While looking through the March 1977 issue of Omega the Unknown yesterday in order to write about Jim Mooney, I came upon this blurb in the Bullpen Bulletins page that issue. It would have run in all Marvel Comics published that month, which meant you would have been reading this in December 1976 or January 1977, depending on the lead time off the cover date back then.

(And depending on whether you were born yet, as well. And if you’d been born, whether you were old enough to read. Yes, I’ve been married a long time.)

Considering the fact that I was the one who wrote the Bullpen Bulletins pages at the time (well, except for the Stan’s Soapbox section), I guess there was no way that announcement wouldn’t have been there!

And I also guess that considering Irene’s recent behavior (as I reported earlier), there’s no arguing with the fact that I seem to have made the right choice over 31 years ago!
