Just because I like the cover.  There.  Who says intros have to be long-winded?  Although, while I'm here, I might as well tell you all that the vast majority of this blog's all-time visits now hail from the States, so give yourselves a pat on the back, American readers, as you obviously have rare taste and discernment.

I've had this book for almost a week, so I've been remiss in not posting about it before now.  The AVENGERS EPIC COLLECTION Volume 3 is - well, epic.  Just take a look at the goodies contained therein on the back cover below, then pop into your nearest comics shop and buy a copy for yourself.  It's MARVEL's Avengers at their mightiest!

"If you knew SUSIE like I know Susie..."

I'd be very unhappy, 'cos I thought she was

faithful to me.  What's that?  She's married to

REED RICHARDS?  Nah, that's a SKRULL

name is ERIC!  Poor ol' Reed, eh?)

"Infamy, infamy!  They've all got it in for me!" cried KENNETH WILLIAMS in one of the CARRY ON films.  DOCTOR DOOM seems to suffer from the same persecution complex, often wondering why people appear to have it in for him.  Something to do with trying to kill The FANTASTIC FOUR and take over the world perhaps, Doomsy?  That certainly isn't likely to win you any friends.

BABE Of The DAY - LESLIE BIANCHINI...

Lovely LESLIE BIANCHINI gazes at

me adoringly, and who can blame her?  After

 all, I'm completely adorable.  (Yes I am!)
