Win a ToysRUs Shopping Spree with Marvel Comics in 1980

It’s unfortunate that Marvel’s Rom: Spaceknight comics (find at Amazon.com*) have been locked away for decades. Legal issues have kept the world from seeing these in reprints (see Wikipedia), but maybe things will chase loose now that IDW has announced new ROM comic books.

Fortunately, the old comics aren’t impossible to find. While in New Mexico last week I picked up about ten ROM comics cheap (less than $1/each), and while flipping through them I found this great ToysRUs promotion from 1980. It’s too bad that the ToysRUs logo was damaged on the cover (missing letters is never great), but it’s cool to see that the promotion was such a big deal that it was advertised right on the front of the comic.
