Marvel Superheroes Secret Wars UK

 This little card thing was nestled in the pages of Marvel UK's Secret Wars comic #1. I seem to recall it was included with a few, if not all the Marvel publications that month. The reverse is blank/grey. 

ads from Marvel Age

 I was skimming through some old issues of Marvel Age, and scanned a handful of ads I liked.

New Mutants ad

 In-house ad for New Mutants. I scanned this in from Rom Spaceknight #58 if I recall.

Elektra Assassin

 Elektra: Assassin promotional poster thing by Bill Sienkiewicz, I think this was advertising the final issue of the 1986 mini series.

FOOM #2

I recently picked up FOOM #2 and absolutely love these slightly misaligned printing plates.

 

X-Force hate mail

In 2001, the new Editor in Chief at Marvel, Joe Quesada gave a few titles a bit of a facelift, including several of the X-Men titles. One of these was X-Force, which Pete Milligan and Mike Allred took over pretty abruptly on #116. It lasted until #129, at which point the series was cancelled/rebooted/restarted as X-Statix. Here are some letters published in various issues after #116, from some irate readers at the time, who were less than appreciative of the overhaul.

Almost as if you're trying to sell something, Spidey.  From Questprobe #2 (Jan 1985).

Deadly Hands of colouring

I picked up an old copy of Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #22, only to discover someone had skilfully coloured in the first page.
