More Frank Robbins! Noooooo.....OK...Seriousl...Ugh! More Frank Robbins! Noooooo.....<BR/><BR/>OK...Seriously....I actually bought each and every one of these, though the exact same thought ran through my head as it did Groovy's: Where was The Sub-Mariner during all of this? When "Man From Atlantis" debuted on TV, my first thought was "It's a Subby Rip Off!!". Of course, many of my non-comic reading classmates had no idea what the heck I was talking about.<BR/><BR/>I also remember the portly villian in this TV series reminding me of the Kingpin and/or Sidney Greenstreet.<BR/><BR/>I anxiously awaited a meeting between MFA and Namor — which of course never happened. <BR/><BR/>But wow....I really was buying anything and everything in those days, wasn't I?Chris Nyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04381409214303880118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-89557219053261201242009-03-01T18:13:00.000-05:002009-03-01T18:13:00.000-05:00Awww ...
