13 MARVEL TALES COVERS to Make You Feel Good

Just for fun…

Hey, it’s Groundhog Day! What better way to celebrate than by watching the Stephen Tobolowsky comedy classic Groundhog Day?

Well, OK, there’s that but you know another great way?

By checking out 13 COVERS of the best reprint title in comics history — Marvel Tales!

Get it? GET IT?

See, here’s why this is funny: Reprints REPEAT stories! NOW do you get it?

Sheesh, took you long enough. The things I do here to entertain you people.

Marvel Tales covers sometimes used multiple images, sometimes retooled old covers, sometimes repurposed old art, sometimes recolored previously published covers, or sometimes featured brand-new images. Or some combination thereof. You get the gist.

No matter what, these are a gas.

Just don’t drive angry. Or drop the groundhog.

  1. You were right. These made me happy. Especially the Electro one, that was my most prized possession when I was a kid.
