Does Whatever a Spidey Can
Looking forward to this book’s release on July 21.
Colbert & Peanuts & Ben & Jerry
Last week the upshot of Stephen Colbert’s parting shot at CBS, involving Peanuts, was revealed.
I’m glad that’s settled, but what about my very favorite ice cream, Americone Dream, which contains no peanuts?
Oooooo … new patriotic packaging!
Green Theme
I posted about the green reflecting pool water and Trump wanting to acquire Greenland. Tonight I’ll hear Booker T. Jones performing his hit ‘Green Onions’.
Why stop there? Here are all 13 of the 1966 cartoons starring everybody’s favorite green-skinned marvel.
Cover Charge
In 2009, original comic book art dealer Mike “Romitaman” Burkey offered this page to me for only $35,000. It’s the cover to Tales of Suspense #93, the first issue of that title I bought as a kid.

The timing for such an expensive investment wasn’t good, however, as I would soon be facing college expenses. So, I had to decline the offer.
What is the piece worth today? I said “only” $35,000, because on May 8 it sold on Heritage Auctions for $90,625.
