Just when I thought that there would be no reason in the world why I would ever need to go to the post office or mail a letter, I find out that the US Postal Service is getting into the Super Hero market. As part of the 2007 Commemorative Stamp Program the US Postal Service is coming out with a Marvel Comics character stamp series.Characters included are
- Spider-Man
- The Incredible Hulk
- Sub-Mariner
- The Thing
- Captain America
- Silver Surfer
- Spider-Woman
- Iron Man
- Elektra
- Wolverine
- Amazing Spider-Man #1
- Incredible Hulk #1
- Sub-Mariner #1
- Fantastic Four #3
- Captain America #100
- Silver Surfer #1
- Marvel Spotlight #32 (Spider-Woman)
- Iron Man #1
- Daredevil #176 (Elektra)
- X-Men #1
About the only curious item is "X-Men" #1. Saunders notes it's the one from 1963. Thing is, we all know Wolverine wasn't in that issue.
Whatever. If you can get a stamp of the first X-Men comic and a stamp of Wolverine, so much the better.
I think is totally awesome that the Post Office is doing this, I just might have to start collecting stamps.
As a bit of old news, last July the Post Office came out with DC Comic stamp commemorative series.
