVER MY SHOULDER...

Oh, all right then, here's another song from JIM REEVES

to pacify the huge demand for great, easy-listening music that'll

soothe and relax you right down to your tiny tootsies.

BABE Of The DAY - LINDSEY MARSHALL...

LYNDSEY MARSHALL reminds me

of a woman with whom I once had a brief

'liaison'.  Or maybe it was only a woman with

whom I wished I could've had a liaison, brief

or otherwise.  Either way, who can blame

me?  She's certainly a wee cracker!
