Marvel comics stamps

If you haven't seen this offering from the USPS, you have to check it out. The limited edition, which Jennie kindly gave me as a gift, comes with a comic book and a set of 20 stamps. The images on the stamps are a mix of individual character portraits and classic Marvel comics. (I own every comic on a stamp, of course.) I can't say that I agree with all their choices--Black Widow would have been a win over Spider-Woman any day, for example--but the selections are at least defensible.

I have to admit that I haven't read the comic yet, because I haven't been able to make myself spoil the pristine package and open it. I'll probably have to buy myself a second set to read and to use.

I am such a geek.
